Kasi it's like talking to someone na bobo kasi eh. Kaw? Di ka din ba maiirita? plus, ricky lo could have said sorry or kahit man lang an apology right? Eh hindi eh, parang "ok, moving on" lang. :D
wala namang nilambast, molybdenum. mabait pa nga si anne kung tutuusin. regardless of whatever their respective statuses are, tama ang sagot ni anne kasi bastos ang approach ni ricky. magtanong ka ba naman about too personal questions AT isingit mo ba naman ang pangalan ni Lea Salonga na wala naman sa movie, if I were in Anne's shoes, mas sarcastic siguro ang sagot ko kay Ricky. paminsan minsan dapat sinusupalpal mo ang mga taong "feeling" magaling or nagmamagaling.
I like how Manny did his interview. He can make his interviewee relax. Manny listened to what Anne had to say.
Ricky didn't listen. All he had in his head were his questions to extract the ho-hum Pinoy connection answers he always had to have in his article. Sooooo formulaic, soooo passé!
It was ricky lo who was rude and stupid with his questions, oqening line pa lng kaka asar na. Tapos mag interview ka habang nagbabasa ng txt. Obviously he was not prepared. And to bring up a name of someone who was not in the movie twice. Totally uncalled for.
I have to agree with Anon 8:12 (solidly). Granted, the rest of you do not like Ricky Lo's awkwardness, but the way Anne answered Ricky's questions is rude. She should have known better. However, to anon 8:12, I doubt insecure si Anne kay Lea.
At anon 7:49, don't you think that being sarcastic is MORE rude!? I salute the likes of Amanda Seyfried and Suraj Sharma for being more considerate. Eh si Anne H., it seems that the "diva" and "prima donna" rumors against her are becoming true. Peace.
lambastment. by golly, this is yet another classic case of someone trying to pass himself/herself as someone with a gift for words and ends up as a lost (neither here nor there) wordsmith. comments posted in this site have been very entertaining for the most part and they are amusing and instructive in a lot of ways too. however, there are a lot of crimes committed here vis-a-vis grammar, language, and the written word. I've read it all too often said here in the articles' comments section that we should not be snarky, naysay, or nitpick our fellow posters but admittedly, there is no excuse to these barbarisms they chronically commit. Regardless of the language used, one must always try and labor to appropriate it well. Worth mentioning in this regard then are the legions of witty bekis who have had such deft mastery of the dynamics of the language they chose to use as to bend it to their will while at the same time engaging in artful wordplay and puns in their posts.
The claim that Anne felt insecure because of Lea is absurd. For starters, Anne might not even know her and even if she does, why should she be "insecure" of her?
The problem with many Filipinos, Ricky Lo being not the least of which, is that we tend to be presumptuous. We presume that the celebrated of us (e.g. "Lea Salonga", "Imelda Marcos") is acclaimed all over the world. We stubbornly insist on "connecting" ourselves and creating a link, no matter how remote, with famous people. How many times have we seen and heard it reported on our local news channels that someone who is 1/16th or 1/20th Filipino has won this or that award in this or that country? How many times have we been asked by a fellow Filipino we casually met here or abroad if we know this or that person just because he/she found out that the person he/she knows and you his/her new acquaintance came from the same city or province?
Think before you react.
Saying that Anne's conduct to Ricky was outright discrimination and that her response upon being asked about Lea was a sign of her insecurity is not only premature but a product of a myopic, judgmental mind.
A good reference to Anne's attitude would be her past interviews, including those she gave to US-based Filipino journalists like Ruben Nepales.
As a gauge/measure upon which claims of her being discriminatory would be set against, methinks that there is no better method of comparison than this. Anne with Ricky Lo the Filipino and Anne with Ruben Nepales the Filipino.
but Anne Hathaway IS Anne Hathaway. Ricky Lo should have come prepared with intelligent questions. He even handed his phone to Anne w/c I think is unethical. Ricky should have read it for her instead. AND to ask if she was ever been poor and hungry? WTF right? :))
The way Ricky asked questions is different than what Manny does. Sabi nga it is not about the question but how you asked it. Ricky's tone in questioning is different thanthe other one. And I noticed that Ricky kept on interrupting Anne, she sometimes was not able to finish her sentence. Anyway, by watching this two videos, I never finished Ricky's interview but bitin ako sa interview ni Manny. :-p
I agree that ricky lo was really bobo in this interview. BUT Anne's response at the end of the interview was a major turn off. Gawd, will it cost her a million bucks to invite fans to see her movie. She was so rude.
Manny's is relaxed and conversational. Mas interesting panoorin, pareho sila ni Anne na light ang mood and may flow ang usap. Si Ricky Lo eh parang mema lang at pilit pinapasok si Lea Salonga sa usapan! Yan tuloy, nabastos ng di oras! Umpisa pa lang, mali na sya. Tsk tsk.
Defensive si Anne H kasi alam nya pinoy si Ricky Lo, so from the start alam na nya na ikokonek si lea sa mga questions. Pero over sya sa pagka defensive, lumalabas na insecure sya. Ask all those who watched her movie and ung play ni lea, they are the ones who know how good lea was... Insecure si Anne H.
nakow naman molybdenum, kung talagang me descrimination n naganap eh di sana inokray okray din ni anne si manny kasi its obvious na pinoy si manny.ang sabihn mo hindi talaga maayos nag interview yang ricky lo mo.
The title of the interview should have been --- "The Insecure Anne Hathaway!" Korek to those who commented na insecure nga si Anne Hathaway kay Lea. She's very sarcastic. Wala sya sa kalingkingan ni Lea.
Im sorry, Ricky has been a "journalist" far too long than I could remember. But I never once liked him. I find him so boring and trying hard. I never understood also why they even allow him to face big stars. Seriously, he doesn't sound and look credible.
I read Ricky Lo's article on wikipedia and it was mentioned there that he is best remembered for articles like the break-up of Martin & Pops, the break-up of Dingdong & Karylle. Ano ba yan! BTW, mentioned na dun about this Anne Hathaway brouhaha... LOL.
Anon 5:56, no he's not. Ito nga si Manny the Movie Guy nainterview si Anne representing ABS-CBN. Pati si Ruben Napales represented Inquirer. Ricky was the one representing PhilStar.
Truelagen!!! Saka interested sya kay anne na mismong subject ng interview while ricky lo is interested kay lea. Eto n nman tong maisingit lang na pinoy pride chuchu. Haaaayyyyy. Hndi alam ni rcky lo ang concept ng yolo. Minsan k lng magkkaroon ng opportunity na mainterview ang gaya ni anne di mo pa tinodo. At for sure last nya na rin ito!!! Hahaha
I don't know Manny the Movie Guy, but yes, he made Anne feel so comfortable in the interview, so it looked like she was enjoying talking to him! Great job, Manny!
i don't picky c Anne kasi kung picky xa eh di sana walang interview na nangyari.. sablay lng tlaga ang approach ni ricky lo.. tama ba nman paulit2 banggit c lea salongga eh show ni anne ang topic..
same here! DOuble standard lang tayo eh porke hollywood. What if local celebrity gumawa nyan? Hindi talaga maganda mag-interview si ricky lo dinaig pa ang first timer, may idiot cards pa at habang nagsasalita si anne, nagbabasa we can here it in the audio, ano ba yan ricky lo?! pero Anne should've been nicer lalo na nung sinabi na mag-invite sya, tama ba namang ipasa nya kay ricky lo dahil imbyerna sya eh movie nya yun. Next time sana kay Boy abunda and the likes na lang ibigay para hindi nakakahiya sya pa naman nagrepresent sa Philippines.
I like manny the movie guy and obviously, anne likes him too. Sana lang wag oily face next time,ang dugyot tignan...
Hollywood stars, when promoting their movies, dont talk about their personal lives, but they focus on the movie itself... talk show hosts Jimmy Kimmel or Jay Leno knows best how to make their interviewees comfortable and they keep it light. We have to keep in mind that these are Hollywood stars and notpinoy artista na puro iyak and drama during interviews.
lol lahat na lang ng bumabastos sa pinoy i boycott!! puro boycott!! pag bastos i boycott kaagad di ba pwedeng wag mo na lang silang tangkilikin total personal choice naman? marami namang bitches dito ha? yung ngang iba walang k maging bitch.. social climber pa.. pero bumibitch pa rin? hahahaha
i think manny's interview is way better because he was able to put anne at ease and kept her engaged and open during the interview. she was very pleasant and even shared personal info (about her getting married), which showed that she was comfortable.
unlike in ricky's interview, she gave one word answers and was standoffish probably because the rapport was not there. he also kept cutting her off and his questions were very shallow.
Who is that guy? He is good. He listens and based his questions based on Anne's answers. I guess that makes for a good interviewer. Listen and formulate your questions based on the answer then you can squeeze in your listed questions without being irrelevant.
I think the problem with the Ricky Lo interview was that he went there unprepared AND wanting to impress Anne Hathaway with the fact that he knows Lea Salonga and Lea knows her. That's why he was so distracted (unless he was just stoned). Ricky Lo should have focused on Anne and the interview. I didn't find Anne bitchy. She was uncomfortable because of Ricky Lo's demeanor.
I agree! Also guess he is not aware of the difference between Philippine showbiz and Hollywood not to mention Anne Hathaway's caliber and status as an actress. As an interviewer, and as a journalist (as PhilStar claim he is) Ricky Lo should be aware and sensitive about being "politically correct" and what is acceptable/unacceptable in a conversation.
I was watching his Saturday Show on GMA. They were interviewing Gloria Romero. Ganung-ganun ang pag interview ni Ricky Lo kay Anne. Hindi na naisip iba ang culture sa Holloywood.
Manny the Movie Guy isn't that articulate like Ricky Lo but his energy level was a winner. I think that made Anne really comfortable. Ricky Lo was kinda mumbling, and his diction sucked (I honestly couldn't understand half of what he was saying). Lessons learned: You don't have to be perfect in grammar or American accent, as long as you establish rapport with the interviewee, you are energetic, you stick with your point of discussion, and you speak clearly, then you wouldn't be receiving sarcastic and cringe-worthy answers from them.
I guess it's time they let Ricky Lo rest from interviewing international stars. Manny the Movie Guy, Boy Abunda, or Kris Aquino should be sent instead to avoid another embarrassment.
Hahaha AnonymousJanuary 19, 2013 at 5:47 PM, I've seen quite a few interviews of Boy Abunda with famous international stars, so far, the magic mirror hasn't been "put up". I don't know, but have you ever seen Boy Abunda ask his international interviewees questions involving the magic mirror? I think he does that for showbiz oriented scoops/local celebrities with issues. Hehe! ;)
Please read, Manny the Movie Guy isn't that articulate like Ricky Lo. It DID NOT say that Manny the Movie Guy isn't that articulate UNLIKE Ricky Lo. It is said there that they are both not articulate, but Manny was a winner.
It is really about making your interviewee feel comfortable from the start, asking the right questions to get sincere answers, listening to your interviewee and throw good follow-up questions, not strictly following the guide questions on your cue card, researching beforehand for fresh/unasked questions, and just being sensitive overall.
MannytheMovieGuy made me feel interested as to what he's going to ask Anne next, and what Anne's answer's going to be. It was not his bubbly persona that stood out (heck, it might also dangerously come off as OA to some). He listened well and made Anne feel important through his witty comments. He was funny, yes, but still stuck to the topic (Anne as Fantine, and Les Mis.
Ricky Lo asked similar questions, but he set the mood wrong right from the start, and got worse as the interview progressed.
Remember John Arcilla being interviewed by Boy Abunda on Ikaw Na (Bandila)? Really awkward. As if a fight's going to start anytime. It was so painful to watch that it made me feel like switching the channel.
Sa Hollywood kasi nagpapainterview sila to talk about tr movie not their personal life! Kasi sa pinas nagprpromote ng movie personal na tanong at hindi about sa movie! Tapos si Ricky lo tinanong pa kung naranasan chuchu magutom hahaha
Aliw yung interview ni manny! Si Ricky lo kabang kaba tas ang daming hawak and while sumasagot si Anne eh may nahulog pa sa kanya! Hahahahahaha dapat kasi pinaghandaan lol
Ricky Lo--- epic fail! I don't understand why they keep on sending him to cover Hollywood stars! If I were Anne, I would have been so pissed too. I have nothing against Lea Salonga (She's the epitome of perfection for me) but this interview has nothing to do with Lea and questions should have been about this film. Anne even tried to be nice the first time he mentioned Lea and she even looked happy reading the text but it was just too much when Ricky Lo did it again.
Manny on the other hand was so alive and you can sense that he really knew what he was talking about.
I agree. Why insert Lea Salonga in the interview? And to actually show the text from his phone? It's unprofessional. Mention Lea once is fine. But don't keep talking about her. This interview is about Anne and Les Miserables. There is a difference in interviewing a local Filipino artist and a foreign artist. The interviewer would have to consider the cultural differences. Ricky Lo was also unprepared in the interview. It seems like he didn't even watch the movie.
Manny The Movie Guy, obviously did his homework. He came prepared and was knowledgeable about the subject. He formed his questions around Anne's answers., not just reading a list of questions he prepared like Ricky Lo. He made Anne at ease which Anne positively responded to. She gave witty answers, joked with him and even talked about her age and wedding. This is how you do an interview. Ricky Lo should take notes.
naprovoke lang si ate, hahahah for sure.. base sa nababasa ko dito...tayo ang sira..amerikana siya, iba ang culture nila sa atin.. wag natin expect na kagaya natin sila at aayun sila ayun sa kultura natin...baka nga talagang nakakapikon lang si RL. dapat nanunuod siya ng mga foreign interviews baka mag ka Idea siya kung paano niya ba dapat sinundot yung mga tanong niya.
I don't think Anne was bastos. She tried promoting the movie, the very reason why the interview was done. But sadly, Ricky didn't seem to be interested in her movie.
Go with the flow si Manny kaya comfortable si anne si Ricky lo ilan beses siningit si lea salonga sa interview eh about the movie naman! I don't think picky si Anne kasi if picky siya bakit pa nagpainterview sobrang "stupid" lang ni Ricky magtanong
Lagi naman matamlay maginterview yan si ricky lo.super boring magtanong at alang rapport sa iniinterview.pls lng let the younger 1s do it wag lang yung baklang may kakambal at yung social climber.....
Akala kasi ni Ricky Lo he can always fool people on his level of "competence" kung meron may. His interview with Anne proves that sooner or later, your true worth and competence (again kung meron man) will show. At nag tweet pa siya ng: Anne Hathaway, I will always remember you in 'Princess Diaries.' Hehehe!" Lalo mo lang pinababa ang sarili mo, Ricky.
Ricky Lo can good a good writer but definitely not an interviewer. I've watched about 3 of his interviews with international stars. All I can say is that he is so BORINNNNNGGGG.
GMA 7, pls naman stop sending Ricky Lo to do interviews with international stars na, he could write but he's not competent and doesn't have the skills to do an interview, even with our local stars, napakaboring nya, kahit as host, he bores me to hell. Magsulat na lang sya, dun ok pa sya,But Anne Hathaway went way too low, when she said "Why don't u invite them?" She was pissed off, ok, but she could have ended the conversation with tact since tactless na rin lang naman yung nag-interview sa kanya.napasama din tuloy tingin ko sa kanya, imbes na si Ricky LOW lang ang nakakahiya,.
If you google Anne Hathaway makikita mo na rude talaga sya que sa interviews o co-star like what Joseph Gordon-Levitt said. Yung mga tanong kasi ni Ricky Lo ay pangshowbiz dito sa Pinas at nakikisakay na nga lang c Anne tungkol kay Lea Salonga, para pa syang fan na message-message kuno. Isa pa naging defensive si Anne dahil baka itong mapersonal na interviewer na ito ay matanong sya sa picture nyang walang panty lately na nakita na lahat. Maski nga kay Matt Lauer sa TV interview, rude si Anne.
she has a right to be rude. she is an artist, not a celebrity, and she values her craft. the biggest difference between pinoy actors and those in Hollywood is these artists try to maintain the strongest presence of craftsmanship to their work. Here in the Philippines, our actors are hungry for attention and not for the work they are able to produce. the Filipinos value more the intrigues and kilig-kilig in their roles rather than focusing on what difference did their roles make in the lives of the people who watch them. Did you ever wonder why there has been no Filipino movie ever nominated in the Oscars? The reason is that our artists try to focus more on overacting in their movies rather than honing their crafts and create this simple emotion that touches the moviegoers lives. that is the major difference, all the other countries nominated in the film focuses more on the influence their film makes to society rather than how their fans would love it. That is why I believe that the Indie film industry of the Philippines has more class than those of the other major film outfits. the movies they produce have depth, have stories, and have the basics of good storytelling instead of just focusing on selling the movie to make a profit.
Bastos si Anne Hathaway. Whatever way you look at it. Ricky was polite the whole way through. Umpisa pa lang, ayaw na sagutin ni Anne yung question about weight loss. What's up with that? She must have been having a baaaad day.
duh, marami nang tinanong nyan. siya lang ang maarte. actually bitch talaga siya. buti na lang dahil dito sa interview na ito, nalaman ng mga tao na she is in fact a bitch. sana inisip nya rin na hindi taga america ang mag-iinterview sa kanya. so most probably iba yung style ng mga tanong natin. sa sunod kung ayaw nilang tinatanong ng mga ganyang bagay, i-screen muna nila yung mga questions ng mga interviewer.
Waaay before pinalabas yung les mis, sinabi na ni anne na ayaw niyang pag-usapan yung tungkol sa paglose niya ng weight. Ricky lo should have done research first ng hindi nasosopla.
Plus, di din sinagot ni anne, she just said dont do the fantine diet, whatever it is, ayaw nya talagang pag usapan, its just that marunong lang talaga magdala si manny
teh sa US sensitive na issue lalo na sa mga "HOLLYWOOD CELEBRITIES" ang tungkol sa weight loss dahil konti issue lang akusahan na sila na anorexic or bulimic kaya ayaw nya pag usapan yun tungkol dun!
The problem with Ricky Lo is: 1) He had to say I have this important friend over and over again as if to bloat his importance as a journalist, 2) He only asked Anne once about how she prepared for the role. Other than that everything was trying to get a sob story about the life of Anne Hathaway. Akala niya yata interview dapat yun for "Wish ko lang!" program. In fairness to him, he was only catering to what some people want to hear na gumapang siya sa lusak and finally nagtagumpay. Trite! 3) Finally, he tried to get a 5 second clip asking Anne to say something to Lea. I love Lea but we have to understand who is the bigger star. I guess to Mr. Ricky Lo it would have been a good sound bite sa primetime news. Sa pilipinas kasi pagkatapos ng bawat interview panghuli parati na sasabihin ng interviewer, Oh sige! Invite mo na sila sa movie mo or gig mo.
kung si matt lauer nga tinatarayan ni anne, si ricky lo pa kaya. Feelingera siya hindi naman ako nagalingan sa kanya as fantine. Mas ok pa din si uma thurman. Anyway mas ok itong interview na ito he came prepared at smart ang mga tanong.
The reason why she doesn't want to talk about the weight loss is because she doesn't want other kids to follow what she did to achieve that weight. It wasn't being bastos. She did try to get into the spirit of the interview when Ricky Lo mentioned Leah. In fairness to Mr. Ricky Lo ginagawa lang niya yung tingin niya gustong marinig ng mga viewers na kesyo bilib si Anne sa mga Filipino. He should have talked more about the movie and less about her as a showbiz personality.
@10;08- you ask about the movie, the movie , di yung weight, poverty or lea, ricky lo deserves it, akala nya matatakot si anne sa kanya, ayan ang difference ng interviewer from 1st and developing country, buti di tinanong ni ricky what is your feet size, fav underwear, first thing you do and last thing you do ekekek,
I agree that Ricky Lo's interview lacked substance and depth plus the thing with fishing anything Filipino out of Anne was plain stupid. However, Anne's "why don't you invite them" comment was out of the line too. It's her movie after all and no matter how famous she is, she could have at least acknowledged her fans. A simple message would have sufficed.
nakaka-hiya ito para sa Pilipinas, ewan kung bakit sya lagi pinapadala sa mga interview na ganyan,
AnonymousJanuary 19, 2013 at 10:08 PM sabi ng mga babae, ok lang daw na tanungin kung pano nag lose ng weight but NOT kung pano naibalik, at napaka-personal na question the interview is about the MOVIE not her, sanay kasi tayo na kadramahan ang interview....
Agree anon9:23pm ...naimbey baka matanong pa ng much personal question.. Si ate anne nmn kasi bakit nga naman hindi nagpanty.. E fantine p nman ang role niya.. divah!!... Hahaha!!!
I think the interview would have to improve tremendously to even qualify as "painful to watch". Aside from the inapprorpiate and very personal questions, i think what irritated and annoyed Anne Hathaway was Ricky Lo's "nervous laugh"... it seemed as if he was not sensing Anne's annoyance by him.
in ferness mas matagal yung usapan nina manay ricky kympara kay ateng manny. sa haba ng usapan ii-lang beses lang ngumit si anne...bakit? walang ramport si manay ricky.
Let's set aside the pronunciation and diction issues of Ricky Lo, his worst sin was he seemed unprepared, awkward, distracted, and, worst of all for an interviewer, had no awareness of what's happening and how the interviewee is feeling/acting. As an interviewer, it's your job to make the subject comfortable, engaged, and continue to communicate. Kahit ma-annoy ang subject basta engaged at communicative, it would still have been a good interview. Ang nangyari with Anne e she shut down... the worst thing that could happen in an interview. And, I agree, I think he focused too much on the fact na kilala niya si Lea Salonga and was trying to make a connection between Anne and Lea. I think Anne truly admires Lea pero I think because of Ricky's badgering on the Lea subject, medyo na-put in a bad light si Lea with Anne (kahit na walang involvement si Lea)... Too bad.
i dont think anne has any right to treat ricky lo that way. regardless of whether the interviewer asked the most stupidest questions. Her being an international actress doesnt make her any better than other people.
Well, it should also apply to Ricky... him being the interviewer doesn't make him any better than her and giving him the right to put her in an awkward position---> in asking personal questions ("have you been poor? hungry?") or almost using her and Lea to aggrandize himself (intentionally or unintentionally)....
TANONG LANG, NAPANOOD BA TLAGA NI RICKY LO ANG LES MISERABLES? WALA KASI SIYANG INPUT ABOUT SA MOVIE. PARANG UMIKOT LANG SA MGA TANONG NA WALA NMANG KAUGNAYAN SA LES MIS. MALI DIN NA IPINASOK NIA PA SI LEA SALONGA, TAS HININGAN PA NIA SI ANNE NG MESSAGE FOR LEA SALONGA, ANUBAYON?! LUMAYO NA SA TOPIC. SA DAMI BA NMAN NG ININTERVIEW NI RICKY LO, HINDI PA DIN BA NIYA GAMAY YON?
This one proved that Anne is nor racist, picky or rude...Palpak lang talaga si Ricki Lo...Veteran, respected at prestigious pa naman siya sa pinas eh kay Manny lang pala siya wala ng ibubuga...
Prestigious????? E puro ka cheapan nga tinatanung nya sa articles nya, sexiest food sexiest book sexiest part of ur body, brief o boxers? Veteran?? Ngek
Anne is not being rude. Talaga naman kseng too personal questions ni Ricky Lo, ang boring pa nya kausap, its so hard to understand his words. Chaka it's about Les Miserables not about Lea Salonga, duh! Hirap kse sating mga pinoy pag nabara, bitchesa na agad si Anne... eh normal lang ng straightforward sumagot ang mga Americans.
No, the secret to a good interview is to stay on topic. Lea Salonga is not part of the movie so why should he ask Anne about her? Plus, give a message? bakit? Mag kaaway ba sila ni lea na dapat siya mag message na good luck or something? to be a good interviewer, you need to talk about the issues, and this means talking about the movie and not stupid questions. From the very start, Ricky Lo never had anything good to say about the movie. Plus, check him out, he has a set of questions on his hand. This means that he is not candid enough about the interview. He merely wants to show that he has interviewed another big star rather than proving that he has the capacity to do good interviews.
I beg to differ! There is no secret, really. If you come to the interview prepared, if you asked the right questions (meaning, well researched, relevant and intelligent questions), and you are not awkward in the way you speak or move, then a good rapport will follow.
neither gma or philippine star is sending ricky lo to interview in hollywood, it's the local distributors of the movies who are inviting or asking him to do the interviews( for your info only)
move na kayo guys, ok lang yan. anne hathaway lang naman yan. artista lang naman yan kahit a-lister pa kuno siya. hindi rin naman sila tinitake seriously sa bansa nila.
it would be a different situation kung ang ininterview ni ricky lo ay presidente. dun dapat talagang matinding research ang kailangan. or scientist na masyadong mahalaga ang contribution sa humanity.
anne is trying to sound smart kaya lang hindi nya inakala na mabababaw pala ang mga tanong sa kanya. dun siya naging bitchy. she probably wants to be taken seriously. hihi.
Susme, di pa ba tapos ito? Baka naman hukayin pa yung past interview ni Ricky kay Anne. Para namang si Anne Hathaway ang bida ng Les Mis. Wala pa atang 10 minutes ang screen time nya eh. It's a press junket interview, walang kwenta yan dahil bayad si Ricky, et al ng Les Miserables team para i-promote ang pelikula. O ayan, na-promote na nga ng todo-todo kaya dapat may bonus si Ricky Lo.
Dapat si Ricky Lo mag seminar muna kasi he yun mga alam niya matagal na panahon. Please GMA padala ninyo RL sa AIM. Hindi naman siya magalin. You cannot even understand what he saying.
well kung napanuod nyo yun interview ni mannythemovieguy namention nya din yun tungkol a diet issue and parang nag warning din si anne sa knya tungkol dun.. mabilis lang makabawi si manny.. unlike ricky lo na about les mis ang movie pero kung anu ano ang tanung at hellloo hingan ba ng message si anne for lea? hahaha pasabog yan matandang journalist na yan.. walang enta mag interview
RL should have been more prepared..period. Hathaway is an international star and more famous than Lea Salonga so please lang, stop comparing her to Lea
Manny also asked personal questions, pero it was after they discussed about the movie. plus, yes, he really made Anne feel comfortable by acknowledging her answers and basing his next questions on the answers. he came prepared, but he still made the interview very conversational. i guess that made Anne feel that she can share some personal things with Manny (imagine, pati yung marriage, nireveal nya, eh hindi naman related sa movie!).
nakita ko palang na may video na iniinterview ni Ricky Lo si Anne Hathaway (or ANY actor/actress for that matter) eh wala akong interes iclick ang play button dahil alam kong AWKWARD sya mag interview!
nakita ko palang na may video na iniinterview ni Ricky Lo si Anne Hathaway (or ANY actor/actress for that matter) eh wala akong interes iclick ang play button dahil alam kong AWKWARD sya mag interview!
Si Lea Salonga lang ba talaga ang pinakamagaling sa Les Miserables sa inyo?Manood kayo sa Youtube ng iba't-ibang Fantine at Eponym o maging mga mang-aawit na kumanta ng mga pamosong awitin mula sa pagtatanghal na yan,at magugulat kayo na marami ang magaling.
manny had better questions, more personality and better diction, PERIOD. sana, wag na si mr. lo ang ipadala. there more articulate a nd gracefulinterviewers who can do a much,much better job. this is not anne being a snub but the contrast of a good and a lousy interviewer.
mr ricky lo, with all due respect, and i presume you know this already because you're in the business for so long, an interview should always be about the subject, not about the interviewer or some other person. why do you keep on dragging lea salonga's name when she's not even part of the movie. if this interview was embarassing for us, i think it's more embarassing for lea. he got what he deserved. if you think anne was rude in the last part, i think mr lo was more rude when he kept looking on his cell phone (to open lea's message), butting in even when anne wasnt done talking yet, talking about lea salonga for several times, asking anne questions about being poor and hungry. duh! stupid is what stupid gets.
as for manny, i love the way he did the interview. saw his interview with the other cast members, and they all looked they had fun talking to him, making jokes and sharing personal experiences, because he made them feel that the interview was about THEM.
I think that Manny the Movie Guy is more lively than Ricky Lo. However, Anne has NO right to be too picky to an interviewer.
ReplyDeleteKasi it's like talking to someone na bobo kasi eh. Kaw? Di ka din ba maiirita? plus, ricky lo could have said sorry or kahit man lang an apology right? Eh hindi eh, parang "ok, moving on" lang. :D

lambastment. by golly, this is yet another classic case of someone trying to pass himself/herself as someone with a gift for words and ends up as a lost (neither here nor there) wordsmith. comments posted in this site have been very entertaining for the most part and they are amusing and instructive in a lot of ways too. however, there are a lot of crimes committed here vis-a-vis grammar, language, and the written word. I've read it all too often said here in the articles' comments section that we should not be snarky, naysay, or nitpick our fellow posters but admittedly, there is no excuse to these barbarisms they chronically commit. Regardless of the language used, one must always try and labor to appropriate it well. Worth mentioning in this regard then are the legions of witty bekis who have had such deft mastery of the dynamics of the language they chose to use as to bend it to their will while at the same time engaging in artful wordplay and puns in their posts.
DeleteThe claim that Anne felt insecure because of Lea is absurd. For starters, Anne might not even know her and even if she does, why should she be "insecure" of her?
The problem with many Filipinos, Ricky Lo being not the least of which, is that we tend to be presumptuous. We presume that the celebrated of us (e.g. "Lea Salonga", "Imelda Marcos") is acclaimed all over the world. We stubbornly insist on "connecting" ourselves and creating a link, no matter how remote, with famous people. How many times have we seen and heard it reported on our local news channels that someone who is 1/16th or 1/20th Filipino has won this or that award in this or that country? How many times have we been asked by a fellow Filipino we casually met here or abroad if we know this or that person just because he/she found out that the person he/she knows and you his/her new acquaintance came from the same city or province?
Think before you react.
Saying that Anne's conduct to Ricky was outright discrimination and that her response upon being asked about Lea was a sign of her insecurity is not only premature but a product of a myopic, judgmental mind.
A good reference to Anne's attitude would be her past interviews, including those she gave to US-based Filipino journalists like Ruben Nepales.
As a gauge/measure upon which claims of her being discriminatory would be set against, methinks that there is no better method of comparison than this. Anne with Ricky Lo the Filipino and Anne with Ruben Nepales the Filipino.
Before saying anything, know the facts first.
Kala ko naman in solid agreement ka Kay 8:12.
Delete^^@molybdenum yes she should be more considerate to stupidity
Deletebut Anne Hathaway IS Anne Hathaway. Ricky Lo should have come prepared with intelligent questions. He even handed his phone to Anne w/c I think is unethical. Ricky should have read it for her instead. AND to ask if she was ever been poor and hungry? WTF right? :))
DeleteThe way Ricky asked questions is different than what Manny does. Sabi nga it is not about the question but how you asked it. Ricky's tone in questioning is different thanthe other one. And I noticed that Ricky kept on interrupting Anne, she sometimes was not able to finish her sentence. Anyway, by watching this two videos, I never finished Ricky's interview but bitin ako sa interview ni Manny. :-p
DeleteI agree that ricky lo was really bobo in this interview. BUT Anne's response at the end of the interview was a major turn off. Gawd, will it cost her a million bucks to invite fans to see her movie. She was so rude.
DeleteThere is nothing wrong with Anne Hathaway or her response in the Ricky Lo interview. It is RL who botched the interview.
DeleteManny's is relaxed and conversational. Mas interesting panoorin, pareho sila ni Anne na light ang mood and may flow ang usap. Si Ricky Lo eh parang mema lang at pilit pinapasok si Lea Salonga sa usapan! Yan tuloy, nabastos ng di oras! Umpisa pa lang, mali na sya. Tsk tsk.
DeleteDefensive si Anne H kasi alam nya pinoy si Ricky Lo, so from the start alam na nya na ikokonek si lea sa mga questions. Pero over sya sa pagka defensive, lumalabas na insecure sya. Ask all those who watched her movie and ung play ni lea, they are the ones who know how good lea was... Insecure si Anne H.
DeleteInsecure Anne Hathaway!
DeleteAng labo ng comment mo pre, malayo pa sa Pinas at Amerika.
Deletenakow naman molybdenum, kung talagang me descrimination n naganap eh di sana inokray okray din ni anne si manny kasi its obvious na pinoy si manny.ang sabihn mo hindi talaga maayos nag interview yang ricky lo mo.
DeleteThe title of the interview should have been --- "The Insecure Anne Hathaway!" Korek to those who commented na insecure nga si Anne Hathaway kay Lea. She's very sarcastic. Wala sya sa kalingkingan ni Lea.
Deleteat wala din sya sa kalingkingan ni anne hathaway hahahha..
DeleteIm sorry, Ricky has been a "journalist" far too long than I could remember. But I never once liked him. I find him so boring and trying hard. I never understood also why they even allow him to face big stars. Seriously, he doesn't sound and look credible.
ReplyDeleteTamuh.
DeleteVery well said!
DeleteYes ricky can write but he cant talk well
Deletekaya nga tinanggal sa The Buzz yan si Ricky Lo kasi walang kwenta mag interview!!!!!
DeleteButi na lang wala na sya sa dos.
Deletesuper boring nya.. wlang enta yun mga questions palagi hahah
Deletekorek!! everytime cia me ganyan, lagi ko na lang naiisip na sana iba na lang ang nag interview lol
DeleteI read Ricky Lo's article on wikipedia and it was mentioned there that he is best remembered for articles like the break-up of Martin & Pops, the break-up of Dingdong & Karylle. Ano ba yan! BTW, mentioned na dun about this Anne Hathaway brouhaha... LOL.
DeleteHay naku. Feeling ko nga, may ghost writer sya! O talagang magaling lang iyung proofreader/editor ng newspapers kung saan sya may column! Hehe
DeletePrepared siya for the interview yet spontaneous pa rin ang dating ni Manny the movie guy! Love ittttt! :-)
ReplyDeleteManny the Movie Guy nailed it!!! *enough said*
ReplyDeleteway much better.. keber na sa oily fez!
ReplyDeleteTamuuuh! Hahaha! Kahit SOOOOBRANG OILY FEZZ siya bumongga nman sa pag talak! Dba?!
DeleteI keep wondering why GMA always send Ricky Lo for international interviews the guy can't even enunciate proper english. Brought shame to our country.
ReplyDeleteDitto!
DeleteSooo embarassing na si Ricky Lo parati representative ng Pinas I remember his other interviews so painful to watch Gush
DeleteAnon 5:56, no he's not. Ito nga si Manny the Movie Guy nainterview si Anne representing ABS-CBN. Pati si Ruben Napales represented Inquirer. Ricky was the one representing PhilStar.
Deletego manny! :)
ReplyDeletehe asked PROPER questions, therefore getting proper answers. winnerrr! plus he made anne laugh with the iron on design on his shirt :D
Machika si bakla. Siguro plus factor pa na movie critic talaga sya kaya nagfocus sya sa movie. Unlike si ricky lo na showbiz writer.
ReplyDeleteanon 4:56, you nailed it! movie reviewer vs. showbiz writer, two different worlds.
DeleteKorak! May substance na, at saka nakikinig talaga siya sa sinasabi ni Anne.
DeleteKaya ang Ricardo Lo, supalpal. He should've done his homework first, lalo na't hindi naman siya true cineaste.
Truelagen!!! Saka interested sya kay anne na mismong subject ng interview while ricky lo is interested kay lea. Eto n nman tong maisingit lang na pinoy pride chuchu. Haaaayyyyy. Hndi alam ni rcky lo ang concept ng yolo. Minsan k lng magkkaroon ng opportunity na mainterview ang gaya ni anne di mo pa tinodo. At for sure last nya na rin ito!!! Hahaha
DeleteI don't know Manny the Movie Guy, but yes, he made Anne feel so comfortable in the interview, so it looked like she was enjoying talking to him! Great job, Manny!
ReplyDeleteManny, the Movie Guy is with Balitang America of TFC. I think it's only shown in the US (although he could be considered from ABS-CBN)
Deletei don't picky c Anne kasi kung picky xa eh di sana walang interview na nangyari.. sablay lng tlaga ang approach ni ricky lo.. tama ba nman paulit2 banggit c lea salongga eh show ni anne ang topic..
ReplyDeleteagree!
DeleteManny the Movie Guy asked the right questions.
ReplyDeleteIs he pinoy??? I thought parody interview to, btw anne seems very happy and comfortable in this interview
ReplyDeleteYes he is pinoy:)
DeletePinoy si Manny the Movie Guy. Nasa TFC news na Balitang America siya pag may movie review siya or may interviews with Hollywood people.
DeleteYes, he can be considered an ABS-CBN staff since her works for TFC. He has a regular segment at Balitang America which I regularly watch.
DeleteAyoko na si Anne, bitchesa pala itech!
ReplyDeletesame here! DOuble standard lang tayo eh porke hollywood. What if local celebrity gumawa nyan? Hindi talaga maganda mag-interview si ricky lo dinaig pa ang first timer, may idiot cards pa at habang nagsasalita si anne, nagbabasa we can here it in the audio, ano ba yan ricky lo?! pero Anne should've been nicer lalo na nung sinabi na mag-invite sya, tama ba namang ipasa nya kay ricky lo dahil imbyerna sya eh movie nya yun. Next time sana kay Boy abunda and the likes na lang ibigay para hindi nakakahiya sya pa naman nagrepresent sa Philippines.
DeleteI like manny the movie guy and obviously, anne likes him too. Sana lang wag oily face next time,ang dugyot tignan...
Hollywood stars, when promoting their movies, dont talk about their personal lives, but they focus on the movie itself... talk show hosts Jimmy Kimmel or Jay Leno knows best how to make their interviewees comfortable and they keep it light. We have to keep in mind that these are Hollywood stars and notpinoy artista na puro iyak and drama during interviews.
DeleteWinnur ang oily dugyot face :))
DeleteHahahaa yes dugyot nga ang oily ng fez ni manny.... True, very rude si Anne, wala Cyang Pake sa mga Filipino fans Nya! Ang bastos, iboycott yan!
Deletelol lahat na lang ng bumabastos sa pinoy i boycott!! puro boycott!! pag bastos i boycott kaagad di ba pwedeng wag mo na lang silang tangkilikin total personal choice naman? marami namang bitches dito ha? yung ngang iba walang k maging bitch.. social climber pa.. pero bumibitch pa rin? hahahaha
DeleteEngot etong mga nagsasabing iboycott si Anne. Magkasing-utak kayo ni Ricky Lo.
DeleteWalang pake sa mga Pinoy fans? Hala, nakalimutan yata ng iba na Pinoy din si MannyTheMovieGuy.
DeleteNagkaiba kasi ng approach. Yung isa, gustong MANGILALA ng tao ung isa gustong MANG-INTRIGA.
Kanino ka?
HELLO HINDI KA BA MAGIGING BITCHESSA KUNG TANUNGIN KA NG PAULIT-ULIT AT NAPAKA-AWKWARD NA MGA QUESTIONS JUSKO
Deleteboycott agad? hahahah kakaloka! boycott mo fez mo! lol
Deletei think manny's interview is way better because he was able to put anne at ease and kept her engaged and open during the interview. she was very pleasant and even shared personal info (about her getting married), which showed that she was comfortable.
ReplyDeleteunlike in ricky's interview, she gave one word answers and was standoffish probably because the rapport was not there. he also kept cutting her off and his questions were very shallow.
Who is that guy? He is good. He listens and based his questions based on Anne's answers. I guess that makes for a good interviewer. Listen and formulate your questions based on the answer then you can squeeze in your listed questions without being irrelevant.
ReplyDeleteManny is pinoy I see him in TFC-Balitang America he critiques and rates movie in his segment. He is fluent in both Filipino and English.
DeleteI think the problem with the Ricky Lo interview was that he went there unprepared AND wanting to impress Anne Hathaway with the fact that he knows Lea Salonga and Lea knows her. That's why he was so distracted (unless he was just stoned). Ricky Lo should have focused on Anne and the interview. I didn't find Anne bitchy. She was uncomfortable because of Ricky Lo's demeanor.
ReplyDeleteI agree! Also guess he is not aware of the difference between Philippine showbiz and Hollywood not to mention Anne Hathaway's caliber and status as an actress. As an interviewer, and as a journalist (as PhilStar claim he is) Ricky Lo should be aware and sensitive about being "politically correct" and what is acceptable/unacceptable in a conversation.
DeleteI was watching his Saturday Show on GMA. They were interviewing Gloria Romero. Ganung-ganun ang pag interview ni Ricky Lo kay Anne. Hindi na naisip iba ang culture sa Holloywood.
DeleteManny the Movie Guy isn't that articulate like Ricky Lo but his energy level was a winner. I think that made Anne really comfortable. Ricky Lo was kinda mumbling, and his diction sucked (I honestly couldn't understand half of what he was saying). Lessons learned: You don't have to be perfect in grammar or American accent, as long as you establish rapport with the interviewee, you are energetic, you stick with your point of discussion, and you speak clearly, then you wouldn't be receiving sarcastic and cringe-worthy answers from them.
ReplyDeleteI guess it's time they let Ricky Lo rest from interviewing international stars. Manny the Movie Guy, Boy Abunda, or Kris Aquino should be sent instead to avoid another embarrassment.
Yes send Boy and his magic mirror! Baka mas Maloka ka!
DeleteI agree Boy Abunda is better interviewer than Ricky Lo. Boy looks energetic while RL is so boring.
DeleteHahaha AnonymousJanuary 19, 2013 at 5:47 PM, I've seen quite a few interviews of Boy Abunda with famous international stars, so far, the magic mirror hasn't been "put up". I don't know, but have you ever seen Boy Abunda ask his international interviewees questions involving the magic mirror? I think he does that for showbiz oriented scoops/local celebrities with issues. Hehe! ;)
DeleteRicky Lo is articulate? Do you even read his columns? Gawd!
DeleteRicky Lo, articulate - sarcasm din ba ito? Hahaha
DeleteRicky Lo and articulate in one sentence? Nah!
DeletePlease read, Manny the Movie Guy isn't that articulate like Ricky Lo. It DID NOT say that Manny the Movie Guy isn't that articulate UNLIKE Ricky Lo. It is said there that they are both not articulate, but Manny was a winner.
Deletekailan ba naging articulate si Ricky Lo? Diba inalis ito sa ABS-CBN kaya dinampot ng GMA?
DeleteIt is really about making your interviewee feel comfortable from the start, asking the right questions to get sincere answers, listening to your interviewee and throw good follow-up questions, not strictly following the guide questions on your cue card, researching beforehand for fresh/unasked questions, and just being sensitive overall.
ReplyDeleteMannytheMovieGuy made me feel interested as to what he's going to ask Anne next, and what Anne's answer's going to be. It was not his bubbly persona that stood out (heck, it might also dangerously come off as OA to some). He listened well and made Anne feel important through his witty comments. He was funny, yes, but still stuck to the topic (Anne as Fantine, and Les Mis.
Ricky Lo asked similar questions, but he set the mood wrong right from the start, and got worse as the interview progressed.
thanks for uploading his video... nung nakita ko ung kay ricky, nacompare ko agad ung interview nila ni manny.
ReplyDeleteSame here. Buti nilagay rin ni FP dito yung kay Manny.
Deleteawkward conversation exists !
ReplyDelete-#CharoterangFrog
Did Anne actually say "You already" (as in 'Ikaw na') at 00:12 ? =)
ReplyDeleteWow , Thanks Ricky Lo, your interview is like watching a paint dry!! We got nothing out of it!! It's time for retirement, don't you think?
ReplyDelete-IamRP
Remember John Arcilla being interviewed by Boy Abunda on Ikaw Na (Bandila)? Really awkward. As if a fight's going to start anytime. It was so painful to watch that it made me feel like switching the channel.
ReplyDeleteSa Hollywood kasi nagpapainterview sila to talk about tr movie not their personal life! Kasi sa pinas nagprpromote ng movie personal na tanong at hindi about sa movie! Tapos si Ricky lo tinanong pa kung naranasan chuchu magutom hahaha
ReplyDeleteAliw yung interview ni manny! Si Ricky lo kabang kaba tas ang daming hawak and while sumasagot si Anne eh may nahulog pa sa kanya! Hahahahahaha dapat kasi pinaghandaan lol
ReplyDeleteRicky Lo--- epic fail! I don't understand why they keep on sending him to cover Hollywood stars! If I were Anne, I would have been so pissed too. I have nothing against Lea Salonga (She's the epitome of perfection for me) but this interview has nothing to do with Lea and questions should have been about this film. Anne even tried to be nice the first time he mentioned Lea and she even looked happy reading the text but it was just too much when Ricky Lo did it again.
ReplyDeleteManny on the other hand was so alive and you can sense that he really knew what he was talking about.
I agree. Why insert Lea Salonga in the interview? And to actually show the text from his phone? It's unprofessional. Mention Lea once is fine. But don't keep talking about her. This interview is about Anne and Les Miserables. There is a difference in interviewing a local Filipino artist and a foreign artist. The interviewer would have to consider the cultural differences. Ricky Lo was also unprepared in the interview. It seems like he didn't even watch the movie.
DeleteManny The Movie Guy, obviously did his homework. He came prepared and was knowledgeable about the subject. He formed his questions around Anne's answers., not just reading a list of questions he prepared like Ricky Lo. He made Anne at ease which Anne positively responded to. She gave witty answers, joked with him and even talked about her age and wedding. This is how you do an interview. Ricky Lo should take notes.
Ricky Lo : Why don't you invite your fans in the Philippines?
ReplyDeleteAnne : Why don't you do it?
Grabe! Awkward!
BASTOS si Anne.
Deletenaprovoke lang si ate, hahahah for sure.. base sa nababasa ko dito...tayo ang sira..amerikana siya, iba ang culture nila sa atin.. wag natin expect na kagaya natin sila at aayun sila ayun sa kultura natin...baka nga talagang nakakapikon lang si RL. dapat nanunuod siya ng mga foreign interviews baka mag ka Idea siya kung paano niya ba dapat sinundot yung mga tanong niya.
DeleteAnon 10:12, here in the US it is the hosts' job ro invite the viewers, not the guest's. Iba sa Pinas. How dare you say Anne is bastos. Baka ikaw!
DeleteI don't think Anne was bastos. She tried promoting the movie, the very reason why the interview was done. But sadly, Ricky didn't seem to be interested in her movie.
DeleteI don't think Anne was bastos. I think Anne was actually very gracious given how annoying Ricky Lo was.
DeleteHindi BASTOS si Anne. Hindi lang talaga magaling si Ricky Lo.
DeleteGo with the flow si Manny kaya comfortable si anne si Ricky lo ilan beses siningit si lea salonga sa interview eh about the movie naman! I don't think picky si Anne kasi if picky siya bakit pa nagpainterview sobrang "stupid" lang ni Ricky magtanong
ReplyDeleteRicky lo is old na. Makakalimutin na sya haha. Hes boring!
ReplyDeletepero sana nag oil control film muna si Manny the Movie Guy..dugyot ksing tingnan, as in eeewwww...
ReplyDeleteLagi naman matamlay maginterview yan si ricky lo.super boring magtanong at alang rapport sa iniinterview.pls lng let the younger 1s do it wag lang yung baklang may kakambal at yung social climber.....
ReplyDeletemanny's laugh is irritating though
ReplyDeleteI give Ricky Lo's interview a grade of 4.11 !
ReplyDeleteDiba c Manny ay sa Balitang amerika ng TFC??
ReplyDeleteYes, he has a segment there. He is a movie critic.
DeleteThe comments here are more interesting than Ricky Lo's interview.
ReplyDeleteAkala kasi ni Ricky Lo he can always fool people on his level of "competence" kung meron may. His interview with Anne proves that sooner or later, your true worth and competence (again kung meron man) will show. At nag tweet pa siya ng: Anne Hathaway, I will always remember you in 'Princess Diaries.' Hehehe!" Lalo mo lang pinababa ang sarili mo, Ricky.
ReplyDeleteAnne even referred to her start in Princess Diaries a bit self-deprecatingly nung Golden Globes so maling hirit na naman itong si Ricky Lo... :(
DeleteRicky Lo can good a good writer but definitely not an interviewer. I've watched about 3 of his interviews with international stars. All I can say is that he is so BORINNNNNGGGG.
ReplyDeleteobviously, Manny is more confident than Ricky Lo
ReplyDeleteGMA 7, pls naman stop sending Ricky Lo to do interviews with international stars na, he could write but he's not competent and doesn't have the skills to do an interview, even with our local stars, napakaboring nya, kahit as host, he bores me to hell. Magsulat na lang sya, dun ok pa sya,But Anne Hathaway went way too low, when she said "Why don't u invite them?" She was pissed off, ok, but she could have ended the conversation with tact since tactless na rin lang naman yung nag-interview sa kanya.napasama din tuloy tingin ko sa kanya, imbes na si Ricky LOW lang ang nakakahiya,.
ReplyDeleteGRABE. Kitang kita yung difference! Anne is so comfortable and at ease with Manny. While with Ricky, she looks like she wants to be rescued.
ReplyDeleteIf you google Anne Hathaway makikita mo na rude talaga sya que sa interviews o co-star like what Joseph Gordon-Levitt said. Yung mga tanong kasi ni Ricky Lo ay pangshowbiz dito sa Pinas at nakikisakay na nga lang c Anne tungkol kay Lea Salonga, para pa syang fan na message-message kuno. Isa pa naging defensive si Anne dahil baka itong mapersonal na interviewer na ito ay matanong sya sa picture nyang walang panty lately na nakita na lahat. Maski nga kay Matt Lauer sa TV interview, rude si Anne.
ReplyDeleteshe has a right to be rude. she is an artist, not a celebrity, and she values her craft. the biggest difference between pinoy actors and those in Hollywood is these artists try to maintain the strongest presence of craftsmanship to their work. Here in the Philippines, our actors are hungry for attention and not for the work they are able to produce. the Filipinos value more the intrigues and kilig-kilig in their roles rather than focusing on what difference did their roles make in the lives of the people who watch them. Did you ever wonder why there has been no Filipino movie ever nominated in the Oscars? The reason is that our artists try to focus more on overacting in their movies rather than honing their crafts and create this simple emotion that touches the moviegoers lives. that is the major difference, all the other countries nominated in the film focuses more on the influence their film makes to society rather than how their fans would love it. That is why I believe that the Indie film industry of the Philippines has more class than those of the other major film outfits. the movies they produce have depth, have stories, and have the basics of good storytelling instead of just focusing on selling the movie to make a profit.
DeleteYou're misinterpreting rude for confident, my dear!
DeleteKung rude si Anne, bat super nice sya kay Manny? Depende yan sa interviewer!
DeleteNow the interview by this Mannymovieguy would have been perfect if only his face wasn't all oiled up.
ReplyDeleteahahaha! may tama ka!
DeleteBastos si Anne Hathaway. Whatever way you look at it. Ricky was polite the whole way through. Umpisa pa lang, ayaw na sagutin ni Anne yung question about weight loss. What's up with that? She must have been having a baaaad day.
ReplyDeleteShe hasn't wanted to talk about it coz she's had too much flak from it
DeleteJust so you know, weight issue is very sensitive in America. Ricky Lo should have made his research and come well prepared for the interview.
Deleteduh, marami nang tinanong nyan. siya lang ang maarte. actually bitch talaga siya. buti na lang dahil dito sa interview na ito, nalaman ng mga tao na she is in fact a bitch. sana inisip nya rin na hindi taga america ang mag-iinterview sa kanya. so most probably iba yung style ng mga tanong natin. sa sunod kung ayaw nilang tinatanong ng mga ganyang bagay, i-screen muna nila yung mga questions ng mga interviewer.
DeleteWaaay before pinalabas yung les mis, sinabi na ni anne na ayaw niyang pag-usapan yung tungkol sa paglose niya ng weight. Ricky lo should have done research first ng hindi nasosopla.
DeleteBastos? She was smiling and keeping her poise kahit asar na asar na siya. She wasn't rude at all! Sensitive ka lang masyado.
DeleteAnon 10:18, you don't talk about weight in America. It's considered rude!
DeleteLest we forget, Manny the Movie Guy asked tge same question but was not given a "rude" answer. It was a matter of timing and the right rapport.
DeletePlus, di din sinagot ni anne, she just said dont do the fantine diet, whatever it is, ayaw nya talagang pag usapan, its just that marunong lang talaga magdala si manny
Deleteteh sa US sensitive na issue lalo na sa mga "HOLLYWOOD CELEBRITIES" ang tungkol sa weight loss dahil konti issue lang akusahan na sila na anorexic or bulimic kaya ayaw nya pag usapan yun tungkol dun!
DeleteThe problem with Ricky Lo is: 1) He had to say I have this important friend over and over again as if to bloat his importance as a journalist, 2) He only asked Anne once about how she prepared for the role. Other than that everything was trying to get a sob story about the life of Anne Hathaway. Akala niya yata interview dapat yun for "Wish ko lang!" program. In fairness to him, he was only catering to what some people want to hear na gumapang siya sa lusak and finally nagtagumpay. Trite! 3) Finally, he tried to get a 5 second clip asking Anne to say something to Lea. I love Lea but we have to understand who is the bigger star. I guess to Mr. Ricky Lo it would have been a good sound bite sa primetime news. Sa pilipinas kasi pagkatapos ng bawat interview panghuli parati na sasabihin ng interviewer, Oh sige! Invite mo na sila sa movie mo or gig mo.
ReplyDeletekung si matt lauer nga tinatarayan ni anne, si ricky lo pa kaya. Feelingera siya hindi naman ako nagalingan sa kanya as fantine. Mas ok pa din si uma thurman.
ReplyDeleteAnyway mas ok itong interview na ito he came prepared at smart ang mga tanong.
Weh! Jowa mo si RL no?
DeleteThe reason why she doesn't want to talk about the weight loss is because she doesn't want other kids to follow what she did to achieve that weight. It wasn't being bastos. She did try to get into the spirit of the interview when Ricky Lo mentioned Leah. In fairness to Mr. Ricky Lo ginagawa lang niya yung tingin niya gustong marinig ng mga viewers na kesyo bilib si Anne sa mga Filipino. He should have talked more about the movie and less about her as a showbiz personality.
ReplyDeleteAgree! Malamang dangerous nga talaga iyung weight loss regimen na ginawa nya.
DeleteWALA BANG "LIKE" BUTTON DITO. ANG DAMI KO KASING GUSTONG iLIKE NA MGA COMMENTS EH. :)
ReplyDeletericky lo. lagi nyang isinisingit yun mga sikat na pinoy sa mga interviews nya. buti nga nasupalpal
ReplyDeletehe deserved it! nabasa niyo ba yung tweet ng jowa ni anne curtis? nanliliit daw siya sa interview. LOL.
Deletei agree. buti nga nasupalpal! paminsan minsan talaga you have to give it to people, something like "in your face!"
Delete@10;08- you ask about the movie, the movie , di yung weight, poverty or lea, ricky lo deserves it, akala nya matatakot si anne sa kanya, ayan ang difference ng interviewer from 1st and developing country, buti di tinanong ni ricky what is your feet size, fav underwear, first thing you do and last thing you do ekekek,
ReplyDeleteI agree that Ricky Lo's interview lacked substance and depth plus the thing with fishing anything Filipino out of Anne was plain stupid. However, Anne's "why don't you invite them" comment was out of the line too. It's her movie after all and no matter how famous she is, she could have at least acknowledged her fans. A simple message would have sufficed.
ReplyDeletemy dear, if you watch US shows like Ellen and Oprah you will see her that it's the host who do the inviting.
Deletetamah! hahaha
Deletenakaka-hiya ito para sa Pilipinas, ewan kung bakit sya lagi pinapadala sa mga interview na ganyan,
ReplyDeleteAnonymousJanuary 19, 2013 at 10:08 PM
sabi ng mga babae, ok lang daw na tanungin kung pano nag lose ng weight but NOT kung pano naibalik, at napaka-personal na question the interview is about the MOVIE not her, sanay kasi tayo na kadramahan ang interview....
RICKY LO MAG RESIGN KA NA!
Agree anon9:23pm ...naimbey baka matanong pa ng much personal question.. Si ate anne nmn kasi bakit nga naman hindi nagpanty.. E fantine p nman ang role niya.. divah!!... Hahaha!!!
ReplyDeleteha? i didn't get it.
DeleteI think the interview would have to improve tremendously to even qualify as "painful to watch". Aside from the inapprorpiate and very personal questions, i think what irritated and annoyed Anne Hathaway was Ricky Lo's "nervous laugh"... it seemed as if he was not sensing Anne's annoyance by him.
ReplyDelete-jh
Great Interview!
ReplyDeleteRight questions: check!
Rapport: check!
Engaging: check!
Focus: check!
Ricky ikaw talaga, you make most of us LAUGH... nag assume ka na naman na magaling ka... buwahahahahaha!
DeleteHaha, yan yung comment ko kagabi! di napublish! now I know why!
ReplyDeleteThe miserable interview dapat title nung kay ricky lo. Kalowka!
ReplyDeleteLO's Miseables
Deletein ferness mas matagal yung usapan nina manay ricky kympara kay ateng manny. sa haba ng usapan ii-lang beses lang ngumit si anne...bakit? walang ramport si manay ricky.
ReplyDeleteLet's set aside the pronunciation and diction issues of Ricky Lo, his worst sin was he seemed unprepared, awkward, distracted, and, worst of all for an interviewer, had no awareness of what's happening and how the interviewee is feeling/acting. As an interviewer, it's your job to make the subject comfortable, engaged, and continue to communicate. Kahit ma-annoy ang subject basta engaged at communicative, it would still have been a good interview. Ang nangyari with Anne e she shut down... the worst thing that could happen in an interview. And, I agree, I think he focused too much on the fact na kilala niya si Lea Salonga and was trying to make a connection between Anne and Lea. I think Anne truly admires Lea pero I think because of Ricky's badgering on the Lea subject, medyo na-put in a bad light si Lea with Anne (kahit na walang involvement si Lea)... Too bad.
ReplyDeleteI agree!! Ndi naman kse si Lea ang main topic! Duh!
Deleteand when he showed her his phone... nakakaloka!
DeleteHe is indeed Pinoy. Manny Dela Rosa in real life. Good Job Manny!
ReplyDeletei dont think anne has any right to treat ricky lo that way. regardless of whether the interviewer asked the most stupidest questions. Her being an international actress doesnt make her any better than other people.
ReplyDeleteWell, it should also apply to Ricky... him being the interviewer doesn't make him any better than her and giving him the right to put her in an awkward position---> in asking personal questions ("have you been poor? hungry?") or almost using her and Lea to aggrandize himself (intentionally or unintentionally)....
DeleteIt's Ok, kano si Anne so don't expect pinoy celeb style answer sa isang cheap na mayabang na ricki lo interviwer daw...
DeleteAnne was being straight forward and honest! Kung offensive ang tanong wag sagutin. Di naman sya nagalit.. Sana lang
DeleteNext time iba na Lang ipadala.
i don't think anne did anything wrong. she was polite all through out. iba ang culture ng americano. hindi sila plastic.
Deletesaw Manny's other interviews with the other cast members. Mukhang nag-enjoy lahat ng ininterview nya.walang awkward moments.
ReplyDeleteTANONG LANG, NAPANOOD BA TLAGA NI RICKY LO ANG LES MISERABLES? WALA KASI SIYANG INPUT ABOUT SA MOVIE. PARANG UMIKOT LANG SA MGA TANONG NA WALA NMANG KAUGNAYAN SA LES MIS. MALI DIN NA IPINASOK NIA PA SI LEA SALONGA, TAS HININGAN PA NIA SI ANNE NG MESSAGE FOR LEA SALONGA, ANUBAYON?! LUMAYO NA SA TOPIC. SA DAMI BA NMAN NG ININTERVIEW NI RICKY LO, HINDI PA DIN BA NIYA GAMAY YON?
ReplyDeletekawawa nmn si Ricky Lo.... :(
ReplyDeletebakit? he deserved it!
DeleteThis one proved that Anne is nor racist, picky or rude...Palpak lang talaga si Ricki Lo...Veteran, respected at prestigious pa naman siya sa pinas eh kay Manny lang pala siya wala ng ibubuga...
ReplyDeletePrestigious????? E puro ka cheapan nga tinatanung nya sa articles nya, sexiest food sexiest book sexiest part of ur body, brief o boxers? Veteran?? Ngek
DeleteAMEN!!!
Deleteveteran pwede.. pero prestigious??? i dont think so! hhaa
DeleteAnne is not being rude. Talaga naman kseng too personal questions ni Ricky Lo, ang boring pa nya kausap, its so hard to understand his words. Chaka it's about Les Miserables not about Lea Salonga, duh! Hirap kse sating mga pinoy pag nabara, bitchesa na agad si Anne... eh normal lang ng straightforward sumagot ang mga Americans.
ReplyDeleteNo, it's make the interviewee comfortable first!
Deletei think the secret is to feed the interviewee's ego first...
ReplyDeleteYou got it right. The second "interview" was all about fawning and idol worship.LOL!!!!
DeleteNo, the secret to a good interview is to stay on topic. Lea Salonga is not part of the movie so why should he ask Anne about her? Plus, give a message? bakit? Mag kaaway ba sila ni lea na dapat siya mag message na good luck or something? to be a good interviewer, you need to talk about the issues, and this means talking about the movie and not stupid questions. From the very start, Ricky Lo never had anything good to say about the movie. Plus, check him out, he has a set of questions on his hand. This means that he is not candid enough about the interview. He merely wants to show that he has interviewed another big star rather than proving that he has the capacity to do good interviews.
DeleteI beg to differ! There is no secret, really. If you come to the interview prepared, if you asked the right questions (meaning, well researched, relevant and intelligent questions), and you are not awkward in the way you speak or move, then a good rapport will follow.
DeleteRicky Lo as always is boring and not witty enough....and always "scripted."
ReplyDeleteMuch ado about nothing. This is all showbiz fluff. I don't think this has any importance whatsoever.
ReplyDeletethen why bother to comment at all.
Deleteneither gma or philippine star is sending ricky lo to interview in hollywood, it's the local distributors of the movies who are inviting or asking him to do the interviews( for your info only)
ReplyDeletemove na kayo guys, ok lang yan. anne hathaway lang naman yan. artista lang naman yan kahit a-lister pa kuno siya. hindi rin naman sila tinitake seriously sa bansa nila.
ReplyDeleteit would be a different situation kung ang ininterview ni ricky lo ay presidente. dun dapat talagang matinding research ang kailangan. or scientist na masyadong mahalaga ang contribution sa humanity.
anne is trying to sound smart kaya lang hindi nya inakala na mabababaw pala ang mga tanong sa kanya. dun siya naging bitchy. she probably wants to be taken seriously. hihi.
Susme, di pa ba tapos ito? Baka naman hukayin pa yung past interview ni Ricky kay Anne. Para namang si Anne Hathaway ang bida ng Les Mis. Wala pa atang 10 minutes ang screen time nya eh. It's a press junket interview, walang kwenta yan dahil bayad si Ricky, et al ng Les Miserables team para i-promote ang pelikula. O ayan, na-promote na nga ng todo-todo kaya dapat may bonus si Ricky Lo.
ReplyDeleteGood job Manny for not asking how did she gain 25lbs back.
ReplyDeleteDapat si Ricky Lo mag seminar muna kasi he yun mga alam niya matagal
ReplyDeletena panahon. Please GMA padala ninyo RL sa AIM. Hindi naman siya magalin. You cannot even understand what he saying.
Why ,why,why send Ricky Lo to interview big stars??? Wala na bang iba? Bad grammar,bad diction,unprepared,Nakakahiya!
ReplyDeletewell kung napanuod nyo yun interview ni mannythemovieguy namention nya din yun tungkol a diet issue and parang nag warning din si anne sa knya tungkol dun.. mabilis lang makabawi si manny.. unlike ricky lo na about les mis ang movie pero kung anu ano ang tanung at hellloo hingan ba ng message si anne for lea? hahaha pasabog yan matandang journalist na yan.. walang enta mag interview
ReplyDeleteRL should have been more prepared..period. Hathaway is an international star and more famous than Lea Salonga so please lang, stop comparing her to Lea
ReplyDeleteManny also asked personal questions, pero it was after they discussed about the movie. plus, yes, he really made Anne feel comfortable by acknowledging her answers and basing his next questions on the answers. he came prepared, but he still made the interview very conversational. i guess that made Anne feel that she can share some personal things with Manny (imagine, pati yung marriage, nireveal nya, eh hindi naman related sa movie!).
ReplyDeletenakita ko palang na may video na iniinterview ni Ricky Lo si Anne Hathaway (or ANY actor/actress for that matter) eh wala akong interes iclick ang play button dahil alam kong AWKWARD sya mag interview!

ReplyDeleteSi Lea Salonga lang ba talaga ang pinakamagaling sa Les Miserables sa inyo?Manood kayo sa Youtube ng iba't-ibang Fantine at Eponym o maging mga mang-aawit na kumanta ng mga pamosong awitin mula sa pagtatanghal na yan,at magugulat kayo na marami ang magaling.
ReplyDeleteEponine po
DeleteWho is Ricky Lo?... uh oh.. that is not a question.
ReplyDeletemanny had better questions, more personality and better diction, PERIOD. sana, wag na si mr. lo ang ipadala. there more articulate a nd gracefulinterviewers who can do a much,much better job. this is not anne being a snub but the contrast of a good and a lousy interviewer.
ReplyDeleteali
mr ricky lo, with all due respect, and i presume you know this already because you're in the business for so long, an interview should always be about the subject, not about the interviewer or some other person. why do you keep on dragging lea salonga's name when she's not even part of the movie. if this interview was embarassing for us, i think it's more embarassing for lea. he got what he deserved. if you think anne was rude in the last part, i think mr lo was more rude when he kept looking on his cell phone (to open lea's message), butting in even when anne wasnt done talking yet, talking about lea salonga for several times, asking anne questions about being poor and hungry. duh! stupid is what stupid gets.
ReplyDeleteas for manny, i love the way he did the interview. saw his interview with the other cast members, and they all looked they had fun talking to him, making jokes and sharing personal experiences, because he made them feel that the interview was about THEM.
Wow.. manny is so good!
ReplyDeleteNatawa ako ng bongga dito, anong konek? E si Ricky lang ang nagpupumilit ikonek, waahhahaha. You are an idiot!! hahahhaha
ReplyDelete"PANTIN" kasi ng "PANTIN" si ricky lo.. hahaha its FANTINE!
