Project Runway ala Dexter

We are excited. Project Runway 8, coming na!

But wait, the teaser is so "Dexter" ha!

Watch:


Compare:


Lifetime ha! Gaya-gaya! Pls lang! Pero, OK lang.... watch pa rin! July 29th na ang Premiere! Go lang ng go! For more info on Project Runway 8, check here.

Magkaribal Sotto

Inumpisahan kasi ng ingeterrang Ate Sienna, kaya eto nakapag-blog tuloy ako. Oo, Magkaribal Fan po ako! (Idamay na rin si Mama O). Inaabangan sa YouTube, wala kasi kaming TFC. Poorisima Pascual ang lola ninyo!

Kahit obvious na kung saan papunta ang storya, sige pa rin! Kakatuwa kasi ang awayang Vera at Victoria; Effective ang Bea; Ang cute ni Enchong! ; at Fashion-Fashion ang thema! Kaya watch ang mga bruha.

Ayan! Ang Greta ninyo. Kahit wala na sa eksena. Diva-divahan pa rin ang drama.

"Yaya! Amoy chlorox ang panyong ito! Itapon! Go!"

Suggestion lang sana:

1. Dapat gawing supermodel ala Ria Bolivar ang role ni Gigi (Bianca Manalo)! Natural ang acting ng Bb. Pilipinas-Universe na to ha! Pag-aagawan kunwari ni Vera and Victoria. Divisoria Girl turned high fashion Mannequin. Magandang side-story line yan, mga Bakla!

2. More of Bea-Enchong-Erich friendship! Yung kumakain sa Jollibee together na moment! Parang ganyan, Davu? Barkadahan ala Tabing Ilog style. Masaya man at malungkot na scenes, clique pa rin!

3. Gawing spy ni Victoria sa Vera Couture si Nina Ricci Alagao! Notice ko kasi parang one-liner lang ang role ng Binibini-after-Miriam natin. Dapat bigyan ng magandang role itong bruhang to. Sayang ang shiny nyang buhok!

4. Mag Fashion Magazine publisher na lang si Chloe (Erich) dahil di naman sya magaling mag-design di ba? Ala Mega or Preview na calibre. Or mag-model pwede na rin! Dito makikita ni Vera na talented din pala ang anak nyang adopted. (Anak kaya sya ng characters nina Arlene Mulach at John Arcilla? Wag na! Pls lang! Over na kung ganyan!)

5. Gawing ala Bryanboy manamit ang role ng baklang spy-designer ni Vera! Or di kaya ala Jujin Samonte or Toxic Boy na dating. Don't deny, dumadami na ang population nila! Para mas bongga, di ba? At para naman may aabangan tayo.

6. More Fashion Shows! at simple na stage lang sana. Yung black and White na backdrop at di masyadong kukurtinahing "bongga" dahil baduy ang kinalabasan. It reminds me of German Moreno's shows kasi. Eeew!

7. Introduce a Supermodel character. (Yung away awayin si Bianca!). Ala Naomi dapat. Diva-divahan. Pala-yosi. At please lang, dapat Skinny noh! Sino kaya ang bagay dito? Wilma Doesnt? Maggie Wilson? or Pokwang?

8. More Pinoy fashion celebrities as guest stars. (at patayin na ang role ni Renee Salud. Chos lang!) Sotto? Laurel? Moreno? or Eddie Badeo? Aaaay!

9. Mention naman sana nila ang sakit ng character ni Arlene Mulach. Curious lang kasi ako. Parang na Heart Attack, tapos nag Seizures, tapos labas agad sa hospital. Diabetes siguro, pwede pa. Ching lang at baka magalit si Aga.

10. More Fashion and more chi-chi Dresses! Ipakita ang design process ni Victoria and Jelai… their inspiration and how the dresses were made. Like kung ano ang ganap sa mga scenes this week, sana may corresponding na bonggang bonggang dress inspired by the events. May tele-novela ka na, may project runway ka pa! Di ba masaya?

Yan! Yun lang! Sana mabasa ito ng ABS-CBN. Ate Charo... maganda ka! (Charo Ronquillo, gagah! Not the Santos-Concious! Charing!) FYI, Pangako Sa Yo pa ang last Tele-Novela na inabangan ko. The Claudia-Amor war of words is back sa katauhan nina Vera at Victoria. More Amor Powers sa Magkaribal! Pls lang!

The Beauty Pageant Is Over

OK, accept ko na. I am no longer Megan Young na. Kaya....

From this:

To this na:

I should be age-appropriate na talaga. Promise!

100 and Maximo Oliveros, Restored

I love Cinemalaya's TVCs.

Especially this one for 2010, "Casket"



and this one too: "Maximo"



Mabuhay ang mga tao behind Cinemalaya! Bravo!

Ahas!

Sino ang takot sa ahas this time?

Nothing to do with the ahas, love to know that Adechike is safe!!! But this season SYTYCD's clear winner has to go bye-bye because of an injury. Goodbye Alex and hope to see you next season!

SYTYCD Rants

Our Favorite SYTYCD Dancers, Alex and Adechicke were supposed to dance together this week in our favorite routine, Bollywood! That should have been amazing. But because of Alex's injury, Ade danced with a replacement partner instead.

He was awesome giving us 'unintentional' African twist to Bollywood but the judges didnt like it. They're kinda bias in my opinion. They have their favorites already and gosh, they are into pa-cute-ness ha. Especially that lolang baklang Nigel Lithgow na yan! Kainis ang pustiso. Chos!

Nice that our fave host, Cat Deeley saved Ade with those leaning comments. (At ang Lolang Nigel, defensive pa ang leche! Why dont he compare his fave Jose's (gwapo kasi) Bollywood to Ade's performance? Mas magaling yung kay Ade noh! Tse nya!)

By rule, Alex is surely in the bottom 3 tomorrow for not performing this week. But we are 99% sure that they will let him stay. I voted for Adechike. If he ends up at the bottom 3 tomorrow, there's a big chance that the bwisiting judges will let him go. Pls lang ha! Tse!

(Sorry girls, I cant find a video of Adechike's Bollywood dance. Maybe it's too early for someone to DL it at this time. I'll leave you with last season's Bollywood routine instead. With my fave that season, .... cute and sexy, Jason. Here it is:).

Teng's Limbunan

Fellow blogger Gutierrez "Teng" Mangansakan II's debut film is one of the 10 films to be shown in the 6th Cinemalaya Film Festival this July. Starring Tita Techie and Papa Joem, we are excited for you, Teng!

Limbunan Trailer from Bidadali House on Vimeo.

Synopsis:
Set in 1989, the film captures the ritual motions of the women in a family preparing for the wedding of 16-year-old Ayesah who has been betrothed to a man she barely knows. As Maguindanaon tradition dictates, she will be kept from public view in her private quarters –limbunan— where she will be prepared, readied, and pampered for her wedding.

As preparations for her union is underway, Ayesah is reunited with her childhood tutor Maguid who returns to the village as a militiaman after an absence of five years, reawakening Ayesah’s past memory of childhood infatuation.

Throughout Ayesah’s confinement her precocious and rebellious eight-year-old sister Saripa becomes her eyes to the world beyond her room. Her mother Amina keeps her composure despite the fact her husband sleeps with his second wife half of the time, finding solace in the belief that it is both her religious and familial duty to be an obedient wife.

Ayesah’s aunt Farida is tasked to ensure that she is prepared for the wedding. However, Farida’s dark past challenges Ayesah’s resolve finding herself choosing between love and loyalty to tradition and family.

Premiere will be on July 10 at the Cultural Center of the Philippines. Wish we can attend to support you Teng. We are so proud of you. Go lang ng go! Congratulations and good luck!
