Sam itutuloy na ang panliligaw kay Catriona

Wow ang aming reaksyon kung totoo nga ang balak na ligawan ni Sam Milby ang current Miss Universe na si Catriona Gray.

Kung sabagay, open book naman ang naganap na break-up sa pagitan ni Catriona and her boyfriend of six years na si Clint Bondad, an aspiring TV host and actor, too.

Sam was last linked to ramp and commercial model, Mari Jasmine.

Sam is currently making his mark as an actor with his role as a semi-kontrabida in the top series, Halik.

The role, according to Sam, challenge him as it also allows him to showcase his talent with reliable performers, like Jericho Rosales and Cris Villanueva, among others.

Pops aligaga ang career sa pagiging producer

Kakaunti lang marahil ang nakakaalam na ang pinagkakaabalahan ngayon ni Pops Fernandez habang siya ay hindi lumalabas sa concerts at performances ay ang DSL Productions, ang production company ng kanyang nanay na si former actress Dulce Lukban na mismong nagmamay-ari nito at nag-managed.

Nakatulong ang nasabing kumpanya kay Pops sa kung nasaan man siya ngayon na tinatagurian pa ring Concert Queen.

DSL is still into producing concerts at featuring other artists na ginaganap dito sa Pilipinas at abroad. Pinaka-latest venture ng DSL ang mag-produce ng pelikula, with their first production na idi-direk ni Rechie del Carmen, na nakapag-direk na ng ilang teleserye.

May kasalukuyang nakalaan din na movie ang DSL para kay Martin Nievera, Pops’ ex-husband and father of her two sons, Robin and Ram.

In the past, Martin did a lot of movies with Pops as his leading lady, na ang producer ay Regal Films.

Samantala, kagagaling lang ni Pops sa Hollywood, California, kung saan nakasama niya ang mga prominent international celebrity, such as Drew Barrymore, RuPaul at Faith Hill. She acted as one of the 50 judges of new international reality competition, ang The World’s Best na produced by CBS, and James Corden as the host of the show.

And guess naman kung sino ang nakapasok at nanguna sa audition ng show?

Our very own TNT Boys na sina Keifer Sanchez, Mackie Empuerto and Francis Concepcion, that’s who.

All three are in their teens and they were all finalists of the 2017 It’s Showtime competition, Tawag ng Tanghalan.

Ina naka-first time sa international filmfest

Wow din para kay Ina Raymundo, Salve A., who shares honor with AiAi delas Alas in winning the best actress award sa katatapos lang na 39th Fantasporto International Film Festival na ginanap sa Porto, Portugal.

Ina won her award for the movie, Kuya Wes, na pinagbibidahan ni Ogie Alcasid. Nanalo naman si AiAi for her performance sa pelikula niyang School Service.

Pareho nang maituturing na veteran performers sina Ina at AiAi. Ganunpaman, first time manalo ng award for best actress from an international awards giving body si Ina pero si AiAi may mga nauna nang award sa ibang international film festival.

Congratulations to the both of them.

Tatay ni Liza first time napanood ang pakikipaghalikan ni Liza

Now for a showbiz happening: Showing pa rin in theaters nationwide ang Alone/Together nina Liza Soberano at Enrique Gil.

Did we hear it right that first time napanood ng father ni Liza, sharing lip service kay Enrique in a movie.

Wonder how Liza’s Dad reacted.

Pakikiramay…

Sad, sad news this week, Salve A., The death of Annie Brazil, singer Mom nina Rachelle Ann Wolf and also may sakit na si Richard Merck, and Mari Balbacui (real name: Mari Gonzales) sa nagsimula bilang entertainment writer at naging close sa mga kilalang artista, kabilang na si now Lipa City Congresswoman Vilma Santos-Recto.
