Since we are still caught up in the holiday frenzy, I came up with a list of gifts that I wish I could give to some of my favorite people in the biz. They have everything money can buy, so material gifts are immaterial.
’Tis the season to be giving. That’s a Christmust! But if your Christmas list has left you with no more money to count, keep counting your blessings, instead.
Vilma Santos: A clone. Show biz will be a kinder place if there are more good souls like her.
James Yap and Mic Cazzola: Since they love to travel, I wish I could give them the power to teleport together, so they can visit as many countries as possible.
Pops Fernandez: More hours in a day, so the “Superwoman” in her can accomplish everything she puts her heart into.
Cesar Montano: A dispensing machine of his joie de vivre, so it would be easily available to those who need some cheering up!
Aga and Charlene Muhlach: Since they love the beach, I wish I could give them their own private island.
Dingdong Dantes and Marian Rivera: To be able to freeze time, so their Baby Z won’t grow up too fast.
Ogie Alcasid and Regine Velasquez: An amusement park named after their son Nate (Natelandia), inspired by all his cute antics which they post on social media.
Boy Abunda: Immortality, because the biz won’t be the same without him.
Aiko Melendez: An anti-heartache vaccine.
Vina Morales: A lifetime guarantee from Cupid for lasting love
Mother Lily Monteverde: A “kindness recycling machine,” so all her kindness will come back to her a hundredfold.
Boss Vic del Rosario: A “Show Biz Hero” monument.
Ryan Cayabyab: A good old-fashioned jukebox containing all his classic compositions.
Noel Cabangon: A folk village in his honor where his songs will be played all day long.
Galactic celebration
Globe Telecom gave “Star Wars” (SW) fans the ultimate treat in its Globe-“Star Wars” Galactic Celebration. It transformed the Bonifacio High Street Central amphitheater into a big SW playground on Dec. 12 and 13.
It featured game booths, SW icons and characters, retail collectibles and special offers from Globe.
The highlight of the galactic fair was the Galactic Challenge, a specially designed obstacle course. The winner took home the coveted Sphero droid toy BB-8. Special giveaways are up for grabs with the SW everyday promo.
Starwarrific!
