Now in her 50s, Pokwang’s second daughter, Malia, with her American partner, Lee O’ Brien, is turning three years old.
Meaning, she was 47 when she gave birth to her.
Kaya namin ito nabanggit ay dahil, at 42, singer-actress Jessa Zaragoza wants to get pregnant again. But high risk na raw siya.
Hers and husband, Dingdong Avanzado’s daughter, singer Jayda Avanzado, is 17 years old.
Jayda is their only child.
Before Malia, Pokwang had daughter Ria Mae (father is a Japanese), now 24 and a professional chef.
Still both active sa showbiz, Pokwang has a regular show sa TV5.
Once a week, napapanood si Jessa sa comedy program na Pepito Manaloto, topbilled, too, by Michael V. at Manilyn Reynes.
In her time, bilang singer, Jessa was dubbed as the Phenomenal Diva.
Angelica, sa pelikula na lang mapapanood
Ang desisyon daw ni Angelica Panganiban to no longer do a series, after Walang Hanggang Paalam, doesn’t mean she is quitting showbiz altogether.
Mapapanood pa rin daw siya ng kanyang followers, only this time sa pelikula. At mayroon na raw pelikulang naka-line up sa kanya.
Sabay muttered: “Thank God.”
Napanood last March, on digital nga lang, ang pelikula nila ni Coco Martin, Love or Money, directed by Mae Czarina Cruz, and produced by Star Cinema.
It was a thrilling movie at magaganda ang reviews tungkol dito.
She would not mind doing a movie again – soon, if may tamang project – with Coco.
Barbie, pinagdasal si Heaven
‘Namatay’ na ang character na ginagampanan ni Barbie Imperial sa drama romance series, Bagong Umaga.
Directed by Carlo Po Artillaga at Paco Sta. Maria, the series, which is broadcast by Kapamilya Channel at A2Z, co-starred Barbie with Heaven Peralejo, Tony Labrusca, Kiko Estrada at Michelle Vito.
In a talk we had with Barbie, binanggit niyang may dalawang movies daw siyang gagawin.
May mga kaukulang titulo na raw ito at kung sinu-sino pa ang other stars. But she’d rather daw na ang mga kinauukulan ang magbalita tungkol dito.
Of Heaven (Peralejo), Barbie said, nalaman daw nga niya na nagka-COVID ito. At sobrang nahirapan.
At hindi raw nga niya ito nadalaw – for obvious reason, ‘di ba naman, ipinagdarasal na lamang daw niya na makaraos ito.
Likas na madasalin si Barbie, which is typical of every Bicolana.
Barbie was born and grew up in Daraga, Albay.
It was after her stint as a Pinoy Big Brother housemate, nabigyan siya ng pagkakataong maging artista.
