Christmases’ Adrenalin Rush LA VIDA NEGRENSEwww.visayandailystar.com/2010/December/20/starlife.htmAs you are reading this column, I am still here in my hotel at the heart of SM Mall of Asia Complex, resting after being invited to celebrations and parties. The international motorcycle company had an exhibit, competition, games and concerts at MOA of all things involving their motorcycles. This four-day event kicked off last December 16 with a colorful Buganda. The racing team was unveiled featuring top brass riders who will represent the country in competitions. Around 300 riders paraded the main thoroughfares of Manila and were met by the company safety ambassador, Sen. Bong Revilla. The company ended the year with a bang by introducing their very first female scooter endorser, Angel Locsin. It was a great honor to be invited by the Ambassador of Qatar, H.E. Abdulla Al-Mutawaa, to attend the celebration of their National Day at his posh residence in Manila. Dignitaries and ambassadors came to witness another significant event in the oil producing country. The day commemorates the accession to the throne of His Highness Sheik Jassim Mahammed Al-Thani, founded the State of Quatar, to the rule of the country. Presently the Emir of the State of Qatar is H.H. Sheik Hamad Bin Khalifa Al-Thani. Christmas was felt early by employees of SV More Group of Companies. The party was held at the huge function room located at the 7th floor of their corporate headquarters, in Quezon City. Four groups competited for a total of P40,000 in cash prize. The groups from Metro Manila and Luzon and Admin, who bagged the grand prize with their “Transformers” theme; the Pharma Nutria MML for second place with their “Pirates of the Caribbean” performance; the Pharma Nutria MML Field won third place with their Charlie’s Angel performance. Crystal Santillana gave a superb rendition of the inspirational song “In Christ Alone.” She is the daughter of conglomerate founder and chairman Alberto Santillana.*

Vampires and wolves www.manilastandardtoday.com/insideEntertainment.htm?f=2010/december/24/entertainment1.isx&d=2010/december/24The conflict between the vampires and wolves in Imortal is getting more intense as John Lloyd Cruz and Angel Locsin find themselves now directly involve in the battle. Will their feelings for each other get in the way? Already Maricar Reyes, the doyenne of the living vampires is out to make Locsin’s life miserable, but it’s only Lloyd who is preventing her from wreaking Locsin’s life. The struggle between the fanged humans and those that transmogrify into fierce beasts have caught the fancy of primetime TV audiences across the archipelago. Imortal remains the primetime drama to beat. This series affirms Locsin’s popularity despite the negative publicity she has been getting in the past beginning with her decision to hurdle the tall fence dividing the Kapamilya and Kapuso networks. It also affirms John Lloyd Cruz’s status as a leading man inspite of Shaina Magdayao and the rumors about them. Imortal is seen on ABS-CBN, Monday to Friday, after Noah.

Aba'y sandamakmak na mga lalaking gumaganap bilang mga bampira ang kaeksena niya sa top-rating fantasy ng ABS-CBN na Imortal the other night, pero nagawa niyang makipagsabayan sa kanila. Totoo ka! She is now the new action queen. Kung sa paseksihan ay marami siyang kaeksena, sa anggulong ito ay mukhang taub niya ang lahat dahil ang husay-husay niyang gumawa ng stunts. Sa totoo, isa ang breath-taking action scenes niya sa Imortal sa mga dahilan kung bakit sandamakmak ang nakatutok sa fantaseryeng ito night after night. Finally, the brown-skinned actress seems to have found her niche in the business -- that of doing action-packed scenes that require agility and presence of mind. Kasama nga rin pala ni Angel sa fantaseryeng ito ng Dos sina John Lloyd Cruz (her leading man), Vivian Velez, Rocky Salumbides, Jake Roxas, Rico Blanco at marami pang iba. www.journal.com.ph/index.php/showbiz-tsismis/24827-angel-locsin-the-new-action-queen.html

Bong and Angel at Grand Suzuki InvasionTwo of the brightest stars in Philippine show business join the Suzuki Philippines Family! Senator Ramon "Bong" Revilla Jr. and Angel Locsin were launched as the new Suzuki Safety Ambassador and newest face to endorse the Suzuki Skydrive 125, respectively, at the Suzuki Grand Invasion in SM Mall of Asia. Both Senator Revilla and Angel are recognized for their talent in acting, as well as being service oriented; Revilla topped the senatorial race last May, while Angel Locsin is an advocate for GABRIELA. They were chosen by Suzuki Philippines because of these qualities, and most especially because they love motorcycles. Senator Bong is an avid motorcycle enthusiast, and so it became proper that he was the author of the Helmet Law. He values safety above all else, and rallies for support to change the negative impression on motorcycle riding caused by numerous accidents. During the Suzuki Grand Invasion, he encouraged the riders present to follow safety measures and discipline while riding. Angel has been known to play kick-ass women on the big screen and on television in her shows like "Darna," "Lobo" and the currently airing "Imortal." It is no surprise Suzuki Philippines chose her to be their "astig lady" endorsing the Skydrive 125. She embodies the Skydrive 125 with her powerful persona, and her fashion forward style. She endorsed the Skydrive 125 after trying it out herself, making sure that it really is a great motorcycle. Her commitment not only to her craft, but also to her fellowmen make her "astig," more than being able to turn into a big wolf during primetime. Both Senator Revilla and Angel embody the Suzuki Spirit of being "astig." They are testimonials to the idea that being tough does not mean pushing aside safety, discipline, and control. www.malaya.com.ph/12272010/ent2.html

Aga-Angel movie won't push through? abs-cbnNEWS.com Posted at 12/30/2010 12:58 PM | Updated as of 12/30/2010 12:58 PM
MANILA, Philippines - Actress Angel Locsin denied reports saying that her movie with Aga Muhlach with the working title "Huling Sayaw" won't push through.
It has been reported that the movie was cancelled after news came out saying Muhlach is allegedly moving to a rival TV network.
In an interview, Locsin stressed that she and Muhlach will finish "Huling Sayaw."
"Tuloy na tuloy po ang movie namin ni Mr. Aga Muhlach. Nasa US lang po siya ngayon, pero tuloy pa din po ang shooting namin," the "Imortal" star said.
Muhlach, who just finished his mini-series "M3" with Ai Ai delas Alas, is now in the United States with his family to celebrate Christmas and New Year.
Last week abs-cbnNEWS.com reported that Muhlach, a Kapamilya talent for 18 years, is transferring to TV5.
A source, who refused to be named due to lack of authority to speak on the matter, told abs-cbnNEWS.com that Muhlach signed an exclusive contract with the rival network last week.
The source also said the actor will start working for TV5 after the screening of his film with actress Angel Locsin. The upcoming movie is under ABS-CBN's movie outfit, Star Cinema.
ABS-CBN Corporate Communications Head Bong Osorio declined to comment on the transfer, saying he will wait for Muhlach's camp to issue an official statement first.
Muhlach is the latest ABS-CBN talent to move to the rival network. Former Kapamilya big stars Ruffa Gutierrez, Dolphy, Maricel Soriano and Willie Revillame are now TV5 talents.

Angel Locsin and Luis Manzano are glad to end 2010 by still being on good terms
At a recent visit to the set of the teleserye Imortal, Angel Locsin told members of the press that her main goal in 2011 is to be happy. Though she has been single for two years now, she revealed that there are some guys sending her feelers, but she is in no rush to date. Apart from her busy schedule, Angel said that her previous failed relationship with Luis Manzano has taught her to be more careful before getting committed. She said that she and Luis are on good terms and she is hoping that her former boyfriend will find happiness. Though they are not going out anymore, she explained that they still have respect for each other. Although she went through a lot of controversies last year, Angel said that she does not want to forget any of her life experiences. “Kasi lahat ng bagay, pangit man o ano meron akong natututunan,” she explained. “Ayoko talagang makalimot tatandaan ko para sa 2011 alam ko na ang gagawin ko if ever dumating ako sa ganitong sitwasyon.” For his part, Luis said that although he and Angel did not have a second chance at love, he is still happy that they were able to sort out their differences and be on good terms. “One of the best parts of the latter part of 2010, sa dinami ng pinagdaanan namin [ni Angel] specially nitong recent, matatapos namin ‘yung 2010 bilang magkaibigan and for me that’s a highlight,” he said. Luis has also mentioned in previous interviews that he hopes to marry the next girl he will be in a relationship with. “Sabi ko nga love will find a way and kunwari lang, hypothetical lang, na siya ay taga-showbiz, mas madaling intindihin dahil kung sino man ‘yon alam ang working schedule na hindi naman biro ang schedule ng artista.”

Celebrity Christmas alphabet DIRECTLINE By Boy Abunda (The Philippine Star) Updated December 24, 2010 12:00 AM Comments
Remember the song Christmas Alphabet popularized by Cliff Richard? It was so famous that young people whenever asked to define Christmas, they would answer, in a sing-song manner, Cliff’s, Christmas Alphabet. C is for the candy trimmed around the Christmas tree, H is for the happiness with all the family, R is for the reindeer prancing by the window pane, I is for the icing on the cake as sweet as sugar cane, S is for the stocking hanging on the chimney wall, T is for the toys beneath the tree so tall, M is for the mistletoe where everyone is kissed, A is for the angels who make up the Christmas list, S is for the Santa who makes every kid his pet, Be good and he’ll bring you everything in your Christmas alphabet! Inspired by the iconic Cliff Richard’s Christmas Alphabet, I have come up with my own celebrity definition of Christmas. C is for Cristine Reyes. Christine is one of the most controversial figures in 2010. She is hot copy whatever she does and wherever she goes. Cristine is a rara avis - vocal, spontaneous, often throwing caution to the wind. With her, what you see, is what you get. It’s either you’re black or you’re white. 2010 is a good year for Cristine. She has carved her own niche, established herself a name and found her own home on television. H is for Hermosa who is also Kristine but hers is with a K. Kristine’s beauty is stunningly classic. Her beauty belongs to Hollywood and the world. And speaking of names that start with K- of course the first one that comes to mind is Kris Aquino, the one and only Queen of All Media. To me, she will always be the funny, brilliant, compassionate governor-to-be of Tarlac. Inarguably, show business is not the same when Kris decides to be quiet! Thank God these are episodic moments which don’t last. She always comes back with a surprise! R is for Rayver Cruz. His patience is paying off. He used to wait in the wings often looked out by other actors his age. Rayver is a looker. If he sharpens his acting chops and gets the breaks, he might just sneak into big league territory. I is for Iya Villania. She’s pretty and smart. She and Drew Arellano make a wonderful mix. MYX sizzles with Iya. S is for Sharon Cuneta, the royal Mega Star. She still reigns supreme with a body of work in film, TV and music that has inspired generations of men and women who will always believe in love and fairytales. S is also Sarah Geronimo. Sarah will finally find the right boy in God’s good time. One guy allegedly promised to wait for her, another denied her, but Sarah we know, will have her own Prince Charming and she will be the Princess Sarah that she’s always been. T is for Toni Gonzaga. Funny girl this Toni. From being a fledgling host in PBB, Toni has blossomed into a fine young host. She is also a certified box-office star. Her bubbly personality is so infectious and that translates into every role that she makes whether in film or TV. M is for Mariel Rodriguez – She is in love and nobody argues against love. But Mariel works hard. She doesn’t complain. She’s not a whiner. She has a soft spot in my heart. She’s like the little sister I never had. A is for Angel Locsin – Angel is a feisty young woman. She will fight for her rights. She will speak her mind. She will do what she thinks is right. I love her sense of family. She is “cowboy” even with the celebrity trimmings.
S is for Shaina Magdayao. Controversies continue to follow her. Shaina has kept her poise and class. The truth prevailed. Besides, she owns the heart of the most brilliant actor of his generation who happens to be a beautiful human being.

Celebrities as endorsers HIDDEN AGENDA By Mary Ann Ll. Reyes (The Philippine Star) Updated December 19, 2010 12:00 AM
The same study also revealed that telenovelas prove to be a strong factor for building a credible endorser, as Angel Locsin, Gretchen Barretto, Angel Aquino, Derek Ramsey, and Cristine Reyes captured people’s attention this year. But unlike those who figured in actual controversies, consumers do not distinguish between the good guys and the villains in telenovelas when it comes to the actors/actresses credibility as endorsers.

Intense Imortal by Isah V. RedScenes in Imortal (starring Angel Locsin, John Lloyd Cruz, Maricar Reyes and many others) are becoming more intense as the vampires set to fight the wolves in this local take on the vampire and wolves theme prevailing now in Hollywood. Imortal is the most popular primetime drama series now in the Philippines. The Filipinos’ fascination with kababalaghan is propelling this series to unprecedented heights in primetime viewing. Also, the pairing of Cruz and Locsin, though seems awkward during the initial episodes of the series, proved to be a logical choice. Both have a mysterious appeal and they get when they are onscreen together. While it is not romantic, there is some kind of a sexual tension between them. Maricar Reyes, meanwhile, is proving that she is an actor to reckon with. She has portrayed a variety of roles in the past, but she shows her fangs right in this series. As the lead vampire, Reyes made up to be more beautiful than Locsin is making the screen sizzle with danger. While she is dangerous, she is also very attractive, enough to make the wolves grit with both desire for her and for her death. www.manilastandardtoday.com/insideEntertainment.htm?f=2010/december/15/entertainment1.isx&d=2010/december/15
