Vilma Santos does it again! Her victory in the elections comes as no surprise. Ate Vi’s track record speaks for itself. Her grand slam winning streak is not confined to acting awards après tout. Here is what the Governor for all Seasons says after winning the third time around: “Sobra ang taos-puso [...]
Anjo Yllana is euphoric after winning the elections. He sent me this text message:
I had a blast bonding with my BFF (Best Friend Forever) Cesar Montano at his restaurant, Bellisimo. He was in high spirits as he told me about the Fun Run against Cancer 2013 Manila (10K, 5K and 3K), which will be held on June 8 at Rajah Sulayman Plaza on Roxas Blvd., Manila, near Malate church.

Mae Paner, aka Juana Change, totally cracked me up in “Vagina Monologues” when Monique Wilson invited both of us and other colleagues to be part of her pet project last year. Mae brought the house down with her animated portrayal of the various kinds of women on the verge of “climax.” No doubt the seasoned thespian will be even more hilarious on the big screen in “Juana C. the Movie” (opening May 29). During its special screening, even Brillante Ma. Mendoza couldn’t stop laughing.
The Barretto sisters are at it again. Behind the beauty of Gretchen and Claudine’s faces lies so many ugly family secrets which have now become public knowledge through the exposé of their mom and siblings. But can’t we be spared of the gory details?
What would local show biz be without our beloved Kuya Germs (German Moreno)? Today he marks his 50th anniversary in the industry with a grand bash at Resorts World Manila. His rags-to-riches story is truly phenomenal.
Comedy King Dolphy’s statue was unveiled on April 16, which is also the birthday of Dolphy Jr. Present at the event were his proud children—Sally, Eric, Epy, Ronnie, Vandolph, Rolly, Dolphy Jr., Edgar and his sister Laura. According to Sally, Mayor Alfredo Lim told them that the statue was erected in front of Museo Pambata on Roxas Boulevard because, without their knowledge, their dad had donated a lot to the museum.
Eula Caballero is off to greater heights as she topbills TV5’s fantaserye “Cassandra: Warrior Angel” with Eula Valdes which premieres in May. They portray mother and daughter separated by supernatural circumstances.
