Media These Days and Christina Aguilera

Here's Us Weekly's misleading article.

Media these days. I don't understand the hate and shade that have been thrown by the entertainment press towards Christina Aguilera. I know that media thrives in controversies but I can't believe they will go this far or this low to spin stories or create something out of nothing. It is absolutely disgusting. Take a look at what DailyMail.co.uk just did. Spanish magazine DT decided to use an old photo of Christina Aguilera for the cover of their latest issue. This photo was shot for the promotion of Not Myself Tonight back in 2010. And YES, she was so skinny in 2010. But that's not the … [Read more...]

Bring Back the ’90s!

Pageant Play Pretend It's that time of the year again when the fleeting euphoria brought about by the Miss Universe pageant sweeps the nation. I'm not a big fan of beauty pageants but when I woke up this morning, the first thought that popped up in my head was: Miss Universe telecast, live, today. Thanks to the constant TV reminders the night before. Still, I resisted the temptation to turn the TV on, went on with my morning rituals, and headed straight to work. When I opened my laptop, Miss Universe updates flooded my News Feed --- to my delight. When Miss Philippines Shamcey Supsup was … [Read more...]

Remembering ‘Iisa Pa Lamang’

iisaPAlamangPROMOpic01

At any given time, I am hooked to one, just one, teleserye. Right now, it's Imortal. Before that, it was Magkaribal. And as I was looking back, trying to remember other teleseryes that got my eyes glued to the boobtube (Tayong Dalawa, Maging Sino Ka Man, Lobo, Kay Tagal Kang Hinintay, Kung Mawawala Ka, Pangako Sa'Yo), I felt like I missed something. I spent minutes trying to figure it out and at last it dawned on me. It's been over two years since the conclusion of teleserye Iisa Pa Lamang. It wouldn't be on my list of the best drama series but it is definitely one of the most … [Read more...]

A Dose of Maricel Soriano

Maricel Soriano facing Zsa Zsa Padilla in Minsan Lang Kita IIbigin

I'm mad. I'm very mad. I'm having this awful Maricel Soriano withdrawal syndrome. You see, I haven't seen Maricel Soriano on TV or any mainstream film in a long while now and it's killing me. I don't know, maybe I just haven't had time to mingle with my boobtube lately but I miss her. I'm a fan. There may be better local actresses better than her but one thing she owns is versatility. She's the only actress I know who can do drama, comedy, horror, bida or kontrabida and do it well. So to ease my pain, I went to my old friend YouTube, who reminded me of the old Marya and here's what I … [Read more...]

Sam Milby joins the ranks of Derek Ramsay, Jay-R, Dingdong Dantes, Richard Gutierrez and Gerald Anderson as he sheds off some clothes to grace the cover of Cosmo Men, the highly anticipated mini-catalogue of the hottest men on earth. I'm more than excited about is as I adore Sam Milby from head to toe. Nothing is better than a shirtless picture of Sam Milby. "Prepare to be ravaged," says the cover and I'm ready, Sam, I'm ready. Ravage me. Meow. Take a look at this gorgeous, sexy cover. Isn't he wild? And I'm not referring to the tiger. Cosmopolitan's Centerfolds 2010 will also … [Read more...]

Angel Locsin and John Lloyd Cruz Star in IMORTAL

imortal abs-cbn

I'm sooo excited! Soon to hit the small screen is the much anticipated series called IMORTAL, sequel to the award-winning and highly successful LOBO. I guess one of the most remarkable things about this new show is the fact that this is the first team-up of Angel Locsin, who was nominated in the International Emmy for her performance in Lobo, and John Lloyd Cruz, who will be doing fantasy for the first time. Here's trailer fresh from the oven: Directed by Chito Rono and Jerry Lopez Sineneng, IMORTAL stars Maricar Reyes, Chin chin Gutierrez, Jake Roxas, Gladys Reyes, Jaime Fabregas … [Read more...]

God, I Miss Boy Bands!

Westlife

I was just browsing songs on my iPod and I realized that I just miss the boy band era. Haha. I know boy band songs are like 300 different cheesy cheeses rolled into four minutes of music but hey, they are catchy as hell. And damn romantic, too. I particularly liked the following boy bands and these songs: 98 Degrees --- The Hardest Thing, Invisible Man A1 - Same Old Brand New You, Caught in the Middle BBMak --- Back Here, Still on Your Side Blue - If You Come Back, Too Close BoyZone - I Love the Way You Love Me, Baby Can I Hold You Code Red --- What Good is a Heart, … [Read more...]

Hypnotic Jericho Rosales on MINT Billboards

jericho rosales mint billboard

It's been over a year since Jericho Rosales signed a deal to endorse MINT, a local fashion brand, but it's only now that it dawns on me just how sexy Echo really is on Mint billboards. A few months ago, while on board the MRT, I spotted this billboard along EDSA (near MRT Guadalupe station). I know this billboard looks so generic but there was something about it that was so wildly attractive. Maybe it's the shirt. Maybe it's Jericho's drop-my-briefs stare. Maybe it's that little cut on his left eyebrow. I dunno. There's something about it that's refreshing and hypnotic and sexy and yummy … [Read more...]

First Listen to Christina Aguilera’s ‘You Lost Me’ and ‘Bionic’ Tracks (VH1 Storytellers Leaks with Lyrics)

christina aguilera bionic

It seems like Christina Aguilera is going the Stripped way again. Although Christina Aguilera herself had said that her next album Bionic was going to be Stripped 2.0 (with Not Myself Tonight as Dirrty 2.0), it's only now that two of the tracks from her upcoming album Bionic (out June 8th) that it is confirmed. You Lost Me, one of the tracks that leaked, reminds me so much of Beautiful, but this time the influence came from Sia and not Linda Perry. The title track Bionic, on the other hand, sounds definitely more funky and more pleasing than Not Myself Tonight in the same way that Dirrty … [Read more...]
