Nana & Hong Jong Hyun rumored to be dating, both sides & WGM PD respond

After School Nana and actor Hong Jong Hyun are reportedly dating for 7 months according to the February issue of Woman Sense magazine. Furthermore, it explained that the two have developed feelings to each other after they both hosted OnStyle’s ‘Style Log’.

In addition to their article, Nana and Jong Hyun have gone on dates for numerous times. However, Nana’s agency is quick to respond to MBN after confirming the report to her, “They are definitely not in romantic relationship. They have gotten closer after the broadcast, but not more than friends.”

Hong Jong Hyun’s agency also responds to ‘The Fact’, “Jonghyun went to Singapore with a manager for a fashion pictorial. Although we want to confirm it to him, he couldn’t respond. It’s embarrassing.” In addition to that, ‘We Got Married’ PD also explains, “We have already confirmed this rumor months ago to Jong Hyun. He said that they are just friends.”

Meanwhile, Hong Jong Hyun is currently appearing with his virtual wife Yura on We Got Married while Nana is appearing on ‘Roommate’.

Mary Jean Lastimosa Miss Universe Prelims: Hot in Swimsuit, Fail in Gown?

Mary Jean Lastimosa Miss Universe 2014 Swimsuit Prelims Performance was perfect
Mary Jean Lastimosa Miss Universe 2014 Evening Gown Preliminary gets
mixed reaction
Miss Philippines Mary Jean Lastimosa wowed and delivered during the
Miss Universe 2014 preliminary competition held Wednesday night in the
US (Thursday morning Philippine u
time)
I think Mary Jean Lastimosa delivered a performance, which in
over-all, worthy of a spot in the Top 15
Mary Jean Lastimosa particularly rocked in the swimsuit round, with
her shapely figure and sexy presentation on stage, MJ definitely has
got one of the sexiest bods among the Miss Universe 2014 delegates
In the gown department though, Mary Jean Lastimosa drew mixed
reactions for her white gown, which probably was another recommended
gown by BPCI chair Stella Marquez-Araneta
For me, it was better than Ariela Arida's yellow gown last year, but
the lower part of the gown made MJ look shorter
Mary Jean Lastimosa however carried it so well, her awesome curves,
catwalk skills plus her charismatic stage presence compensated for it.
The candidates' scores from the swimsuit and evening gown
preliminaries plus the scores from the preliminary interview (where MJ
is also expected to do well) will determine the Top 15 to be announced
on the Miss Universe 2014 finals this coming Sunday, January 25
(Monday, Jan. 26 MLA time).

Mark Herras Joins The Cast Of 'Yagit' As Yasmien Kurdi Gives Up Rights To Her Daughter Chlaui Malayao

Is Toni Gonzaga engaged to Paul Soriano?

This is the question asked by some followers of actress Sandy Andolong on her Instagram account @sandy_andolong. The veteran actress posted a collage of photos of Toni Gonzaga and boyfriend Paul Soriano during the cast of Home Sweetie Home's trip to Japan.

Gonzaga and Andolong are co-stars in the said ABS-CBN's Sunday family sitcom. Andolong wrote:

Wish & pray for more blessings, joy & peace in your life because you most certainly deserve it. No matter how famous you have become your are so well grounded & a humble person. You are a very good & caring daughter, sister, & friend. A loving & loyal fiancé, & more importantly a very obedient child of God. Have a happy one. See you Friday.

Was it just a mistake - that the veteran actress referred Toni a "loving fiance" or she just wasn't able to keep a secret a secret? But despite the fans' questions regarding Toni and Paul's engagement, Toni still left a message of "Thank You" to her sitcom mom's post ignoring all the comments.

@celestinegonzaga: Thank you very much Tita❤️❤️❤️ Love you!!!!

So, are Toni and Paul engaged? Just asking...

Reasons Why Johnny Depp Loves Manila

Hollywood actor Johnny Depp revealed during an interview with ABS-CBN's Balitang Amerika that he really loved Manila. He recalled how beautiful Manila is.

30 years ago, Depp, 51, spent some months in the Philippines when he filmed the movie "Platoon" in 1986, he often visited the city of Manila during that time.

"I was there for about three-and-a-half months and lived in the jungle for two weeks, which is far less enticing than Manila. We'd coast down to Manila every weekend or every chance we got," Depp said.

He also noted that his experience in Manila made him felt like he was in a Hemingway book.

"Oh, Manila was beautiful, I love Manila. That was great, great time. It felt like you were in a Hemingway book," Depp added.

Depp is back in the big screen with the comedy action film "Mortdecai," along with Gwyneth Paltrow, Ewan Macgregor, Paul Bettany, Olivia Munn and Jeff Goldblum.

This movie, which was directed by David Koepp, features the story of Charlie Mortdecai (Depp), a professional bon vivant and occasional art dealer who is about to experience financial breakdown.
