Daiana Menezes Brazilian sensation

Daiana Menezes, the Brazilian singing sensation with what I think is the most beautiful smile on Earth, was honored with a mini-concert by Eat Bulaga yesterday with a grand medley of songs.

Dobol Trobol: Dolphy, Vic Sotto

Dolphy Quizon continues his reign as the Philippine King of Comedy as Dobol Trobol with Vic Sotto and Riza Santos opened this week with a bang.Many might not realize it, actually it seems hardly anybody does because our humble blog seems to be the only blog with this information on the internet that refers to it, hehe, but Dobol Trobol is a remake of one of Dolphy's big hit movies from 1960 of the same title, produced by Sampaguita Pictures.

Dennis Trillo, Katrina Halili, and Nadine Samonte will star in the upcoming primetime series Gagambino.

Precious Adona on Katrina Halili: "E, noong nag-taping kasi ako, wala namang ibang ginagawa si Katrina kung hindi matulog lang kung walang take. Understandable yun, kasi, marami rin siya raket. Kailangan niyang bumawi ng pahinga at magdamagan ang taping namin."

Iya Villania and Diana Zubiri will take over the role originally intended for Angelica Panganiban and Roxanne Guinoo in the movie One Night Only. Angelica and Roxanne were pulled out from the project by Star Magic.

Paolo Contis will be seen in TV5's horror show, Midnight DJ, for one one whole season after GMA-7 granted his manager Lolit Solis's, request to extend his stay on the said show. Paolo is part of the cast of GMA-7's Codename: Asero and will soon host World Records.

Dennis Trillo: "Natapos ko na ang Zaido, nakapag-shooting na rin ako ng I.T.A.L.Y. tapos na rin itong Magdusa Ka at nagkaanak na ako at magbi-birthday na nga siya, hindi pa rin naipalalabas [ang Kulam]. Naging problema po namin ay ang scheduling, dahil pareho kaming naging busy ni Judy Ann. At least po ngayon, magda-dubbing na lang kami, at maipalalabas na rin."

JC de Vera was pulled out from the movie "Sundo" as the love interest of Rhian Ramos. He will be replaced by Hero Angeles, who immediately accepted the offer.

Marian Rivera's Dolphy-Vic movie

Marian Rivera explains at last why she had to back out from Dolphy-Vic movie.

"Gusto ko lang ikorek yung sinasabi na tinanggihan ko yung project dahil sa talent fee. Never. Kahit wala akong bayad, tatanggapin ko ‘yan dahil malaki ang utang na loob ko kay Mr. Tuviera, tatay ko ‘yan. Kay Tita Malou na sobrang nag-build up sa akin. Sila yung unang-unang nagtiwala sa akin. Kaya kahit walang bayad tatanggapin ko ‘yan." PEP

Marian Rivera's manager about the young actress' decision to back out of the Dolphy-Vic Sotto movie: "Unfair at pangit kay Yan [palayaw ni Marian] ang akusasyon dahil tinanggap namin ang project nang hindi pinag-usapan ang talent fee. Tinanggap namin ‘yon dahil sa pagmamahal at utang na loob namin kina Mr. Tuviera at Vic." Noel Orsal

Vic Sotto and Rosanna Roces: "Awitin Mo, At Isasayaw Ko"

Classic Moments of Philippine Cinema:

sing "Awitin Mo" and do a sexy
hip-gyrating dance
This is a great video clip of one of my favorite moments of all time in the history of Filipino movies that just makes me and I'm sure will make you just so happy on the inside. Philippine cinema legends Rosanna Roces and Vic Sotto sing and dance to "Awitin Mo At Isasayaw Ko" (You sing it and I'll dance to it), a song Vic Sotto wrote with his friend J@ey de Leon during their days in the hit music band VST and Co.

Marian Rivera is Dyesebel
GMA has announced that Marian Rivera will be starring in the remake of Dyesebel, the mermaid, a role made famous by Vilma Santos in the early 70s. She is still unofficially attached to Rosalinda, but it's obvious they're putting off Rosalinda for a later release date (2009) so that the Thalia-novelas don't get repetitive and saturate the airwaves so soon after the recent success of Marimar. Although, for Filipino television, that is a new strategy since Filipino TV usually is and still is repetitive and if one thing becomes popular, everybody jumps on the bandwagon and soon the channels are bombarded with the same type of thing (fantasy-novelas, asianovelas, etc.), but that is a smart move.
