Zest is Dampened

Not too long ago, Passionate Actress PA was overwhelmed that her showbiz comeback would be very warmly welcomed by both her fans and colleagues - and for good reason. Then and now, PA exudes a fresh aura and a radiant positivity . To others, PA is a breath of fresh air, someone who is cool to work with. Indeed, she inspires without really trying.

It is no wonder that PA is besieged with offers from different networks. But like a true professional, she just doesn’t grab anything that comes her way. In television series for example, PA chooses only the roles that she can do justice to, carefully noting that she has self-imposed limitations to abide by. Yet, on the set, she always comes prepared for the demands of her work.

At the beginning of her latest series, PA enjoyed the camaraderie that she had with fellow actors, who are all respected in their fields. Everything went fine in the beginning until some tension started between her and Actress in Trouble AT.

PA is reportedly resentful of AT who, more often than not, is making work difficult not only for her but for other co-actors as well. On the set, both PA and AT often do scenes together - heavy scenes that is.

It started when AT comes to the set unprepared. You know, not studying one’s character and script will definitely cause major problems on the production as well as the cast. Reportedly, AT is very guilty of this. The characters of PA and AT require the both of them to be constantly in the scenes together.

However, PA resents it because she comes to the set well-prepared. Reportedly, their scenes together take as much as 4 to 5 takes everytime because AT often forgets her lines. PA has been complaining lately that among other things, having several retakes with AT takes too much of her time that would otherwise be spent going home early to be with her family.

Allegedly, PA made a request to the production to lessen her scenes with AT saying that it was draining her a lot of her energy. The request reportedly reached AT, and in no time the once sweet relationship between the two turned sour. It used to be that AT brought food for PA. Now, she had to stop it if only to telegraph her strong sentiments.

How long will their gap last? Perhaps, only the tail-end of their series can tell.

Heartbreaking Texts from Students on Sinking Korean Ferry

Heart-wrenching messages of fear, love and despair, sent by high school students from a sinking South Korean ferry, added extra emotional weight Thursday to a tragedy that has stunned the nation.

Nearly 300 people -- most of them students on a high school trip to a holiday island -- are still missing after the ferry capsized and sank on Wednesday morning.

"Sending this in case I may not be able to say this again. Mom, I love you," student Shin Young-Jin said in a text to his mother that was widely circulated in the South Korean media.

"Oh, I love you too son," texted back his mother -- unaware at the time that her boy was caught in a life and death struggle to escape the rapidly sinking vessel.

Unlike many others, the exchange had a happy ending as Shin was one of only 179 survivors rescued before the ferry capsized and went under the water.

Others were not so fortunate.

Another student, 16-year-old Kim Woong-Ki, sent a desperate text for help to his elder brother as the ship listed violently over to one side.

"My room is tilting about 45 degrees. My mobile is not working very well," Kim messaged.

Seeking to reassure him, his brother said he was sure help was on the way.

"So don't panic and just do whatever you're told to do. Then you'll be fine," he messaged back.

There was no further communication and Kim was listed among the 287 people on board still unaccounted for.

Sadly his brother's advice was similar to that of the crew, who controversially ordered passengers to stay put when the ship first foundered.

Angry relatives said this resulted in the passengers getting trapped when the ferry keeled over, cutting off routes of escape.

That grim scenario was encapsulated in the texts of an 18-year-old student, identified in the local media by her surname Shin.

"Dad, don't worry. I'm wearing a life vest and am with other girls. We're inside the ship, still in the hallway," the girl messaged to her father.

Her distraught father wrote back urging her to try and get out, but it was already too late.

"Dad, I can't. The ship is too tilted. The hallway is crowded with so many people," she responded in a final message.

Some parents managed a last, traumatic phone call with their children as they tried to escape.

"He told me the ship was tilted over and he couldn't see anything," one mother recalled of a panicked conversation with her student son.

"He said 'I haven't put on the life jacket yet', and then the phone went dead," the mother told the Dong-A Ilbo newspaper.

The JoongAng Ilbo published excerpts from a chatroom conversation between several students on the ferry.

"Hey guys, let's make sure we meet up alive," messaged one.

"I love you all," responded another.

It was not clear if the students were among those rescued.

Why Luis Manzano Has Not Bought an Engagement Ring for Angel Locsin

Source: www.entertainment.inquirer.net

Luis Manzano, who dated Jennylyn Mercado for two years before “rekindling old flame” with Angel Locsin, is aware of negative reactions to what happened. In fact, he told the Inquirer recently, “Some people thought there was connivance with our respective partners.”

He and Angel are “thankful to those who believed our [reconciliation] was really by chance, by destiny,” Luis said.

Angel had been separated from football star Phil Younghusband for only two months when she announced that she was back with Luis. Neither of them discussed why they left their previous relationships.

No talkies

“Angel and I avoided each other for three years. There were occasions when we had adjacent dressing rooms at ABS-CBN, but we never said hello. When we spoke again, everything was pleasant,” Luis told reporters during the launch of Sensodyne’s “No to Pangingilo” campaign, of which he is a spokesperson.

Many of his show biz friends are engaged or tying the knot next year, the 32-year-old TV host-actor noted, but he isn’t going the same route anytime soon. “I want to make a little more money, to give my future family a good life,” Luis said. “With my current income, that would probably take three to five more years.”

The proposal

He has laid out the scenario for his marriage proposal, though. “I can’t give details,” he said, and no, he hasn’t bought a ring.

“I was surprised at the cost. All this time I thought P1 million was far out. And then I find out there are rings that cost up to P2 million, even P3 million!”

If he got Angel such a ring, Luis said, “We’d get married in an adoration chapel, para [bawas] gastos.”

Seriously, they have not discussed where. “There’s that sense of lawfulness and legitimacy when you’re married inside a church. On the other hand, there’s beauty in doing it outdoors, the way my friends Iya (Villania) and Drew (Arellano) did it,” he said.

Hopeless romantic

He’s not ashamed to admit he’s a hopeless romantic. “I was more romantic and expressive than Angel in the first part of our relationship,” Luis revealed. “Ngayon, humahabol na siya (she’s catching up).”

To illustrate: “She’s the type who hardly holds her cell phone. Now, she sends me text messages as soon as she wakes up or when she gets home. She makes effort to tell me how her day went. It’s these small things that really count for me.”

Luis recounted Angel’s most recent meeting with his mom, Batangas Gov. Vilma Santos. “My mom said something like, ‘Welcome back to your home.’ I just sat back and watched them. I didn’t want to intrude; it looked like they were making up for lost time.”

He hopes to have as close a relationship with the actress’ dad, Angel Colmenares. “Things between us look great, but I don’t want to speak on Tito’s behalf,” Luis said.

A Bonding Like No Other

Image courtesy of www.englishbaby.com

The world is weird, crazy and the people in it. Thus some people declare when confronted with situations that are beyond their capacity to comprehend.

Sometimes we feel that people have lost their minds for doing the things they do that are out of the norm. Either we like or unlike a person - nothing in between. That usually happens especially if the said person who was once upright and respectable suddenly does stuff that shocks and brings out the goose-bumps in ordinary Tom, Dick and Harry.

Often, people evolve and their curiosity to try and experiment on things that were formerly “taboo” fuels that hunger. For some, there’s a thin line between creativity and curiosity. Reportedly, stuff like this are normally prevalent in showbiz where celebrities often have a difficult time discerning what is reel from real.

How is that when you are reliably informed that a young and Pretty Star PS ‘pays for pleasure?’

Yes and yes! The smart and educated PS who had since broken up with her showbiz boyfriend/s is now allegedly hiring male therapists from a spa center not just to massage her but also to do ‘other services’ she requires to be done on her. Truth be told, I nearly fell off my chair when my source reported this to me.

Gosh, what happened? Is PS turning out to be a young cougar? Is she bored? What gives? With her face and body, it is very hard to justify that this talented star had to pay for sex? What a crazy world indeed!

What is crazier still is that she claims to have a boyfriend! Is the boyfriend even aware of his girlfriend’s extra-curricular bonding with the boys? My guess is reserved.

Roxanne Cabanero Loses Job Over Vhong Navarro Case

Former pageant contestant Roxanne Cabanero is now jobless after she accused actor-host Vhong Navarro of raping her.

"Right now, actually I'm not [working]," Cabanero told ABS-CBN News Ginger Conejero on Monday. "I lost my job because of this case."

Cabanero, who was formerly a freelance research analyst and a paralegal, clarified that she was not fired. She said the company she was working for opted not to renew her contract following the controversy involving Navarro.

"It's just that nag-end na 'yung contract ko and I tried to renew it and then they said na... I cannot comment anymore, sorry," she said.

Cabanero filed her rape complaint against Navarro last February 19, at the height of the legal battle between the actor and the camp of businessman Cedric Lee and model Deniece Cornejo, who are now facing arrest warrants.

She has repeatedly denied having ties with them, saying she does not want Lee's case affecting her own legal battle with Navarro.

Cabanero alleged that Navarro raped her in 2010 during her time as a contestant in the Miss Bikini Philippines pageant.

While her complaint-affidavit specified that the alleged incident happened on the night of April 24, Cabanero has since claimed she can no longer remember the exact date. This, after Island Cove and comedian Vice Ganda supported Navarro's claim that he was performing at the resort in Cavite on April 24.

Aside from a perjury case filed by Navarro, Cabanero was also slapped with a P1.6-million lawsuit by the organizer of Miss Bikini Philippines "for the damage sustained by [the organization's] goodwill and business reputation."

"Mahirap, but I'm trying my best to be strong. Nagpapakatatag ako," Cabanero said on Monday. "And I'm very confident about this case, kasi sinasabi ko 'yung totoo."

Asked if she remains hopeful about "seeking justice," despite some setbacks, Cabanero said, "Kung iyon ang pagdadaanan ko dahil pinaglaban ko ang sarili ko at ang karapatan ko, gagawin at gagawin ko ang lahat."

Despite losing her job, Cabanero said she does not regret filing the rape case against Navarro, "dahil pinaglaban ko ang sarili ko, pinaglaban ko 'yung karapatan ko bilang isang babae, at tama lang na gawin ko 'yon dahil lahat naman tayo may karapatan."

"Na-rape ako. At masakit. Right now, it's just... Mahirap 'yung pinagdadaanan ko."
