SINORPRESA ni Willie Revillame ang kaibigang si John Estrada sa taping ng Party On Five last Sunday night, dahil personal na umapir ang controversial host sa show.

Isa na kaya itong pahiwatig na talagang lilipat na si Willie sa Kapatid Network at tuluyan nang iiwan ang Wowowee at ABS-CBN?

Sobrang na-miss kaya ni Willie ang ingay at ningning ng showbiz, kahit pa sabihing may panahon na si-yang gawin ang mga bagay na hindi niya madalas magawa noon tulad ng paggo-golf at pag-travel sa kanyang yate, ay nakuha ni-yang puntahan at sorpresahin ang mga kaibigan at loyal supporters.

Bea denies conflict with Sarah

YOUNG actress Bea Alonzo dismissed any rift with Sarah Geronimo, citing she sees no problem with the singer-actress doing projects with her on-screen sweetheart John Lloyd Cruz.

“Hindi ko tinitingnan na ganun yung sa kanila, para sa akin mas nakakatulong sa akin at sa kanila yung love team,” she said in an interview.

Bea also said there will come a time in their showbiz career that they need to step-up and offer something different.

She believed that it’s a good sign of their flexibility, stressing they were able to do different roles with different actors.

Bea started her acting career in ABS-CBN's primetime series "Kay Tagal Kang Hinintay" wherein she starred opposite John Lloyd.

Aga’s charisma to other ladies flatters Charlene

FORMER beauty queen Charlene Gonzales is happy with the projects given to Aga Muhlach, saying she was flattered with the country's leading actresses orchestrating interest to do a project with her husband.

“It's so flattering to hear that they would like to do a movie with him. Syempre once I hear that natutuwa ako as his wife,” she said.

Aga is currently filming a movie with Angel Locsin while also shooting a sitcom with Ai-ai Delas Alas. He is set to do a movie with Regine Velasquez and Leah Salonga by the end of the year.

Charlene sees no problem on Aga being paired with younger women. She shared that her husband is very thrilled to be working with Angel because the storyline of the project is one of the best ever prepared by Star Cinema.

In a separate interview, Leah confirmed that she will do a movie with Aga in November and they are just working on the plot of the project.

"When we see each other laging kaming nag-uusap about the movie. Leah's husband is also excited about the team-up," Charlene said.

The former beauty queen meantime dismissed rumors that she is jealous with Aga's leading ladies, saying she is even more excited for her hubby to do a project because she is a big fan of him.

"Instead wasting my time in these negative things, we might as well make the situation better," she said.

‘Bossing’ around with rock stars

ROCK ’N’ ROLL PUT SPICE TO AN event that was cooked up to encourage business entrepreneurship.

If good business starts with an exciting idea, the guys who thought of tapping rock stars Rico Blanco and Arnel Pineda to usher in the launch of PLDT SME Nation’s “Bossing Ako” campaign Thursday night at the NBC Tent in Taguig hit the right note.

Blanco is actually an integral part of the blitz — having been commissioned to write and perform the “Bossing Ako” theme music for a video, with Pineda as co-singer, which likewise premiered that night.

The song itself sounded good, with driving rhythms and motivational lyrics that could move the innocent viewer to pick up the phone and do business with the telco giant.

The company is selling the idea that SMEs (small-to-medium scale entrepreneurs) will be more efficient and thus more profitable if they avail of PLDT’s Internet service and centralized phone lines.

If the message was about instantaneous “connectivity,” the musical performances at the event boosted it.

Playing with an excellent backup band (sparked by lead guitarist Mike Bon and 18-year-old drummer Ralph Ruiz), Blanco had the crowd in rapt attention. The music, consisting of Rivermaya and Blanco’s own material, pricked the senses. But even more powerful were the lyrics, some of which captured the essential element of successful endeavors: “Kung gusto, parating merong paraan.”

Pineda, on the other hand, relied on his old Zoo band mates and offered classic rock covers that turned the corporate event into a party. There was lively dancing on the front rows, the revelers composed of employees from Reyes Haircutters.

Earlier, the salon chain’s boss, Les Reyes, and 11 other top guns (including Regal Films’ Mother Lily and daughter Roselle Monteverde-Teo, North Park’s Raphael and Jenni Soon, Joey Pepperoni’s Joey Concepcion) joined PLDT’s Manny Pangilinan on stage and were introduced as the faces of the “Bossing Ako” campaign.

In a sense, the success attained by these models of good business has also transformed them into virtual rock stars.

Offstage, lots of food and drinks kept everybody happy.

"Sobrang idol namin sya lahat sa Mindoro, na tuwing may bagong pelikula, pinapanood talaga naming lahat. Kaya hindi ako makapaniwala na may ganito akong opportunity na makasama yung anak nya sa isang proyekto," Ejay said of Robin.
