Zac Efron is Penshoppe Philippines’ Latest Image Model

Wednesday, April 11th, 2012

zac efron penshoppe

Guess who’s the latest hollywood star image model of Penshoppe? It’s no other than Zac Efron. I bet that gets a lot of filipino fans giddy with excitement in seeing him in Philippines soon. It seems that Penshoppe is getting foreign celebrity endorsers such as Mario Maurer and Ed Westwick. While they’re at it, they might as well improve the women’s clothing line since it leaves a lot to be desired. Just saying.

Filipino Group Kayumanggi in Canada’s Got Talent 2012

canadas got talent kayumang

Check out Filipino representative group for Canada’s Got Talent 2012. Well I think the performance lacks the “ooomph” since I’ve seen much better ones done locally. And well, I don’t think the flag is really that necessary in folk dance. Don’t have much to say about this one.

Another reason for pinoys to rejoice when a hollywood production will grace our country. Prepare for hordes of pinay starlets tweeting that they had dinner with some hollywood actors. When the guys finally pack up and leave, expect some juicy buzz interview with some chick who would spill the beans on one hot night with Jeremy Renner. Of course this may or may not happen after all, I’m not Madam Auring.

Tuloy na tuloy na ang shooting ng Hollywood actor na si Jeremy Renner sa Pilipinas para sa susunod na pelikula sa Bourne franchise.

Ito ang kinumpirma ni Mr. Briccio Santos, head ng Film Development Council of the Philippines (FDCP), kanina, October 19.

Nakausap siya ng PEP.ph (Philippine Entertainment Portal) sa presscon para sa Moviemov Italian Film Festival na ginanap sa isang hotel sa Makati.

“They’re coming January, I think. They will be here for five weeks,” ang mabilis na kumpirmasyon ni Santos.

Ang Bourne movies ay ang series ng pelikula tungkol kay Jason Bourne, isang dating CIA assassin na may memory loss.

Tatlo na ang na-produce sa franchise na ito: The Bourne Identity (2002), The Bourne Supremacy (2004), The Bourne Ultimatum (2007).

You still remember the iconic baby on Nirvana’s Nevermind Album? Spencer Elden went back to the Rosebowl, pasadena to recreate the album to commemorate the 20th anniversary of nevermind album. He has yet to meet the band members. One may think that he’ll be into music as well, but it seems that his interest leans towards art. I wonder, will he recreate the infamous album cover when he’s 50 years old?

Oprah Winfrey Statement on Miss Philippines Shamcey Supsup Confirmed not True

Wednesday, September 14th, 2011

oprah winfrey

Oprah’s alleged statement on Shamcey Supsup spread around online faster than speed of light. I knew it was too good to be true that Oprah would be rooting for Shamcey Supsup. It didn’t take long that the alleged statement would be debunked by PR people of Oprah. Some bored people just concocted this fairytale to make themselves feel better on Miss Philippines’ loss.

Hours after Philippine bet Shamcey Supsup was named as the 3rd runner-up at the Miss Universe 2011 pageant, a purported statement from U.S. “Queen of Talk” Oprah Winfrey spread like wildfire online.

This alleged statement was aired via NBC News: “I have reservations with the results. If the only basis is the Q and A portion, after having been trimmed down to 5, Ms. Philippines deserved to win. What made her different from the rest is that she had no seconds to rethink of her answer as she had no interpreter to break the ice. The rest had their interpreters and having breaks on seconds to think about their answers. Hands down, Ms. Philippines answered straight to the point.”

But sorry to burst your bubble, the highly influential celebrity did not actually say that.

Answering a query on the alleged statement, a moderator on Oprah’s official website Oprah.com said Oprah has not issued “any comments of this nature.”

OWNModerator13 responded: “There is no truth to the statement. Ms. Winfrey has not made any comments of this nature. Thank you for asking.”

Amy Winehouse Found Dead in Her Apartment

Saturday, July 23rd, 2011

I was shocked to hear about Amy Winehouse’s death. Although I could clearly see it coming due to her self-destructive lifestyle. I guess she must have really been tired trying to live. Damn I’m gonna miss her wacky antics. RIP Lady with a weird wig.

Taylor Lautner to Endorse Filipino Apparel Bench is Fake PR stunt

Thursday, June 16th, 2011

taylor lautner benchI saw this news article on Philippine Star that Taylor Lautner is set to endorse Philippine apparel Bench. Since I’m not a big fan of Lautner or any twilight stars in particular, I knew that this news would be a big deal. Turns out that Ricky Lo is sadly mistaken. What’s worst is that Taylor Lautner’s Management isn’t too happy about the PR stunt and considers filing a case against Bench.

I was thinking that either Ricky Lo drank too much martini when he got the news or he got paid to make fake PR stunt to get some buzz going. For an established entertainment writer like Ricky Lo, it’s pretty dumb move to release news like that without verifying facts. If he continues to make stunts like that I’m sure he’ll end up writing for unsavory tabloid columns like Tiktik, Bandera and etc. I’m sure he’ll be welcomed by bottom feeders like Cristy Fermin.

Here’s Ricky Lo Article on Taylor Lautner as Bench endorser:

ABS CBN News

MANILA, Philippines – Bench has followed in the footsteps of other local brands by hiring a Hollywood star to endorse its products. According to The Philippine Star entertainment columnist Ricky Lo, Bench tapped American actor Taylor Lautner to become its newest endorser.

Lo’s source, however, did not say if Lautner, who rose to fame by playing Jacob Black in “The Twilight Saga”, would model its shirts, pants or underwear. “Gossip Girl” actor Ed Westwick flew to the Philippines after Penshoppe hired him. Clothing brand Kamiseta has previously tapped Natalie Portman to endorse its products. Katie Holmes is its latest endorser.

Dakota Fanning’s Marc Jacobs Vulgar Ad

Tuesday, June 14th, 2011

dakota-fanning-marc jacobs

I know that Dakota Fanning is itching to act “grown up” but posing like this in Marc Jacobs perfume ad looks unclassy. Here in this picture you see Dakota as nubile girl with a perfume strategically placed between her legs. On top of it, there’s a flower strategically placed. I get this “birds and bees” type of vibe to it.

I’m guessing that the one in charge wants to project a “lolita” look but ends up looking like a fapping material to lecherous guys.

Filipina Girl didn’t make the cut in Britain’s Got Talent 2011

Thursday, June 9th, 2011

Arisxandra Libantino

Arisxandra Libantino of Nottingham didn’t make the cut in Britain’s Got Talent 2011. She sang, “And I Am Telling You” by Jennifer Hudson which impressed the judges so much that David Hasselhoff asked her if she’s indeed 9 years old. Holden comment that she’s got the biggest set of lungs at her size.

Despite getting “Three yes” from the judges, it’s still puzzling why her audition didn’t get shown. The producers just had to say that “Due to lack of time” that not all audition gets to be shown.

Before anyone gets all worked up about “Racism” issue, maybe the producers are so sick and tired of singers. I usually skip the show when it showcases singers since there’s gazillions of them already. I would want to watch something new and refreshing.
