The Next Arnel Pineda on Pilipinas Got Talent - Jovit Baldivino

Listen to this, you'd think the voice didn't come from him. Like he's lip syncing the whole thing. He's absolutely brilliant



It looks like ABS-CBN just found the next Arnel Pineda in a 16-year old siomai vendor from Manila who sells his wares after-school hours

Judy Ann Santos Pregnant and Expecting. Quitting Showbiz?

Famous soap opera princess Judy Ann Santos is two months pregnant with her first child to husband Ryan Agoncillo.

They tied the knot in Batangas April 2009, quite secretly with a lot of fans disappointed at their lack of tact and sharing disposition so they had to redo the whole wedding shindig for the benefit of the public

It has been rumored that she will slow down her busy schedule being in one of the hottest prime time soap opera Kapamilya's hit television series "Habang May Buhay," co-starring the delicious Derek Ramsey while hubby Ryan Agoncillo is hosting a talent search show for TV5.

To be fair to Judy Ann, she has lost a lot of weight. I've been seeing her in a lot of commercials too so life must be good. Congrats on the new kid. I don't think she won't lose that much by quitting ahead of her game. She'll probably get back to it after she spits out the kid anyway

Mansion of Manny Villar? Corruption Scandal Online

I received this from my email just last week. The pictures below are allegedly the images of Manny Villar's residence in the US, although a friend did mention they are the same pictures of Robert Mugabe's residence (President of Zimbabwe also accused of graft and corruption)

Rich living area

Huge swimming pool

Grand dining area


Even the bathroom is lavish

With a bedroom even bigger than our whole apartment


This mansion is said to be in Salt Lake City, Utah, USA. I'm pretty sure the mansion is real but if it belongs to Manny Villar or Robert Mugabe, nobody can really know. What I know is that Manny Villar promotes himself as one who intends to end poverty in the nation and these images are considered proof versus his lavish lifestyle that contradicts his political platform.

Manny Pacquiao's Middle Age Crisis

Manny "pacman" Pacquiao is undergoing middle age crisis. Why do I say so? Well the boxer is the best in the Philippines. He has millions upon millions of dollars in winnings and endorsement fees. Manny Pacquiao is a seven division champion for crying out loud! He's the only person in the world who has ever done that!

And yet instead of quitting while he's ahead, instead of keeping his name clean, credible and on everyone's good side -- he goes into politics, he goes into showbiz and he continues to make risky decisions in terms of his next boxing matches.

Although I do tend to be on the safe side, and I also believe that Manny's greatness is in his guts and capacity to take risks (aside from the talent & skill he already possesses)

Recent news about his leg injury (which has been there longer than everyone thinks by the way), is making waves and potentially trying to even the odds on his next fight (gambling reasons most likely)

Manny has been rumored to be in affairs with a number of sexy stars in the Philippines (Ara Mina before and now Krista Ranillo). If that isn't a sign of trouble, I don't know what is. The poor (rich) wife, Jinkee Pacquiao who picked him up when we was a nobody is now suffering from all the ghastly news. I wouldn't mind though as long as all the money still ended up with me

Even Manny's mother - Aling Dionisia is making waves in Philippine showbiz. Manny is slowly shifting his attention to the limelight of Hollywood with multiple guestings in many shows like Jimmy Kimmel and even a concert of his own. The identity crisis is daunting.

Good idea though moving from boxing to showbiz given he has probably had enough punches thrown at him. Here's hoping the fame doesn't wear off before he retires

Here's his clip from Jimmy Kimmel



Watch out for Manny's next fight with Ghanaian Clottey on March 13

Angelica Panganiban and Derek Ramsey Break Up

Recently released in a local daily in Cebu the break-up of high profile (and delicious couple) Derek Ramsey and Angelica Panganiban - sorry Angelica I meant Derek is delicious (no offense). After a 3-year relationship, I think they've come very far. Derek is now everywhere - and is often half naked in billboards and advertisements, even with his local soap opera - Habang May Buhay, while Angelica is on her way to her new soap opera Rubi in ABS-CBN

According to local news, Angelica is reportedly the jealous type which led to their separation. Although I did hear over the grape vine that Derek isn't exactly big on fidelity either with some girls on the side

This has apparently been confirmed by local site PEP (Philippine Entertainment Portal) but that they also got back together again (loser!) just last March 2
