Why Paulo Avelino might not be given movie assignment

It also didn’t help that Avelino and Chiu did unfollow Star Cinema on Instagram. That action was clearly seen by the executives as a rebellious act

While it seems that “all’s well that ends well” is the drama between Kim Chiu and Paulo Avelino on one end and Star Cinema executives on another end, it’s most likely that it will be Avelino’s last movie with the premiere movie outfit.

Avelino’s recent post, “maexperience nga hindi tumapos ng pelikula (how about experiencing what it’s like not to finish a film)” was viewed as a subtle swipe at Star Cinema after its announcement that it decided to move the KimPau movie, My Love Will Make You Disappear, to a later playdate. Originally scheduled on 12 February, the movie will hit cinemas worldwide on 26 March instead.

It also didn’t help that Avelino and Chiu did unfollow Star Cinema on Instagram.  That action was clearly seen by the executives as a rebellious act.

So, why sanction Avelino only?

It’s because he’s not a homegrown talent of ABS-CBN as he was formerly a StarStruck discovery, unlike Chiu who was discovered through the network’s reality show Pinoy Big Brother.

Actually, Avelino is wading into untested waters now that he left his former talent management.

Avelino no longer has a powerful backer in the network.

Mark Herras’ gay bar performance draws mix reactions

Actor Mark Herras caused a stir on social media when it was reported that he performed as special guest in a male entertainment bar, Apollo.

Tongues wagged and eyebrows rose to stratospheric proportions when the report came out.

Strangely clad in a decent outfit of gray sweater and black pair of pants in his first production number, Herras performed some of his hit dance numbers with two decently-dressed back-up dancers.

In his second number, the actor flirted on stage by gyrating on top of a female who was seated on a chair.  Then, his flirting continued as he danced while behind her.

The second number also showed Herras in a decent outfit of white sleeveless shirt and black pants.

Initial reactions on his gay bar performance were mostly of disappointment.

“Mahina na ba ang kitaan sa showbiz kaya nag guest siya (Is it that scarce no in showbiz that he had to guest here)?” one guy said.

 “Wala na ba siyang tv shows at pati ito pinatos (Doesn’t he have TV shows anymore that he agreed to do this)?” came another comment.

But there are those who totally understood why the actor needs to do it.

“Wala ako nkkitang mali sa ginawa nia as long as wala nmn din siya inargabyadong tao! And besides, ginagawa nia ito para sa pamilya at trabaho lang, walang personalan! Nkkatawa yung mga taong kung manghusga sa mga tao di din nmn nkkaangat sa pamumuhay wagas (I don’t see anything wrong in what he did as long as he didn’t wrong anyone!  And besides he’s doing it for his family; it’s only work, nothing personal! It is funny how people judge other people but whose lives are not any better)!” one fan said.

Korina Sanchez bashed for hosting ‘Face to Face’

Is Korina Sanchez aware that while many think she is perfect to host TV 5’s afternoon reality program Face to Face Harapan, many still believe that her role as referee to warring factions in the show does not befit her?

A recent post on X (formerly Twitter) by Alt Kapuso showed a recent episode between a woman and an old gender-bender engaged in a word war.

“KUNG ANO ANO NA LANG PINAGHOHOHOST NI KORINA BWAHAHAHA (Seems Korina is hosting practically anything),” the Twitter handler captioned.

The post generated negative reactions for Sanchez.

“Inferrr naging premium ang Face to Face dahil kay Ateng... yun nga lng parang naging cheap sya kalocca (To be fair, Face to Face was upgraded because of her...but then it seems to have cheapened her, so crazy),” the Twitter handler captioned.

“Daming shows sa iba ibang network pra ung estado tuloi nya bilang veteran broadcaster di n namaintain (She has so many shows in different networks, seems like her stature as a  veteran broadcaster was not maintained).”

“Desperada na si Koring hahaha (She seems desperate).”
