Micamyx and Adaphobic on Tek Tok TV

6 Replies

Guesting on a TV show with one of your craziest blogger friend on a Saturday is fun! Yesterday, Ada Lajara of Adaphobic and I went to Global News Network’s studio for the advanced taping of Tek Tok TV. It is a tech show aired every Wednesday morning in Destiny Cable’s Global News Network. It is hosted by Vince Golangco of WhenInManila.com and of course, my ever sexy friend Hannah Villasis of FlairCandy.com.

Mica and Ada with Vince before the final take

Ada and I were quite excited when we received the invitation from Vince to finally guest on the show. Usually, the blogger feature part is concentrated on one blogger per show. I guess two is better than one especially if the two bloggers featured on the episode share a lot of things in common.  During the interview, we were able to share some of our personal insights about blogging, the benefits of being a blogger and gave random tips for the newbies. The fun part is when we were asked to narrate on how Ada and I became good friends and we were able to share some of our travel pictures (then I realized we’ve to a LOT of places already! 😛 )

My PBB Teen Clash of 2010 Big Winner is Ivan Dorschner

2 Replies

Pinoy Big Brother fanatics all over the world are excited for the upcoming big night of the PBB Teen Clash of 2010. As a fan of Pinoy Big Brother since it started, I can say that for the teen edition, the viewers are not only searching for a certain role model for the youth. They’re also looking for someone whom they wish to see on the teleseryes and movies soon. Take for example its past winners like Kim Chiu and Ejay Falcon.

Ivan Dorsner

As someone who works for a magbloid, I am tasked to sort out pictures sent to us by in-house and contributing photographers. I remember that during the grand launch of PBB Teen Clash of 2010, the one and only housemate that really caught my attention is Ivan Dorschner (Ivan Dorsner). I was able to catch the video of Ivan’s entrance in the PBB house and my, he does remind me of my celebrity crush Cogie Domingo during his younger days. I hope someone agrees with me on that claim LOL.

Ang Pagbabago sa TV5: Para Sa’yo, KAPATID!

7 Replies

Kanina ko pa sinusubukang gumawa ng napakagandang artikulo rito sa aking blog tungkol sa pagbabagong naganap sa TV5 noong nakaraang Marso 25, 2010 sa World Trade Center, pero tila nahihirapan talaga ako sa hindi ko mawaring dahilan kaya akin na lang itong isusulat sa Wikang mas kaya kong magkwento ng buong puso at walang pag-aalinlangan.

TV5_Grand_Launch_Kapatid122

Masaya ako na nakadalo ako noong nakaraang Huwebes sa World Trade Center para sa napaka-engrandeng pagtitipon na inihanda ng mga taong bumubuo sa mas palaban at mas maliksing TV5. Hindi na sila ka-Shake ngayon, kundi mga Kapatid na. Ayos, ‘di ba?

Huwag ninyo akong kontrahin kung sabihin kong isa akong malaking tagahanga ng TV5. Kung mabibigyan nga lang ako ng pagkakataon ay nanaisin ko talagang magtrabaho dun at maging opisyal na Kapatid. Nakikita mo kasi na handa silang sumugal para mas lalong umangat ang kanilang kumpanya at mas mapagbigyan ang gusto ng mga masa at sosyalerang manonood.

Sinu-sino ba ang mga naispatan ko noong gabing iyon? Teka, magkukuwento na nga lang ako sa pamamagitan ng sandamakmak na larawang nakunan ko gamit ang aking kamera. Eto na!

Tayong Dalawa Grand Press Launch

5 Replies

Last Wednesday, I attended the Grand Press Launch of ABS-CBN’s Tayong Dalawa, the kapamilya network’s newest primetime show starring Gerald Anderson, Kim Chiu and Jake Cuenca.

I met up with the bloggers and finally met Flowell, who works with ABS-CBN Interactive. We all went to Teatrino and we were a bit overwhelmed with the set-up and all. It turned out that the show is not the usual presscon where the press eats dinner and ask questions to the actors. The show turned out to be a tribute night for Tayong Dalawa’s supporting cast that turned out to be very powerful in every sense of the word – Award-Winning, Legends, Most Respected – lahat na.

Weeks ago, Myk and I have been discussing about a possible blog event for TV5. I first met him at the Belo Open House for Bloggers (the first event that I organized) and he is such a cool guy. Finally, his first event for TV 5 was a major success!

RAKENROL MGA RAKISTA!

11 Replies

Though my beloved Black wallet was stolen in the MRT last Tuesday morning, I can say that I didn’t have a bad day at all.

I went to Kimono Ken at Tomas Morato at lunch time for the mini-presscon of Rakista director Quark Henares. See, I’ve been a fan of Quark since he wrote and directed the movie Keka, which I consider as one of the best Filipino movies of all time mainly because of the unique concept, great actors (I didn’t see Katya Santos as a Viva Hot Babe in that movie) and because of some coincidence in the names of the main characters.

Moving on..

I’ve known Quark online two years ago because he is one of my LJ contacts. I constantly commented on his posts and he also did in some of my entries (especially the Super Noypi-related ones LOL). I finally met him just last May 2008 in a birthday party at Mag:Net Cafe and yep, na-starstruck ako! I never thought that he can can really entertain the guests well with his “Straight” and “Gay” version of Lisa Loeb’s “Stay”.

Last year, I read his post regarding his new baby entitled “Rakenrol”. It is an indie movie about bands and all that. The movie stars Glaiza De Castro, Jason Abalos, Ketchup Eusebio, Alwyn Uytingco and Diether Ocampo. I heard that they only have two shooting days left and the movie might be released anytime next year.

So while working on a number of stuff which includes teaching college students, taking photos at blow-up babies, rocking the rockeoke nights of Mag:net Cafe, directing music videos and tvs and writing scripts for his upcoming projects, he managed to direct and produce TV-5’s RAKISTA.

RAKISTA is being shown every Thursday night at 7pm with replays on Sundays at 1pm. It stars Carlo Aquino (Caloy), Denise Laurel (CC), Rea Nakpil (Bebe), Alcris Galura (Nix), Charles Christianson (Ted) and Wincy Ong (Sven).

Carlo Aquino as Caloy

Here are some random facts about the show:

* The role Caloy is really intended for Carlo Aquino. The producers handpicked him because of his talent as an actor and as a musician.
