I Kissed a Boy (and I Liked It!)

September 15th, 2008

Many of you may already be familiar with Katy Perry’s “I Kissed a Girl” song.  Some of you may have liked it, some of you despised it.

But what if a male version was released? Well, what do you know, I found one!  I didn’t really find it, but the one who made it sent me a birthday message via my Multiply page!  I got the link from Robi (thanks for the greetings, dude, pare chong!) whom I had the chance to work with and hang-out with during shows and concerts sometime in 2003 to 2004.  I used to see him and the AKAFellas when I was still working as Road Manager of Nyoy Volante and Mannos (I had the biggest crush on their former member Red Sandico).

Anyway, Robi created “I Kissed A Boy” for the newly reinvented 99.5 RT as the first of many parodies that they will be making for the station. The song is a spoof of Katy Perry’s “I Kissed A Girl”.

I find the song extremely funny and made me roll on the floor after listening to it for the first time. It may be offensive for some people, but given that this is a parody, we should all take it as it is.
Listen to the song here: I Kissed A Boy: 99.5 RT Original (NOT FOR CHILDREN UNDER 30!)

Bakla Goes to the Eraserheads Reunion Concert

September 4th, 2008

Thanks to Red Horse Beer, I was able to watch the much-awaited reunion concert of the Eraserheads!

The concert may have been cut short (because Ely Buendia was rushed to the hospital during the 20-minute break), but I still enjoyed it.  It was so much fun to watch the boys who sang theme songs to my erstwhile love lives (as if there were any), theme songs which gave me hope, and theme songs which opened up my eyes to the realities of this world. » Read more: Bakla Goes to the Eraserheads Reunion Concert

Gay Filipinos and the 2008 Gay Pride

July 1st, 2008
Pride parade as part of the 2005 GayFest in Bucharest, Romania

The weekend that has just passed was a big event for many gays, lesbians, bisexuals and transgenders as the whole world commemorated the anniversary of the Stonewall Riots in New York City on June 28 1969.

Here in the Philippines, Gay Pride Parties were organized in Malate and Makati (some said that street parties and festivities were not allowed in the city of Manila).

Pride festivities were also held at the University of the Philippines in Diliman on June 27.  That was followed by an LGBT Forum and a cultural night. Photos from the forum from our transgender friend Pau Fontanos here.

We all know that gay men, Filipino gay men to be more specific and nationalistic, are very talented individuals — in whatever field they are and wherever they are.  Proof of that is our local gay pride festivities and the participation of our gay (and lesbian, bisexual, transgender) friends who are far away from the Philippines. We give kudos to these men and women for their courage, passion, and pride in bearing the Filipino gay flag all over the world!

Danton Remoto also has some nice words and a few stories to share about Pink Power here.

In Toronto, Canada, Filipino members of the gay community represented the country in colorful and beautiful ternos.  Check out the photos at Adobo Republic!

In the United States, the Filipino contingent wowed audiences with their exceptional performance during the march in Chicago, Illinois.  It was the first time in the history of Chicago’s Gay Pride Festivities that there was a separate Filipino contingent. The Filipino contingent made their first mark a glamorous one in the 39-year history of Chicago’s Gay Pride by winning the Best Organization Float award! (Read more about it and view photos on Ted Regencia Reports).

Curious as to what the gay Pinoys did during the festivities? Watch this video by Ted Regencia:

An opera based on Annie Proulx’s short story about two men and their 20-year long love story, Brokeback Mountain, will have its Opera version soon, courtesy of the New York City Opera. The movie of the same name won three Oscar awards in 2005.

Sa Pagdapo ng Mariposa

May 20th, 2008

The long wait is over, dadapo na ang Mariposa!

SA PAGDAPO NG MARIPOSA MOVIE POSTER

Sa Pagdapo ng Mariposa is yet another gay-themed film that will start its run at Robinsons IndieSine tomorrow, May 21. This indie film, produced by Hubo Productions, Inc.1 was originally scheduled to be shown on the week of April but was moved to this week because the producers and the director wanted to make sure that the film was free from minor technical dirt.

SA PAGDAPO NG MARIPOSA MOVIE POSTER 1

Sa Pagdapo ng Mariposa stars Marcus Madrigal and Josh Deocareza. The film has been in the limelight recently because its poster (shown above) was rated “X”. The film is about a man’s struggle of finding himself and discovering love, and his inability and lack of knowledge on how to deal with it. The film is admittedly gay-themed but it is not your typical gay film.

Centered on two main characters, » Read more: Sa Pagdapo ng Mariposa
