My Monster Mom, a flop?


Annabelle sent a text message to PEP (Philippine Entertainment Portal) last July 8. She said:

"First of all wala, silang proof na bina-blackmail ko ang mga Gozon. Second, they have no proof flop ang movie ko! Dapat umikot sila sa mga sinehan mula nung Wednesday which is opening day, Thurs, Fri, Sat, Sun dahil nagbigay na ang GMA ng figures, tumawag sa akin si Ricky Lo. 25-M Wednesday to Monday, which is six days showing. Alam ko ‘yang naninira sa akin taga-showbiz. Di nila ma-accept na ‘Box-Office Star' ang title—‘yan ang binigay sa akin ng GMA Films. Hindi ako ang nagsabi kundi ang GMA mismo."

She also said that maging ang ilang tao ng Star Cinema, na siya namang movie outfit ng ABS-CBN, ay aminado na maganda at bongga ang naging takbo at kita ng pelikula mula nang magbukas ito last July 2. Sabi pa ni Anabelle, "I went to Star Cinema this a.m. for a meeting with Richard and KC [Concepcion]. Everybody congratulated me. Sabi daw kasi ng Star Cinema booking, malakas ang movie ko."

See? Malakas nga daw ang movie ni Madam Anabelle! haha Siguro nga, siguro hindi din. Ewan, i haven't seen the movie. Well it's up to the poeple who was abe to see it.

Manny Pacquiao as Phillipines' Special Envoy in 2008 Olympics


PGMA (President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo) has appointed Manny Pacquiao to be the Special Envoy of the President for the Games in the 2008 Olympics this August and the country’s flag-bearer. WOW! That would really be an honor for the Pacman.

During a courtesy call by Pacquiao in Malacañang, Arroyo made the said announcement. She told everyone who came to see Pacquiao that Manny Pacquiao made history for being the only Asian to hold four world titles in four weight classes. Again a big WOW! for that. Haha

Press Secretary Jesus Dureza said the special envoy title was “a fitting tribute by a grateful nation to the sterling quality of excellence of a Filipino at his best.”

Executive Secretary Eduardo Ermita said that as ambassador, Pacquiao would be carrying the national flag at the Beijing Olympic’s opening ceremony which will be attended by Arroyo herself upon the invitation of Chinese President Hu Jintao.

"Can you imagine, the one that will hold the flag ... is a Filipino world champion? Of course, Ambassador Pacquiao, imagine that, pinakyaw nya na lahat” he said.

The 29-year-old Manny Pacquiao, widely considered the best "pound for pound" boxer in the world having won his fourth world title in a fourth weight class, destroyed Diaz of the United States in nine rounds to take the World Boxing Council (WBC) lightweight title in Las Vegas on June 29. WOOhhoooo!


who's not invited in Cheska Garcia's wedding?

Gorgeous Cheska Garcia is brimming with excitement specially that it's just few months away from her most awaited wedding day. During the birthday party of Ruffa Gutierrez which was held at the Blue Leaf Events Place in Fort Bonifaci in Taguig, she revealed to PEP (Philippine Entertainment Portal) that she can’t wait to marry Cager Douglas Kramer! OMG i can smell the love from here. duUuuuhhh... anyway, she’s on cloud 9 ya'll discussing her wedding plans for October 9 this year.


But then Cheska brought up one topic that has been bothering her family for months now: The issues confronting Patrick Garcia. June 15, Patrick Garcia, His younger bro, left for the States to continue his studies and get away from all the “intrigas” surrounding him here sa Pinas. Most of these intrigas have to do with his relationship with the mother of his first baby, Jennylyn Mercado,

My brother is a good guy,” Cheska said. “We were brought up with breeding, with class. You know, it’s not even class…I mean, each person can have class that they claim to have, but you know what, we are not like that.” It's been months now since this Jennylyn versus Patrick issue has been going on. Each camp eh magka salunngat ang sinasabi sa isa't isa. Who's telling the truth?? Ewan ko sa kanila. Cheska, as Patrick's older sister would always on Pat's back. Until now Patrick chose to keep mum from all of these talks.

Is she going to invite Jennylyn to her wedding?

No,” she replied in a snap. “Would you invite a person who stepped on your brother a million times? No! No! Why should I?” So that's it! Cheska had spoken! hahaha taray!

Manny Pacquiao Won by KO!

Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao has made boxing history again by knocking out "Dangerous" David Diaz in the 9th round of their last June 29. That made Manny Pacquiao the first Filipino ever to win in four boxing divisions. He now holds the WBC lightweight championship crown, but other that he also holds the crown for super bantamweight, junior lightweight, and super featherweight championships.


He was able to prove to everyone that he's the best pound-for-pound boxer in the world! Woohoo! Filipinos all over the world are Just so damn proud of him. That includes myself. The streets were empty that day, all were in front of their televisions watching The Pacman destroyed Diaz's poor face.

Manny was presistent in going after the Mexican early in the first round. And it seemed like Manny's gloves were made of magnets and Diaz's face was made of iron, because no matter how hard Diaz defended himself, Manny's punches always made it through. That's just how fast Manny delivers his punches.


The next three rounds definitely belonged to Pacquiao as his speed never wavered in giving Diaz more combinations of jabs and hooks. Quite noticeable was how Pacquiao now effectively used his right hand in dishing out punishment on Diaz's face and body. Round 5 was evident that the beating had taken its toll on Diaz as he involuntarily danced like a drunk.

Sa umpisa ng 8th round Manny fired up as he gave Diaz precise right-left-right punches that sent Diaz sagging and dazed! Manny's five-punch combinations would have sent Diaz to sleep but luckily the bell saved him. I wondered how Diaz felt when the bell signaled for round 9. His face was now bloody, he tried to go for offense, but Manny was already after him, giving Diaz a three-punch combination to the head. And then BOOm! Well not yet though, Diaz's left eye began to blacken and close up quickly because of Pacman's solid left. Pacman dished out final jabs, then quickly, a right-left punch that finally sent the ex-champion down face first.

The referee then waved the fight off at 2:24 in the 9th. It's over. The Pacman wins by KO!
