I’m not sure how long we’ll going to talk about the Final question threw to Ms. Philippines, Venus Raj that allegedly, according to those who doesn’t really know about beauty contest for that matter, lost the chance of winning because of a lame question with a lame answer.

Being an OFW, I must say, is really a constructive and detrimental experience. We have countless reasons that encouraged us to leave our own country, but the only one thing we hold on is that one day we will come back to the Philippines and spend the rest of our lives with our family.

Jovit Baldivino, a true example of ‘you’ll never know to whom luck will strike’. Few months ago, Jovit was my kababayan in Batangas, who dreamed to be with his idol, Arnel Pineda while selling siomai to support himself and his family. After the audition on ‘Pilipinas Got Talent’, we’ve been already mesmerized by his charmed voice that the only one wish we had for him is to him — and nothing else. Now, he already released an album and his first music video. What a lucky young man!!!

Jabbawockeez, before it became known as MTV’s first Best Dance Crew, which is mostly formed by talented Fil-Am, it started the group to be visually seen and applauded at America’s God Talent. But unfortunately fortunate, after not getting into the semi-finals of the said reality show – they proved their indubitably creative dancing skills on MTV’s Best Dance Crew which was produced by Randy Jackson.

Another Pinoy Pride is marking the crowd on the ongoing America’s Got Talent.
Nine-year-old Bailey Munoz, a.k.a. “Bailrok,” and his 5-year-old partner, Miles “Baby Boogaloo” Brown formed a dance team they call Future FunK. They are awesomely cute kids.

Charice’s performance of ‘I will Survive’ was remarkable and unforgettable — for both Filipinos and Koreans who witnessed that few years ago. I can see the admiration from Super Junior’s faces! God, they are cute!

We all waited for this event to happen - that all of the best performers will come together for the same aim to win the First Showtime Grand Champion. We, here in Singapore, do our necessary chores earlier than usual. We prepared our lunch to be as exciting and nerve-racking while watching the eleven Finalists to win 1 million pesos.

Perhaps we’re quite saturated by now with all the commentaries of various sports-casters around, on LeBron choosing to join Miami Heat with Chris Bosh and Dwayne Wade. But, apart from those criticisms, there’s one that makes Filipinos excited about it, regardless if a Heat fan or not.

My initial reaction – “Finally”! Well, admit it or not, Charice is inevitably talented but she’s not a radio personality – she’s a well-rounded international artist. Let’s face it honey – since day one she was seen on big TV at Little Big Star, she has been misjudged as lacking personality and star quality. But her astounding big voice made the judges to be as stupid as they can be today.

Today is one of the most important days in Philippine History. This is the day of the inauguration of the 15th President of Republic of the Philippines. I must say that this is not different with the other fourteen former presidents who took an oath in front of our countrymen. But, this might be different because I extremely believe that each one of us is holding one hope and conviction that President Noynoy will bring back the trust that had been lost, the nationalistic pride that had been wrecked and the good governance that had been taken away from us for so long. We are hoping that there’ll be no any ‘people power’ that will be assembled just to hear our voices.

Finally, it's now confirmed that Charice, the proud Filipina/YouTube Sensation will join the cast of Glee on the next season. It started as a rumor, then confirmed by Charice’s manager that it’s not true that she’s joining Glee. But now, Charice has officially signed to join the cast of Glee. She joins John Stamos in the list of new celebs joining the cast next season. I smell bloody rivalry between our Charice and Rachel (Lea Michele).

Despite all the controversies about the 'Pilipinas Got Talent' Grand Winner Jovit Baldivino, we are still amazed every time he open his mouth and sing any famous rock-ballad songs. We are also wondering if Jovit will follow the footsteps of Journey's lead singer, Arnel Pineda - will he be successful or be conquered by his own fame?

There are few musicals that have been registered to our concessions; Chicago, Moulin Rouge or The Producers. I’m wondering if musicals per se originated from India. As we all know, Bollywood is famous for the groovy accompaniment of the movie and the famous Indian moves, as well.

Philippines’ pride, a favorite fast-food chain, Jollibee is currently the talk of the town for its short appearance on American musical television show "Glee." The almost 2-minute fame will really make a difference on Jollibee’s sale, I bet. With 120,000 Filipino-Americans in city of LA alone, I don’t think Jollibee won’t be profitable to be launched overseas. (more…)

Recently, Charice and Justin Bieber were seen in The Oprah Winfrey Show that featured Search for The Most Talented Kids. They didn’t have any duets on the show – which I was on tenterhooks to see them perform together.
But wait ----- there’s more! Haha! (I literally sound like a TV-ad with 1-800 contact details).
When I first heard Justin Bieber’s latest single, “Baby,” I really thought that it was sung by another teenager girl-wannabe. But, whatta – it’s Justin Bieber. It was the same conjecture I had when I heard “One Time” and “One Less Lonely Girl.”
Charice posted on her YouTube account a video of her singing Justin Bieber’s “Baby”. Hmmmp! Who do you think did it best?
