Sen. Manny Pacquiao admits to using illegal drugs during his youth As Posted on PEP.ph
N
akaranas din siyang gumamit ng iba't ibang ipinagbabawal na gamot noong kabataan niya si Senator Manny Pacquiao. Ngunit napagtanto raw niya ang masamang naidudulot nito sa katawan. Inamin ng Pambansang Kamao ang paggamit ng marijuana, shabu, at cocaine noong siya'y teenager at bago nakilala at sumikat bilang boxer. “I’ve tried drugs before and then I realized it’s not good for the body. I accept that, I cannot deny it,” pag-amin ni Pacquiao sa interview ng GMA News and Public Affairs program na News To Go noong September 29.
Ngayon, isa ang mambabatas sa mga sumusuporta sa kampanya ni President Rodrigo Duterte laban sa ilegal droga sa bansa. “That’s before. That’s how I strongly support the President, how he fights this illegal drugs.” Dinepensahan din ni Pacquiao ang Pangulo sa isyu ng pagpatay sa mga inaakusahang pusher at user ng ilegal na droga. Si Pacquiao rin ang nagmosyon na palitan si Senator Leila De Lima bilang chairperson sa imbestigasyon ng Senado sa extrajudicial killings.

Sa press conference ng upcoming movie ni Angel na The Third Party, kasama sina Sam Milby at Zanjoe Marudo, inusisa ang tatlong bida kung naranasan na nilang magkaroon ng third party sa kanilang relasyon at naging dahilan ng breakup nila. “Oo meron, pero kung kanino man, sa ‘kin na lang ‘yon,” maiksing sagot ni Angel. Sabi naman ni Zanjoe, wala siyang naexperience na ganoon at mutual decision daw ang pakikipag-break sa dating karelasyon. Ayon naman kay Sam, “There was a feeling na baka meron, pero there was no proof, nothing like that. “So I can’t say na meron sa past relationship, so I can’t say na meron for sure.” Dahil ang tema ng pelikula ay ang 4

Ai-Ai delas Alas indie film Area wins Special Jury Prize in 12th Eurasia International Film Fest As Posted on PEP.ph
brothels servicing thousands of lowincome men, hormonally active boys and society misfits–all taking advantage of the bargain price of sex available only at Area. One of the last remaining brothels is operated by Ben, whose family of former pimps and subversives depends on the brothel for survival. 'Hillary, one of the sex workers, keeps her life-savings to fulfill a dream to travel to the United States to find a son she said she lost during the panic caused by the eruption of Mt. Pinatubo. Her skeptical co-workers bully her by dumping on her all the clients they reject, including a freak and a penniless old man who pays with stolen appliances. 'Hillary’s world collapses when her money is stolen and Ben refuses to file charges, because the suspect is a village watchman whom Ben cannot afford to displease. The story happens during the Holy Week, when the residents of Area perform rituals of penitence to wash away their sins and be ready for another year of business as usual.'
T
he Filipino film Area earned the Special Jury Prize in the 12th Eurasia International Film Festival.
Lead stars Ai-Ai delas Alas and Allen Dizon personally attended the awarding ceremony held on September 30 in Kazakhstan. This indie film directed by Louie Ignacio competed against 12 other entries in the feature films category. Ai-Ai is cast as an aging prostitute while Allen's character runs the brothel where she works. In the trailer of the movie, Ai-Ai's character can be seen having sex with an old man. The film's title, Area, refers to an infamous location in Pampanga where mature sex 6
workers offer their services at a bargain. Ai-Ai's son Sancho is also a cast member along with Sue Prado. Hours before the awarding, Ai-Ai told PEP (Philippine Entertainment Portal) that she was moved by the praise she heard from foreigners who watched Area in Kazakhstan. The film Area is described in the Eurasia IFF as follows: 'A short distance from the city’s redlight district is Area, a neighborhood of brothels where over-the-hill sex workers can be had for a can of sardines or even on credit. 'During its heyday, Area had up to 700 www.filipinostarmagazine.com
In a previous interview with PEP, Ai-Ai said about her character, 'Lahat naman na mga Area girls ganun, e. Wala silang inhibitions, kaya ganundin ako. Hindi naman puwedeng kikiyeme-kiyeme ka rito, kasi pokpok ako dito, di ba? Dapat kung ano ang nararapat na arte sa role ko, yun na yun.” Area is the closing film of the 2016 QCinema International Film Festival which kicked off last October 13. The Philippine premiere of Area will take place on October 22.

Alden Richards baffled why other people are very eager for him to have a love life As Posted on PEP.ph “So, hindi lang siya one person.” Sundot pa ng aktor, “I just don’t know kung bakit other people are very eager for me to have a relationship with others.” Nakausap ng PEP.ph (Philippine Entertainment Portal) at isa pang miyembro ng press si Alden sa Cadbury event noong September 23. Vocal si Alden sa pagsasabing prayoridad niya ang kanyang pamilya at nagtatrabaho siya nang mabuti upang mabigyan sila ng magandang buhay. Dagdag niya, “But whatever they see now, whatever I have now, dun ako kuntento. “I’m contented with what I have.” Natanong din kay Alden kung ano pa ba ang kulang sa buhay niya para matawag itong 'joyful life.'
A
yon kay Alden Richards, hindi porke’t gusto ng ibang taong magkaroon na siya ng relasyon ay yun na rin ang gusto niya. Batid ng Kapuso star na madalas siyang tanungin tungkol sa estado ng relasyon nila ng kanyang onscreen partner na si Maine Mendoza, pero hindi pa tinutukoy ng dalawa kung sila na nga ba o hindi pa. Palagay kasi ng marami, love life na lang ang kulang sa buhay ni Alden ngayon. Ngunit pahayag ng Pambansang Bae, “That’s what people think about my life, it’s not what I think about my life.
“Kumbaga, that’s what they want for me. “But the thing is, kumbaga, I’m really contented with the relationships that I have with people [at] this time.” Paliwanag pa ni Alden, hindi lang naman sa iisang tao nakatuon ang kanyang pagmamahal. “And I don’t really get the sense of when they say love life. Love life ba, meaning you have a significant other? “Parang, ako kasi, ang dami kong significant others, e. There are a lot of people in my life right now that I care for, that I love. www.filipinostarmagazine.com
Tugon niya, “You know what, ang daming questions like that. “Kasi for me, happiness is perspective. “It’s how you see your life. It’s not having the things that you don’t have. “It’s enjoying and being contented with what you have. “That’s how I see happiness. “And I enjoy kasi when you always tend to look for something that’s not there, you’ll never be happy. “And you’ll always end up envious of other people that they have this and you don’t have that.” 7

The movie is titled: My Ex and Whys.

challenge for them," shares Direk Cathy.
According to Director Cathy, Gil will be playing as a womanizer who is into real estate while Soberano will do a "quirky" role.
Asked if the tandem and real life couple is already ripe as an artist, Molina said, "Hinog for a movie--matagal na. Pero hinog as in hindi na sila mahihirapan, I don't think so. Every project has its own hirap na pagdadaanan."
Gil describes his new role as, "exciting" and adds that the character and the story is "very now, very young and naeexperience ng kabataan ngayon lang at hindi na-experience before." While Soberano shares, "ako 'yung kailangan nakakatawa dito. So ako 'yung nahihirapan dito kasi sa aming dalawa, ako 'yung hindi nakakatawa." For Direk Cathy, the challenge is in portraying in a rom-com movie as opposed to just doing drama. "Mas madaling magpaiyak kesa magpakilig at magpatawa. So it's a www.filipinostarmagazine.com
Adding, "And pag hindi sila nahihirapan, matatakot na ako. Kasi ibig sabihin, hindi na challenging 'yung pinapagawa ko sa kanila. Ibig sabihin, we are not offering you something new." As to how the two prepares for the rom-com, Liza shares, "Kailangan kong manuod ng maraming rom-com movies, mga Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore." To end, Gil told his fans who has long been waiting and asking for a new movie, "We are back!" 9

Melason together again; Melai expecting second child with Jason As Posted on PEP.ph
“Kasi dapat hindi niyo dapat gawin ito, kasi sagrado yung kasal, e.
“Kasi kung alanganin yung pag-aayos niyo, mag-aaway ulit kayo, e.
“Kaya talagang pinush namin na maging okay kaming mag-asawa.”
“So, talagang binigyan namin ng space ang isa’t isa.
Dagdag pa ng comedienne-TV host, “Pero thank you Lord, napagtagumpayan ko.
“After nun, nag-adjust kami sa sa isa’t isa. Nag-respect kami sa mga away at sa hindi at nag-accept kami sa mga [mali namin].
“Talagang si Lord lamang ang kinapitan ko, tsaka si Mela at kayong dalawa [Karla and Jolina].”
P
ero matapos ang halos tatlong buwan, muling nagkaayos ang mag-asawa.
Sa live episode ng Magandang Buhay ng ABS-CBN noong September 30, inihayag ni Melai na naayos na nila ni Jason ang anumang gusot na namagitan sa kanilang panandaliang hiwalayan. Panimulang kuwento ni Melai sa mga kasamahang hosts na sina Karla Estrada at Jolina Magdangal tungkol sa lagay ng kanyang puso, “Dati kasi may low pressure area, ngayon nilabas na ang low pressure area, sunshine na siya.” MELASON, ONCE AGAIN. Kasunod na tinanong ni Jolina kung mayroon pa bang Melason, ang tawag sa love team nina Melai at Jason na nagsimula sa Pinoy Big Brother Double Up noong 2012. Tugon ni Melai, “Siyempre naman, meron talaga, Melai and Jason. “Sobrang mahal namin ang isa’t isang magasawa. “Talagang napagtagumpayan namin ang mga pagsubok na dumating dahil sa magasawa, ganun naman talaga.” Ayon pa kay Melai, nahiya sila sa Diyos sa nangyari sa kanila dahil sumumpa silang dalawa sa altar na magsasama sila habambuhay. Aniya, “Una kaming nahiya kay Lord, pangalawa na yung sarili namin at sa anak namin. 10
ROAD TO RECONCILIATION. Tanong ni Karla kay Melai kung gaano kahirap para sa kanilang dalawa ni Jason noong mga panahong sinusubok ang kanilang pagsasama. Saad ni Melai, “Sobrang hirap, nakita niyo naman ang mukha ko. Para talaga akong dumaan sa kuwan… parang binagyo. “Every now and then, kapag may mga music [akong naririnig], iyak ako nang iyak. “Kapag may mga couple-couple akong nakikita, iyak ako nang iyak. Parang hindi ko talaga kaya.” Pero naging professional daw siya at isinantabi ang mga problema kapag nakaharap na siya sa kamera.
“Kasi dun ko na-realize na ang lesson ko pala dito ay kapag nag-asawa ka pala, dun mo makikilala ang asawa mo. “Pero huwag lagi na ang asawa mo lang [ang kilalanin mo], kasi nakilala mo din kung paano ka sa asawa mo. “So, nakilala ko na may pagkukulang din, may pagkukulang kami sa isa’t isa, kaya pupunan namin ito sa aming bagong chapter sa life.” Dagdag pa ni Melai, dapat daw laging bukas ang communication sa mag-asawa. ADDITION TO THE FAMILY. Dito na rin inanunsiyo ni Melai na madadagdagan na ang miyembro ng kanilang pamilya dahil nagdadalantao siyang muli. Ipinakita rin niya ang sonogram ng kanyang ipinagbubuntis.
Nitong nakaraang mga linggo, nagbakasyon si Melai kasama ang anak at ang kanyang pamilya sa Bohol.
Masayang sambit ni Melai, “Mga kapamilya, may bago kaming blessing ni Jason, at magiging ate na si Mela.
Dito raw niya napagtanto ang importansiya ni Jason sa kanilang pamilya.
“Siya ang sinasabi naming bagong kapamilya dito sa Magandang Buhay. Ten weeks akong pregnant.
“Nung bakasyon sa Bohol, hinahanap ni Mela si Jason... papa’s girl, e.” Doon na raw labis nadurog ang puso ni Melai, kaya naman gumawa siya ng paraan upang dalawin sa Mindoro ang asawa. Dito na raw nila pinag-usapan ang mga bagay na hindi nila napagkaintindihan. Sabi ni Melai, “Ginive time namin yung isa’t isa na mag-heal yung puso namin. www.filipinostarmagazine.com
“Ako, sobrang saya ko talaga nung nalaman ko na buntis ako! “Siyempre alam ko agad kasi hindi ako dinugo, e. Pagka-pregnancy test ko, unang nakaalam si Mela. “Tapos sinabi ko kagaad kay Jason, tapos sobrang saya niya na madadagdagan na ang aming family, kaya happy family kami.” Dito na pumasok sa studio sina Jason at si Mela.

Why did the Jennylyn Mercado-Coco Martin movie not push through? As Posted on PEP.ph
mahihirapan pagdating sa aktingan. Hindi rin ako maiilang kasi nakagawa na kami ng mga soap,’ said Jennylyn, referring to their now defunct Kapuso teleserye My Faithful Husband. Would she also be willing to work with her ex-boyfriend Luis Manzano? ‘Hindi ko pa po alam, pero professional naman po ako, kaya ko naman yun.’ For the past two years, Jennylyn has had a winning streak in the Best Actress category of the Metro Manila Film Fest. She earned the Best Actress trophy for English Only Please in 2014 and Walang Forever in 2015. Did she receive offers to star in another MMFF entry this year? “May offer naman, kaya lang po nagkaroon ng problema sa schedule. Dapat kasi sisimulan na namin yung soap sa GMA, e, kaya lang po, nadelay kaya noong time na yun, hindi namin tinanggap yung movie kasi kung magso-soap ako tapos may movie pa. ‘Gusto ko naman mag-focus sa soap kasi baka mamaya, haggard na naman ako,” she explained.

If ever, would she be willing to work with Dennis? ‘Bakit hindi? I’m sure hindi ako www.filipinostarmagazine.com
‘Na-delay din yung soap. Baka last week pa ng October ang taping namin.’ What happened to her supposed movie with Coco Martin? ‘Hindi lang po natuloy,’ she said with a laugh. When asked if this is because of the Philippine version of My Love From the Star, she answered: ‘Opo.’ She will portray Steffi Cheon in GMA7’s remake of the Koreanovela about a human actress who falls in love with an alien.

ng isa raw sa gustung-gusto ni Heart Evangelista sa married life nila ni Senator Chiz Escudero ay ang growth niya as a person and as an artist. Bukod sa pagiging artista ay nakatutok din si Heart sa iba pa niyang gawain at negosyo, katulad ng kanyang specialized craft na pagpipintura ng art sa designer bags. Pahayag ni Heart, “Wala kaming rules [ni Senator Chiz).
Heart Evangelista jokes about Sen. Chiz Escudero as kept husband: 'Binahay ko na siya... why not?'
“That's why, I think, when I got married, I am doing more pa, kasi he's very supportive… very generous siya sa time ko.
As Posted on PEP.ph Sagot ni Heart, “As of now, wala, kasi now, we don't have one house. Di ba, magkapitbahay kami?
“Hindi siya yung every Sunday, you have to be here or ganyan. “If you have work, you have to do your work, you have to do what you have to do.
“He stays with me, tapos pupunta siya dun, pakakainin niya ang mga anak niya [from his previous marriage].
“And I think, kaya mas naging productive ako, he's very supportive and he allows me to do it.
“Kasi nga, townhouse.
magkalapit
lang
kami,
“He tells me, 'Oh, this year, what you plan to do? By next year, ano ang ilu-launch mo? Kailangang may timetable ka, spread it out.'
“But when we move together, let's see.
“Yung mga ganyan-ganyan.”
STILL IN SHOWBIZ. Paalis si Heart papuntang Paris ngayong Oktubre upang i-finalize ang isang negosasyon kung saan siya ay kinumisyon ng isang French manufacturer upang magdisenyo ng limited edition ng mga produkto nila.
“Pero, like any other families, ganun naman 'ata, tulungan kayo, di ba?”
Dugtong pa niya, “Alam naman niya na I'm starting out, I’m developing a certain brand. “If I have to go away for a while, he'll leave and fix it for me. “Ganun siya ka-supportive, and it's okay with me.” Nakapanayam ng PEP.ph (Philippine Entertainment Portal) si Heart sa signing ng bago niyang talent management contract sa Viva Artists Agency na tatakbo ng dalawang taon.
“Nowadays, whoever is doing is doing okay, why do you have to be selfish sa lalaking... “You both put the food on the table, I'm for that.” Ano ba talaga ang setup nila pagdating sa kani-kanilang finances?
Dahil sa bagong interes na ito ng Kapuso actress, marami ang nagtatanong kung sa kanyang bag business na ba siya magku-concentrate at iiwanan na niya ang showbiz? ASagot niya, “Anything, kung anuman.
Saad ng 31-year-old actress, “May prenup kami, di ba?
Ginanap ito sa Viva office, sa Mandaluyong City, noong September 26.
“If the project excites me or feeling ay kaya kong gawin, gagawin ko.
“So, hindi niya pinakikialaman yun.
MONEY DETAILS. May balita na pati raw yung bahay nila sa New Manila ay si Heart mismo ang nagpapagawa at gumagastos.
“Pero kapag nakikita niyang umi-exag [exaggerate] ako, he tells me, 'Hello, Darling, magkano na nasi-save mo? Hindi mo na nakukuha yung limit.'
“So, parang hindi naman yung parang tatalikuran ko na [ang showbiz].
Natatawang pagkumpirma ni Heart, “Yeah… e, di kung ano, ako na lang. “Binahay ko na siya, quote that. Why not, di ba?
“At the end of the day, I have to work, we have bills to pay, so I'm working.
“Ano lang siya, kapag sumobra, 'Don't forget your savings.'”
“And I don't think marriage nowadays, I don't think modern marriages should not stop you from being independent.
Ginagastusan din ba siya ni Chiz?
“I'm very happy na very modern si Chiz.”

Bea Alonzo admits being picky in accepting projects As Posted on PEP.ph
H
indi na raw nababahala ang Kapamilya actress na si Bea Alonzo sa paghihintay para sa susunod niyang proyekto.
Tulad ng ginagawa niya ngayong teleserye para sa ABS-CBN, ang The Second Wife, na posibleng sa susunod na taon pa maipalabas. “Well, it's the reality of it,” sabi ni Bea nang matanong tungkol sa paghihintay para sa isang magandang proyekto. Patuloy niya, “I'd rather wait and make a good project kaysa naman gumawa nang gumawa na walang quality ang project. “Parang siguro, at this point in my career, I'm after quality than quantity now, so I really choose my projects well. “I only do projects that I like to do and that I really believe in. “Just like pagdating sa pag-e-endorse ng mga product, I only endorse products na talagang ginagamit.” Nakausap ng PEP.ph (Philippine Entertainment Portal) si Bea sa launch ng bagong Fujifilm X-A3 camera. CAREFUL WITH CHOICES. Aminado si Bea na mas mapili na siya ngayon pagdating sa pagtanggap ng proyekto. “I'm picky na. Siguro naman na-earn ko na yun after so many years.
hindi ka unfair sa mga nakakatrabaho mo na nagbibigay ng 100 percent sa trabaho nila.” AWARDS ARE BONUS. Samantala, nagpapasalamat si Bea sa pagkilala sa kanya bilang mahusay na aktres ng Luna Awards at Eduk Circle.
ginagawa mo.” Pero nilinaw niyang hindi ito dapat maging pangunahing dahilan ng pagpapabuti sa trabaho bilang aktres. Sabi ng 28-year-old actress, “Kapag 'yon ang drive natin to do the things that we do, parang ang selfish naman kung iisipin mo yun, di ba?
“I'm already 16 years in the business.
“Siyempre, grateful ako every time na may award na binibigay sa akin.
“Siguro kung mayroon akong natutunan, yun ay hindi ako gagawa nang gagawa.
“Just recently, binigyan ako ng Luna Awards and Eduk Circle,” sabi ni Bea.
“Dapat ang drive natin is to influence people and to inspire the youth kahit na cliche as it may sound.

Ayon kay Bea, masaya pa rin ang pakiramdam na makakuha ng ganitong klase ng pagkilala paminsan-minsan.

Charice on illegal drugs: ‘It’s just a waste of life.’ As Posted on PEP.ph
T
ahimik lang daw si Charice pero buo ang suporta niya sa ginagawang kampanya ng gobyerno laban sa ilegal na droga. Sa katunayan, pagdating sa bilang ng mga taong nasawi dahil sa kampanyang ito, nasa gobyerno raw ang kanyang simpatya. “This is ridiculous. Everybody fights for it. “Then, when someone gets killed because he's a drug addict, I mean, who are we gonna save, the drug addict or the victim? “That's the simple answer to it.
“I watch the news, I'm just quiet. That's the answer to it. Choose who you save, the drug addict or the victim,” sabi ng 24-year-old music artist nang makausap siya ng PEP.ph (Philippine Entertainment Portal) at iba pang reporters matapos ang press conference para sa bago niyang album na Catharsis noong September 30. Kaugnay nito, interesado rin daw siya sa sinasabing listahan ng showbiz personalities na diumano'y sangkot sa ilegal na droga.
just get out there. It's ridiculous. I support that 100 percent.” MUSIC ARTISTS USING ILLEGAL DRUGS. Hindi naman lingid sa kaalaman ni Charice na may ilang kilalang local at international music artists na gumagamit illegal drugs para diumano maging mas creative sa kanilang mga komposisyon. Kaugnay nito, nabanggit sa press conference ang mga bagong iniidolo niyang sina Kurt Cobain ng Nirvana at Janis Joplin. Nilinaw naman ni Charice na bagama't idolo niya ang mga ito, hindi ibig sabihin ay suportado niya ang paggamit ng ilegal na droga kaugnay sa trabaho bilang music artist. “I honestly don't get why people do drugs,” ani Charice.
here and in the States, especially in the States, there were so many young artists and not even young artists that I worked with in the studio. “I don't get it when they're like, 'Oh, I wanna do this. I wanna do that.' “They tell me that it helps them think. “But the thing is, I don't get it. I really don't. “At the end of the day, when I see them, sorry for the word, feel like sh*t, I was like, 'Why do you do it?' “That's one of the reasons I don't see why Kurt Cobain did what he did.” Sa huli, sinabi ni Charice na ang paggamit ng ilegal na droga ay “waste of life.”
“I didn't like Kurt Cobain, Janis Joplin because they did drugs.
“You keep saying that you only live once, but that doesn't mean you have to shorten your life.
“I just hate to say that maybe they wanted to look cool. I'm sorry.”
“You only live once, I'm not saying you gotta live healthy, but you gotta live right.
Pagkatapos ay ibinahagi niya sa entertainment reporters, “Based on my experiences, I worked with a lot of artists
“Be happy. Alcohol is fine, and vaping. But drugs, I don't think so. I'm against it.”
Ani Charice, “Actually, I'm interested. Kung hindi ka naman takot, why not?” Bilang artista, minsan na rin daw niyang narasanan na mapagbintangang gumagamit ng ilegal na droga. Biro niya, “Ako nga, lagi akong nai-issue na nagda-drugs. “Excited na nga akong matawag na magpa-drug test, e. Natatawa ako. “'Yon lang sa akin, kung hindi ka takot, www.filipinostarmagazine.com

Assunta de Rossi on being childless: ‘Ako yung may problema.’ As Posted on PEP.ph
Lahad ni Assunta, “But siguro yun lang ang puwede naming panghawakan. Everything is also falling into place. “Kasi lalo sa dalawang hacienda namin sa San Carlos, Negros Occidental, we control na everything. “Over the past eight years, yun ang ginawa talaga namin, yun talaga ang pinokus namin. We bailed out the company habang nagkakaroon ng economic crisis sa buong mundo. Kasi, di ba, 2008, bumagsak lahat “Kami naman, baligtad. We saved the company and then later on in-inherit niya [Jules]. “Now, we control everything, tapos kaming dalawa na lang mag-asawa, that’s our legacy na kumbaga.”

lang talaga namin, everything talaga happens at the right time.
“We’ve been waiting for like ten years,” sambit ni Assunta.
“Kung mangyari, baka pagsisihan mo na parang dapat pala nag-antay ako or I should have prayed for that na sundin ang gusto ng Panginoon.”
Pag-amin pa ng aktres tungkol sa hindi pa nila pagkakaroon ng anak, “Unfortunately, ako yung may problema. “Marami akong problema physically, so papaayos ko na lang sa doctor ko.” May dalawa nang anak si Jules mula sa una nitong asawa. Hindi idinetalye ni Assunta kung anong mga problema ang tinutukoy niya, pero aniya, “Over the years, ang daming lumabas na problems sa akin.” Gayunpaman, hindi pa rin daw sila sumusuko ni Jules na sa kanilang hangaring magkaanak. Pahayag ni Assunta, “Siguro iniisip na 18
“Minsan kasi pag pinilit mo, lalong hindi nangyayari kahit sa anong bagay.
Nakausap ng PEP.ph (Philippine Entertainment Portal) at iba pang reporters si Assunta sa press conference ng indie film na Higanti (Revenge), kung saan kasama niya sa cast sina Jay Manalo at Katrina Halili. Ginanap ang presscon noong September 29. Sa ngayon ay wala pang playdate ang pelikulang ito na idinirek ni Rommel Ricafort. Pero mauuna raw muna itong ipalabas sa ibang bansa. STILL BLESSED. Sa kabilang banda, blessed naman daw silang mag-asawa, lalo na sa mga ari-arian nila. www.filipinostarmagazine.com
Marami rin daw malalaking investors ang pumapasok sa kanila, lalo na sa kanilang lugar. “Medyo high nga lang yung price, wala kaming anak. E, baka ngayon si God maawa na rin na parang you’ve taken care of everyone.” Sundot ng PEP, advance na ngayon ang science at marami ang puwedeng maging option upang magkaanak sila ni Jules. Binanggit pa ni Assunta ang nabasa niya kamakailan na kahit ang isang 60-anyos na ginang ay nagkaroon pa ng anak. “We’re ano naman... thankful naman ako na that we’re able to afford the best care na kaya. Kahit minsan iniisip mo na sana di naman umabot sa ganun, pero di na rin ako magrereklamo. Iniisip ko na lang, yung iba nga they would pay, they would give anything di naman nila afford. So, di na ako magrereklamo.”

Louise delos Reyes finally admits vocalist Champ Lui Pio is her new man As Posted on PEP.ph
H
indi na naitago ni Louise delos Reyes ang identity ng kanyang boyfriend at ito nga ay ang Hale vocalist na si Champ Lui Pio. Hindi na ito kataka-taka dahil matagal na rin naman silang nauugnay sa isa’t isa. Lahad ni Louise, “Yeah, ayoko talagang magsalita about that, but he’s very supportive and naiintindihan niya yung trabaho. “Punu-push niya ako to be a better person, better actress. “Professional talaga, it’s nice that he understands and he really push me to be a better person. “More than anything else he’s my inspiration.” Pero naging firm siya dati sa pagtanggi na si Champ na nga ang nagpapatibok ng puso niya ngayon. Ayon sa aktres, “I am much happy and this time I want to be private with my life. “Since I started in showbiz, naha-highlight palagi yung 'someone' ko, kung sino ang boyfriend ko. “Ngayon parang mas gusto ko mas intimate siya, mas private, ayoko nang masyadong issue.” Naroon naman daw siya sa mga gigs ng kasintahan, “Yes, I’m a fan.” Nakapanayam si Louise ng PEP. ph (Philippine Entertainment Portal) at Cinema News sa nakaraang pictorial ng Cinema One Originals para sa
pelikulang Baka Bukas. Focused daw sila ni Champ sa respective careers nila, siya bilang artista at ang boyfriend naman bilang lead vocalist ng Hale. Lahad ni Louise, “More than the relationship itself, we’re both focused sa mga career namin at sa mga sarili namin. “Okey naman, lalo na ngayon na I am having a hard time in my life. “Parang I’m figuring things out, what I wanna do. “I just wanna try other things kung ano yung capable ako.” Isa rin sa pinagdaanan ni Louise ang pamba-bash sa kanya noon ng fans nina Alden Richards at Maine Mendoza. Hindi nga nakapagpigil si Louise at sinagot ang mga ito. Ngayon daw ay natutuhan na niya ang magtimpi at ang AlDub fans naman ay tila nanahimik na rin. Ani Louise, “Wala na rin naman and I think nararamdaman nila na I'm very happy with my personal life. “I stop answering na rin. Kasi before sobrang pikon ako with bashers. “But now parang waste of time na lang yan talaga. “Dati talaga pikon ako lalo na pag alam kong 'di totoo, lalo na pag nadadamay na yung family ko.” www.filipinostarmagazine.com

Now engaged to Liam Hemsworth, Miley explains she didn't really understand her identity until she met other people who thought the way she did.

Now a passionate activist, Miley tells the magazine that her identity struggles led her to become such a staple in the community. "My whole life, I didn't understand my own gender and my own sexuality. I always hated the word 'bisexual,' because that's even putting me in a box. I don't ever think about someone being a boy or someone being a girl," she tells Variety. "Also, my nipple pasties and s--t never felt sexualized to me. My eyes started opening in the fifth or sixth grade. My first relationship in my life was with a chick. I grew up in a very religious Southern family." Miley Cyrus' Style Evolution Despite her confusion and religious upbringing, Miley knew that she would figure it all out. "The universe has always given me the power to know I'll be OK," she adds. "Even at that time, when my parents didn't understand, I just felt that
"I went to the LGBTQ center here in L.A., and I started hearing these stories. I saw one human in particular who didn't identify as male or female. Looking at them, they were both: beautiful and sexy and tough but vulnerable and feminine but masculine. And I related to that person more than I related to anyone in my life," Miley explains. "Even though I may seem very different, people may not see me as neutral as I feel. But I feel very neutral. I think that was the first gender-neutral person I'd ever met. Once I understood my gender more, which was unassigned, then I understood my sexuality more. I was like, 'Oh—that's why I don't feel straight and I don't feel gay. It's because I'm not.'"

I'm the only f--king Disney star who would say I'm pro lesbian and gay, before it was OK to say that," she says. It's safe to say that Miley is anything but judgmental. The star is open to anything and anyone, even if there's controversy surrounding a figure with whom she works. Having worked with Woody Allen for Amazon's Crisis in Six Scenes, Miley says she judges a person by what she personally experiences. "I live a similar life to Woody—I live a public life. Until I know someone and I know their story, I never really judge anyone. That's kind of how I went into it," she explains to Variety. "From the way I saw him with his family, I never saw him be anything but an incredible person and a really great dad. People might slam me for saying that.

US actress Shailene Woodley has been arrested during a protest in North Dakota against a huge oil pipeline project that will cross four states. The Divergent star was arrested at a construction site as she was broadcasting the protest, which involved about 200 people, on Facebook.
Actress Shailene Woodley arrested during pipeline protest cuffed, she said she had been singled out from hundreds of other protesters "because I'm well known, because I have 40,000 people watching".
The pipeline will run 1,168 miles through North Dakota, South Dakota, Iowa, and Illinois.
The video spread quickly on social media and had been viewed more than 2.4 million times.
Energy Transport Partners, the company behind the project, has said it will boost local economies and is safer than transporting oil by rail or road.
Ms Woodley, a star of The Divergent Series and the movie Snowden, has previously joined members of North Dakota's Standing Rock Sioux Tribe to protest against the $3.7bn (ÂŁ2.8bn) pipeline.
But environmental protesters believe the transporting of up to 570,000 barrels of crude oil a day will imperil local waterways.
The protest on Monday, 10 October, took place at a construction site about two miles (3.2 km) south of the town of St Anthony.
Native American tribes believe the pipeline would also damage historic sites. As Posted on eonline.com
Police say she was one of 27 people arrested on charges of criminal trespass and engaging in a riot. The Dakota Access pipeline project has drawn huge protests. Native Americans have halted its construction in North Dakota, saying it will desecrate sacred land and damage the environment. In the Facebook Live footage, Ms Woodley, 24, said she had been walking peacefully back to her vehicle when "they grabbed me by my jacket and said that I wasn't allowed to continue... and they have giant guns and batons and zip ties and they are not letting me go".

Andi Eigenmann breaks silence on paternity issue of her daughter As Posted on PEP.ph
I
sang linggo mula nang pumutok ang isyu tungkol sa katauhan ng biological father ng kanyang anak, binasag na ni Andi Eigenmann ang kanyang katahimikan sa pamamagitan ng official statement na inilabas ng Viva Artists Agency (VAA), ang talent management agency na namamahala sa career ng kontrobersiyal na aktres.
Matatandaang sa podcast ng Good Times With Mo Twister noong September 22, kaswal na binanggit ni Max Eigenmann, kapatid ni Andi, na si Jake Ejercito raw ang biological father ng anak ng The Greatest Love actress. Sa kanyang official statement, nakiusap si Andi na igalang ang privacy ng kanyang four-year-old daughter na si Ellie. Walang binanggit na pangalan si Andi, pero tiniyak niya sa kanyang statement na kilala ni Ellie ang tunay na ama nito. Narito ang opisyal na pahayag ni Andi na ipinadala ng VAA sa PEP.ph (Philippine Entertainment Portal) ngayong gabi, September 30: “Recent events have put my daughter, Ellie, into the limelight
with the media, netizens, and strangers questioning who her father is. “I made a conscious choice to not talk about the paternity of my daughter in order to protect the privacy of Ellie. “Although she was born into a showbiz family, as a mother, I would like to shield her from the intrigues and gossip that are part of this industry. “Growing up, Ellie knew who her father was and he has been there for her, and that’s all that matters. “I hope this will put the issue to rest, out of concern for my very young daughter. “I’m requesting everyone to respect the privacy of Ellie.” Hanggang sa kasalukuyan ay wala pang naririnig mula sa kampo ni Jake Ejercito. Samantala, nagsalita na rin ang kampo ni Albie Casino, na itinuro ni Andi na siya raw ama ng kanyang ipinagbubuntis noong 2011, tungkol sa naging rebelasyon ni Max.

october HOROSCOPE ASTROTWINS, ASTROLOGY FORECAST Source: pilipino-express.com Kung balak mong umutang sa bangko para sa iyong negosyo, ngayon na ang panahon. Huwag mong ipagpaliban dahil baka magkaroon ka ng biglaang gastos na dagdag sa record mo ng mga utang. Kapag nagkaganoon, baka hindi ka na nila maaprubahan.
Ngayon ang panahon na kailangan mong tanggapin ng pikitmata ang dapat mong gawin. Walang mangyayari kung tututol ka dahil kailangang may gumawa – ikaw ang naatasan, kaya ikaw ang nakasalang. Pagbutihin mo at nang isang beses lang ito.
Pera ang magiging pangunahng problema mo sa buwan ng Oktubre. Nagtataka ka ba kung bakit parang lagi kang kapos? Pag-aralan mo kung saan mo ginagasta ang pinaghihirapan mo. Magbawas ka ng luho. Mas mabuting may naiipon para sa oras ng kagipitan.
Sa mga susunod na linggo, makakaramdam ka ng interes na palaguin ang iyong kaalaman. Kung puwede, magenrol ka kahit sa mga short courses lamang. Mahalagang patuloy ang pag-aaral nang hindi kalawangin ang iyong utak. Iba ang may bagong kaalaman kaysa wala.
May buwenas na nakalaan para sa iyo. Marami ka na ring ipinagtiis at hindi ka kailanman humingi ng kapalit. Alam nila iyon. Matutuwa ka dahil ipaparamdam nila sa iyo ang kanilang pasasalamat sa iyong mga sakripisyo. Mag-enjoy ka. Maganda ang buhay.
May okasyon na masyadong malakas ang dating mo sa ibang tao lalo na sa mga bago mong kakilala. Pagaralan mo kung paano mo rerendahan ang kilos at salita mo dahil nakakataranta ka at tuloy, iniwasan ka nila. Kialangan mo ang mga kaibigan – tandan mo sana.
Napapansin mong mas tumitindi ang pagmamahal mo sa iyong partner. Walang problema kung gayon din siya sa iyo. Kung gusto mo ng romansa pero parang ayaw niya, huwag mong daramdamin. May mga pagkakataon na hindi kayo pareho ng damdamin.
Magulo ang paligid, magulo rin ang pagiisip. Planuhin mo kung paano mo maaayos ang magulong kapaligiran. Maaaring sa bahay o sa trabaho – kahit saan man, sikapin mong tanggalin ang kalat – pisikal man ito o mental. Giginhawa ang pakiramdam mo.
Talasan mo ang iyong pang-amoy at pang-dinig, may mga naglalagay ng salita sa iyong bibig. Wala kang kamalay-malay na may mga nagdaramdam na sa iyo. Kung hindi maganda ang kutob mo sa isang tao, malamang ay tama ka. Huwag mong sayangin ang oras mo.
Ihanda mo ang iyong sarili sa darating na paglaki ng iyong pamilya. Dagdag ito sa kaligayahan ninyong lahat. Kung may nangiinis pa rin sa iyo, hayaan mo na lang dahil wala kang magagawa. Ang maganda, hindi mo naman sila nakikitang madalas.
May mga balak kayo noong araw na maaari nang matupad ngayon. Hinay-hinay lang dahil baka parang ipo-ipo ito sa bilis tapos ay wala na. Maaari ring parang kumunoy na lulunurin ka kung sabaysabay ninyong gagawin. Matatapos mo, dahan-dahan lang.
Makakaranas ka nang hindi pagkakaunawaan sa isang kaibigan. Hindi naman malala pero sapat na upang mabagabag ang iyong isip at hindi ka makatulog. Sino ang nagsimula? Tinatanong din niya iyon. Kung gusto mo pa siyang kaibigan, mauna ka nang bumati.

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.

COLLAGEN IN OUR BODIES Collagen is one of the most important structural elements of our bodies, accounting for 25%-30% of its total protein. 75% of the skin is collagen.Proteins are the“building blocks of life”. They bond together molecularly to form your bones, hair, skin, eyes, blood vessel wall and even your digestive enzymes, protective enzymes, neuro-transmitters and your hormones. The most important thing that a protein does, however, is hold information. Proteins can signal or direct certain processes in the human body which give us the ability to regeneration cell to cell, system to system and organ to organ.
WHEN THERE’S NOT ENOUGH COLLAGEN At age 19, the body loses its ability to produce collagen. Depletion of its generation. The loss of collagen is most evident on the collapse of the dermal layer and contributes to the appearance of wrinkles and sagging skin. Such condition leaves the bones exposed and painfully rubbing together. Collagen is a bio-active ingredient that promotes cell regeneration in this case in terms of joint health; through the repair of the degenerated joint matrix by stimulating chondrocytes cells for the biosynthesis of collagen peptides.
