A Scam Aborted?

Was it an honest mistake or an intentional deception? Thus, would be the questions of people who were at the backstage of a recent event. A tradition of the event is the awarding of the coveted recognition to the most beautiful and the most debonair attendees of the night. While the event was going on, the hosts announced that the coveted recognition goes with a cash prize.

Finally, the names of the winners of the coveted recognition were announced. The envelopes were awarded and the winners were happy that they were recognized. When the envelopes were opened at the backstage, they were allegedly empty. The cash prize was not in any of the envelopes. It was not like the winners needed the money; rather, it was the principle. The manager of one of the winners demanded what happened to the cash prize. The manager persisted until the organizers were able to trace what happened to the money. Well, allegedly, one of the committee members had kept the cash (for safekeeping, perhaps).

The frenzy at the backstage for the search for the missing cash was so tension-filled that it merited a tweet from a controversial personality (CP). Of course, the mysterious tweet made the followers wonder at the meaning, and CP will not spill the beans, anyway. As always, the event lives to its consistent reputation of always having a controversy, be it with the choice of winners or the voters, themselves.

Poll: Is this a butt-full of joke?

Don't Get on My Nerves!

Talented Performer TP is passionately hating Handsome Actor HA. All the while TP was thinking HA was serious in his intentions, until some months ago when she kept getting negative feedback from concerned people. Allegations that HA was courting her simultaneously with another actress AA, and other girls, which TP dismissed in the beginning.

Apparently, TP was so mad at HA after she was shown his photos that confirmed her suspicion all along. The photos ignited the fire and her bottled up emotions. It was said that she was thankful for the photos shown to her for it nailed his real colors from the start. TP was so mad when she saw the pics that she wanted to slap him! That was such a big blow to her.

Allegedly, HA is still into a relationship with a top production member PM who has done him countless favors all these years. This PM was a big factor on the success of his latest project. He certainly owes PM a big gratitude, among so many things that PM had done for him. As is a cliche' in showbiz, "No such thing as a free lunch." Oh well..

Apart from those, there are also rumors, quietly going around that HA and a respected actress RA are playing sweet music together. Quite unbelievable for RA's status. But talks are wild, people are speculating. Such is a possibility considering the profile of RA's past relationships. If indeed something is cooking between the two, I think we know where to give credit to. RA certainly knows how to pleasure her man, especially on someone as young as HA.

On Cristalle Henares and Jason Sabio of Azkals

This message got to me forwarded by a common friend:

"HI guys! I don't know how to say this. You are all very close to me and Jason. We mutually decided to part ways. The reason is that we both are in different stages of our lives right now and have different plans for the near future (like him moving back to the States to finish school, etc). The easiest to move on is to do a clean cut and not even hang out with each other or be in the same place together. It's extreme but we have our reasons. I'm sending out this message so we don't have to discuss this anymore or talk about it when I see you guys. I hope you guys understand and can support me through this. "

We were quite surprised. Dr. Vicki Belo's heiress, Cristalle Henares and Azkals' Jason Sabio have called it quits. Everyone who knows them think it was a mature decision mutually agreed by both parties. The reasons were cited and we just have to respect that. Hoping they will be able to move forward from here on.

Is She a Kept Secret?

When Reality Show Discovery (RD) gained attention on national television, her fame was like here and there and dropped as quickly as the interest in the show waned. The problem with RD is that no image could really fit her. She can host as she had several stints as a co-host for several types of shows. She can act and do comedy as well. However, her talent is not really for lead roles. She is attractive enough to be linked to a few good looking men who were also part of the reality show.

After spending some time in the network that discovered her, she managed to surprise a few when she decided to move to another network. By this time, her career needed a boost. Hence, her new network gave her assignments in their shows. Because her face was familiar, she got attention, and eventually, slipped into oblivion. In short, she’s around but since there’s nothing that controversial in her life, she’s not really talked about…perhaps until now.

Perhaps it is an open secret that no one dared investigate or dare expose because a powerful network insider (NI) is involved. Well, since RD is amiable, it was easy for her to make friends, and she, of course, made acquaintances with NI. She also had common friends with the children of NI. Like a scene from a movie, the children of NI got wind that something was going on between NI and RD. They told their mother of the alleged affair. The mother (wife of NI) went to see RD and confronted her without investigating on the matter. RD got slapped by the wife of NI. She is also demanding that the network should not give any assignments to RD.

Does RD and NI really have a secret affair? Will the wife succeed in her adamant demand? If there is really something going on between RD and NI, will they dare continue with their tryst? Of course, any scandal of this sort will definitely affect the image of the network, and its publicists will immediately kill this issue. Who do you think are RD and NI?

Who Wore It Better: Bianca Manalo vs. Tim Yap

'PSY' Gangnam x AMALAYER Remix by DJ Brian Cua

More Value, More Life with Watsons

There are many things we value in life. We value our family, health, relationships and ourselves. Whatever you value, Watsons values you. That’s why Watsons brings you great value offers so you can get more out of life.

See how these personalities share what they value & how they found great value in Watsons.

A Mother’s Unconditional Love

Watsons newest ambassador & celebrity mom Christine Jacob-Sandejas quips, “My family is really my life. It gives me joy to take care of my husband and five kids – keeping all of us healthy is a top priority. It’s a reality though that healthcare is rather expensive especially with a fairly big family such as ours. It’s good to know that we now have more choices when it comes to branded and generic medicines like what Watsons is offering.”

Christine is conscious that quality is non-negotiable despite affordability. With Watsons Buy Generics and Save counters, the best quality generic medicines are available with up to 80% in savings, all made by trusted pharmaceutical companies like Unilab, Ritemed, Sandoz, UHP, Pharex and others.
When it’s My Turn to Take Care of My Parents

As a Pinoy value of caring for elders, children give time and effort to give back to their parents. As Venus Raj, Miss Universe 2010 runner-up recalls “We were really hard up before. When we were kids my mom would do multiple jobs to support our family. And Nanay has been there for us all the time - raising us and keeping us in good health. Pipilitin nya kami to drink our medicines as required - on time and after meals. Now that I am able to provide for her, I make sure she gets the best care possible especially with her maintenance medications. I value my mom’s health that’s why I want her to live a longer life and have more time with our family. Ako naman ang mag-aalaga sa kanya.”

Known to many, most elderly illnesses are hypertension, diabetes or high cholesterol & most of the time, the elders forget to take their prescriptions. With Watsons Compliance Packs, patients are reminded to strictly comply with prescription to win over their ailments. And the best thing about Compliance Packs, it’s priced up to 80% less than the leading brand.

Love for Myself

Since becoming a runner-up at the Miss Universe 2010, Venus Raj’s has become very occupied with the many facets of her new life - a beauty queen, a morning show host, an endorser and a daughter. And when the time to rest comes, she makes sure she gets to do the things she loves, too, like pampering herself with wellness activities.

Busy as a bee, Venus says, “Since I became Ms. Universe runner-up, life has never been the same. I got more than what I prayed and worked hard for. And now sabi ko sa sarili ko, no matter what I do, I would still think that there is no limit to what I can achieve. And dami ko pang gustong gawin at ma-achieve for me and my family kaya I really have to take care of myself.”

Like Venus, you too can reach the heights you want to conquer by staying focused and staying healthy all the time. With Watsons Comply & Save value offer, an SM Advantage Card member can enjoy the perks of more savings of up to 30% when purchasing featured vitamins & supplements.

For the One Who Means the World To Me

“To a woman like my wife (Christine Jacob-Sandejas), only the best lang talaga. We’ve been married for 12 years – Christine has supported me in all the ups and downs, and gave birth to our five great kids. In turn, of course I want to make sure that she is in top shape. It really amazes me how she is always ready to do different activities with me & the kids everyday! Christine takes care of everyone so I take care of her naman. She means the world to me,” gushed Paco Sandejas, loving husband to celebrity mom, Christine Jacob-Sandejas.

Actress Strikes Anywhere

After a string of controversial affairs, this lovely actress (LA) has decided to keep her encounters as quietly and as low key as possible. Recently LA embarked on a new advocacy and took concrete steps to create awareness for it. Thus, she would organize and join out -of -town trips. Of course, LA had noble intentions for her new cause and she even invited her friends to join in her activities.

Although her intentions are good, LA has another agenda. Her recent trips have become excuses to invite a good looking fellow (LF). In one trip together, they explored each other’s environment. LA and LF disappeared from their group and embarked on their own adventure. An hour or so after, unknown to LA and LF, they were seen leaving a villa together. But before leaving the place, while standing in front of the villa, LA was seen wiping her privates, and throwing the used tissue into the garbage bin. Ewww. Isn't it such a turnoff for someone of her stature to do something so personal in public view? Not only that, isn't she supposed to wash and soap herself after doing it? So unhygienic to just wipe! Ewww!

In the second incident, LF came to visit her on the set of her taping. Suddenly, LA asked her driver to buy something. She then entertained LF by letting him into her vehicle. In a few minutes, the vehicle was seen swaying, a movement similar to that of a kiddie ride - moving and rocking from side to side. Indeed, what an exploratory side trip for both of them! Just proves that LA wants to be properly nurtured wherever she is. And part of her beauty secret is making sure she doesn't miss a "thing"!
