Acting projects for Charo Santos-Concio sought
CONCIO. Should go back to acting
Clarissa Calingasan: ‘I want to see Charo Santos-Concio act on the big screen again! Not too many people remember that she was once hailed as Asia’s best actress, for her performance in Mike de Leon’s ‘Itim.’ I hope that running a huge media network doesn’t stop her from acting from time to time.”
Other notes:
Cora de Aro, housewife: “Boy Abunda’s no-holds-barred interview on ‘Bottom Line’ with ABS-CBN’s news reporters was noteworthy.
I also found the seasoned TV host’s unconditional love for his dementia-stricken mother touching. Other celebrities should emulate him for the premium he puts on the importance of saving—which could come in handy when offers are few and far between!”
Iconic role
Jun Domingo, student: “It must have been hard for Angel Locsin to let go of the Darna role she’s been preparing to portray! Some years ago, she also sacrificed reprising the role when she jumped ship from her former home network. The same iconic role catapulted Marian Rivera to stardom. Who will be the lucky actress to inherit the superheroine’s magic stone?”
Sol Morales, televiewer: “Hats off to dzMM’s ‘Ikaw Na Ba?’ program for featuring in-depth interviews with our presidential candidates. The interview with Grace Poe made me realize how well-versed she is on national issues. Can the people behind the show replay its interview with Mar Roxas? Interviewers Anthony Taberna, Karen Davila, Gerry Baja and Vic Lima are alternately serious and funny, which helps their interviewees relax.”
Lloyd Vidal, office employee: “What does a performer do if his or her show biz career isn’t going anywhere? Rachelle Ann Go (‘Miss Saigon’), Aicelle Santos (‘Katy!’ and ‘Rak of Aegis’) and Mark Bautista (‘Here Lies Love’ and ‘Bituing Walang Ningning’) have the answer—because they’ve never been busier after taking the musical-theater route!
