Press favorites: Jackie Rice, Marky Cielo and Iwa Moto

Medyo I’m scared for this weekend. Sino kaya ang ma-e-eliminate?

Arci Munoz wrote a comment again. Thank you Arci. (Say hi to Bugz, Gian and Marky for me — hahaha, pati rin kay Iwa your best friend!) I just hope we can all put this behind us. Hindi ko na ma-take yung iyakan every night. Admittedly, the show is stretching this for more mileage, but it looks like natauhan na din sila that they cannot crucify their talents indefinitely without ruining their public image. Ironically, with the comments in this blog, ang daming galit kay Jana and Arci — when in fact the root of the controversy was Jackie! Anyway, hopefully this serves a lesson to everyone involved. And Arci, no more crying this weekend, okay? Kung hindi ka ma-eliminate, bawi ka na lang next week sa acting.

Diba ang ganda ng pictorial nila? Parang artista na talaga. Nagawa nilang sexy si Bugz, even sexier si Jackie at seryoso si Vivo. It’s nice to know na hindi sila tinipid ng kanilang manager (unlike some of the other survivors).

Video clips:
Bugz, Jackie, Vivo: Shirtless
Gian Carlos: Jackie, kami ni Bugz nilalait mo palagi (may feelings din kami!)

This photoshoot was notable for the wigs that Chuck Allie and Marky Cielo wore. Unfortunately, they did not show any pictures from that whimsical set (thank god) — it probably was hideous.

It seems that Marky is truly on the right track to becoming the first Igorot superstar in the Philippines. He should use the coming weeks to continue to build his self-confidence, and other skills needed to becoming a star. He should also have a bahag pictorial like Douglas Quijano joked about. It’s only proper. Hahaha. Go Markeeeehh!

And because you demanded it:

This was a lousy pictorial. The clothes, the style, the location — looked cheap to me. I laughed when the photographer said pang-beauty products ang beauty ni Arci Munoz. Just a hint of ANTM, but not quite. Among the three groups, this set was a distant third.

Although in hindsight, masang masa ‘to.

Medyo thoroughly distracted na yata tayo with this computer scandal. So what’s the point? Tanggalin na ang mga pasaway dahil sinungaling sila? Or matuwa tayo na nagsisinungaling sila?

Although I guess in fairness, it’s a ploy that’s working since lahat ng teenage fans ng StarStruck ay naskandalo sa nangyari. So they lied, big deal. Can we now talk about some of the ridiculous fashion sense of some of these designers? Anyway…

Nahirapan akong mag-isip ng exit strategy for Arci Munoz dahil mas mahirap na ngayon umabot kay Iwa Moto, kahit palengkera pa ang asta nito the other day. Napaka-public enemy na ngayon si Arci, even getting worse treatment than Jackie Rice, who is clearly the chronic liar — voted unanimously by all the survivors. Although in an ironic twist, it was Iwa who defended Arci — na natuwa naman ako dahil Arci followed my advice to get close to Iwa (nice one!)

Unfortunately, Arci has chosen the path of being wrongly accused, which after three days is not working. In fact, Jana, who is also using the same strategy, is doing a better job. Sabi sa yo Arci mahirap ma-project sa masa na matalino ka dahil people will easily think that you are scheming and fooling them, whether or not its the truth. Now kung mag mea culpa ka naman, baka mag-work din yun, for as long as you make a big deal out of it. Parang isang one-on-one direct confessional with Direk caught on tape of course. Maghagulgol ka and all that — pero dapat sincere, baka mag-backfire. Okay? Think about it. I can only do so much, iha. Iniisip ko rin ang kapakanan nina Bugz Daigo, Gian Carlos at Marky Cielo.
