Beauty: "Naubos English ko sa Sundance." TVJ to stay in Eat Bulaga, remain to be Dabarkads

Kapuso actress Beauty Gonzalez is excited about her upcoming international project, which she hopes will push through this year. She shared that attending the Sundance Film Festival in Utah last January was a great opportunity for her to network with producers and even see Hollywood stars like Anne Hathaway and Dakota Johnson.

During the press launch of a beauty brand that she endorses, Beauty talked about her experience at Sundance and hinted at her upcoming project. She mentioned that she will be working abroad and that the movie she worked on was already bought by Amazon, with a release date in July or June.

What makes her project even more special for her is that it will be shot in the same house that was featured in the classic Filipino World War II movie "Oro Plata Mata." Beauty is a collector of Philippine antiques and contemporary arts and loves being the caretaker of her country's history.

The actress is married to art curator Norman Crisologo, and she jokingly shared that attending Sundance left her speechless.

"Naubos 'yung English ko doon sa interview sa Sundance."

Mayor Bullet Jalosjos of Dapitan, who is also the Chief Finance Officer of TAPE Inc., the production company behind the Philippines' longestrunning noontime variety show, "Eat Bulaga," confirmed that the show's mainstays Tito Sotto, Vic Sotto, and Joey de Leon (TVJ) will continue to host the program despite undergoing a "rebonding" process. In an interview with Boy Abunda, Jalosjos addressed the rumors about the Jalosjos family's takeover of the production company.

Jalosjos clarified that there was no takeover, and the Jalosjos family had always been the major stockholder of the company. He explained that Tony Tuviera, the show's producer, had retired last March. Jalosjos's father, Romeo Jalosjos, had asked Tuviera to stay longer, but Tuviera decided to step down, which Romeo agreed to. Jalosjos further noted that he and his sister Soraya had been on the board of directors for around four years but did not actively participate in the company's affairs until now. Jalosjos emphasized that the show's "rebonding" involves the family's involvement in the show and the company, immersing themselves in the show's operations. He admitted that they had a difficult time building relationships and earning the production's trust at first. However, TVJ and Tuviera guided and assisted them in their journey as the board of the company.
