MANZANO. Amusing interactions.
Julie Katada, televiewer: “Luis Manzano is a natural comedian. On ‘The Voice Kids,’ I love the way he interacts with the young contestants and their parents. If he could only be as natural in his comedic roles in films or on TV.”
Other notes:
Ludy Cruz, housewife: “Jonalyn Viray has always been one of our better singers. “It’s a shame that she isn’t as popular as her less talented contemporaries.
“How about a career in musical theater? That’s what Rachelle Ann Go and her former La Diva colleague, Aicelle Santos, did to reinvigorate their performing careers.”
Gene Luis, student: “My heart goes out to theater couple, Noni and Shamaine Buencamino, for the loss of their daughter, Julia. I pray for healing.”
Sandy Canete, businessman: “I’ve been a Tessie Tomas fan since her Amanda Pineda days in ‘Champoy.’ But, seeing her overblown portrayal in the indie drama, ‘Piring,’ is a letdown. Exceptional talents should be more selective in the film projects they choose to appear in.”
Rene Rubio, televiewer: “There are news anchors you wish weren’t on TV—but, Jessica Soho is an exception. I missed her when she didn’t report for work on ‘State of the Nation’ for several days. I have nothing against her pinch-hitters, but Soho is irreplaceable. ”
