Anne Curtis still a Kapamilya

anne curtis

Still on the "ober da bakod issue", I read just recently that GMA offered a contract for Anne Curtis to come back to GMA 7 since her contract with ABS-CBN has expired. She was suppose to do a drama series on the Kapuso station if she accepted the offer. But ABS-CBN did not let that happened, they gave her a counter offer to sign another contract with Kapamilya and the young actress sign.

Hey! that was the same thing that happened to Regine Velasques. De Javu?

MP3: Mahal Kita-Maricris Garcia(OST-Marimar)

Marimar is today's most phenomenal primetime series in the Philippines starring Marian Rivera as Marimar and Dingdong Dantes as Sergio. The program soared high in the ratings and it even surpassed the ratings of the original Marimar series starring Thalia. And of course watching Marimar every night will not be the same without hearing it's love theme. Here it is "Mahal Kita" sung by Pinoy Pop Superstar Champion Maricris Garcia:




Maricris Garcia - mahal kita

J-LO gave birth!

J Lo


Latin pop star Jennifer Lopez gave birth with not one but two kids, one boy and one girl, in short twins. J-Lo gave birth to her her twins last friday morning. Marc Anthony her husband could be the happiest father at this moment.

News said that a high security measure was given to her babies in the the hospital. And reporters offered $6 million just for the exclusive rights for the babise photo. Wow! that's a lot of money!

The Songbird Flying to the Kapamilya?

RegiNe VeLasQuez

Asia's song bird Regine Velasquez moving to ABS-CBN was the most talked about news in local showbiz scene. It was reported that Regine received an offer from the Kapamilya Network, and the contract guarantees big amount of talent fee. The issue became bigger when Regine Velazquez and her colleagues became turned emotional in last Sunday's telecast of the GMA's Sunday variety show SOP. After the show the staffs and co-hosts of the show had a closed door meeting but neither one of them gave any comments about what they have discussed. Because of that incident many speculations arise that the group was emotional because Regine is planning to accept the tempting offer of ABS.

But as of these moment GMA executive and the Songbird have had a communication with each other, maybe they were able to voice out each others demands, with that maybe we can expect that Regine will continue to be a Kapuso. After all Regine has been a Kapuso for so many years and the network took good care of her career as a host and even as an actress. She doesn't have to move to the other station to grow more cause she is already a big star. In the coming months there are upcoming projects lined for Regine, one of those is a movie with Ogie Alcasid to be produced by GMA Films and VIVA, and the rumored return of Celebrity Duets, so what more could she wished for?

My Bestfriend's Girlfriend

My Bestfriend's Girlfriend is a certified box office hit. It features the first team-up of GMA's hottest stars today, Richard Guttierez and Marian Rivera. The two has a nice chemistry and they looks so good together.

According to the people who already saw the movie Marian Rivera is such a versatile actress, she can do both drama and comedy, while Richard Guttierez is always the best leading man in the town, he always makes a good chemistry to any leading lady paired to him. I wonder if GMA will produce a TV show with Marian and Richard together now that they proved that their tandem made it big in the big screen, I'm keeping my fingers cross.

Single Review-Inconsolable(Backstreet Boys)

Inconsolable is the first single from the new Backstreet Boys album Unbreakable. This track is more of a pop-rock. It sounds catchy, and in this song the Backstreet Boys sound like the old Backstreet Boys, unlike their 2005 album Never Gone which featured the song Incomplete, I like that song also but they don't sound like a boyband it's more of a rock song and it does'nt fit their style.

Here are the Backstreet boys with Inconsolable:

Joaquin Bordado


Joaquin Bordado starring Bad Boy Robin Padilla piloted last monday, it's first week of airing was already filled with action and twists. The stunts were cool and the stars' acting were remarkable speacially Iza Calzado who played Robin's wife.

Joaquin Bordado is the story of Joaquin Apacible, an assasin who is hired to kill people who are involved in big time crime, until one day he was assign to kill a leader of a syndicateand he was shocked to find out that it was his broth who he taught was a good person. He was set up and put to jail by his own brother and was killed. But an old man from another dimension handed him a secret powers from tatoos that comes alive.


We can expect more action and suspense now that Joaquin already recieved the powers of the tatoos embeded in his skin.

Joaquin Bordaddo is an adaptation from a comics created by Carlo J. Caparas. There was a film adaptation played by the "Hari ng Agimat" and former Senator Ramon Revilla. I was able to see that movie when I was 8 years old, the movie is entirely different from the TV adaptation, of course the effects in the TV series are more high tech nowadays. I remember that Joaquin died in the movie after he used all his powers to defeat the monster from his tatoo that turned against him. Hope that GMA has a better ending than that of the movie.

Anyway Joaquin Boradado piloted with a 36.6% ratings accordin to Philippine Entertainment Portal

Pinay Idol


Yes, another Fil-am made it in the top 24 of the American Idol season 7. She is 20 years old Ramiele Malubay from Miramar, Miami Florida. I was able to watch the episode where the judges chose her, actually I was waiting for that episode because I want to see wether she would make it.

She sang her piece very well and even made Paula Abdul jiving as she sings. Question now if she could make it in the finals and if she could surpass what Jasmine Trias did. That I will watch, and all you music loving Filipinos should watch.

Fairwell Zaido


Photo Licensing


Last week my favorite action series Zaido bid fairwell to all it's viewers specially the kids. It was a successful run for the telefantasia. At first many critics slamed the show, including some fans of Shaider, the action series where Zaido was based. Some said that GMA will only destroy the legacy of Shaider. But they were proven wron. Zaido dominated the Television sets of many households, the names Zaido Blue, Red and Green become a household name.

I truly will miss the show. Upto now I still enjoy sayng "time space warp, ngayon din!", "codename:Shaider!" and the ever popular kuuma chant which I refer to as the "shigi-shigi song", and of course the "Zaido Super Spalsh!". Gma may not have been successful in acquiring the original story plot of Shaider but the made a successful decendant of Shaider. Congrats GMA!

The way the show ended was good it's everybody happy in terms of love life. And the way the boy yelled in the ending, it was a bang. Congrats again GMA and to all the people behind Zaido!

Two weeks ago three new ABS-CBN shows piloted, the network gave this three shows the grandest promotion, they even went to provinces to promote the new shows namely Kung Fu Kids, Lobo and Palos. Many Kapamilyas and Kapuso waited for the ratings result of this three shows wether ABS will beat GMA's programs. But things did not turn out good for the Kapamilya Network, their three new shows received a total beating from GMA's telebabad show. Only the Kung Fu Kids won against Zaido at least for one day, but the next day it was once again beated by Zaido.

Of all the three shows launched by ABS-CBN, Palos is the weakest, since it was aired against Marimar. Marimar's rating still soared as big as 40% while Palos only got 20%

The highlight of this ratings game between ABS and GMA is the collision of Kamandag lead by Richard Gutierrez and Lobo starred by Richard's former leading lady Angel Locsin. A lot of people are awaited this one, not only the two are former team but it will show if Angel still got her magic and charm. Many predicted that Angel will loose her popularity after she moved from Kapuso to Kapamilya. And now it's happening, Lobo's pilot rating is quite very low, unlike her shows in GMA that soared very high. And when Angel and Piolo's sceen finally aired last week the ratings went lower than the pilot episode, contrast to the beliefs that the show's ratings will improved once the two main stars were shown.

It will be another bad news for the Kapamilya network because tomorrow GMA's new fantaserye Joaquin Bordado starring Robin Padilla will start to air. But this this should not bother the ABS-CBN people, after all they said that they don't believe in ratings.

MJ is back!


Hey I heard a very good news for all Michael Jackson fans. The king of Pop will be releasing a new album called Thriller 25, for the 25th anniversary of his hit album thriller which was certified as the biggest selling album of all time.

This album will feature the single "Wanna be starting something". Earlier I heard the single played in a radio station, he collaborated with Akon for this song. It was cool!

I admire Michael Jackson's music, I used to do his dance moves. I'm glad he was able to make a comeback with a new album which is garranteed to be another big hit.

Britney Getting medical attention


Pop star Britney Spears was taken to the UCLA Medical Center last January 31, Thursday for medical attention, this is due to her mental condition. According to her mother Lynne, Britney according to her mom is now doing fine and they will return to Louisiana as soon as Britney is discharged.

Finally her family took some actions for Britney's condition, as a fan I'm really bothered about her actions, what she could to anyone and or to herself. I got even more bothered when I read from an article that a phsychic predicted that Britney Spears will commit a suicide if she don't get some medical attention.

Britney Spears is believed to have a bipolar disorder, no wonder she is always in a drastic mood change. I hope she gets better soon, and I wish she gets through all this, it will sad if her mental condition will cause her entire career or worst, her life.
