Finally, after much speculation, Kapamilya's erstwhile "prodigal" son is back. It's now all systems go for Derek Ramsay as his ban from the network has been officially lifted by the management. That only means the door is now open for the MMFF's newest Best Actor awardee to do projects, guest and promote his movies/projects in his former home studio that once nourished his career.

It can be recalled that ABS-CBN's ban was assumed to have stemmed from the actor's transfer to TV5 some three (3) years ago. The ban allegedly disallowed Derek from setting foot inside the network premises, as well as prohibiting any kapamilya talents from even mentioning his name during promotion of their movies with him. Derek was also edited out from the movie posters and trailer aired on the said station.

Now that everything had been patched up, Derek and company can never be happier. Word had it that it was network boss, Gabby Lopez, who gave Derek the green light.

The actor's camp welcomed this with much excitement and renewed anticipation as this development is a major boost to Derek's career, notwithstanding Kapamilya's promotion and machinery to back him up. Certainly, the Filipino-British actor's winning the MMFF Best Actor plum proved to be a double blessing. Heard that his first project with the Kapamilya network is a movie with actress/host, Kris Aquino. Not bad to start the new year. Cheers!

They say that old habits die hard, and that a habit once formed is very difficult to break. Indeed, even if one has leveled up economically, the old, bad habit ingrained for years stings and rubs for life – at least to one actress called the Tricky One TO.

TO was one of the invited guests to a grand event recently. At the dinner table at the reception, she was seated next to Character Actress CA. Just like everyone present, both were in awe at the grandeur and opulence of the occasion. While they were talking, TO reportedly fell so in love with the valuable pieces of silverware in front of her. She held each piece carefully while talking to CA and marveled at how beautiful they were. CA on the other hand, couldn’t agree more.

When dinner was served, TO and CA continued their banter, with TO focusing on the beauty of the occasion. Here’s the catch: Allegedly, as the party was nearing its final hours, TO was reportedly spotted secretly and carefully putting in some pieces of silverware inside her bag. This allegedly happened a few moments before she left the table and eventually, the venue.

Meanwhile, CA who was still at the party became distraught when she heard some waiters talking to the catering head about some missing silverwares on their table. Immediately, TO flashed in CA's mind and suspected her as the culprit, ouch!

As she listened further to the catering staff talking to each other about what happened, CA knew that they had a major problem. Allegedly, she felt shame for herself knowing that fellow star TO could have a hand in it. Not long after, as if by instinct, CA reportedly talked to the catering head and volunteered to pay for the missing silverwares. Wow, such a good soul!

But wait, wasn’t TO also involved in a similar tricky incident at a popular mall sometime ago? At her age, she seems to have mastered the trade so shamelessly. But why? Wish I have the answer.
