Kulay Pikata on Talentadong Pinoy

August 22nd, 2010 by admin


This was a pleasant surprise. I know Kulay Pikata because they are a famous all-male singing group here in Bacolod City.
Then tonight, I saw them on Talentadong Pinoy. And I am really proud of their performance. They wowed the judges and they were chosen as the challengers to the current weekly champion.
Oh well, they did [...]

Sharon Cuneta and Lucky Me

August 20th, 2010 by admin


When Megastar Sharon Cuneta was pregnant with her third baby, she was the commercial model for the McDonalds TV ad with the theme, “Maglihi sa McDo.” I said, “Wow! What a recipe for disaster!” A prospective mother in her right mind would try to avoid McDonalds, but if it is inevitable, the pregnant mother would [...]

Naked on the Cover

August 19th, 2010 by admin


They’re naked on the cover of Rolling Stones. Is this really necessary?
Well, here they are–Alexander Skarsgard, Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer–stars of the HBO series, True Blood. They are on the cover of Rolling Stones–all naked and covered with blood. OH well, whatever tickles the imagination and fantasies of many people. And whatever can sell [...]

No Sympathy for Willie

August 14th, 2010 by admin


I saw Willie Revillame on a live interview with 24 Oras last time. He was being interviewed by Mike Enriquez together with his lawyer. This is the issue about his contract with ABS-CBN.
Willie is insisting that he is no longer a talent of ABS-CBN because after being promised that he shall make a comeback in [...]

Talentadong Pinoy Auditions

July 18th, 2010 by admin


I have always liked Talentadong Pinoy of TV5. Even when ABS-CBN released the seasonal Pilipinas Got Talent franchise, I still watched TP.
I appreciate the fact that they have leveled up. Now, they have two episodes per week and have four members on the judges’ panel. When they changed the show’s format, they also changed the [...]

Looking forward to Magkaribal

June 24th, 2010 by admin


Magkaribal is the new teleserye in ABS-CBN Primetime Bida and it top bills Gretchen Baretto, Angel Aquino, Bea Alonzo, and Derek Ramsey. It seems very interesting.
The prima donna Gretchen seems to be very at home with her role, perhaps because she is reprising real life? hmmmm…By the way, if I may say, Gretchen looks like [...]

Jovit Baldivino-First PGT Grand Winner

June 14th, 2010 by admin


The curtains are raised and the announcement was finally made–JOVIT BALDIVINO is the first Pinoy Got Talent Grand Winner. Although my hopes were for Ezra Band, the Davao-based acoustic band did not make it to the Top 3. Oh well, I did my best, I campaigned for them and even voted for them.
I believe [...]

Pilipinas Got Talent Bets

June 13th, 2010 by admin


The Pilipinas Got Talent finalists really performed very well last night. Honestly, I can say that everyone deserves a fighting chance to be the first Pilipinas Got Talent Grand Winner. But still among them, I am for Ezra Band. I think they have the smoothest performance. Markki Stroem will surely have a career after this. [...]

Rooting for Ezra Band

June 12th, 2010 by admin


It’s the grand finals tonight of Pilipinas Got Talent hosted by Billy Joe Crawford and Luis Manzano. The panel of judges are Aiai delas Alas, Kris Aquino, and Freddie M. Garcia.
So who will it be? Who will be the first Pilipinas Got Talent Grand Winner? Would it be Jovit Baldivino, Ezra Band, Baguio Metamorphosis, Alakim, [...]

Too Young for LoveTeam

May 30th, 2010 by admin


I have not written last time about First Time, the teleserye of GMA for tweens, which stars the very pretty Barbie Forteza opposite Joshua Dionisio and Elmo Magalona.
While the show was probably good for the career of the newcomers, I am not sure if it is any good as an example to the young people [...]

Noontime at Shake TV 5

April 12th, 2010 by admin


We usually turn on the TV 5 channel for our noontime programming. While we eat, we watch TV. Even if for the last 3 months, we have been watching the reruns of Singapore telenovelas Gangster Love and Women of Times, we continued to watch them. We would complain but nobody would dare turn the channel. [...]

Nicollette Sheridan’s Lawsuit

April 2nd, 2010 by admin


Actress Nicollette Sheridan who plays Edie Britt in Desperate Housewives has sued the show’s creator Marc Cherry for “assault and battery, gender violence and wrongful termination.” And it seems that ABC is taking the side of Marc Cherry. Poor Sheridan.
I never did really liked Desperate Housewives. I don’t watch it. It is too full of [...]
