Tado gives Vice Ganda a dose of her own medicine

To those who haven't seen it yet here it is



I dunno but it seems like Vice is morphing into another Willie Revillame. I hope not because she is 10000x more talented than Revillame. It is just a little disturbing because one who is in her position and her line of work really just have to be able to take it as well as dish it out. Magaling kang mang okray, so dapat pag ikaw ang tinira kaya mo ring tanggapin. She needs to realize that people are out to get her and she needs to have the guile to see this from a mile away. Disappointing.

Out of topic, but I USED to watch Showtime regularly before TFC fucked around with their programming and moved the show to 1pm or so, but what really bothered me about her specifically is when she made fun of a kids group. I knew one of the kids in the group, (not the one who got humiliated by Vice) and according to her, her friend was just subjected to bullying because of Vice. This caused a lot of distress and caused the kids to not go to school anymore.

I realize the nature of the show but I think Vice needs to lay off kids a little bit. These are kids. Kung matatanda, no problem kahit mura murahin oks lang. Pero bata? This is what kinda turned me off. Anyway I still enjoy watching her.

But this incident does not excuse Tado for being a fucking homophobe. Shame on you dude.

If only she could skip the talking part

I gotta admit this girl is growing on me.



Now I dunno where she stays here in the states but she just needs a little more street cred to kinda mask that "fobby" tone that she has, and hey the sky's the limit for her.

Forget Noynoy vs. Villar, Its Willie vs Jobert Sucaldito

4 May 2010

Add Jobert Sucaldito to the list of Willie Revillame's enemies as Revillame in his noontime show Wowowee threatened to resign if the management of ABS-CBN would retain Sucaldito's services.

This came about as Sucaldito remarked in his (or its?) radio program that the segment "Willie of Fortune" should not feature those students who are barely passing in school or those who have an average of 75% - 79%. Sucaldito said something to the effect of "dapat hindi sinasali ang mga estudyanteng bobo"

Not surprisingly, and probably due to menopause, Revillame did not like this and in turn issued an ultimatum to his mother studio to remove Jobert immediately.


WILLIE VS. JOBERT


Without knowing (or nor do I care) of Sucaldito's preference for president, I think it is safe to assume that Sucaldito is probably pulling for Noynoy Aquino just because of his affiliation with Kris Aquino, and Revillame as we all know is a die hard Villar supporter so it is not outside the realm of possibility that this is politically motivated.

Willie probably wants to see how much influence does he really have in ABS CBN. Just staying true to his egotistical character.

Sad to say, if this is not diffused early, Sucaldito might find himself without a job in the next few days. I'm not sure if ABS-CBN is willing to call Revillame's bluff or they could afford to, because whether I admit it or not, Wowowee is one of the station's moneymakers, particularly among TFC subscribers.

it took anne curtis' right boob to wake me up from my slumber.

23 March 2010

Its been a while since my last rant. Since then I have purchased a ps3 and went to the bahamas for an amazing cruise. A lot has happened in the world as you all well know. But what has awakened my senses? Not El Nino, not the PNP or the AFP, not the vice presidential debates, (which was entertaining by the way) not even Ruffa versus Kris but that's right folks, ang kanang suso ni Anne curtis.


DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT ANNE!

But how did I know about this? Because of her plea to the public to refrain from posting or looking at her wardrobe malfunction. All this has done was to draw more attention to the issue and one can't help but wonder by making something out of nothing, is this a calculated move to draw attention to the issue because of their upcoming movie? And you know, I wouldn't doubt it one bit if it is, since after all she is a movie star, which is synonymous to self promotion.

Can you really stop people from looking at a young hot woman's breast? Kahit kanan lang yun, it is I must admit a sight to behold. What warm blooded hetero male wouldn't want to see that?

But what did this really do? Do I respect her less now? Unless your a pimple faced nose picking 14 year old adolescent who gets off at anything that shows skin, I highly doubt that this kind of exposure gets anyone who gets laid regularly titillated. I mean its nice to see, but no its not like I would just grab her tits when I get the chance to see her in person. Even if I want to.

Of course if our country wasn't made up of sexually inept turds, this wouldn't be an issue to begin with. But since we are, it is the talk of the town, which is sad. Janet Jackson did it in front of millions around the world and she did not issue any statements condemning people passing the snapshot of her boob did she? Vanessa Hudgens in all her naked glory, Paris Hilton even.

And look folks, Anne is not Sarah Geronimo. This plea is totally contradictory to the image she is trying to project to the public. As I have said, what she and her handlers should have done was to just nonchalantly ignored it, just like what Maricar Reyes did. And look at how her career has blossomed after that Hayden Kho episode?

HANGALAN 2010: Sino ang magiging kulelat?

Lets face it folks, whoever your candidate for the presidency is, its basically a three cornered fight between Noynoy Aquino, Manny Villar and yes Erap Estrada. If surveys are to be believed, its those three followed by Gibo Teodoro, Eddie Villanueva and Dick Gordon.

Then there are the bottom three: Jamby Madrigal, Nicanor Perlas, and JC Delos Reyes. And with that said, here lies the question: Sino ang magiging kulelat sa kanilang tatlo?


WHO WILL BRING UP THE REAR?

How Jamby managed some million votes to win as a Senator is really still beyond me, although if Lito Lapid managed to win, maybe I should not underestimate for a lack of a better word, the "taste" of our electorate. But I am willing to bet that Jamby wouldnt muster more than a million votes this time. Or can she?

Perlas and Delos Reyes have been appearing in all presidential debates on tv, radio, internet, baranggay hall, health center and beauty parlor, maximimizing their exposure before all their 15 minutes of fame is up. These two no matter how their "message" sounds good and all will be lucky if they can get 10,000 votes between them. Anything over would be a small miracle on its own.

So where are their votes going to come from? Let us not forget that Madrigal comes from the old rich elite who can use their money who can buy votes like the best of them. The two gentlemen on the other hand claim to be supported by organizations, whose memberships although I admit I do not know, probably number from 100-200 at best.

So who will be the Eddie Gil of this year's election? Speaking of Gil, at least he added some color to the elections when he ran, but I don't see any of these from Perlas or JC unless I consider JC's nervous ticks as entertaining. In fairness to Jamby she has provided some entertainment but nothing close to what Gil provided.

So Jamby, Nic, or JC? Who shall be it?

TUBIG!!!!!!

1 February 2010

Got a little busy folks. Hopefully everyone has been pre occupied watching Marlene Aguilar's displays of lunacy the past weeks or so.

Anyway, according to this report Las Pinas again has curtailed the rights of people from BF Paranaque for WATER!

AGUIRRE CORNER EL GRANDE

There is really no rhyme or reason to this except for GREED. How long must the good people of BF PARANAQUE has to suffer. I have never remembered a time where there was an adequate supply of water in BF.....ever. Except when we had a deep well which stopped working when it just ran dry after 10 or so years.

Cmon LAS PINAS worry about Moonwalk or Verdant Acres and leave BF alone! WTH!

I wanna see what MANNY VILLAR has to say about this.....

Breaking news: Kris Aquino nag AMOK!

15 January 2010

Kris Aquino in jealous rage, went to confront a certain Mayen Austria, a rumored girlfriend of James Yap according to a report in the Inquirer.net website.

DIDNT I TELL YOU TO DUMP JAMES?

If only Kris was as meticulous in choosing his men like her clothes, this would have never happened. Lets face it, this was a horribly matched couple from the start. A domineering, smart, popular, irritating, daughter of a former president and a cager from the boonies? Cmon now.

This was inevitable. It does not take a Madam Auring to know that this was bound to happen. Now the question is, is Kris brave enough or better yet, does Noynoy's image handlers think that Kris needs to get rid of Yap? We shall find out.

The report adds (if you were too lazy to click the link), Aquino went sugod to the house of the girl and made mura mura to the max the kabit of James. (Sorry, could'nt help it lol.) I mean what would push someone, much less like Kris who has an image to protect, to go to such lengths?

I'm not sure if there will be anymore information beyond what has been written, at least from Kris' side because I'm pretty sure they are in damage control mode as we speak but really Kris needs to get rid of James and start anew (yes for the umpteenth time.

There are a few things she could do right now.

She needs to find someone who is in the same intellectual level as her, not necessarily stature, because she has reached astronomical heights and it is impossible to find someone that can match her, at least in the Philippines.

She can just also use this to her advantage. Go out there and bash James in media, tell everyone what pushed her to do what she did. Use the abused wife card and surely, she'll get a lot of sympathy, and as we all know by now, sympathy=votes.

So Kris, do the right team and get rid of some dead weight. Go dump James and put him back to the Mcdonald's playpen you got him from.

Hangalan 2010: The Countdown (Series 3: Joseph Ejercito Estrada)



Joseph Ejercito Estrada

Party Affiliation: PMP (Partido ng Masang Pilipino)
Current Position: Former President of the Philippines/Actor
DOB: April 19, 1937
Mapua Institute of Technology
Undergraduate
Odds of winning the Presidency: 1-50

Every Filipino knows about him, and naturally everyone can name a reason why NOT to vote for him, but despite that for some masochistic reason, Estrada still possesses that charisma to elicit enough to support to put a scare into the leading candidates for the presidency.

I get Erap. He plays the masa card to the hilt. Uses his thespian skills to charm his way into a crowd after all these years. Can you blame him for exploiting his strengths and hiding his weaknesses?



But I am just hard pressed to believe that those who voted for him when he won the Presidency in a landslide in 1998, would vote for him again after all that he has done in his two plus years in office.

Maybe if I was just a real a-hole and wanted to play a cruel joke on Filipinos I would go Erap, but even with my personality, I just can't do it.

Why can't we have Erap as royalty? Like a King perhaps? or a Sultan? a Datu? He would be perfect for the job. He gets his spending money, gets the prestige of being a King, and the illusion that he is still in government. More importantly, this would satisfy his huge masa following to see him as King.

Whats going for him: As everyone knows, still enjoys massive support from the masses. Charismatic, experienced in government, has huge name recall.

What would hurt him: The disqualification case filed against him, succeeds, effectively prohibiting him from taking office.

Would win if: Villar, Teodoro, Aquino, and Villar take votes from each other, and in fact would just cancel each other out.

Change your life

This has totally changed my life. My closet looks waaaaay better. Life is good!




the japanese are amazing...(except for raping our women and pillaging our country of course)

What a trip

So kung si Efren me pag asa kay Angel....me pag asa ako ke Anne Curtis?

3 January 2010

Happy New Year folks. Hopefully all of us would have a great 0-10 ahead of us. By the way, there is a controversy brewing about what to call this year. The grammar police wants us to call it twenty ten while most people go with two thousand ten. Personally, I prefer 0-10, stress on the Oh and not uh.

Anyway on to more pressing issues like the rumored courtship (only Pinoy's do this I swear) of CNN Hero of the Year = Top internet Vote getter Efren Penaflorida of Angel Locsin.

BIGAT MO EFREN!
Watching Angel's interview on the BUZZ, I could not help but squirm when she kinda insinuated that Efren has more than a fighting chance to get her on his bed! I mean what the hell! Is that all it takes? Be a CNN Hero and you'll have a chance in snagging one of filmdom's hottest bodies? When is the next CNN poll? I wanna put my name in there and gather all my internet buddies and when I win it, go to ABS-CBN and take Anne Curtis!

WAIT FOR ME ANNE I'LL BE A HERO SOON!

Look at Kuya Ef, I mean look at him. Granted, Angel seems to be one who never says no to anyone, but this never happens in real life. I'm willing to bet that those days of pushing those kariton klasrums in the scorching heat of Cavite's afternoons has probably taken a toll on him. A few of those reality check brain cells has probably escaped him.

And wait a minute...showbiz ka na Kuya Ef?

Elibs den ako sa strategy ni Kuya Efren. Make his desire public to gain sympathy and put Angel in a precarious situation. Pag binasted nga naman sya ni Angel, negative ang magiging dating. Magiging matapobre si Angel etc. etc. A stroke of genius if you ask me!

Am I jealous? yes! not of his CNN recognition but the one in a million chance Kuya Efren has in shagging Angel Locsin. If this happens, watch out Anne Curtis because I'm coming for you. And that goes out to you too Maricar Reyes!

Remember this asshole?



Acoording to this report on yahoo news, the Department of Justice has FINALLY ok'd the indictment of the asshole quasi fashion designer WHO WAS CAUGHT on camera ACTING LIKE AN A1-A-HOLE in his shopping spree in DUTY FREE Philippines last year.

What surprised me is that this a-hole is still alive!

It's Christmas...Where the Hell are my Godparents???

Growing up, one of the christmas traditions I did not fully enjoy was recieving christmas presents from my godparents. I vaguely remember getting one present from each of my godparents that I know of, but that's about it.

Christmas in the province was worse. Since I did not have any godparents there, I would tag along my cousins and siblings when they go to their godparents and witness them get 20 pesos while I get a measly 5. The injustice!

And as I wrap presents for my godchildren I ask: "Where are my godparents?"

I know of three, as I think back in the day, godparents were limited into a manageable number unlike now where it is not uncommon for a child to have 10 or more, which at first glance is INSANE, but not after you realize that 80 percent of them vanishes within the first five years of the child's life, just like what has happened to me and my childrens' godparents.

Anyway, my godparents are: Rey De Vera, Dra. Nela Lee Millar and Mary Jane Madamba.

From what I know, Mr. De Vera is the brother of the president of Alpha Records Corporation, Buddy De Vera, at least according to my mother. I kinda remember going to his office once and getting a Superman shirt one Christmas day, but beyond that, NADA.

On the other hand, I did meet Dra. Nela Lee Millar as an adult. I brought my son suffering from some sort of skin allergy. She did not charge us for anything although she barely remembered who the hell I was or who my parents were. I am actually surprised that she basically took what I said on face value and proceeded to see my kid without charging me a penny. You gotta think that she has probably lost count of how many godchildren she has as she is a pediatrician after all.

I came to know of Mary Jane Madamba as a kid when my aunt would always point out to me that the lady who is in the original Knorr Sabaw ng Sinigang commercials was indeed my ninang. After a while I just got annoyed by this fact as everyone in my household would make sure to point this out no matter what I was doing.

I googled all of them but could not find out anything about Rey De Vera. Buddy de Vera is out there as the owner of Alpha Records but no information is out there about Rey. There is a listing of Dra. Millar at the Medical Center Paranaque and I do know this is accurate, so it is nice to know that she is out there.

On the other hand, Mary Jane Madamba is interesting because it shows that beside the knowledge I have that she was a commercial model, she apparently is the Miss Teen International First Runner Up for 1966. I am not sure if this is the same person but as I type this my mother is already asleep and I could not get a confirmation from her.

I am not going to second guess my parents' choice of godparents were but you just gotta admit that they were not good choices. According to the church, godparents should serve as second parents to their godchildren. How are they going to do it when they barely know you. One example of this is when movie stars being asked to be godparents to kids of regular folks, such as Joey De Leon, yes that Joey De Leon who is supposedly my sister's godfather.


MR. DE LEON MAY UTANG KA DAW SA UTOL KO



So what is it that I want? Well if they are childless millionaires looking for a sole hair to their riches, I would gladly step up to the plate and oblige. But really, all I want is acknowledgement perhaps, just to validate my christian existence.

Let this be a little reminder to all of us godparents to try not to forget our godchildren. Also, to parents out there, only ask people to be your children's godparents if you are certain that these people would figure prominently in your child's life, and of course, yung magandang mag pa aguinaldo!

Merry Christmas Folks!

Here's one for you folks

I guess everyone is going crazy with all their christmas shopping and whatnot but here's something that has helped me dealing with all the wrapping.....

New Darlings of Philippine Sports: Pinay Charlie's Angels

11 December 2009

In a welcome break from Martial law and those mother fucking Ampatuans, 3 young, fresh, talented, athletic and most importantly, BLAZING HOTTTT women provided the country with some achievement we can smile about. Janice Lagman, Rani Ann Ortega and Camille Alarilla won gold medals in taekwondo in the ongoing 25th Southeast Asian Games in Vientianne, Laos.


THREE GOLDEN SMILES


In my book, these women are ones to be really proud about. They are the real life "CHARLIE'S ANGELS"! If you might have noticed by now, I just cant get over the fact that these women are just goddamn gorgeous!!! According to reports these three ladies just came from Egypt to win the championship in the same event a short time ago, and now they go to Laos and kicked some serious ass!

TOO HOT FOR TAEKWONDO

With the megawatt smile these three possesses I would not be a bit surprised if they start gracing magazine covers and television shows as soon as they get off the plane from Laos.

Now the most important part..who among these three I like the most? They are all hot but if I could have the luxury of picking just one, even if they came in threes, my favorite would be Rani!

So ladies thank you very much for carrying the country's pride out there and no thanks to the idiot non-sport people running the country's sports programs. I'm willing to bet that your parents were the one who gave you most of the support you needed to get to become world class athletes.

Soak it up, enjoy it and rest assured i'll be the first one to get a copy of whatever magazine you choose to have your pretty faces published. Love ya! (LMAO)

SUNDOT KULANGOT (quick shots on news around cyberspace)

10 December 2009

Tigas talaga ng pagmumukha ni Pangulong Kutong lupa. Biruin mong nagkaka diskusyunan na sa kongreso dahil sa katarantaduhan nitong pag dedeklara ng martial law e, ni anino nito hindi sumulpot sa kongeso? Tang ina talaga oo.
***

Kung hindi nyo pa alam isa pang dating kapamilyang nananamlay ang career ang lumipat na sa syete, si Bayani Agbayani. sya daw ang ipantatapat ng gma sa papalakas na ng papalakas na showtime ni Vhong Navarro. Ang title daw e Bigay Todo (?)
***


Panis si Manny ke Tiger. Si Tiger 10 bebots na ang sumusulpot, si Manny ni isa ala pang umaamin.
***
Tindi ng Comelec, dalawa ng oposisyon governors ang inagawan ng pwesto. E bat si Gloria nde nyo matanggal tanggal?
***


Kagandahan ke Tiger, walang pinapalampas. Bata, matanda, brunette, blonde, me suso o wala, pangit man o maganda, walang sinasayang. Parang kumakain sa buffet, lahat tinitikman. Just how I like it!
***

Speaking of papalakas na Showtime, pati si Willie apektado na. Nagtampururot sa Wowowee dahil hindi daw inacknowledge ng ABS ang pagkapanalo nila sa Anak TV tapos nag segway sa pagsasabing hindi daw sila kaaway ng Showtime. Dude, ikaw tong nagbibigay kulay eh, sa pagsasalita mo kinumpirma mo na apekted ka. Sana hindi mo na lang pinansin.

***

Kala ko ba Martial Law? bat buhay pa ang mga Ampatuan? Talagang wala ng magaling na nagawa itong mga asa Malacanang. Kahit sa Martial Law bokya pa rin. At least sina Marcos, perfect ang implementation!

***

Oh nga pala nakita nyo ba yung anak ni Gretchen Barretto nung tumanggap ng trophy ang nanay nya bilang Best Actress whatever sa Star Awards? Whoa what a brat! She rolled her eyes and mouthed "OMG" when her mother referred to her father as "her lover." Hanapin nyo sa you tube kung meron. I mean if my kid pulled that kind of shit.......

***

Mabalik tayo sa Showtime, pinapanood ko talaga to. Although I do know na kopya lang din naman to sa Talentadong Pinoy na ginaya sa Britain's Got Talent na baka gayahin di ng Bigay Todo, which makes me come to the conclusion na: WAG NA TAYONG UMASA NG INNOVATIVE PINOY SHOW in the near future. NOT GONNA HAPPEN.

***

I mean Anne Curtis has grown on me, I still don't think she's Megan Fox hot (who is anyway?) but she is pretty. Then Vice Ganda....what can I say, this person is hilarious. Even the two rock stars add something to the party.

***

Come to think of it, 3 of those I named that could replace Willie Revillame are now in the afternoon timeslot namely Vhong Navarro, Bayani Agbayani and Ryan Agoncillo. Akalain mo nga naman ano.....

***

Can someone answer why I'm still a die hard Golden State Warrior fan?

***

Does anyone remember Manolet Ripol (sp?)??? Wala lang....

***

Im not totally against movie stars in showbusiness BUT....if Lito Lapid still wins as a senator after he already said na hindi sya bagay sa Senado....THERE MUST BE SOMETHING REALLY GODDAMN WRONG WITH US PEOPLE.

***
So hindi nagpakamatay si Hayden KHO....who the fuck cares? Why is a respected lawyer like Lorna Kapunan represents this dude? oh yeah I forgot...Dr. Vicki's money.

Why Manny won't do a Tiger

3 December 2009

Unless you have been living under a rock or in a state of coma for the past week or so, you must have heard of the sportsworld's squeaky clean poster child Eldrick Woods embroiled in a extra marital brouhaha with not one, not two but three (so far) bimbos.


THEY BOTH JUST DID IT


Interestingly enough this comes on the heels of another sports supermega star, our very own Manny Pacquiao in a similar situation albeit with a much less hotter hoe than those of Tiger's conquests: Krista Ranillo.


HOW CAN YOU CHEAT ON THESE??

There are a lot of similarities about the two, both are at the top of their games in their respective sports, both with hot wives (although again Tiger gets the advantage here Elin > Jinkee) both Nike endorsers, etc. etc.

But this is where the similarity ends. Tiger, although half assed went out and released a statement admitting what he termed "transgressions" and apologized to his family while Pacman goes out and denies the whole thing, calls it a publicity stunt and then apologizes to Krista Ranillo! LMFAO.



TEAM PACQUIAO

So now you ask: Why can't Manny do a Tiger? Admit that he was romping with Matt Ranillo's unica hija, apologize to his wife then go on and beat Floyd Mayweather to a pulp?


TEAM TIGER



Why? Because Manny is a Filipino guy, and a Filipino icon. Hard to admit but as a filipino guy, this is what our culture has taught us, it is innate, second nature. We might admit to killing someone, robbing even (although GMA might have something to say about that) but never ever admit to infidelity.

Magkamatayan man, wag na wag aamin. Kahit nakita ka ng nakipaghalikan (ehem!) kahit nakita na ang webpage mong punong puno ng pakikipaglampungan mo sa kalaguyo mo, (ehem again!) no way. Sad but true.


Has anyone encountered any Pinoy who admitted to their wife that they are seeing someone else? No effing way. To their drinking buddies yes, but never to their wives. That is just how it is.

Cant blame the people's champ here. I mean his dad probably has never admitted to Nanay Dionisia all his "transgressions" up to now. Daddy Pacman is still to tis day probably is saying that he has never comitted any indiscretions ever. And this is what Manny has learned to be the norm.

How many times have we heard the lame excuse "magkaibigan lang kami", or "walang masamang nangyari sa amin" or the reversal "madumi lang kasi ang isip mo"? This is what we've heard. We are taught tht nothing good comes out of admitting stuff like this. Better lie to your grave than to man up and admitting it.

Manny should think twice about this. Woods is expected to survive this, unless of course more and more women would come out in the open which would make this issue longer than its prescribed expiration date, but this will pass. The American public would forget about this. Tiger had his fun, said his apology so now everyone is going to move on.

Manny? Oh no. This is going to linger on. This will not go away. Especially now that Manny is running for congress. This Krista issue will be visited, revisited and visited again, unless Manny owns up to this.

Unlike the american sports fan, the Philippines is a whole different ball game. We want our idols to be role models, morally upright, someone who can do no wrong. Saintly, I must say. That is the dilemma facing a Filipino icon.

We revere our idols just like how we revere the saints of our Roman Catholic faith, and that my friends is the problem.

I don't think Manny would risk tarnishing his venerable (in his mind at least) image in the eyes of 90 million Filipinos. He is probably thinking that the masa would never forgive him for something like this. He might be under estimating the compassion of the masa towards him but can you blame him?

So don't expect Manny to come out with a statement written up by some lawyer just like Tiger did. IT WILL NEVER HAPPEN. Manny will never own up to anything. Not to the guy who ponied up 59.99 for his latest pay-per-view fight, not to anyone, not even to his wife. And why should he? He can't.

Happy Thanksgiving

26 November 2009

Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays. It's festive like Christmas but without the added pressure of gift-giving. Its about food and family, what a holiday should be about. Even if it kinda commemorates the white man's slaughter of Native Americans, it has evolved nicely. I do have one problem about Thanksgiving though.....

TURKEY.

I do not eat turkey. I mean I have had it in several occassions but I do not enjoy it. I reall can't pinpoint what I exactly do not like about it. It could be it's massive size, it's bland taste or perhaps a combination of the two. I do not seek it, I do not crave for it. I guess if I had the choice between turkey or goat I would do turkey but I just don't like it at all.

Turkey is on my list of food items I can live without. Others are:
  • Goat - The smell bothers me.
  • Brownies - Lola said there's marijuana on them. Stuck with me to this day.
  • Milk - Cant drink a glass, or a cup straight up. Can tolerate it in halo halos though.
  • Cake - The icing makes me nauseaus.
  • Balut - Never had one ever. never will. Unless I'm a contestant on The Amazing Race.
  • Adidas - Just the thought of those feet stepping on their own poop makes it so unappetizing.
  • Papaitan - Poop. Plain and simple.
What's good though is the wifey do not like turkey as well so there's no conflict there. Although my kids are weirded out of a household without turkey on the dinner table on Thanksgiving day. Another reminder for them on how "filipinoey" my household is.

So instead of turkey, in comes lechon manok. A nice size chicken cooked in my old reliable turbo broiler. With some kare kare, crispy pata, dinuguan, pansit, veggies, and kakanin my Thanksgiving dinner is set.

You know what else besides the food and family I look forward to during Thanksgiving? BLACK FRIDAY BABY!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE!

Claudine Barretto moves to GMA 7

25 November 2009

(Note: report now official via www.pep.ph)

According to unconfirmed reports, lifelong Kapamilya star Claudine Barretto has signed a two year exclusive contract to join GMA 7. Details are still skechy but expect reports to come out about this in a few hours.


WILL THIS GET YOUR CAREER BACK ON TRACK?

Claudine was last seen in the teleserye Iisa Pa Lamang with Gabby Concepcion LAST YEAR! This is not how you treat your supposed "princess". So obviously Claudine has felt neglected by her home studio. In fact I don't think I have'nt seen her in anything even on TV interviews or the like. I actually thought she was pregnant again or sick.

The move was probably expected by some quarters, evidenced by her earlier signing of a movie contract by Viva Films but still, this is a shock to many as Claudine is identified with ABS-CBN since she started with them when she was a kid. In addition, husband Raymart Santiago is a GMA contract star and GMA bigwigs are the couple's principal sponsors. Also, a reported rift with Angel Locsin also comes to mind although this probably did not factor in her decision to switch channels. She is also noticeably absent in the latest Christmas station ID of ABS CBN.



She probably felt that she is being cast aside in favor of younger Kapamilya stars like Kim Chiu, KC Concepcion and the like and rightfully so. I mean they can give someone like Erich Gonzales a teleserye but not Claudine? That is a huge insult if I ever seen one. She needs to look after her own welfare.

A good move for Claudine IMHO. There are no established queens/stars in GMA 7, except for maybe Marian Rivera and Regine Velasquez. In GMA she does not have to share the limelight unlike in ABS CBN where no matter what she does she will just be a notch below Sharon Cuneta, Kris Aquino, Lorna Tolentino and even Judy Ann Santos.

Impact wise, I dunno if this really affects ABS CBN that much since Claudine has not had a show in a year but if GMA finds a nice vehicle for Claudine, like a prime time teleserye, Kapamilya bigwigs might be scratching their heads for letting her go.

Why I'm wasting brain cells about this topic is beyond me. The only explanation I can muster is I'm starting a 7 day weekend due to the Thanksgiving holiday.

No translation necessary
