On Watching It Live


Congratulations to Papa-look-alike Bayani "BF" Fernando for winning the second installment of Celebrity Duets. Since I was in Urdaneta for an event, Mama, Cui and his girlfriend Mimi trooped to Studio 3 of GMA 7 for the taping of the final show.

Glad to hear that they had an awesome time. Ms Gigi Santiago-Lara, my former Client from GMA 7 reserved 3 seats for me. She is such a darling! Love you, Ms Gi! According to Cui, Ogie tried entertaining the audience while they were waiting to shoot some scenes. He asked Regine to sing, then he translated every line to Batanggeno.

Too bad I wasn't able to make it to witness all the action. Nevertheless, Mama had a blast so okay na okay na rin.

Congratulations to BF and to GMA 7. I think this was a more exciting edition and the talents were really good. Until Season 3!

ON MY BESPWEN'S BIRTHDAY!

She is truly my one and only
With a helluva strong personality
She is gorgeous even when placed under pressure
No boulder can destroy her, that's for damn sure!

On her very special day
This simple poem is my way
To tell her how much I love and appreciate her
and how I would fight for her forever and ever.

Love you, my bespwen! Enjoy your day tomorrow!!!

On Another One Of My Favorite Shows

Will it be JC, Bayani or Tsong Joey? Find out next week!!!

Mama, Papa and I are big fans of this show. Especially since everybody knows that my father looks like Bayani Fernando. You don't even need to guess who we are cheering for. But c'mon. BF is all out talaga in his performances. I extremely enjoyed his duet with Pilita.

Joey has a really good voice. First performance pa lang niya, I was really impressed na. So if he wins, okay din lang. Maiiyak lang ang tatay ko.

Si JC? Hay naku, mayaman lang ang mga clients niya kaya pa siya nandiyan. He probably got GMA and Cory Aquino's whole household to vote for him every minute of the day. And ang mga ka-duet... Yasmien Kurdi, Lovie Poe?! What the hell?!

Sana si Carlene na lang than him. But sabi nga ng Mama ko, siya na ang 'poorest' sa natira, meaning, her resources are the pinaka-mahina.

So let's see who wins! Haaayyy, two big finales this week! So exciting!

On Getting Myself Inked

I am planning to get this tattooed on my left leg (just above my ankle). K.A. just got two new tattoos and now, more than ever, I am super determined to get one myself. I'll keep you posted if I do decide to take the plunge. For now, this YEAR OF THE RAM sign will remain but a jpeg file on my desktop.

On My New Fashion Find

I really take good care of my nails. And I have been going regularly to Princess Carol in BF Homes for my mani and pedi. A couple of weeks ago, I had them put on this dark shade of blue from Face Shop. And even after a week, my nails still looked super fine. The paint didn't chip off easily.

Yesterday, I had my Princess Carol ladies use this red shade naman that you see on the photo. It looks chic on me, I swear! And the paint dries up really fast so I cut down on my waiting time. I love, love, love FACE SHOP nail paint so I bought four (4) this afternoon at Powerplant.

Got the blue (the first one they put on me at Princess Carol), the red I'm wearing now, this brownish-reddish color and purple! Yipee!

So ladies, troop on over to Face Shop and get your hands on some of the bottles too!

On My Super Favorite Pinoy Reality Series

My hats off to the creators of Project Runway Philippines. I got really hooked to this show! 10 - 11PM every Wednesday turned out to be a sacred hour, as I watched our local designers strut their stuff down the runway.

I completely agree with most of the reviews. Teresa is such a fresh face and most certainly the biggest asset of the show. Jojie's "Work, work, work" line is a funny spin to lovely Tim Gunn's "Make it Work". Getting Imelda Marcos on the show was super cool too! She is THE fashion icon and kudos to PRP for featuring her! Wish it were Imee though who judged the actual challenge. Met her and she is supah fab!

My bet was Jaz, although I voted for Philipp in ETC's Fan Fave promo (hahaha, I am that obsessed talaga!). Super sad ako when Jaz was voted out. Think Aries would win simply because he has been consistent and really innovative. His creations are nicely executed and well thought of. Plus, he won a lot of challenges. Philipp is a nice guy, but you know what they say... nice guys finish last. Si Veejay? Ang lousy mag-English ng lola pero best actress siya! Okay rin if manalo siya.

Overall, it was a terrific show. And I am sad that it's coming to a close next Wednesday. But I saw plugs already for a Season 2 so that's something to look forward to.

By the way, I saw Bo and Mara separately at Powerplant in Rockwell. When I saw Mara, her hair was already that from the Reunion Special. She is so laid back and rocker chic talaga. Wanted to have my picture taken with her pero Powerplant eh. Haha. If it were in Megamall, baka mas kina-reer ko. Saw Bo naman having coffee at Starbucks with some friends/clients. He was one of those na I didn't really like so wala lang. It was nice lang to see him in person.

I swear though, if nakita ko si Jaz or Philipp, pa-picture talaga ako! =)

Can't wait to see who bags the prize!
