The full trailer of the upcoming film “In My Life” starring Vilma Santos-Recto, Luis Manzano and John Lloyd Cruz was launched on ABS-CBN and its affiliate stations. And boy was I amazed and amused.
This is something that I’m definitely looking forward to watching. Aside from the kissing scene that Luis and John Lloyd did in the film, the story and Ate Vi’s acting seem to draw me into this film.
So here’s the full trailer.
“In My Life” is showing in Philippine theaters on September 16, 2009.
A Filipino "porn star" from Canada is at risk of getting deported back to the Philippines. Jammy Reyes, a 24-year old prostitute moved to Canada with his aunt and sister when he was just 11 years old has never applied to become a Canadian citizen, making his stay in the country illegal.
Reyes is quite a famous entity in the popular adult video-sharing website Xtube. As of this writing, Reyes, whose username on the site is badboijer, has 1,724 subscribers and 510,600 video views. His life story is all about drugs, crime and life on the streets.
At 16, he left his family home, dropped out of high school and became a prostitute. Then the drugs came in: ecstasy, crack cocaine and crystal meth. In order to feed his addiction, he started stealing credit cards from clients and threatening his aunt – who eventually put a restraining order against him. Reyes spent more than a year in jail and six months in rehab.
He is almost finished with his two-year probation. Interestingly, his life is also currently being featured, alongside 99 other male prostitutes from three different countries, in a Winnipeg art exhibit called 100 Stories About My Grandmother. The show is all about male prostitutes telling stories about their grandmothers – to show that people who work in the sex trade are just like everyone else. They, too, have families and lives beyond selling their meat.
The deportation sentence for Reyes will be released anytime soon and if he is indeed found unworthy of staying in Canada, he will be escorted back to the Philippines – a country he has not seen for years and a country he no longer considers home – within a week.

“I just loathe homophobia. It’s just disgusting and animal and stupid and it’s just thick people who can’t get their heads around it and are just scared… I grew up around gay people entirely… .”
These words came from the mouth of Harry Potter actor Daniel Radcliffe in the latest issue of Attitude Magazine.Â

Masarap, malutong Ding Dong, Ding Dong!
No I did not do any hanky panky with Dingdong Dantes. He’s so not my type. Well, he was during the TGIS days, but not anymore. Now that he has already had his nipples (allegedly) surgically altered.
Anyway, Universal Records has recently released this new “Audio/Visual Project†starring Dingdong Dantes.
So what’s in it? According to the Universal Records Press Release:
The ‘VISUAL’ side includes MINI-COFFEE TABLE BOOK/SCRAPBOOK containing exclusive Dingdong Dantes images and a DVD featuring 4 Dingdong Dantes music videos shot by topnotch music video & commercial directors exclusively for this project. Directors like Louie Ignacio (”Cucu (Oh Yeah)” music video), Rico Gutierrez & Shoti Benares (”I Know You Want Me (Calle Ocho)” music video), Adrian Calumpang (”Shining Star” music video) and Treb Monteros (”Tender Love” music video), worked closely with Dingdong Dantes in conceptualizing the look and feel of each music video. These videos are, after all, Dingdong’s babies. The beautifully photographed Mini-Coffee Table Book/ Scapbook showcases the serious, the playful and the sexy sides of Dingdong. These EXCLUSIVE photos are only available in this book and has never been published elsewhere. Also included are some behind the scenes pictures taken during his music video shoots.
The ‘AUDIO’ side is actually a CD containing 6 international hits personally selected by Dingdong Dantes. Songs range from r&b/hip hop tracks to club hits and even a tender ballad. Songs like the #1 Billboard smash “I Know You Want Me (Calle Ocho)” by Pitbull, club favourite “Shining Star” by Get Far, “Tender Love” by Jordan Knight and the infectious Latin-flavoured carrier track “Cucu (Oh Yeah)” by Miguel Fernadez, will give each buyer a different audio sensation once they hear it!
Some of you may want to buy this and experience Dingdong Dantes. I wonder what the “playful and sexy sides of Dingdong†means but I’m pretty sure Dingdong fans out there would love to grab a copy of this. Does it contain hot photos of Dingdong Dantes naked and being playful? I doubt it. One thing is for sure though, there are no video scandals or anything of teh sort featuring Dingdong Dantes.
So queber ko if he was one of the 25 Sexiest Men of the World? Kebs talaga, everchynna hortaleza beauty products – naghahasa din!
If you buy this, I won’t take it against you. Besides, to each his own naman.
Extra: Did you know that the word “dingdong†is slang for penis? So let’s see how big Dingdong’s dingdong is!
Ah! Papa Piolo. Who doesn’t love him? Some of his billboards along EDSA have been taken down recently, and I think it is for good reason. People just get distracted too much! (I also get distracted by that Folded & Hung billboard with British Pinoy model Justin Hills).
But have you seen the latest oh-so-hot TV commercials for Bench starring Papa P?
Check out the videos below where Piolo is decently naked. And no, these are not sex scandals!
And don’t forget! MANILA, a film produced and starred in by Papa Piolo Pascual, will be showing in select theaters nationwide! The list of cinemas showing Manila below:

If you’ve already seen the latest installment of the movie adaptation of JK Rowling’s Harry Potter Series, then I’m pretty sure you noticed that hot young man playing Cormac McLaggen. While the character is a little forgettable in the books, the actor playing him in Harry Potter 6: The Half-Blood Prince isn’t. At least for me.
Immediately after watching the film on iMax (SM North Edsa) with blogger and Plurk friends, I Googled Cormac McLaggen and found out that the oh-so hot actor playing the character is Freddie Stroma.
Freddie Stroma is a 21-year old British actor. This is where I stop telling you more about him. Google had me at British. (If you want to know more about this hot man, go to the Freddie Stoma Online fansite).

You know what happens when a relatively unknown gets cast in such a high profile movie as Harry Potter? All his or previous works – be it modeling, TV appearances, film cameos, theater performances, etc. – are dug up and posted online. And lucky for me (or for us all), there are HOT HOT HOT footages and photos of Freddie Stroma!
Acne Underwear has this footage of a guy who allegedly is Freddie Stroma (but he denies it is him) and how good he is at gymnastic rings. See how flexible he is! But wait there’s more! There’s something at the end of the video for us! 
Is this guy really Freddie Stroma naked?
Here’s another video from Acne Underwear with Freddie dancing in various shapes, sizes and colors of underwear! And this video IS really Freddie Stroma! Hot hot hot! Dance with me? Charot!
Oh dear. I think I have a new British crush. Then again, I’m on the Ed Westwick fans club. lol

Sometime around March of this year, I chanced upon my friend Gibbs Cadiz’s blog entry about a musical called The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee. I really wanted to watch the show but my busy schedule made me miss it. Then I forgot about it.
I only remembered it about two or three weeks ago when the Scripps National Spelling Bee Finals aired on ESPN. I’m not really an adept speller but when I was younger, I’ve always wanted to participate in one. I can recall my younger self browsing through dictionaries and encyclopedias searching for difficult words to memorize and familiarize myself with. One of them was triskaidekaphobia – the fear of the number 13. I now forget the language of origin and alternative pronunciations. Oh, those were my good old days.
The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee is a one act musical comedy with music and lyrics by William Finn and a book by Rachel Sheinkin. The show centers around a fictional spelling bee set in a geographically ambiguous Putnam Valley Middle School (however, Putnam County, NY does have a village called Putnam Valley). Six quirky adolescents compete in the Bee, run by three equally-quirky grown-ups.

After watching the Scripps National Finals, I felt bad because I missed The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee. An hour or so later, I shook it off and went on with my life.
Until last week when I received a text message from
