Annabelle Rama VS. Wilma Galvante: Round 2
It is not over between Annabelle Rama and Wilma Galvante as a new intense fued is emerging between the Talent Manager and GMA's Senior Vice President For Entertainment.
It all started when Annabelle Rama's talent Heart Evangelista turned down GMA's latest soap which was supposed to a tandem with Dennis Trillo. Heart's camp stated that they put a thumb down on the project because of a restricrions stated in her contract for a Multivitamin endorsement, the contract resticts her for accepting mother roles where she will get pregnant. Because of this, GMA attorney Dick Perez issued a letter to Heart stating that what her camp did was a clear "Breach of Contract" and that they will take all legal actions to protect the network's interests.
This action mad Annabelle Rama angry once again and sent a letter of their own courtesy of their attorney Agnes Manaran. The letter stated that it was GMA that violated Heart Evangelista's contract with the Kapuso Network. Manaran said in her letter that Heart's line-up of projects written in her contracts are "Asero", "Saan Darating ang Umaga", "SOP", and a Koreanovela, but GMA did not gave Heart the Korean series project. Annabelle Rama added that the Kapuso Executives are threathening her talent.
We can bet that the clash between Annabelle Rama and Wilma Galvante is not yet over, there will still be some exchange of words in the future. If you would recall this two had it last year when Annabelle acused Ms. Galvante of sabotaging the Premiere of Ms. Rama's son Richard Gutierrez when GMA allowed to held the Dingdong and Marian Birthday Celebration the same day of the Richard-KC movie premiere night.

Heart Evangelista Turns Down GMA 7
Just when everything is set for Dennis Trillo and Heart Evangelista's team-up in GMA 7's upcoming Sinenovela "Muling Buksan ang Puso", that dream tandem will no longer happened as Heart Evangelista turned down that offer.
According to Heart's camp, it was a conflict in schedule that cause the young actress to turn down the said project. Her management added that Heart has certain product endorsement, she will portray a mother role in "Muling Buksan ang Puso" and that role could affect her endorsement.
For now, Heart Evangelista would have to wait for future projects from GMA, and as for Dennis Trillo, he should be feeling kind a disappointed because she admitted that he has a crush on Heart Evangelista and it's a dream for him to team-up with the young actress.
As of this moment, it was reported that Heart has just had meeting with ABS-CBN executives to discuss some projects in the near future, meaning that the young actress does'nt need to wait for GMA's offer and that it is really a "conflict" in schedule that caused her to turn doan GMA 7 and Dennis Trillo.

JC de Vera's Probable Transfer to ABS-CBN
There is a loud Buzz that JC de Vera has a very tempting offer from ABS-CBN, and according to reports it is an almost done deal.
The rumors of the probable transfer of JC de Vera to the other station could be because GMA has still no definite project for the young actor after LaLola where she co-starred with Rhian Ramos. It was expected that the Kapuso Station will promote more of the JC-Rhian tandem because their team up was click and they now have followers but Rhian Ramos was given the task to once again star with her former leading man Richard Gutierrez on "Zorro" and upto this moment GMA has no clear plans for JC.
Now JC deVera's fate hangs in a balance, will he remain as a Kapuso or will he be a Kapamilya. Only his manager Annabelle Rama can decide for his future. Now an old and very dried question remains hanging. Why does ABS-CBN need to import stars from rival station while there are a lot actors and actresses on their yard who are hoping for a job and a big break on showbiz.

A Showbiz Newbie Portrays Rosalinda
GMA 7 has just announced who will play the title role of the hit Mexican Telenovela "Rosalinda". And to everyone's shock it's not Marian Rivera. She is a new face on showbiz, she is Carla Abellana, daughter of 1980's heartrob Rey "PJ" Abellana.
The announcement happened at the GMA Trade Show which was held last February 2 where GMA executives announced it's upcoming new shows for the coming months. It was expected that Marian Rivera will play "Rosalinda" since she played "Marimar" which is also a Thalia Telenovela so people could'nt help but to think that GMA did'nt gave Marian the tiltle role for "Rosalinda" as a sunction for all the intrigues and controversies that she got involved with and that GMA is looking for someone to replace Marian as GMA's banner star. But according to GMA management it was their decision not to give Marian two Thalia series in a row and the controversies and intrigues thrown against her(Marian) got nothing to do with their decision. The GMA management also added that Marian will always be GMA's top choice for top Soap, but it is always great to discover new faces and talents.
Going back to Carla Abellana, Carla is a graduate of B.S Phsychology at the De La Salle University just like Marian Rivera, what a big coinsidence? She is also a commercial model. Recently Carla has also signed a 12-movie contract with Regal Entertainment and she also auditioned as Richard's leading lady in "Zorro". And at a quick glance she resembles Marian Rivera.
