ChaCha Cañete And Camella Homes
This video was aired last April and since then the girl (which I thought was a boy)Chacha Cañete, are doing wonders(a hit a day actually) on my other blog. They say she will be the next child wonder of Philippine TV. I have to agree as she really is a good actress and not to mention adorable too. And with the success of her Bulilit Camella Homes “SIKIP” ad, she got another ad specially for this season..
She’s a good endorser, don’t you think? Manny Villar is lucky to have her.
Anne Curtis (It’s Show Time Magpasikat)
You know by now how much we all enjoy this morning show It’s Show Time. A show were Filipino shows their talents. As the tag line of the show says, it’s your show, it’s your time, IT’S SHOW TIME! Aside from talented Filipinos performing everyday, the show hosts are also tasked to show their talents, (and now they also encourage other artist to go to their show and showcase their talents) and this portion is called MAGPASIKAT. Last December 16, it was Anne Curtis turn to shine. Watch how Anne Curtis MAGPASIKAT and make every judges give her a perfect score.
Nice eh? OK, you know this is a review site, so we will review her performance. Honestly, this is the first time that I hear Anne Curtis sing. She is not a singer obviously but she is a GOOD ACTRESS as her facial expression made her performance a good one. Indeed she showcased her talent here, and not just that she also showed how confident she is. I really enjoyed watching it.
Actor In Paris & Everywhere
Since I can’ think of anything to review today, I thought of reviewing a local actor. Timely, because the actor I am about o review has a local series that is about to end this week. Piolo Pascual of Lovers in Paris. If being a fan means you like the way he act, then I am a fan of this actor. I first noticed him in Lobo. A fantasy series where he portrays the leading actor opposite to Angel Locsin as the leading actress. I like Angel Locsin but never the way she acts. In Lobo, Piolo was able to take out an actress from Angel, she was even nominated fro some international awards for that. That’s when I realized how good Piolo as an actor is. He can make his leading lady act. He can make them feel the real character they are portraying. How can I give that credit to him and not that actress? Oh well, obviously, in every scenes they perform, he take full control of his character and you cannot even tell who is Piolo Pascual. His leading lady has no choice but to level up to his performance. I know you will agree, even in Lovers in Paris, his leading lady, KC Concepcion improved a lot in terms of acting.
Piolo Pascual started his acting career in 1993 (brief appearance in the movie The Vizconde Massacre as Jussi Leino). He was also one of the supporting cast in Batang PX. His debut as an actor and his first break was in the movie Lagarista in 2000. He was nominated as best actor in Gawad Urian and he won the title. His movie was also exhibited in international film festivals. Three years after and he again received an award, but this time not just one but 8 awards for his portrayal of Jules Bartolome in the movie Dekada ’70. This film was also exhibited in international film festivals together with his other movies, Milan. His latest movie, Manila,brought him to Cannes festival and a lot more international film festival.
Other than those films, he also starred on romantic films that made Filipinos smile and fall in love again. Some of those movies were, Dreamboy where he played three characters. Another one is Love Me Again where he plays Migo opposite to Arah played by Angel Locsin. This was their movie after the success of their series Lobo.
Aside from being an actor, he is also a producer. He is actually on of the producer of the movie, Manila He also o produce the comedy film, Kimmy Dora (Kambal sa Kyeme).
His filmography speaks for itself. And just like what I always say, he can make every one feel beautiful with the way he look (when he acts), even if he would be given the ugliest leading lady, he can make the viewers believe he is very in love with that girl. Why don’t you try and see one of his movies and tell me what you think about him. Or try watching Lovers In Paris final week.
It’s SHOWTIME!!!
Showtime is a variety show in the form of competition, bringing the best and the worst of Pinoys with ambition to entertain or simply to be seen on TV. It’s all about Pinoys’ dream and their love for fun and entertainment.(source)
It’s been a week since I started watching this show and I am highly entertained by it. The contestants performs and right after that judges say their piece. The most entertaining part for me is when the judges bicker at each other. In this show, even the judges are not spared from being judged. Every week there is one or two judges that are evicted on the show (based on text voting from the viewers). There is one judge though that is excused from it.
This show can be seen Monday to Friday at our local channel (ABS CBN) right before Wowowee starts.. yes, I am a TV buff now.. ever since gave birth to my pretty baby, my hobby now is breastfeeding while watching TV.
