Aljur Abrenica confirms rekindled relationship with Kylie Padilla As Posted on PEP.ph

D

alawang taon at apat na buwan pagkatapos nilang maghiwalay, kumpirmadong nagkabalikan na sina Aljur Abrenica, 26, at Kylie Padilla, 23.

“We keep our connection together.

Ito ang inamin ng Kapuso actor sa eksklusibong panayam sa kanya ng PEP. ph (Philippine Entertainment Portal) noong November 4, na ginanap sa newly-renovated 'New York-style loft' ni Aljur sa Quezon City.

Pagkatapos nilang mag-break, nagkaroon ng dalawang karelasyon si Kylie.

Panimula ng aktor, kahit naghiwalay sila noon ni Kylie ay hindi nawala ang kanyang pagmamahal sa dalagang anak ni Robin Padilla. Kaya raw nanatili siyang single sa panahong magkahiwalay sila. Pahayag ni Aljur, na medyo may halong kilig, “Hindi naman siya [pagmamahal] nawala.

“Even sa dalawang taon na hindi kami nagkikita, open yung connection namin sa isa’t isa.”

Isa rito ang pinsan ni Rhian Ramos na si Matt Henares; ang isa pa ay isang young actor na na-link noon sa aktres ngunit hindi nila inamin sa publiko na naging sila. Pero hindi raw ito naging problema kay Aljur. Sa katunayan nga raw, naging sumbungan pa rin siya ni Kylie sa mga naging problema nito sa buhay at kanyang love life.

Lahad ni Aljur, “What happened sa aming dalawa kasi, nung kami ni Kylie before, we’re full of ourselves. “Yung sentro ng mundo ay nasa amin lang. “And limited yung time namin, so busy, may kanya-kanya kaming trabaho. “And pag nagkikita kami, kami lang. “In short, hindi kami nagkaroon ng panahon para mag-grow. “And then, exactly, mga bata pa kami nun.” Dagdag niya, “We loved each other, pero hindi namin siya alam i-treat maturely, kung ano talaga yung essence ng isang relasyon, yung pagmamahalan. “So, it was my decision to work it off. So, nag-break kami. “And then, dun kami nagkaroon ng panahon para makapag-isip. “Nung nagkahiwalay na kami after nun, we still see each other, open yung connection namin sa isa’t isa. “Kinukuwentuhan namin ang isa’t isa 'coz we’re best friends.” REKINDLED LOVE LIFE. Umugong ang balitang nagkabalikan sila nang mag-post si Aljur sa Instagram noong October 31, ng larawan nila ni Kylie habang nagbabakasyon sa Japan. Tanong ng PEP: Kailan nagsimula ang panibagong yugto ng kanilang love story? Tugon ni Aljur, “Hindi namin siya napagusapan, e. “Yung pagmamahal, nawala.

want to see some things other than kaming dalawa lang. “Recently lang, months ago... “Continuous yung pagkikita namin, but this time, naramdaman ko sa sarili ko, bilang isang lalaki. “I really took time na wala talaga akong naging karelasyon, na-realize ko sa sarili ko na ‘I love this girl.’ “Hindi nawala, and naramdaman ko rin sa kanya na yun yung panahon na pinaka kailangan niya ako. Dahil sa mga nangyayari sa buhay naming dalawa.”

Sabi ni Aljur, “Now that we’re together, we just realized how much we miss each other.” GREAT LOVE? Hindi maiwasang natitigil minsan ang aming panayam dahil ramdam talaga kay Aljur ang kilig at inspirasyon. Masasabi ba niyang si Kylie talaga ang kanyang 'great love'? Pagsang-ayon ng binata, “If that’s the term, yes. “But for me, it’s beyond words, hindi ko ma-describe.

Pag-amin pa ng Kapuso hunk, “September [2016], nagkabalikan na kami.”

“And I’m trying my best na masabi ko… that I put into words yung naramdaman ko.”

Niligawan ba niya ulit si Kylie?

Malaki ba ang naiambag ni Kylie sa kanyang pagkatao sa ngayon?

Ayon kay Aljur, “We don’t verbalize it, but we always do like that… never naman nawala. “Nandun pa rin yung pagmamahal. So, hindi siya nawala.” Walang pag-uusap na 'Sige, tayo na ulit'? “Hindi siya ganun kaagad, e. “Matagal din kaming nagkikita, paulitulit. “Madalas kaming nagkita sa mga coffee shops, talked for hours. “Habang nag-uusap kami, na-realize namin na love is there. It’s always there, and it’s time. “Now is the right time para officially makapagbalikan [kami].” Ano ang mga realization nila ngayong nag-level up na sila in terms of maturity?

Sagot ni Aljur, “Masasabi kong oo. “Pero hindi lang dahil sa kanya mismo, dala na rin ng panahon ng pag-iisa, panahon ng pagmumuni-muni, panahon na talagang pinili mong mahanap ulit yung sarili mo. “At sa paghahanap na yun, nahanap ko ulit siya.” Ano ang maaari niyang maipangako kay Kylie sa kanilang mala-‘love is lovelier the second time around’ love story? Seryosong pahayag ni Aljur, “Ang pangako kasi [baka hindi mapanindigan]... “Ang gusto ko sabihin sa kanya... “Ang gusto ko lang naman, Kylie, makasama kang mag-grow, spiritually, emotionally, physically, sa lahat ng aspeto ng buhay. “Sa lahat ng pinagdaanan, na-realize ko

na masaya akong kasama ka. “Anuman ang mga nangyari dati, mga bata pa tayo noon. “Ngayon, I think mas nakakaintindi na tayo, handa na ako. “It’s not gonna be easy. “What I can promise is… hanggang sa tumanda kami, hindi kami tatanda. “Tatanda lang kami physically, but by heart, hindi.'” HOPES TO TALK TO ROBIN. Isa sa mga nagalit noon dahil sa mga naglabasang balita ng kanilang hiwalayan ay ang ama ni Kylie na si Robin Padilla. Naiintindihan daw ni Aljur ang naging himutok ni Robin. Sabi ng StarStruck alumnus, “Every father… is normal ‘yan. “Normal ‘yan sa mga tatay to be always protective sa mga princesses nila. “And I respect that kay Tito Robin. “And nandito tayo ngayon, ginagawa yung interview, and I humble myself. “And whatever happened before, it’s the past. “And I'm presenting myself again, na I have to take care of his daughter. “And whatever me and Kylie agreed, we realized how much we miss and love each other. “Two years na tiniis ko yun. Hindi naman siya talaga nawala. “There’s a lot of realizations, so I’m excited na mabigyan kami [ni Robin] ng pagkakataon na makapag-usap.”

Pacman Reclaims WBO Welter Title VS. Jessie Vargas

37

-year-old Senator Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao dethroned World Boxing Organization champion 27-year-old Jessie Vargas by unanimous decision.

Pacman wins a unanimous decision by scores of 114113, 118-109 and 118-109. Jinkee Pacquiao posted a photo with her husband and writes on her Facebook account, "Congratulations my babe! God is good always. I thank the Lord for an answered prayer, for granting us the victory. Indeed, we are victorious through Him who loved us! I love you i rejoice with you. God is awesome! #afterthefight#Godisgoodandgreat#glorytoGod#grateful" In an article posted on philboxing.com by Eddie Alinea, states: "The Filipino southpaw, also known as Pambansang Kamao, dropped Vargas to the seat of his pants with a left counter in the second round and went on to reclaim the 147-pound belt he wore twice before." "From there, Pacquiao knew he had Vargas's number, beating him to the punch in all of the succeeding rounds except in four of the 12-round collision, hitting him harder more often." 8

Pacquiao may have easily handled Vargas but he too walked away with a cut that needed 16 stitches to close. In an interview with Stephen A. Smith as posted theguardian. com, Pacquiao shares, “My aim every round was to knock him out.” Adding, "I feel happy." He continued, “After this I’m going back to Philippines to go work. But for the next fight, I’ll talk to Bob.” Asked on whether he would fight with Crawford or Mayweather, the first-ever senator to have won a boxing title says, "Whoever the people want me to fight,” he says. “I’m not picking an opponent or choosing anything."

Filipino Star Magazine. Vancouver Edition. November, 2016

In another news, an article by George Gigney posted on boxingnewsonline. net writes, "Top five next opponents for Manny Pacquiao". Enumerated as follows: 5. Keith Thurman vs Danny Garcia winner These two unbeaten welterweight world champions are set to meet in March, provided Garcia gets past unfancied Samuel Vargas this weekend. The winner would then be a prime candidate for Pacquiao and arguably his biggest threat at 147lbs. However, the timelines are unlikely to match as Pacquiao would not wait around that long to fight the Thurman-Garcia winner. 4. Kell Brook Another welterweight champion, IBF title-holder Brook is coming off of a loss to Gennady Golovkin up at middleweight. Getting back to welter would be a struggle for Brook, but he insists he can do it for the big fights, and they don’t get much bigger than Pacquiao. Brook’s brave showing against ‘GGG’ has seen his stock rise and the enormity of the event has enhanced his profile. 3. Vasyl Lomachenko Pacquiao has reportedly claimed he could drop to 135lbs and meet fellow pound-for-pound entrant Lomachenko. The fight would pit two of the sport’s most elite operators against each other and would be a major test for both. 2. Floyd Mayweather You would watch a rematch. Even though their first encounter was dull, a rematch between these two superstars is still the biggest event that can be made in boxing right now. Floyd was ringside for Pacquiao’s win over Jessie Vargas, sparking speculation that the pair could fight once again. 1. Terence Crawford Crawford has been tipped for stardom for a while now, and a changing of the guard fight against promotional stablemate Pacquiao is high up on a lot of fight fans’ wish lists. Crawford has already proven himself one of the best fighters in the world but a win over a living legend would turn him into a pay-per-view star.

Macky Mathay confirms relationship with Sunshine Cruz: “Yes, yes, yes, yes.” As Posted on PEP.ph

makapagsabi kung magpapainterview siya sa amin.

N

agsimula sa isang ‘Hi’ sa direct messaging sa Instagram ang love story nina Ismael 'Macky' Mathay IV at Sunshine Cruz. Ito ang kuwento ni Macky sa eksklusibong panayam ng PEP. ph (Philippine Entertainment Portal), sa pamamagitan ng telepono noong October 29. Si Macky ay half-brother ng aktres na si Ara Mina, na matalik na kaibigan naman ni Sunshine. Matatandaang naging viral sa social media ang larawan ng dalawa na magka-holding hands habang naglalakad sa Bonifacio Global City, Taguig, ilang linggo na ang nakararaan. May isang source ang nagsabing ‘recently dating’ pa lang sina Sunshine at Macky. Mula nang naging viral ang larawan nilang magka-holding hands, hindi tumigil ang PEP sa paghahanap ng pagkakataong makuha ang panig nina Macky, 37, at Sunshine, 39. Ngunit naging mailap ang dalawa na bigyan kami ng interview. HOW IT STARTED. Noong October 28, may nakausap ang PEP na isang source na nagbigay sa amin ng numero ng telepono ni Macky. Nagpadala kaagad kami ng mensahe sa kanya at sumagot naman ito. Ngunit hindi pa siya

Humirit kami na baka mapagbigyan niya kami ng ilang katanungan dahil marami ang curious malaman ang totoong estado ng relasyon nila ni Sunshine. Noonf October 29, nakatanggap kami ng mensahe na handa nang ilahad ni Macky ang kanyang kuwento, at kung paano nabuo ang isang pagmamahalang aniya'y 'perfect timing.'

“And then after, I sent her my ‘Hi’ message, dinugtungan ko kaagad ng second message. “I told her that ‘I’m the brother of Hazel [Reyes], si Ara.’” Patuloy niya, “And, you know, yun nga, yun yung sinasabi ko na right timing ‘coz it so happened that she was with Ara. “Nasa Brunei sila, as in magkasama talaga sila nung natanggap niya yung message.

Habang si Macky ay hiwalay na rin sa misis niyang si Camille Farinas, anak ni Ilocos Norte Rep. Rudy Farinas. Paliwanag ni Macky tungkol sa larawan ni Sunshine, “We were on our way to watch a movie. “Hindi namin na-notice na meron palang guy that was taking [a picture]… “I guess, pag titingnan mo yung picture, talagang mukhang selfie, di ba?

Una naming inusisa kay Macky kung kailan sila nagsimulang mag-date ni Sunshine.

“So, right there and then, naitanong niya agad kay Ara na, ‘Uy, may kapatid ka bang Macky?’

Tugon niya, “Safe to say... nagdidate? Since September.”

“Yun. Siyempre wala naman akong…

“At saka meron kaming hinahabol na oras ng movie...

Paano niya nakilala si Sunshine?

“Actually, matagal na rin kaming hindi nag-uusap ni Ara before that.

“Siguro nahiya rin yung lalaki kasi, during that time, siguro hitsura namin nagmamadali.”

“But, uhm, of course, sinabi niya na, ‘Yes, may kapatid ako, bakit minessage ka niya?’

Simula noon, usap-usapan na ang diumano’y ugnayan ng dalawa.

“Parang ganun. ‘Mahiyain yun a,’ parang ginanun niya.

“I SAID I LOVE YOU FIRST TO SUNSHINE.” Kasunod nito, diretso naming tinanong si Macky kung sila na ba ni Sunshine.

Ayon kay Macky, “Well, actually, ‘yan yung sinasabi ko, e. “I will actually tell you the truth kasi ano, e, hindi naman ako showbiz. “Hindi naman ako artista, di ba? So, hindi na ako magpaliguyligoy. “Actually, I am… natutuwa ako, I feel happy, I guess right timing kasi lahat, e. “Kasi, alam mo, if it happened in a different situation or something, siguro hindi kami na-develop, parang ganun. “Well, actually, it’s as simple as I sent her a direct message on Instagram. Ganun kasimple. “Totoo yun. I sent her a direct message sa Instagram, saying ‘Hi.’

“Yun yung rason kung bakit kami nagsimulang mag-usap.” THE VIRAL PHOTO. Unang pumutok ang tungkol sa relasyon nina Macky at Sunshine nang mai-upload ng isang netizen sa Facebook ang larawan nilang magka-holding hands habang tumatawid sa isang pedestrian lane sa Bonifacio Global City. Ayon pa sa netizen, akala raw niya ay si Cesar Montano ang kasama ni Sunshine. Si Cesar ang estranged husband ng aktres.

www.filipinostarmagazine.com

“Siguro nahiyang magpa-picture kasi nasa kalagitnaan nga ng pagtawid.

Hindi naman siya nag-atubiling aminin ang totoong estado ng relasyon nila ng aktres. Pag-amin ni Macky, “Yes.” Dugtong pa niya, “Yes. Yes. Yes. Gusto mo sa ibang dialect pa? Yes. Oo.” Dito na ikinuwento ni Macky kung paano niya napasagot si Sunshine. Sabi niya, “Alam mo, right from

the start naman, sinabi ko sa kanya, hindi nga ako showbiz, hindi nga ako artista, though kapatid ko si Ara. “Pero alam mo, darating din yung time na talagang lalabas at lalabas. “Sabi ko, I guess, just like how we started, right timing for everything naman talaga, e, di ba? “And I assured her, 'Ever since from the start, na pag lumabas, e, hindi kita idi-deny ‘coz you make me so happy. Tsaka mahal kita.'” Kailan siya sinagot ni Sunshine? Natatawang sagot ni Macky sa amin, “Ang dami mo na atang tanong, a!” Pero dugtong din niya, “Actually, it was me who said 'I love you' first.

“Sinabi ko sa kanya that ‘I love you.’

Sinagot daw ni Sunshine si Macky noong September 18.

“Sabi ko, ‘Before I finally said I love you, matagal kong pinagisipan. Kasi since matagal ka nang hindi nagka-relationship, baka hindi ka pa handa.

VERY COMFORTABLE WITH EACH OTHER. Matapos na naging pormal ang kanilang relasyon, anu-ano na ang mga napag-uusapan nila?

“'I don’t want to rush you into anything,’ sabi ko. ‘Kasi nararamdaman ko naman para sa 'yo ay makakapaghintay naman.’

Saad ni Macky, “Sobra na kaming comfortable sa isa’t isa, e, even before the ‘I love you’s.’

“Sabi ko, ‘I can wait, I can wait.’ “But still, I decided to tell her that I love her, kasi mahal ko na siya, e. “Ayoko namang maging hipokrito sa sarili ko. Kasi, hindi na kami bata. “So, I told her that I love her. “She actually said ‘I love you too’ after a week.”

“Kaya nga sabi ko sa kanya na, 'Alam mo, kahit na mga kapamilya namin, mga kamaganak, mga kaibigan, mga close friends, parang lahat sila nagtataka na parang sobrang bilis.' “E, sabi ko, ‘Ganun talaga, bakit pipigilan?’ “Tapos, sinasabi ko kay Sunshine, ‘Everything happens so fast between the two of us, but the thing is, I love you. And puwede namang araw-araw

kitang ligawan pa rin, e.’ “Para at least, di ba, ang damidaming tao na… tsaka, yun nga, matanda na kami na ang dami nang pinagdaanan sa buhay, the two of us. [Na baka] Hindi na uli makahanap ng mamahalin. “So, bakit pipigilan mo pa yung nararamdaman mo?” Maraming mga tagahanga si Sunshine ang masaya sa napapabalitang relasyon nila ni Macky. Pati na ang estranged husband nitong si Cesar ay nagpaabot ng mensahe na masaya siya sa love life ni Sunshine. Ano ang masasabi ni Macky rito? Sagot niya, “Ako rin, happy rin ako na naging ganun yung pananaw niya.”

Sharon Cuneta pours heart out in letter to mom Elaine; says “I was never enough” for ex-bfs As Posted on PEP.ph

N

gayong araw, November 5, ginunita ni Sharon Cuneta ang second death anniversary ng kanyang yumaong ina na si Elaine Gamboa-Cuneta. Sa pamamagitan ng isang mahaba-habang post sa Facebook, nagbuhos ng emosyun ang Megastar at nagsabing miss na miss na niya ang ina pati na rin ang amang si Pablo Cuneta na yumao noong 2000. Panimula ni Sharon, "Two years ago today, November 5th, you left us. You left me. "I always think that I am now okay, that I am a big girl, and that you didn't really love me THAT much anyway, so could there really be much of a difference? "And then I always realize that I am wrong. "I miss you, Mommy ko. I still haven't gotten used to being an orphan." Sa pagpapatuloy ng kanyang sulat para sa ina, inamin ng 50-year-old actress/singer na nahihirapan pa rin itong mag-move on, at nahihirapan daw itong matulog sa gabi. "I am a Mommy, but truly, I NEED to be the baby girl of my Mommy and Daddy. But both of you had been called home.

or how someone in showbiz was rude to me, and how you would remind me to always remember to just let them be, because maybe they weren't taught well by their parents like I was. "Sometimes I cry because I remember I want to buy something we both liked to eat together or whatever it is we used to share-and just as I would start to get my phone, I would remember that you would never again be on the other side of the line." Patuloy pa nito, "I am sorry for being sassy sometimes when you were still around [I had a strong Mommy, after all. But even then.] "I am sorry for always thinking of how I thought you made me feel that I was never good enough for you." Kalauna'y pinangalanan ni Sharon ang mga dati nitong boyfriend, kabilang sina Gabby Concepcion, Richard Gomez, at Robin Padilla, na naging sanhi ng heartbreaks nito. Aniya, "I think every time I had my

"And maybe that is why I often cannot sleep well, that I often feel lost nowadays, that I find things in my past to hold on to even if I should have let go long ago." MOM'S LOVE ADVICE. Si Mommy Elaine raw ang naging takbuhan ni Sharon sa tuwing kailangan niya ng advice tungkol sa "unfaithful boyfriend or the husband then." "I guess I want to go back to how things were. When Daddy seemed to be able to solve everyone's problems. "When I could talk to you about an unfaithful boyfriend [or the husband then], 14

heartbroken, I would trace it back to feeling rejected by you and sometimes act in public like I was on top of the world when deep inside me, I felt only worthless. "Heck, I was never enough for Gabby, or Richard, or Robin, or whoever else." Umaasa si Sharon na hindi na ito ulit mangyari sa kanya at sa asawang si Senator Kiko Pangilinan. Saad ng Kapamilya star, "I hope that I will always be enough for Kiko. Good enough. The only one he'll ever need. Just ENOUGH." "I AM SORRY, MOMMY." Marami ring inihingi ng tawad si Sharon sa kanyang ina. May mga pagkakataon raw kasi na naramdaman ni Mommy Elaine na mas naging matimbang ang pagmamahal ni Sharon sa yumaong ama. Aniya, "I am sorry, Mommy. I am sorry for making you feel also that I loved Daddy more than you. Perhaps it was my way of getting back at you. But you and I know I also truly loved him. He was crazy about his little girl after all. "I am sorry for everything I ever did or said to hurt you, whether intentionally or not. I am just sorry. Because now I need my Mommy and she isn't there. Not even for me to be able to hug as I say 'I am so sorry' to her. "I love you very much, Mama. I miss you more than I ever thought I would." Inilista na rin ni Sharon ang lahat ng bagay na nami-miss nito sa ina kabilang ang pagbibigay nito ng advice at maging ang amoy ng pabango nito.

'Spooting nga' like my eldest!]. In your wheelchair. With your bag. And your jewellery. And I miss you." At hanggang sa ngayon, hindi pa raw makapagluto ang Megastar dahil sa napakaraming memories nila ng ina sa kitchen. Ani Sharon, "I haven't cooked for two Christmases and two New Year's Eves now, Mommy. It just wasn't the same knowing you weren't coming anyway. "I did cook on one occasion, just to try to cook again. My goodness, all my life the kitchen was our place together. "From the time I was little and would try to help in any way I could. Even accidentally wounding a finger while trying to slice veggies like you. It's just not the same." Sa pagtatapos, ipinangako ni Sharon sa yumaong ina na hindi niya ito makakalimutan at ipinahayag ang kanyang pagmamahal dito. "I miss you, Mommy ko. I just know already that I won't be able to sleep tonight. I will think of you. I will pray to God to let you give me a tight hug tonight and perhaps even sleep beside me, even for a little while." Dugtong pa nito, "I love you so much. Like never before. I miss you, Mommy ko. I love you. I will always love you and think of you. Forever. Your baby, Shasha."

onths after his father was elected as president, Sebastian “Baste” Duterte has consistently shied away from the limelight.

pagiging ‘son of the president’ niya sa magandang paraan.”

But YES! Magazine’s managing editor Anna Pingol had the opportunity to spend a day with Baste at the place where he is most comfortable living in — his hometown, Davao City.

Aside from witnessing Baste’s first foray into doing an endorsement shoot, one of the highlights of the day was the chance to see how the elusive surfer/Internet heartthrob/presidential son has remained laid-back and unassuming to this day.

It was a day of firsts for the ever-elusive presidential son, who agreed to do an endorsement shoot for the first time.

He even took the time to mingle with the Lumad girls after a long day’s work.

Baste, according to his talent manager Betchay Vidanes, is not after the big bucks.

An excerpt from YES! Magazine’s cover story partly read: “When the shoot is over, he takes off his shirt and puts on the sando that he was wearing when he arrived earlier in the day.

An accidental celebrity, Baste only approved of the deal with the topical analgesic brand because it aims to “extend real help” to indigenous people in Mindanao. “Gusto niya ‘yong mga orphans, itong mga Lumad. May mga gusto siyang i-focus na gano’n. The direction na talagang tinatahak namin, more on the merong value, merong worth ‘yong ginagawa niya. “Gusto

“Then he chooses a spot on the floor and settles there… “One by one, the Lumad girls go to Baste and join him on the floor until they form a small circle… “At one point, he asks jokingly if any of the girls want to be a star. Using his lips to point jokingly in Betchay’s direction, he says: ‘Diyan, o, manager ni Robin Padilla.” 15

MTRCB Chairman Toto Villareal denies selective censorship with Till I Met You love scene As Posted on PEP.ph

M

ovie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB) Chairman Toto Villareal denied the “selective censorship” allegation in the the regulatory board’s upcoming meeting with the top executives of ABS-CBN primetime series Till I Met You. Addressing the issue, Atty. Villareal said, “First of all, there’s no more censorship. “Ang censorship, we won’t even review you, we’ll just ban you. That’s no more. “We ask our friends from the media to help explain that. “We just classify. “And it’s also a matter of informing the public, especially parents, how they will be able to determine the type of entertainment their children will see.” This is in relation to the teleserye’s October 25 episode that showcased a love scene of James Reid and Nadine Lustre inside a car. As it happened, some avid JaDine fans expressed their protest by tweeting “no to selective censorship” via Twitter. In an interview with PEP.ph (Philippine Entertainment Portal), Atty. Villareal

20

COMPLAINTS. Nevertheless, Atty. Villareal stressed the need for a dialogue so that Till I Met You can also “present its side” with regard to the complaints against the show's October 25 episode, as well as another episode that allegedly contained “sexuallycharged bath-related scene.” He said, “Matter of factly, we mentioned [in our letter to Till I Met You execs] that in that particular episode, there are those who have written us without making any prejudgment on our part, vis-a-vis the program, we said that there are those who are a bit affected by the scene, saying that it may be unfit for TV…

explained that MTRCB’s role is not to “play a policeman” but to help empower TV programs, as in the case of Till I Met You.

“Meron ding feedback, when eventually the protagonist got married, there was also the bathtub scene.

He added, “For the conference next, we see it as more of a dialogue.

“And then dialogue about also allegedly disassociating sex with the institution of marriage.

“Notwithstanding the fact that we have received through email, social media, [and by] monitoring conventional media certain reactions to several scenes.” TILL I MET YOU'S SELF-REGULATION. The MTRCB chair also pointed out that the regulatory board “appreciated” the show’s initiative to self-regulate by putting up an SPG (Strictly Parental Guidance) advisory on its October 25 episode. “Because our records show, in fairness to TIMY [Till I Met You], for the so-called car episode, they previously wrote the MTRCB, advising us that for that particular episode, that they will impose an SPG advisory with indicators for theme and for sex. “So, in that regard, that is on our record, that’s appreciated. “The purpose of that is not so much as to get our permission but to keep us in the loop.” Atty. Villareal also acknowledged the fact that Till I Met You’s controversial car scene was aired within the prescribed timeslot for shows with more mature themes.

“It’s very healthy na mapag-usapan.” As for some netizens’ claim that other TV programs supposedly contain more sensitive content than Till I Met You’s October 25 episode, Atty. Villareal stressed that MTRCB is open to feedback from viewers. “We have a monitoring and inspection unit. “If they have complaints with certain shows, why they don’t also write us? Why don’t they send an email? “And then we can also invite us to their conference.” Atty. Villareal also said that MTRCB has a separate ad hoc committee which will be in-charge of facilitating the conference on November 10. He added, “Whenever the MTRCB releases an invitation for a conference, it is further not only to its regulatory function, but also developmental.

“The scene appeared after 9 P.M.

“Because, it is important for us to always get the side of the program, because any program is a stakeholder in this industry. We value its word on the matter.

“According to the National Council for Children’s Television, a separate government agency, their rules have prescribed that the safe harbor for children shall be from 6 A.M. to 9 P.M.”

“At the same time, we would want always to be that healthy bridge between the audience and the program — and sometimes its forgotten — from the program to the audience.”

Angelica Panganiban on friendship with Marian Rivera: “Baliw kasi. Parehas kami.” As Posted on PEP.ph

“Echosera yun, e!” Ito ang pabirong pahayag ni Angelica Panganiban patungkol sa kaibigan niyang si Marian Rivera. Kaugnay raw ito ng pangako ng Kapuso Primetime Queen na bumisita sa set ng pelikula nina Angelica at Dingdong Dantes para sa Star Cinema, ang The Unmarried Wife. Natatawang kuwento ni Angelica, “Sabi niya nung first day ng shooting, ‘Bakla, dadalaw ako diyan!’ Isasama raw niya yung anak [Baby Zia]. “Sabi ko, ‘O, magluto ka na rin, Mars.’ Sabi niya, ‘O, sure!’ “Ay, 'Day! Tapos na kami, wala, hindi ko nakita [si Marian]!” Nakapanayam ng entertainment reporters si Angelica sa presscon ng The Unmarried Wife, na ginanap sa 9501 Restaurant ng ABSCBN, noong November 3. Naroon din sa presscon ang co-stars niyang sina Dingdong at Paulo Avelino. Hirit ni Dingdong tungkol sa nakatakda sanang pagbisita ng misis niyang si Marian sa set ng naturang pelikula: “Buti pa siya [Angelica] alam niya. Ako, hindi ko alam.” Agad namang nilinaw ni Angelica na may dahilan kung bakit hindi natuloy ang pagbisita ni Marian sa set ng kanilang pelikula. “Wala, tinext ko nga. Sabi ko,

‘Ano na, ‘te? Palaka?’ Sabi naman niya, e, busy daw.” Balik-sagot ni Dingdong, hindi pa huli ang lahat para magkita sina Angelica at Marian dahil hindi pa raw tapos ang shooting ng pelikula. Sabi ng Kapuso actor, “May dalawang araw pa naman, e.” Patuloy ni Angelica, nananatili silang mabuting magkaibigan ni Marian ngayon sa kabila ng magkalabang networks ang kanilang pinagtatrabahuan. Aniya, “Opo. Baliw kasi. Parehas kami. Yun ang mga gusto ko, e. I like her!” Sa guest appearance ni Marian sa PEPtalk noong December 2014, matatandaang naikuwento ng Kapuso actress na madali niyang nakagaanan ng loob si Angelica. Matatandaan ding isa si Angelica sa bisita sa bridal shower ni Marian noon. www.filipinostarmagazine.com

Brad Pitt Spotted for the First Time Following Angelina Jolie Divorce

B

rad Pitt has stepped out in public for the first time following his divorce from Angelina Jolie.

The actor attended a private screening of the upcoming and highly-acclaimed film Moonlight, for which his production company, Plan B, is listed as one of the executive producers. The event was held in Los Angeles, and he was joined by close pal, Julia Roberts. The pair hugged and smiled for several photos before the event. The outing marks the first time Pitt has been photographed following the

announcement of his divorce from Jolie in September. The main concern following the split has been their six children: Maddox JoliePitt, 15, Pax Jolie-Pitt, 12, Zahara Jolie-Pitt, 11, Shiloh Jolie-Pitt, 10, and twins Knox Jolie-Pitt and Vivienne Jolie-Pitt, 8. In fact, on Monday, news broke that the pair had reached a custody agreement. Angelina Jolie & Brad Pitt's Kids Through the Years E! News confirmed their children will remain in Jolie's custody—they are currently living with her at her home in Malibu— while Pitt will continue to see visitations in conjunction with a therapist. The custody news comes a few days after the actor filed for joint custody of their children last week—a response to Jolie asking for sole custody in the divorce.

HOllywood buzz 22

www.filipinostarmagazine.com

Meanwhile, the actor has been under investigation in recent weeks over a midair altercation on a private aircraft in mid-September with their eldest son, Maddox. The alleged incident led to an anonymous call being placed with the L.A. County Department of Children and Family Services over claims Pitt had been physically and verbally abusive towards Maddox. At the time, a source close to the actor told E! News he "did not commit any abuse of his children" and has been "cooperating fully" to do what's in the best interest of his children. Brad has seen his kids twice since the investigation began, but only saw Maddox for the first time just recently. According to a source, the teen was "mad at his dad" before they finally came together during a therapy session. Another insider told us the actor has been eager to continue seeing the kids and "work out an arrangement that is best for them; he wants to work things out privately and amicably." We also learned Jolie doesn't intend for the current custody situation to remain permanent. We're told she only believes it's what's necessary right now and knows she and Pitt will eventually need to co-parent together in the future. As Posted on eonline.com

he 32-year-old’s relationship with Suits actress Meghan Markle was confirmed in a statement released by Kensington Palace. The statement, which Prince Harry acknowledges is “unusual,” was issued to prevent any further damage being done to Markle or those surrounding her. In the statement, Prince Harry comes to the defense of his girlfriend after

the United States. We've always talked a lot about the importance of the family and the love we have for our children," Bublé and Lopilato wrote. "Luisana and I are going to spend all our time and attention to help Noah to get better, by suspending our professional activities for now." Bublé and Lopilato went on to ask fans to pray for their son and respect the family's privacy.

Kitchen Alchemist’s FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH COLLAGEN www.draxe.com and renewalliance.com

"Let food be thy medicine..." -Hippocates What is collagen? "Collagen is the most abundant protein in our bodies. It’s found in our muscles, bones, skin and tendons and is referrred to as the 'glue' that helps hold the body together. It also gives our skin strength and elasticity, and helps replace dead skin cells." Adding, "Collagen is also full of conditional amino acids like arginine, glutamine, glycine and proline. These are amino acids that, under normal circumstances, are produced by your body." "However, when you’re sick, under stress or otherwise unhealthy, your body may not be able to produce enough of these amino acids on its own. It needs help from outside sources (your diet or supplements) to get its fill." "And these 'nonessential' amino acids are actually pretty darn important. Proline and glycine, in particular, play a major role in ensuring your body’s running smoothly." "Proline makes up almost 15 percent of collagen. It also helps your artery walls release fat buildup in the bloodstream, shrinking the fat in the arteries and minimizing fat accumulation. Healthy arteries equal a healthy heart!" "Glycine also makes up a major portion of collagen. And while size-wise it’s the smallest amino acid, big things come in small packages, and glycine is no exception." 24

"To ensure our cells function properly, it helps build healthy DNA strands. It’s also one of three amino acids that form creatine, which promotes healthy muscle growth and boosts energy production during workouts."

Why do we need collagen? As we age, our body's collagen production naturally slows down. It is easy to tell as it can be seen through the sagging skin, wrinkles and weaker cartilage in our joints. Our body's collagen production can further more be slowed down when we smoke, expose ourselves to sun and eat food that are high in sugar.

What are the sources of collagen? Collagen supplements and skincare products are from: bovine (cows), porcine (pigs), chicken collagen and fish (marine) collagen. As per renewalliance.com, "Collagen from cows, pigs and chickens are extracted from their skin, tendons and cartilage. They are mainly Type II collagen (for joints and tendons) and very little Type I." "Fish collagen, also known as ‘marine collagen’, is extracted from either the meat or scales of cold sea fish and is primarily Type I and Type III collagen."

Bovine VS fish collagen? "Fish collagen has been shown to have superior 'bioavailability': the rate at which it is absorbed into the blood stream through our intestinal wall. This means that fish (marine) collagen enters the bloodstream more quickly than other types of collagen, www.filipinostarmagazine.com

so it is the best source of collagen for your skin." "In fact, fish (marine) collagen is up to 1.5 times more absorbent than bovine, porcine or chicken collagen, because of its optimum (low) molecular weight. Fish (marine) collagen is also the right type of collagen (Type I&III) needed for the building blocks of our skin." "Because Marine Collagen is extracted from fish, it is free from Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE) ('Mad Cow Disease'), Hoof-and-Mouth disease and Bird Viruses."

Draxe.com gave out Top 7 Collagen benefits, as follows: 1. Skin and Hair As we age, collagen production declines — it’s happening as you read this! You’ll see notice it physically: looser skin, more wrinkles and less elasticity. Increasing collagen levels can help your skin look firmer, increase smoothness, and help your skin cells keep renewing and repairing normally.

2. Joints Have you ever felt like you’ve got skeleton legs? Yup, that’s a loss of collagen rearing its head. That’s because when we lose collagen, our tendons and ligaments start moving with less ease, leading to stiffness, swollen joints and more. Think of ingesting more collagen like greasing a creaky door hinge: It’ll help your joints move


Filipino Star Magazine. Vancouver Edition. November, 2016

more easily, reduce joint pain and even reduce the risk of joint deterioration. (1, 2, 3). A recent study even found that collagen is an effective treatment for treating osteoarthritis and other joint disorders.

3. Leaky Gut If you suffer from leaky gut syndrome, a condition where bad-for-you toxins are able to pass through your digestive tract, collagen can be super-helpful. It’ll help break down proteins and soothe your gut’s lining, healing damaged cell walls and infusing it with healing amino acids. It will also help absorb water, keeping things moving freely in the digestive tract.

4. Boosts Metabolism & Energy A boost in collagen can increase your metabolism. Gylcine, found

in collagen, helps pump sugar into your body’s tissue to increase energy levels. It also helps in muscle development — and muscles burn more calories than fat. Combine any supplementation with vitamin C to ensure your body can convert the collagen into a useable protein that can begin to restore the source or your energy and vitality.

5. Strengthens Nails & Teeth Ever had peeling and splitting nails? Well, a lack of collagen could be to blame. Collagen protein is also the building block of your fingernails and teeth as well! Adding collagen into your diet regimen can help keep your nails strong and your teeth healthy!

6. Detox If you’re looking to detox, collagen is extremely helpful. That’s

www.filipinostarmagazine.com

because glycine helps minimize damage your liver experiences when it absorbs foreign substances that shouldn’t be passing through it. One of the easiest ways to cleanse your liver is with a bone broth fast; I often recommend a three-day bone broth detox to rapidly repair leaky gut. It’ll help rid your body of chemicals and “reset” your gut.

7. Reduce Cellulite/Stress Marks When skin loses its elasticity as a result of decreased collagen, there’s another side effect: more visible cellulite! Because your skin is now thinner, cellulite becomes more evident — no more hiding what’s happening below the surface. Improving your skin’s elasticity through collagen will help reduce that dimpling on your skin.

november HOROSCOPE ASTROTWINS, ASTROLOGY FORECAST Source: pilipino-express.com Hindi mahirap para sa iyo ang maging mabuti at mapagbigay sa kapuwa. Ang ugali mong iyan ang dahilan kung bakit marami kang kaibigan. Ipagpatuloy mo ang pagiging matulungin dahil babalik sa iyo nang maraming ulit ang kabutihang taglay mo.

Mas mabuti kung palaging bukas ang komunikasyon sa pagitan mo at mga malalapit sa iyo – pamilya o kaibigan. Mas magiging masaya ang pagsasama ninyo dahil mawawala ang hulaan at mga “akala” – mas magiging tapat kayo sa isa’t isa.

Wala kang tigil sa pagtatanong at pagsasaliksik sa katotohanan tungkol sa iyong buhay. Sigurado ka bang pag nakita mo ang hinahanap ay magiging masaya ka na? Kung nararamdaman mong may ayaw sumagot sa iyo, hayaan mo na.

Ngayon Nobyembre, buksan mo ang iyong isip sa isang kaibigan na may gustong ipagtatapat sa iyo. Pakinggan mo siya. Kailangan niya ng kaibigan na uunawain siya. Maaari din namang ikaw ang may dapat ipagtapat. Huwag mong pigilin ang damdamin.

Sabi nga, mangarap ka na nang mangarap dahil libre naman ito. Pero, kung palagi na lang pangarap na walang kasamang aksyon, sinasayang mo lang ang buhay mo. Mangarap ka nang puwede mong gawing katotohanan at nang mapakinabangan mo.

Ayusin mo ang relasyon mo sa mga tao na wala namang ginawang masama sa iyo. Nagtampo ka lang noon dahil hindi sila umayon sa gusto mo. Kailangan mong tanggapin na kahit hindi parepareho ang opinion ninyo, hindi iyon dahilan upang magkagalit.

Sa trabaho o a lugar na pangkabuhayan, may mga pagbabagong dapat gawin bago matapos ang taon. Maaaring maapektuhan ka nito sa mabuti o sa hindi gaanong mabuting paraan. Paghandaan mo ang pagbabagong darating.

Katwiran mo: “Pinaghirapan ko, pera ko, kaya kong bilhin ang gusto ko.” Tama ka. Bakit mo titiisin ang sarili mo kung kaya mo namang bilhin ang isang bagay? Pero, hinay-hinay ka lang. Magulo ang ekonomiya at hindi ka sigurado kung lagi kang may trabaho.

Sabi nga, ang nagsasabi ng tapat ay nagsasama nang maluwat. Kung nagtapat na sa iyo, tanggapin mo ang limitasyon niya, tao lang siya tulad mo. Pilitin mong pagbutihin ang relasyon mo sa isang tao o mga tao na nagmamalasakit sa iyo. Buksan mo ang puso mo.

Mataas ang pamantayan mo para sa sarili mo. Gayon din ang pamantayan na ginagamit mo sa pamilya. Iyon ang dahilan kung bakit lagi silang handa sa anumang hamon ng buhay. Pero minsan, kailangang babaaan mo ito dahil naistress sila sa iyo.

Iwasan mo ang palaging sariling kapakanan mo lang ang iniintindi. Mararamdaman mo ang kakaibang kaligayahan kapag may natulungan ka na wala kang hinihintay na kapalit. Sa pag-intindi mo sa iba, baka makilala mo na ang nakalaan sa iyo.

Mahilig ka sa magagandang bagay. Nakikita naman ito sa mga gamit mo. Kaya lang, nagiging dahilan ito para kainggitan ka ng ibang tao. Akala nila ay lumalangoy ka sa salapi. Iwasan mo ang mag-display ng magagarang gamit dahil baka mitsa ito ng kapahamakan.

Popular food sources of collagen include broth and stews from animal bones such as beef, chicken and pork. Gelatin, used mostly as a dessert, is also collagen, as well as the more exotic soups in Asia such as bird's nest and shark's fin soup.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS What is functional food? A functional food is a food given an addition function, often one that is related to the promotion of health or the prevention of disease, by adding new ingredients or more of existing ingredients. Some examples offunctional food includes yogurt with probiotic, and Elan’s Fountain of Youth line of foods containing collagen

How many grams of pure collagen protein should I eat? The average man needs to ingest 56 grams of protein daily and the average woman, around 46 grams. The body, however, can only fully absorb about 10 grams of protein per hours. It is recommended that 5g-15g of collagen protein be taken daily.

What are the side-effects of ingesting collagen? Our collagen peptides are manufactured following ISO (9001 – 2000) standards. Collagen is a hypoallergenic food that is tasteless and odorless. The effects through inges-tion include hair regrowth, youthful skin, relief from joint pain, lifting of the breasts and improved eyesight.

Is it safe to take collagen? Yes. It is a natural supplement derived from carefully selected natural ingredients. Col-lagen has long been used all over the world in food and medicine. The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has classified gelatin, from which collagen peptide is pre-pared, as a substance that is “generally recognized as safe” (GRAS). Furthermore, the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) and World Health Organization (WHO) have reported that there is no need to specify a limit for the daily intake of collagen.
