INDIE POP GROUP 1:43: LOVE THEM, HATE THEM BUT YOU CAN NEVER IGNORE THEM!


The release of the digital debut single "Merry Christmas Na" of independent pop group 1:43 (pronounced as "one forty-three") has been the talk of the wired world in the past two weeks. While thousands of teenage girls and pop music lovers started going gaga over the four Oriental-looking boys namely Anjo, Gold, Kim, and Yuki, some shared their strongest opinion against the group.

The song "Merry Christmas Na" was written by composer and respected advertising agency creative director Eric Cabahug and was arranged by Jonathan Ong, the music genius behind multi-awarded international and local albums including Gloc-9's critically acclaimed past two albums, Kamikaze's "Darna," and Orange & Lemon's "Pinoy Ako."

Meanwhile, the music video was produced by SineGang Entertainment, a group of talent young filmmakers from prestigious Big Foot Film School in Cebu City.

The polarized public opinion on 1:43, fueled by bloggers, fans, and even haters, has resulted to an overnight success and instant public awareness. The music video has received over 41,000 hits in YouTube in just two weeks and was shared in Facebook for about 11,000 times to date. The boy band's shows are always jam-packed with screaming fans.

The exponential growth of 1:43's fan base particularly among its youth market causes fear from their detractors who think that the group might be the future of OPM. Blog site www.mgaepal.com said it best: "May nakakatakot akong kutob na sisikat ang mga p**tang in**g ito!"

And yes, by all indications their fears are coming true.

EJ FALCON, IS THAT YOU IN THE PHOTO SCANDAL?

EJ Falcon is that you?

A photo of a naked male teenager who many believe has a striking resemblance to the profile of ABS-CBN talent and Pinoy Big Brother Teen Edition grand winner EJ Falcon is circulating in Facebook.

The teenager who appeared to be sleeping on a coach, seemed unaware that he will be photographed with his boxer shorts pulled down. Observers think that he may have been drunk or under the influence of illegal drugs at that time.



While it's easy to judge that the young man is indeed EJ Falcon, I rather give him the benefit of the doubt. The photo doesn't show anything that is identifiable only to him. I think I can name more than 10 people who would exactly look like the teenager in question if I would take their picture at that angle.

SCOOP: IS VENUS RAJ JOINING WILLING-WILLIE?

Venus: "I'm not aware..."

Comedian Willie Revillame is said to be eyeing on Miss Universe 2010 runner-up Venus Raj as his second female co-host in his primetime game show "Willing-Willie" (TV5) after surprisingly signing up former presidential girlfriend and Valenzuela councilor Shalani Soledad.

Is Willie Revillame eyeing on beauty queen Venus Raj as his co-host?  
According to sources, the mass appeal of the statuesque Bicolana beauty queen may help Willie attain his goal to overthrow TV Patrol (ABS-CBN) and 24-Oras (GMA-7) in the ratings game.

But Venus denied the speculations that a negotiation is on the works for her inclusion in the controversial game show. In a conversation with Mr Blind Item a few days ago, Venus said that Binibining Pilipinas Charities, Inc. (BPCI) and her manager Jonas Gaffud, has not informed her of any deal being cooked up with Willie.

Miss International 2005 Lara Quigaman was once a co-host
of "Wowowee"
"So far I have not been told by BPCI and my manager about the Willing-Willie gig," said the beauty queen. "I have no knowledge about it..."

Should Willie pursue his plans, Venus would be the second international beauty queen to serve as his co-host. In 2007,  Miss International titleholder Precious Lara Quigaman became a co-host of his now defunct noontime show "Wowowee."

SCOOP: BEKIMON'S JUNAKIS UNMASKED!

Junakis looks as good as he sounds

It it true that the mystery man behind the innocently sexy voice of Junakis of YouTube sensation Bekimon (Bern Josep Persia) is now ready to reveal his identity?

The popular Junakis character who has charmed and intrigued thousands of Filipino fans of the Bekimon video series that has received over 2.4 million YouTube hits so far remains elusive in front of the camera. Various speculations about his true identity came out-- some suggesting that he is either Bekimon's lover, his officemate, or his bestfriend.

Junakis was sorely missed by his fans after he and Bekimon has parted ways a few months back. Bekimon then went on a solo showbiz career and has landed a major role in the top-rating noon-time soap "Juanita Banana" and Junakis went back to his family. But the YouTube tandem has finally reconciled and the two are planning on coming up with more hilarious videos for their followers.

But who really is Junakis? Until he is ready, these are the only clues I can reveal:

a. Junakis is an indie actor.
b. Just like Bekimon before, Junakis works in a call center.
c. Yes, your speculation is true. Junakis looks as good as he sounds. You would easily recognize him in person if you are a Bekimon fan.
d. He is Bekimon's best friend. The two are inseparable.

BLIND ITEM #45: SEPARATED ACTRESS MAINTAINS SEXUAL AFFAIR WITH COMMITTED ACTOR?

A love affair comparable to "Bridges of Madison County"

This is one of the most complicated sexual affairs in Philippine showbiz today.

Separated Actress (SA), who can be classified as MILF (Mothers I Love to Fuck), was caught by an informant of Mr Blind Item sneaking into a hotel room where Hunk Actor (HA) has earlier checked in. The sophisticated actress and the committed actor reportedly spent the night together-- ehem, probably just to chitchat-- and checked out a few hours away from each other to avoid any suspicion from the hotel staff.

SA is picking up her life, and beauty, once lost when she was a full-time wife and mother of a philandering husband. She spent so much time with HA, who is a noted womanizer, in a project recently and perhaps fell in love him.  

Their sexual liaison is bound to cause so much misery and real-life drama. Either SA will end up alone again or HA's charming girlfriend will end up broken-hearted.

BLIND ITEM #44: ACTRESS SHOWED UP DRUNK IN AWARDS NIGHT


The worsening and uncontrollable alcohol addiction of Popular Actress (PA) has been the subject of many blind items in the past. Many would swear to their relative's grave that she is always tipsy, or even drunk even at work. Her excuse is alcohol brings out the best in her and so it should not be really an issue.

But in one awards night, PA seemed to have forgotten to be discreet about her drinking problem. Along with some friends in the industry, she showed up under the influence of alcohol. Hundreds of people noticed her loose and exceptionally loud behavior and lack of motor control.

I just hope advertisers who entrust their brand image to PA were not in the event. Kundi lagot ka girl!

SUPER SCOOP: QTV 11 PLANS TO REFORMAT AS A NEWS CHANNEL?



For the third time, QTV 11 is changing its programming format from being a lifestyle network primarily targeting women to a news and public affairs channel, a highly reliable source told MR BLIND ITEM.

The alternative network, owned by GMA 7 on a 100% leased airtime from ZOE Broadcasting Network, started airing on November 11, 2005 as a women's lifestyle station. It was expected to compete with the then No. 3 station, Studio 23 owned by ABS-CBN.

However, recent turns of events pushed QTV 11's standing to No. 5 with TV5 challenging the standing of ABS-CBN and GMA 7 in the No 1 and No 2 spots.

According to sources, QTV 11 will bank on the highly respected news and public affairs team of GMA 7 to attract viewership. It will be a 24-hour news channel similar to ANC, but only on free TV.

Good luck to QTV 11 on it's new move!

IS SPENCER REYES OF STREETBOYS NOW A HOSTO IN A JAPANESE BAR?

Spencer was once more popular than his fellow Streetboys
member Vhong Navarro

Spencer Reyes, the first to become an actor in the 90s all-male dance group Streetboys, has been missing in action in Philippine showbiz in the past few years.

The former teen heartthrob who was once paired up with Judy Ann Santos in Esperanza (ABS-CBN) and the winner of the 1999 PMPC Star Awards for TV's Best Actor for his performance in a "Maalaala Mo Kaya" episode titled "Gulong," was last seen in TV5's dance show "Shall We Dance" in August, 2007.

According to source, Spencer who is now 32 years old, is making ends meet at a famed "hosto" or entertainer in a bar in Japan. Much of Spencer's personal life today is not known, especially his marital status.

In the late 90s to early 2000, Spencer overshadows his fellow Streetboys members Vhong Navarro (who is now one of the most bankable comedians in the Philippines), Danilo Barrios, and Jhong Hilario who remains highly visible because of the noontime show "Showtime." For whatever reason, Spencer left showbiz in 2001 and made a comeback in showbiz with the movie "Spirit Warriors." 

With Spencer's dancing and acting skills-- and I am sure he is now even seasoned by experience-- and charisma to the masses, a big comeback is inevitable.

BLIND ITEM #43: MALE SINGER IS POSITIVE OF GONORRHEA


Embarrassment engulfed Male Singer (MS) last week when his doctor advised him go on a prolonged sex holiday after he was confirmed to be suffering from a common sexually transmitted disease (STD) called gonorrhea or "tulo."

The soft-looking soloist reportedly rushed himself to a private doctor to complain about his painful leak. It turned out that MS has acquired gonorrhea from his numerous sexual encounters lately with other men.

Yes, MS is gay as well all suspected.

MISS PHILIPPINES KRISTA KLEINER IS THE FAVORITE AMONG INFERIOR BATCH OF MISS INTERNATIONAL DELEGATES

Good News. Our very own Binibing Pilipinas International Krista Kleiner is the top contender of this year's Miss International pageant in China. She can be our fifth Miss International following the footsteps of Gemma Cruz Araneta, Aurora Pijuan, Melanie Marquez, and Precious Lara Quigaman.

Pageant authority Globalbeauties.com ranked Krista No. 1 in it's leaders board followed by Miss Check Republic, Miss Greece, Miss Venezuela, and Miss Ecuador respectively. Please check leader board  screen grab below.


Bad News. This year's batch of Miss International contestants is the most inferior I've ever seen in my life time. It reminds me of the bad years of Miss Asia Pacific Quest in the late 90s when the public interest on the pageant was dying down. There are a few competent ladies who would shine even in cut-throat pageants like Miss World and Miss Universe, and Krista is definitely one of them.

You may see the images of the contestants by clicking the link below. Please let me know your thoughts.

BLIND ITEM #42: IN-DEMAND CHARACTER ACTOR IS SABA KING!


In-demand Character Actor (ICA) should be casted in ABC-CBN's afternoon soap opera "Juanita Banana" and be given the role of human saba, a local banana variant known for being not-so-long but insanely thick appearance.

Why so? According to a very reliable source of Mr Blind Item, the reputable actor who is known for his mostly bad boy roles in soap operas and mainstream and independent movies, possesses a manly pride that women-- and allegedly gays too-- would choke for. And the most appropriate comparison to ICA's pecker is the innocent "saba."

Gosh, now I know why beautiful women go gaga with ICA even if he's not exactly that goodlooking. Napapa-turon naman pala sila sa sarap!

BLIND ITEM #41: LEGENDARY MOVIE DIRECTOR FLASHES HIS PECKER IN THEATER RESTROOMS

Legendary movie director  is in the movie houses for a different reason
Legendary Movie Director (LMD) loves hanging out in the movie houses, particularly in Robinson's Galleria where independent gay movies are screened. But he is not there to watch the works of up and coming filmmakers and actors. He has another agenda in mind, to cruise that is.

Yes, LMD stays longer in the restroom than in front of the big screen. An informant of Mr Blind Item caught the good director flashing his private parts and trying to take a peek at moviegoers who are using the urinals. And it wasn't a sight that one can easily stomach. LMD is just too old and isn't exactly goodlooking (even in his younger years when he was still directing those semi-perverted and sex-oriented "art" films).

Or maybe he is just making a research for his up and coming movie about a septuagenarian film director who cruises in rotten theaters while his old movies are showing. What do you think of "Sinehan ni Lolo" for a title? Hmmm. Sounds like a good storyline.

BLIND ITEM #40: TV HOST IS A BATHHOUSE REGULAR IN PARIS

Did he find love in a gay bath house?
They say that the self will find its way out, not matter how much it is suppressed.

For wholesome, goodie-two-shoes TV Host (TVH), the honor and integrity of his family is loftier than himself. That is why in spite of his realization on his true sexuality, he never dared come out in the open-- at least here in the Philippines. He chooses where he messes up and the venue is far away from the eyes of his gossiping countrymen.

One evening in Paris, TVH decided to cruise in his favorite an exclusive bathhouse called Sun City at 62 Avenue on Sevastopol near Pompidou District. He went on his usual bathhouse activities, and being the only Asian on sight, he garnered so much attention from the dominantly European regulars.

Or so he thought. Another Asian, a Filipino to be precise, was just lurking inside one of the dark rooms of the bathhouse. When the eyewitness finished his first round and continued cruising in the maze-like establishments, he had the shock of his life. His saw the respected TV host surrounded but by a group of naked men. He was the center of all the actions, outperforming many porn stars that night.

BLIND ITEM #39: LIBERATED ACTRESS IS AWARE OF HER LEADING MAN'S SEXUALITY

Liberated actress is feeling so lesbian each time her closeted onscreen partner
kisses her
Even before Liberated Actress (LA) and her Dashing Leading Man (DLM) worked together in various projects, she has already heard about his many sexual indiscretions-- not with women but with other men in and out of show business.

But then again LA knows that show business pairing is merely a game. And since her onscreen tandem with DLM seems to benefit her popularity, she played on even if she swears to her closest friends that she is feeling so lesbian each time the closeted actor flirts with her in front of the camera and in public gatherings.

Aside from the smitten fans, LA needs DLM to cover up her own Achilles heels. She has a loving heart-- well actually too loving that she changes boyfriends, and of course sleeps with them, as often as she changes underwear!

So for now, they are an ideal match. And a perfect example to Biology students of what is mutualism.

10 MOST UNDERRATED CELEBRITY ENDORSERS TODAY (PART 2)

It took me a little while to post the second part of my blog entry "10 Most Underrated Celebrity Endorsers Today." The first post named the only the first five namely Regine Velasquez, Denise Laurel, Spongecola, Charice, and Venus Raj.

Here is the second and final batch of Filipino celebrities who truly deserve to be in advertising campaigns but are not given so much chance.




RACHELLE ANN GO
Except for a Bench campaign a few years ago and a Videoke brand, Rachelle Ann Go has not been tapped in any serious advertising campaign. What a major oversight for this singing competition champion and Platinum Record artist whose weekly performances in  "Party Pilipinas" every Sunday in GMA 7 is nothing short of being world-class. 

Rachelle is oozing with sex-appeal and can be the sultry counterpart of her fellow Viva artist and multi-media superstar Sarah Geronimo. She simply needs a good endorsement break. A shampoo or soap brand perhaps?  


RYAN BANG
Pure Korean and Pinoy Big Brother Teen Edition housemate Ryan Bang is hilariously addictive. His raw, awkward brand of comedy tickles hundreds of thousands of Filipinos everyday in Showtime. He will soon have another afternoon show in ABS-CBN.

Comedians like Ryan should be able to attract brands that use humor in their campaigns including telecomms, food and condiments, and even junk foods. He is capable of making a tagline resonate in the minds of the consumers. Party, party! Right, Ryan?



PRECIOUS LARA QUIGAMAN
Simple and elegant, Precious Lara Quiagaman is the last Binibining Pilipinas titleholder to take home one of the most prestigious crowns-- Miss International 2005 title who earlier won by legendary Filipino beauties Gemma Cruz Araneta, Aurora Pijuan, Melanie Marquez. 

While Lara has a handful of endorsements, they are not huge multi-media campaigns. Come on advertisers, is that what you can offer to someone who brought so much honor to our nation?  Undoubtedly, Lara's wholesome image, intelligence, and vibrant personality make her an ideal ambassador for a wide variety of brands.




ALEX GONZAGA
Alex Gonzaga is one juicy celebrity to ignore. She is after all, TV5's princess. Even when she was has younger, she's always on her own, stepping out of the shadows of her more popular elder sister Toni Gonzaga. 

Aside from an apparel brand that she endorses with her sister and an almost cameo role in a television commercial of bottled beverage brand, Alex mysteriously remain untapped as a celebrity endorser. Her vibrant and youthful character is not just relatable, it is also memorable. Advertisers should take a second look at Alex, before she get even bigger as an artist, and yes, more expensive as an endorser.



XLR8
I've been wondering why advertisers of youth-oriented brands have not taken advantage of the original P-Pop group XLR8. Composed of eight exceptionally talented and good-looking young men namely Francis Ramos, Carlos Lazerna, Hideaki Torio, Caleb Santos, twins Melmar and Meljohn Magno, and Aga Mulach's brother Adrian, XLR8 has a huge fan base-- many of them are teens who follow the K-Pop trend.

XLR8 is loaded with youthful adrenaline and has a commanding presence. With such a level of talent, I think advertisers of beverages, technology, and fashions brands can be playful and imaginative.

BLIND ITEM #38: MACHO SEXY STAR IS A SIZE QUEEN!





On screen, Macho Sexy Star (MSS) is oozing with raw masculinity. But in bed, he is a dirty-talking queen who prefers no less than exceptionally gifted men.


MSS, who has appeared in independent gay movies and has so many ass-exposed photos, is always on the lookout for men with extra large assets. (Mind you, he doesn't want them just large but extra large!) And luckily, his friends help him find bedmates by introducing him to their foreign acquaintances.

Ewww! I can't imagine what kind of sphincter he must have by now.

SHALANI SOLEDAD-JAMES YAP LOVE TEAM, HEATING UP!

Shalani and James are being romantically linked together by fans
Have fans of the former love interests of the powerful Aquino siblings PNoy and Kris found company in misery?

Many people are actually smitten with the possibility of seeing Valenzuela Councilor Shalani Soledad and basketball superstar James Yap become a real life couple.

As we all know, Shalani is broken-hearted after the President abandoned her to concentrate on the matters of the nation and being caught dating another girl even without public announcement of their split-up. James, meanwhile, is on a legal battle for the custody of his son Bamby with his ex-wife, television host and actress Kris, who earlier asked the courts to nullify their marriage.

"Shalani and James look so good together. If they start dating, it's going to be an advantage that they are of the same age. A May-December love affair is so complicated that is why it's always bound to fail," a fan told Mr Blind Item.

Others though have nasty reasons in mind: that is to spite the PNoy and Kris for leaving their well-loved idols.

I know that anything can happen in this wild, wild world but a Shalani and James romance is just beyond my imagination.

Shalani could have been a fabulous First Lady. Her bearing and demeanor
is regal.
James and Kris during their happier days together

NEW BOY BAND 1:43 IS A FUSION OF KOREAN LOOKS AND OPM

1:43 members Anjo, Gold, Kim, and Yuki will surely win your heart

Anjo is a great dancer. He has a well-toned sexy body.

Gold, they say, is the most Korean-looking in the group but he is in fact just
half-Filipino and half-Chinese


Kim is most adored by the Tween market. He is a regular in Candy Magazine events.


1:43 main vocals Yuki has a distinctly pleasant voice. He is half-Japanese.


Oriental-looking boy band 1:43 (pronounced as "one forty-three," just like how you read time) is set to dominate the local pop scene.

Composed of four adorably goodlooking boys namely Anjo, Gold, Kim, and Yuki, 1:43 will be introduced through a digital promotional single titled "Merry Christmas Na." They will be promoted through a series of mall, campus, and TV guest appearances as well as a music video.


While K-Pop and P-Pop fans would appreciate the highly Korean-inspired look of 1:43-- their music is distinctly OPM.

BLIND ITEM #37: BLOGGERS WALKED OUT ON DIVA TELENOVELA ACTRESS!


An up and coming Telenovela Actress (TA) is now the subject of criticisms in various blogs after she has allegedly given the members of the online press a taste of her diva attitude. According to sources, TA, who hails from a showbiz family,  wasn't even discreet about her dislike to be interviewed and photographed in a media event that was supposed to promote her new show.

TA's nasty efforts to elude the press were captured in a photo essay published in a blog. The images showed her ignoring the interviewers and pretending to be doing something else like working on her laptop. Mr Blind Item was told that she likewise asked her PA to screen the questions and request for security details. (Security details talaga! Wow!)

What eventually ticked the bloggers to walkout of the event was when she told them "Can you please excuse me?" in her harsh villainous voice, probably channeling Nicole Ricci or Paris Hilton while being chased after by Paparazzi.

Isn't it too early to start acting like a diva dear?

BLIND ITEM #36: BALLADEER WORE MIDRIB SHIRT, GIRLY BAG WHILE MALLING

Good Balladeer is ready to dance "Physical" 
Good Balladeer (GB) has denied it a million times. As far as he is concerned, he is as straight as a bullet (although many observers believe that the bullet he is referring to must have been the one fired by Angelina Jolie in the action-packed movie "Wanted.")

Recently, a Mr Blind Item informant has spotted GB walking mindlessly in a mall in Ortigas wearing something that a gay-in-denial would consciously avoid-- a midrib shirt and a girly bag! The uber-parlorista look of GB was such an eyesore to the mall-goers because it doesn't even fit his body's frame.

Now don't ask me why GB has never been seen dating a girl. Obvious ba?

SAM-SARAH-COCO LOVE TRIANGLE IS A TOTAL DISASTER

Sam Milby, Sarah Geronimo, and Coco Martin have no chemistry together?
The news that Sarah Geronimo's latest project "Idol" will be axed on primetime television caused a trickle of speculations. While the "Idol" team maintains that the official reason for cutting short the musical soap (from its supposed 10 to 13 week-run to just eight weeks) is production related many believe otherwise.

According to the show's observers, the casting of the key roles in "Idol" was a total disaster. It miserably failed to deliver the charm and excitement that the soap intends to fire up in the hearts and minds of its audience.

Worse, the love triangle of pop princess Sarah Geronimo, Sam Milby, and Coco Martin looked so incredulous. Coming from a highly successful pairing with dramatic actor John Lloyd, people expected more on-screen chemistry between Sarah and Sam. But the lack of real love interest between the two, or at least for the fans, the wild chance that one would fall in love with the other, translated into detached and frigid characters on the boobtube.

The Sarah-John Lloyd love team was believable and felt sincere
It didn't help too that Coco Martin is in the picture. The multi-awarded actor may be damn good but his bold indie past was a baggage in sparking an on-screen romance with the pure and perky Sarah.

In spite of many script revisions, "Idol" ended up at the bottom of the primetime game. In the past few days, it was eaten alive by GMA 7's Illumina in the AGB Mega Manila ratings at 14.2% against 9%.

I hope that Sarah soon gets a project that would take her to the next level of her acting career, just like her music. She is done with pa-cute roles and would best shine, and attract televiewers, with a more challenging and mature roles. I am looking forward to that.

BLIND ITEM #35: MARRIED PUBLIC OFFICIAL, CAUGHT DATING HIGH SOCIETY LADY


A Charismatic Legislator (CL) was sighted dating with a lovely High Society Lady (HSL) in a private area of posh restaurant in ResortsWorld across the Centennial Airport. Witnesses noticed that there were intense flirting and genuine mutual attraction between CL and HSL. In fact, they would have looked like a perfect match if only CL isn't committed.

Earlier, CL was rumored to have broken up with his young wife to whom he has toddler kids. They couple have not issued an official statement denying nor confirming the issue although observers say that CL's wife have been absent in functions where they are supposed to be together.

Is the date a validation that CL is back on the game as a bachelor?

FILIPINA CELEBRITY LOOKALIKES IN TRANSEXUAL PAGEANT

Miss Filipina Beauty 2010, an annual search for the country's most exquisite and talented transgender and transexual beauty in the Philippines, boost of an array of interesting contestants that look almost exactly like our movie and television celebrities.

Here are the contestants and their popular celebrity counterparts:

Did Angel Locsin leave "Immortal" to join the pageant? 
The real Angel Locsin

She claims to look like Isabel Oli, but I would say she's closer to former sex siren
Patricia Javier
Patricia Javier is a former Binibining Pilipinas finalist.
She's now based in the US with her chiropractor husband
and a son
Gretchen Barretto is that you?
Ahhh. I think the first girl is the real Gretchen Barretto. Too close a call.
It's almost like Halina Perez got up from her grave!
The sultry Halina Perez died in a car accident a few years back

Does she have Margie Moran's famed "X" factor? You be the judge.
Margie Moran is a classic beauty. She is the last Miss Universe winner the Philippines. 
She can perfectly pass as Mocha's double 
I would say, Mocha beats her gay dead-ringer but a shower.
I can't think of anyone who looks like her but I included her photo anyway.
She's very pretty though and has to traces of masculinity. A sure winner.
