4TH IMPACT. Deserves international stardom.
Jacqueline Flores, teacher: “The elimination of 4th Impact on ‘X Factor UK’ was disheartening. I followed the four sisters’ exceptional performances week after week and prayed hard that they wouldn’t be eliminated. I hope that the group’s exciting journey doesn’t end, because they deserve international stardom! Here’s hoping that the talented siblings will do well when the ‘X Factor’ tour begins early next year.”
Other notes:
Ditas Perez, housewife: “The battle among primetime teleseryes’ top mature leading men continues, with the good-looking likes of Richard Gomez (‘You’re My Home’) and Gabby Concepcion (‘Because of You’) leading the way.
‘Luckily for Richard, he’s paired with the lovely Dawn Zulueta—and they still look good together! Gabby’s partner is the much younger Carla Abellana—but, in fairness to Gabby, the age difference between him and Carla isn’t that obvious. But, if Richard has Dawn, why can’t Gabby costar with Sharon Cuneta on his next teleserye outing? Now that would be something to look forward to!”
Cookie Tiglao, Zumba instructor: “During weeknights, I sit in front of the TV screen, excited to watch ‘Little Nanay.’ I’m drawn to the loving characters of Loloy Berting and Lolay Annie, brought to life by Bembol Roco and Nora Aunor, respectively.
“Supporting them are equally talented actors, Eddie Garcia, Sunshine Dizon, Gladys Reyes, Keempie de Leon, Mark Herras, Juancho Trivinio and Hiro Peralta. But the most endearing of them all is the intellectually disabled Tinay, played by Kris Bernal.”
Alex Mandac, student: “I may have missed media reports on non-ABS CBN talents tapped to entertain during Apec functions, except maybe for Jessica Sanchez. There goes an opportunity for the administration to bridge the worsening gap between rival networks. After all, there are also excellent but unheralded performers outside ABS-CBN.”
