Splotches

I am not a fan of Tuesday Vargas but I do like her acting in Here Comes The Bride. She can be really funny without trying to. I was reading PEP.ph when I saw the link to her wedding video. I watched it out of curiosity and boy, did I loved it!

Tuesday got married to Coy Placido of Session Road band. They’ve been together for years before they tied the knot at the Discovery Shores in Boracay. They created their own vows and Tuesday’s vow was so darn funny! Watch the video below…

Did you like it? The songs used were so apt for the video. I really like how they made their wedding entertaining for everyone. Imagine injecting humor into your wedding vow and making your guests laugh and cry at the same time! Weddings should be like this, don’t you think?

I was browsing PEP.ph when I saw the wedding photos of Ciara Sotto. She is now an Oconer. Her husband is said to be Jojo Oconer, an executive of TAPE, Inc. When I saw the photo of her husband, well, I just knew right away that he is way older than her. He looks mature already. That might be a plus considering according to Ciara’s mom, Helen Gamboa, she was the baby of the family.

Someone mature might be best for someone in her ’20s and still considered a baby by her family.

I admit it, I love reading gossip columns! Who doesn’t? My day isn’t complete without reading PEP.ph or the Philstar column of Ricky Lo. I usually read it in the early morning. What a gossip, I know!

So the raging topic among columnists right now is the Willie Revillame-Wowowee issue. I didn’t care about that issue until I read that Willie’s earning close to 25 million pesos a month! And he’s so ungrateful of the TV station who gives him that much? Wow! I would love to earn even 1/25 of that in a month! I wouldn’t be ungrateful, I swear.

I can’t imagine how some people can be discontented about their good fortune in life. God has given them so much and they were thumbing their noses on the instruments He used to give them that kind of blessings. In Willie’s case, he’s thumbing his nose on ABS-CBN.

He should be grateful to the station who gave him one chance too many.

A photo of Anne Curtis and Georgina Wilson with Richard Gutierrez…

I saw this from a tweet of Georgina herself. The two ladies are the exes of Richard. I am sure most guys out there are so envious of the lucky man. And a girl is gnashing her teeth somewhere from sheer jealousy! They just keep on denying it but entertainment reports said that Richard’s current girlfriend is GMA-7 artist Jewel Mische.

Why deny it? Probably to protect the public’s perception of Richard as a single man falling for whoever is his current love interest.

Sucks to be Jewel!

I’ve been watching May Bukas Pa because the little girl at home loves Santino. The story is good and I must say that the little kid playing Santino is really someone you can see being the one Bro talks to. He is such a wonderful child actor. And someone who can evoke such sympathy from the televiewers. The other actors are also good.

What I find disturbing is how big Dina Bonnevie has gotten! Last night’s episode shown how big she already is! She needs a fat burner stat! She’s one of the beautiful and great actresses that we have locally. I guess since she’s not that active anymore like she used to, she let herself gain weight that much.

I don’t know if ABS-CBN is thinking clearly when they conceptualized a series based on the movie Katorse. The movie was a Dina Bonnevie-starrer about a 14-year-old getting pregnant and regretting it but emerging as triumphant in the end. Sure, the movie has a positive message in the end. The Katorse lead emerged as a stronger person after her ordeal. But to actually do a series based on it???

Katorse airs on ABS-CBN, right before TV Patrol. It’s practically on primetime, a period in the day when most kids are watching tv. A time when teens and other adults are waiting for the news program to start. Can you imagine how many underage people are able to watch the series? Plus, the teaser is really a teaser! It will tease your senses about this 14-year-old barrio lass who wears clothes that show her cleavage and exposes most of her sensual nature. A barrio lass who’s supposed to be timid and shy as most barrio lasses are but not this one. She’s a flirt, who wants to do the deed, and does it, with the barrio rich kid. She got pregnant in the process.

You know what I think? Tweens and teens are watching this series. Curious about sex, they will really follow this one. Some kids the same age as the character might be in the same predicament, aching to do the deed with the apple of their eyes. I can assure you, teen pregnancy will rise in the duration of this series. And many pedophiles are watching this series, fantasizing about the flirt barrio lass!

ABS-CBN should be more responsible with what they’re airing. It’s not all about money! They have a social responsibility, too. And egging teens to do the deed with the one they “love” and getting pregnant in the process is a big mistake! They should be ashamed of themselves!

It was all over the news a couple of months ago, in 2008, that veteran actor, Johnny Delgado has colon cancer and was dying. It started as a blind item and was later reported in major entertainment news programs, tabloids and broadsheets.

According to the article in PEP.ph, he was told by the doctors that it was colon cancer and that his body had shut down. He had two weeks to live. He left everything to the Lord. And then the biopsy results done to him came out. It was not colon cancer! It turned out to be lymphoma, still a form of cancer but one that could be treated with chemo cycles. After a couple of chemo sessions, he is not doing fine and 85% of the cancer cells are already gone.

He said that whatever happens, he is leaving everything to Him and that miracles do happen.

I don’t know why here in the Philippines, lead stars of a movie have to talk about kissing scenes, love scenes, parts of their bodies just to sell a movie! There is a movie from Star Cinema to be shown within the week. Love Me Again starring Piolo Pascual and Angel Locsin. Every time the two are interviewed on camera, they are asked about Piolo’s abs OR their hot love scene. That’s it!

The cinematography of the movie is really great, as far as I could tell from the trailer. The story might be good. The supporting cast, great. They can inject that in their interviews. But no! The local showbiz reporters are more interested in the cheesy love scene and Piolo’s uninteresting abs!

Such is the state of our local showbiz.

KC Concepcion, Sharon Cuneta and Gabby Concepcion’s daughter… Don’t you think?

Too bad her first ever music album sucks!

Songs in aka Cassandra, KC’s first music album, are not even included in radio music charts. I don’t know why she was even given free rein on her first album. It was a bad move, if you ask me. She chose songs that are not what the masses are expecting from her. That Imposible song that they first released is irritating! And the Umbrella rendition… goodness! Who said it was ethereal? What is ethereal anyway?

Well, if you listened to her album already, let me know what you think of it

Watch this video that I got from Blissful Weddings Philippines‘ web site. Nakakakilig sila! They look so good together. Cheska Garcia is the sister of Patrick Garcia, an actor here in the Philippines. Cheska is one of the hosts of fashion-magazine show Us Girls together with Iya Villania and Angel Aquino. Doug Kramer is a popular basketball player in the PBA. They’ve been together for close to 5 years, I believe, before they tied the knot in a Christian wedding at Blue Leaf, The Fort, Taguig City.

Ganda ng wedding down ni Cheska! And nakakatuwa when Doug shed tears on seeing Cheska walk down the aisle

Watch Cheska Garcia and Doug Kramer’s wedding video below…

Rumors are spreading like wildfire. It is the hottest talk of local showbiz. Sharon Cuneta, the country’s megastar and Senator Kiko Pangilinan are already separated! Close friends are denying the rumors, saying that the couple are just taking some “alone time” right now. Sharon is reportedly in Hongkong with the couple’s two daughters, Frankie and Miel, with some of Sharon’s closest friends.

If you remember, this is not the first time a rumor like this about the couple circulated. Several times rumors have spread about the couple separating. One of the rumors had it that Senator Kiko has a girlfriend, one of his staff at the Senate. At another rumor, it was said that Senator Kiko has a kid by another woman. They denied all the rumors. But if you think about it, why the persistent rumor of their marriage being on the rocks, right?

Senator Kiko is reportedly running for a higher position come 2010 elections. I think he will do everything he can to cover this up if it’s true. What do you think?

Instead of dropping cards and writing some posts, I read Francis Magalona’s blog instead. He was chronicling his battle with leukemia. Here is a photo of him in the hospital…

He looked so much like my brother who died a couple of years ago. From leukemia.

Just felt so sad seeing his photos. But when you get to read his entries, you will feel the hope and faith in him. I pray that he gets well and wins this battle against the big C.

I caught a glimpse of Sharon Cuneta’s Mega 30 Concert at ABS CBN 2 this evening. Sharon, as usual, is at her best. She knew how to work a crowd. But what I noticed was the ridiculous outfit that she wore at the end of the concert. She looked like her head was just stuffed inside the dress. Here is the photo I am talking about…

Look at her with the same gown without the ridiculous sleeves…

Whoever made that ridiculous sleeves did not do her any justice. At all!

Here are some more photos from the Mega 30 Concert of the megastar Sharon Cuneta.  Keep reading…

She already confirmed it according to PEP.ph. Vina Morales, reported to be 2 months pregnant by her non-showbiz boyfriend, Cedric Lee, was seen by PEP being interviewed by The Buzz. In the interview, the sultry singer from Cebu confirmed the reports and announced that she is indeed expecting.

I guess pregnancy news on celebrities is nothing new anymore. There are so many pregnant celebrities right now.

Vina Morales, a well-known personality here in the Philippines, is said to be 2 months pregnant by his non-showbiz boyfriend named Cedric Lee. If you are following local showbiz news, this Cedric guy is the one who was reported to be still married, but separated from his wife already when Vina entered the picture.

There was a brouhaha a few months back when the news broke out. Vina with her sweet image was accused of being a home-wrecker and all. But Cedric sent letters to the media defending Vina and confirming that he was indeed separated from his wife already when he and Vina entered into a relationship.

Let’s see when Vina will go on national tv to confirm this news.
