Gawad Urian 2008 Winners

Gawad Urian 2008: Jason Abalos, Sid Lucero, Cherry Pie Picache, and Emilio Garcia show off the trophies that they received during the 31st Gawad Urian Awards last night, October 1, at the CCP.

Emilio Garcia: "Oo, siyempre, bata ka pa lang, nakikita mo na palaging ang mga batikang aktor, winner ng Urian. So, lahat naman siguro. So, ako, wala na...I'm complete! Kumpleto na ang buhay ko. Okey na ‘ko," says Emilio Garcia about his recent win as Best Supporting Actor for the movie Selda.

Jason Abalos: "'Eto na, ‘eto na ang panaginip ko, nagkatotoo na! Siyempre, natuwa ako noong pangalan ko ang natawag. Siyempre, kumbaga sa school, ito yung medal ng pagiging artista!" beams Jason Abalos after winning the best-actor trophy in last night's Urian Awards for his performance in Endo.

Rhian Ramos: "Masaya ako sa career ko, siguro sa bilis na rin ng takbo ng mga pangyayari. Yung first project ko pa lang, Captain Barbell na. After Barbell, hindi na ako nag-audition sa Lupin, kasi nakita na rin nila yung chemistry namin ni Chard [Richard Gutierrez]. Nung ibinigay yun sa akin, natuwa ako kasi yung naging dating para sa akin, ibig sabihin, nag-i-improve ako sa pag-arte. 'Pag nakakuha ako ng bagong project, siguro sa last project ko, nakapag-improve ako ng konti," says debutante Rhian Ramos.

Alex de Rossi: When asked about her decision to transfer from GMA-7 to ABS-CBN, Alessandra de Rossi replied, "Okay lang naman kasi parang trabaho ang gusto ko, e. Nandito ako, puro trabaho 'yong meron ako. Aarte ka pa ba? Siyempre hindi na."

Piolo Pascual Bench Scandal

Piolo Pascual on his absence from the Bench Blackout 2008 Fashion Show: "Hindi talaga ako kasali sa Bench fashion show. Bago man ito naplano, wala talaga ako sa show. Also that day [July 25], I was doing a commercial shoot. So there is no chance for me to do the show."

Katrina Halili will star in Robin Padilla's next movie for GMA Films, Sundo.

KC Concepcion on Bianca Gonzalez, her ex-boyfriend's ex: "Oo naman. Nagkita na kami ni Bianca and okey naman siya, sobrang bait. No issue, sobrang okey sa akin si Bianca."

Lea Salonga of Cinderella, the hit show currently playing in Manila, said in an interview that one of the hardest places to perform in is in your own country because of the high expectations set on her by her own countrymen. Lea seemed to have met all the expectations based on the applause and standing ovation given to her by the audience last night.

Cherry Pie Picache wins as Best Actress for the second time in the 29th edition of the Durban International Film Fest in South Africa for her role as Thelma in Foster Child. Last year, she won as a lesbian tricycle driver in Kaleldo. Joining the actress in this photo is her ward John-John (Kier Segundo).

Jake Cuenca on John Prats & Shaina Magdayao: "Siyempre, si John Prats, John Prats yun. At saka, wala naman po sa pagkatao ko ang mang-agaw. Ako po kasi, basta may boyfriend or alam kong may karelasyon ang isang babae, off-limits po akong talaga."
