Bea gives Angel advice on John Lloydabs-cbnNEWS.com | 03/19/2010 1:30 PM MANILA, Philippines - Actress Bea Alonzo said she and hunk actor John Lloyd Cruz became good friends while shooting their movie "Miss You Like Crazy" under Star Cinema. "Ang dami naming natutunan talaga. When it comes to acting, ang dami kong natutunan kasi natuto kaming mag-usap na hindi namin nagagawa before pa. Natuto kaming mag-usap about the characters, natuto kami na to make conversation about the character and natuto kaming maging magkaibigan talaga," Alonzo, Cruz's long-time on-screen partner, said. Alonzo said she's happy with the outcome of her latest project with Cruz. During the interview, Alonzo also had a message to actress Angel Locsin, who will be the next leading lady of Cruz in ABS-CBN's upcoming project. "Ang advice ko lang kay Angel ay i-enjoy niya every moment everyday na makaka-trabaho nya si John Lloyd because it's quite an experience to be working with him," Alonzo said. Alonzo added that she's a fan of Cruz, and she also admires Locsin as an actress. "Kay Angel, alam mo, she's a fine actress. Alam natin na na-nominate siya sa Emmys at ang gaganda ng soap na ginawa niya. I'm sure magiging maganda ang pagsasama nila ni John Lloyd because I'm fond of John Lloyd. He is a good actor talaga," Alonzo said. as of 03/19/2010 1:30 PM www.abs-cbnnews.com/entertainment/03/19/10/bea-gives-angel-advice-john-lloyd

ABS-CBN shows gain an international followingby Napoleon Quintos | March 19, 2010 8:44 AM More than reaching out to Filipinos around the world with The Filipino Channel (TFC), ABS-CBN has also reached new frontiers as Kapamilya teleseryes earn a huge following even among non-Filipino viewers. In a press conference, ABS-CBN International Sales and Distribution Head Reena De Guzman Garingan talked about the growing demand from foreign television networks for acquisition and broadcast of Kapamilya teleseryes. This 2010, ABS-CBN dramas Dahil May Isang Ikaw, Tayong Dalawa, and Lobo are expected be aired in several countries in Asia and Africa.Dahil May Isang Ikaw, with the English title Destined Hearts, will soon air in Malaysia and other countries in Asia. The teleserye stars Jericho Rosales and Kristine Hermosa who were first seen in the teleserye Pangako Sa ‘Yo, which in the past ten years has remained and continues to make it big in numerous countries. Recently, Pangako Sa ‘Yo aired on China’s national television and rated second over all local and foreign programs airing in the country. The teleserye even hit the Top 30 list in China’s national weekly rankings, covering over 2,000 channels and capturing 1.3 billion viewers. Pangako Sa ‘Yo (with the English title The Promise) was also previously aired successfully in Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, Cambodia, and Africa. Non-Filipino viewers from these countries became instant fans of Jericho and Kristine. Tayong Dalawa will also soon air in Malaysia, Brunei, and Kenya, with the English title The Two Of Us and will be dubbed in local languages. Tayong Dalawa was top-billed by the hot love team of Kim Chiu and Gerald Anderson. Their first teleserye, Sana Maulit Muli, was also dubbed in Mandarin and shown in Taiwan with the English title Chances. Lobo, which starred Piolo Pascual and Angel Locsin, is currently aired in Brunei and will be released in Indo-China, Asia, Europe, and Africa this year. Lobo has earned international recognition, named Best Telenovela at the 30th BANFF World Television Festival in Toronto, while Angel bagged a Best Actress nomination from the Internation Emmy Awards. Lobo was released internationally as She-Wolf: The Last Sentinel.Reena explained what makes ABS-CBN teleseryes a big hit among non-Filipino viewers. “In business conferences abroad, I always tell foreign clients [that the] Philippines was under Spanish rule for 300 years. From them we got our religion, Christianity, which had become the basis of our lives. This makes us unique from the rest of Asia. Kung sa ibang foreign dramas makikita niyo na ang laging tema e adult, tipong nagkapalit ng asawa, nagtaksil. Sa atin our dramas are more family-oriented and may values. Maraming countries kasi ang nakalimot na doon so through our programs naibabalik nila ‘yun.” Also making it big abroad are other Kapamilya teleseryes Sana’y Wala Nang Wakas, Maging Sino Ka Man, It Might Be You, Iisa Pa Lamang, Ikaw Ang Lahat Sa Akin, Gulong Ng Palad, Prinsesa ng Banyera, Sa Piling Mo, and Kay Tagal Kang Hinintay which was dubbed in French to cater to French-speaking regions in Europe and Asia. Over the past 15 years, around 30 ABS-CBN dramas have been dubbed and aired in 15 countries in Asia, five in Europe, and in Africa. These series were dubbed for 12 French-speaking countries, 15 English-speaking countries, and five Portuguese-speaking countries. www.abs-cbn.com/Feature/Article/6963/ABS-CBN-shows-gain-an-international-following.aspx

Is there a rift between Toni Gonzaga and Angel Locsin??March 20, 2010 There has been a lot of speculations lately that a rift has emerged between Toni Gonzaga and Angel Locsin. This rift supposedly began when it was announced a moment ago that Angel had been pulled out of the upcoming fantasy series “Kokey at Ako” and Toni Gonzaga is now taking over the lead role. When Toni was asked to comment on the issue, she said “Actually naninibago nga ako kasi nung unang na-confirm na si Angel ang gagawa nitong Kokey at Ako, I was among the first one na nag-interview sa kanya tungkol sa project na ito. Super happy pa siya at excited na gawin itong Kokey at Ako. Medyo ironic lang for me na ako pala ‘yung papalit sa kanya dito.” “Nung narinig ko na sa akin na ibibigay yung role ditosa Kokey, nag-worry ako sa magiging reaction ng mga fans ni Angel,” Toni continued. So is there really trouble a brewing between the two popular actresses? Well it turns out that there’s none, Angel actually only had good words to say to Toni – and Toni only had good words to say to Angel as well. “I’m very happy na puro kind words ang narinig ko kay Angel. Mabait talaga siyang tao. Kahit naman anong mangyari, Angel Locsin is Angel Locsin. Walang pwedeng pumalit sa kanya.” Toni clarified that it was ABS-CBN management who was responsible for the casting changes – she had nothing to do with it at all. “Hindi pa kami nagkakausap ni Angel. I guess alam naming lahat na ang lahat eh management decision. Kami bilang talents eh sumusunod lang sa kung anong proyekto ang ibigay sa amin.” Toni also said that she is in fact excited about the upcoming TV series between Angel and John Lloyd. “Kahit nawala sa kanya itong Kokey meron naman siyang gagawing isa pang napakagandang proyekto, ‘yung teleserye nga with John Lloyd. Ngayon pa lang marami nang nasasabik sa first time nilang pagsasama. Isa ako sa mga magaabang niyan. Sana kapag nag-promote siya nun e ma-interview ko uli siya, ma-clear din naming dalawa na wala namang issue sa pagitan namin.” Source: ABS CBN

Toni Gonzaga denies having any conflict with Angel Locsinby Napoleon Quintos | March 20, 2010 2:16 AM It was recently announced that Toni Gonzaga was taking over the lead role in the upcoming fantaserye Kokey at Ako after Angel Locsin was apparently pulled out from the show. During the pictorial for the series, Toni clarified that it was ABS-CBN management who was responsible for the casting changes. “Hindi pa kami nagkakausap ni Angel. I guess alam naming lahat na ang lahat e management decision. Kami bilang talents e sumusunod lang sa kung anong proyekto ang ibigay sa amin.” Angel was pulled out from Kokey at Ako because she was scheduled to start work on a teleserye that will have her star opposite John Lloyd Cruz. Meanwhile, Vhong Navarro will still be the leading man in Kokey at Ako. Upon hearing that she was to replace Angel, Toni recalled, “Actually naninibago nga ako kasi nung unang na-confirm na si Angel ang gagawa nitong Kokey at Ako, I was among the first one na nag-interview sa kanya tungkol sa project na ito. Super happy pa siya at excited na gawin itong Kokey at Ako. Medyo ironic lang for me na ako pala ‘yung papalit sa kanya dito.” The actress-TV host added that she also had some concerns about accepting the project. “Nung narinig ko na sa akin na ibibigay yung role ditosa Kokey, nag-worry ako sa magiging reaction ng mga fans ni Angel.” But when she learned that Angel had only good words for her in a statement published online, Toni was relieved and pleased. “I’m very happy na puro kind words ang narinig ko kay Angel. Mabait talaga siyang tao. Kahit naman anong mangyari, Angel Locsin is Angel Locsin. Walang pwedeng pumalit sa kanya.” In return, Toni said that she will also be looking forward to Angel’s much anticipated project with John Lloyd. “Kahit nawala sa kanya itong Kokey meron naman siyang gagawing isa pang napakagandang proyekto, ‘yung teleserye nga with John Lloyd. Ngayon pa lang marami nang nasasabik sa first time nilang pagsasama. Isa ako sa mga magaabang niyan.

Angel Locsin’s friends defend the actress from nasty issuesby Bernie Franco | March 22, 2010 12:21 AM Umalma ang mga kaibigan ni Angel Locsin sa mga ibinabatong intriga sa aktres na diumano’y lasenggera, gimikera at lumayas sa bahay. Kabi-kabilang write-ups kasi ang nagsilabasan sa websites at sa print kamakailan na puro naglalaman ng mga intriga na ibinabato sa aktres ngayon. Kamakailan daw ay naglayas si Angel sa kanilang bahay at dumiretso sa airport at lumipad patungong Hong Kong. Subalit noong araw ding iyon ay nag-post naman si Angel sa kanyang Twitter account na nagsasabing naglilinis siya ng bahay. Ang kanya naman daw pag-iinom ay dulot ng pagiging bad influence ng kanyang kaibigan, ang vocalist ng Parokya ni Edgar na si Chito Miranda. “Actually si Angel at si (Chito) silang dalawa ang sobrang maalaga sa sarili nila. So hindi ko alam kung bakit sila nai-isyu ng ganon,” ani Cristine Reyes sa panayam sa kanya ng The Buzz. “Sa tinagal-tagal na magkakilala kami, never ko naman siyang nakitang nalasing,” ayon naman kay Valerie Concepcion, kaibigan din ni Angel. Itinanggi naman ng ex-boyfriend ni Angel na si Luis Manzano ang mga paratang sa aktres at sinabing puro walang katotohanan ang mga pagbibintang sa kanya. “I can vouch for it. I can bet everything that I have [na] hindi siya lasenggera. She is not an alcoholic. I know that for a fact and people who know her and people who love her know that na hindi siya ganun.” SA POV (Points, Opinions, Violent Reactions) portion ng The Buzz noong March 21 ay nagsabi rin ng pagsuporta sina Boy Abunda at Kris Aquino na sinabing personally ay alam nilang hindi magagawa ni Angel ang mga ibinibintang sa kanya. “Masasabi ko lang you cannot put a good woman down,” ani Kris. “You can say all the nastiest things in the world about her but babangon at babangon ‘yan why, she has a good heart. Matulungin siya sa ibang tao na sincere na hindi man pini-press release pa and she’s a good frined. So ako I’m standing by you on this, Gel.” www.abs-cbn.com/Feature/Article/6986/Angel-Locsin-s-friends-defend-the-actress-from-nasty-issues.aspx

I love this article although Angel Locsin’s name has only been mentioned in Ricky Lo's article in Philippine Star but being identified as one among our top caliber actresses is an honor by itself …I do wish that ABS-CBN should consider the suggestion, to create an Oscar worthy movie at least once … >>>>>>>> FUNFARE By Ricardo F. Lo (The Philippine Star) Updated March 23, 2010 12:00 AM [omitted other parts] From Funfare’s Big Apple correspondent Edmund Silvestre, this post-Oscar comment: I think it’s high time the biggest movie outfits in the country like Star Cinema, Regal Films, Viva Films and GMA Films joined forces kahit once lang to produce an epic Filipino motion picture na Oscar caliber...’yung tipong pelikulang Pilipino na yayanig sa mundo like Himala or Genghis Khan...hindi ‘yung minadali o pinaspasan na film na naghahabol ng deadline... kailangan ‘yung pagbubuhasan talaga ng creativity, passion, time and budget (including promotions, of course, with the help of the government and other sponsors) like how Chinese, Taiwanese or Japanese filmmakers do... at kailangan din puro de kalibreng Filipino artists ang kasama, mga tipong Christopher de Leon, Phillip Salvador, Bembol Roco, Vilma Santos, Nora Aunor, Gina Pareno, Gina Alajar, Jaclyn Jose, to Piolo Pascual, John Lloyd Cruz, Angel Locsin, Coco Martin. Gusto ko nang makakita ng Filipino film nominated sa Oscar Best Foreign Film. Tumatanda na ako sa kahihintay. To continue reading other topics, click here

Angel, umaming nagbabad sa barby Nel Alejandrino Monday, 22 March 2010 17:51 Angel Locsin admits that she did go to a bar, actually, not just once but a few times, pero hindi para maglasing but to observe what’s going on there. Gusto rin daw niyang malaman what a bar maid or a bar waitress does, especially during peak hours. She learned everything daw that goes on inside a bar first-hand. She even got to interview some waitresses and got an insight on the kind of job they are in. Explained Angel: “First time kong makapasok ng bar. I needed to, since my role in the movie which pairs me with Aga Muhlach is that of a Japayuki.” Part of the movie, she also said, will be shot in Japan. “Tip pala ang bumubuhay sa mga waitress at waiter,” sey pa ni Angel. “And most of them work in a bar just to earn. Ang ilan nga sa kanila ay mga estudyante. “From what I know, ang mga Japayuki natin sa Japan are just there to earn bigger money for their families.” * * * Now, guess what? Even before she was offered the role of a former bar girl in the Philippines na naging Japayuki sa Japan, alam n’yo bang may negosyo nang bubuksan si Angel, isang bar at restaurant na papangalanan niyang Fuel? “Surely,” ani Angel, “this report will fuel everyone’s presumption na umiinom nga ako. But I don’t.” The bar and restaurant, na ang mamamahala ay ang kanyang elder sister na si Ella, is actually just a business venture they thought of. Other investors include some of Angel’s friends. Located in a building which the actress and her family own along Commonwealth Avenue, theirs, according to Ella, will be the first bar and restaurant in the area. The building also houses other establishments, including a spa and massage parlor. “Naisip ni Gel (Angel’s pet name) na itayo ang negosyong ito para makatulong daw siyang magka-trabaho, kahit man lang waiters, janitors o kung anupaman, ang mga taong hindi nakatapos ng college.” [omitted parts not related to Angel Locsin, continue reading in Online Journal …]

note: Angel Locsin and Chito Mirada have denied already several times that they are simply friends, nothing more. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> by Chan-Chan Torres Monday, 22 March 2010 18:39 [omitted other parts] NAKITA namin si Chito Miranda, lead vocalist ng Parokya ni Edgar, sa Lucena City kasama ang ilang singers at banda para magbigay ng kasiyahan doon. Nang nakita namin si Chito, agad na komento ng isang kaibigan sa panulat ay ang malaki ng ipinagbago ng singer. As in, may glow at hindi mukhang ngarag si Chito. Si Angel Locsin nga kaya ang dahilan? Matagal nang tapos ang relasyon ni Chito sa aktres na si Kaye Abad, na kung ilang taon ding naging magnobyo. Pero sad to say, nauwi rin sa wala ang kanilang pagsasama. Lately, isa si Chito sa mga na-link kay Angel since wala ring nobyo ang aktres. May mga nakakita sa kanilang lumabas and it seems they enjoy each other’s company. Ito ay hindi rin naman dineny o kinumpirma ng singer. Napangiti lang siya nu’ng tinanong namin. Mukhang nahihilig si Chito sa drama actress, huh! Una si Kaye, ngayon naman si Angel. Hindi pa naman sinabi ni Chito kung nanliligaw siya kay Angel. Ang tanong, may pag-asa kaya siya sa puso ng aktres na tila enjoy sa pagiging single? Itanong kaya natin kay Luis Manzano. www.journal.com.ph/index.php/showbiz-tsismis/5694-shaina-pinag-stay-ni-lloydie-sa-sosyal-na-hotel-sa-bora.html

The truth about AngelFUNFARE By Ricardo F. Lo (The Philippine Star) Updated March 24, 2010 12:00 AM Did Angel Locsin run away from home and take a cab to the airport (going to Hong Kong) as the tabs would have it? “Yes,” admitted Angel during a free-wheeling dinner at Annabel’s the other night with a few movie writers, “I did go to Hong Kong but I did not run away from home.” Calling herself a “random girl” (meaning she makes spur-of-the-moment decisions), Angel added that it’s no big deal for her to take a cab (not flagged at random on the street but hired by calling a cab company) because, when she feels like it, she takes the jeepney or the MRT or even the tricycle without her co-passengers recognizing her even if she doesn’t have to be incognito. She also feels safe, she said, because she knows Muay Thai, the Thai martial art which she learned from Robin Padilla when they did the GMA show Asian Treasure. “I went to Hong Kong with a friend para magpahinga,” said Angel who had to come back the same day to fulfill some commitments and flew right back to Hong Kong the next day to finish the “breather.” Laughed Angel, who’s turning 25 on April 23, “Bakit naman ako maglalayas, eh, bahay ko ‘yon and I didn’t have naman any problem?” Not with her family nor with her immediate past manager, Becky Aguila, nor with her career (even if she had to wait for nine months for a new assignment). “Okey kami ni Tita Becky (now recuperating at a hospital), we talk,” said Angel who is now managed by Ethel Ramos. Her last soap, Only You (with Diether Ocampo), ended middle of last year and since then, Angel occupied herself with only guestings and doing commercials. She’s now preparing for Imortal, her new ABS-CBN soap with John Lloyd Cruz to be directed by Chito Roño and Jerry Sineneng, and a yet untitled movie with Aga Muhlach to be directed by Olive Lamasan. Is Angel also a lasengera, according to the grapevine? “Not naman lasengera,” said Angel. “I do drink, not beer but vodka. I drink but not naman to get drunk. You can ask my friends.” She’s even learning how to smoke, as per “order” of direk Olive, in preparation for her role as a Japayuki in her movie with Aga. “I go to bars with friends para na ring preparation for the movie,” added Angel. And her love life? Zero, would you believe? She has made peace with Luis Manzano. “At least nag-uusap na kami at wala naman kaming bastusan; binababa ko na siya kapag bumibisita sa bahay,” said Angel who denied any romantic relationship with Parokya ni Edgar vocalist Chito Miranda or the scions of two business tycoons. Angel is also involved in helping the Ondoy victims. Asked how she felt about reports that her ex-boyfriend Oyo Sotto and his girlfriend Kristine Hermosa are getting married in the US, Angel begged off from making any comment. “Kuwento sa akin ni Oyo, si Kristine daw sobrang maka-Diyos, maasikaso, very independent at masarap magluto,” said Angel. “Wife material daw talaga.” www.philstar.com/Article.aspx?articleId=560774&publicationSubCategoryId=70

Ni Veronica R. Samio (Pilipino Star Ngayon) Updated March 24, 2010 12:00 AM Para namang hindi kapani-paniwala na naglalasing daw si Angel Locsin dahil sa kakulangan ng projects at dahil hindi maganda ang takbo ng kanyang lovelife? Palagi raw itong napagkikita sa mga bars. ‘Yung pagpunta niya sa mga bars ay baka may kinalaman sa bagong negosyo na bubuksan niya. Baka naman pinag-aaralan lamang niyang mabuti kung paano magpatakbo nito. At siyempre may pumupunta ba sa mga bars na hindi umiinom? Pero hindi sapat ito para tawagin siyang lasengga. ‘Yung kakulangan niya ng projects ay hindi dahilan sa walang offer kundi siya ang umaayaw. Baka dumating na siya sa punto na ang mga gustong projects na lamang niya ang gagawin niya. At mga substantial projects ang hinahanap niya, yung kahit kokonti ay worth it naman. Ever since naman, hindi quantity kundi quality ang primary consideration niya sa pagtanggap ng trabaho. www.philstar.com/Article.aspx?articleId=560748&publicationSubCategoryId=96
