Immediately after performing for thousands of fans who braved the heavy traffic, strong wind and drizzle on last Saturday's Hot Air Baloon Fiesta concert courtesy of Jeepney TV, JM De Guzman met with some members of the press to clarify rumors saying he reconciled romantically with ex-girlfriend Jessy Mendiola. 

Just recently, the ex-couple were seen watching JM's movie "That Thing Called Tadhana" (now on it's 3rd week) that ignite rumors about their reconciliation. Are they really back together?

"Hindi po, just friends lang. Ang nagkabalikan sa amin 'yong communication, 'yong bonding." JM shared.

Although he hopes to reignite their interrupted relationship, JM said he is contented to where they are now.

"Wala kaming friendship no'n e, kasi nang niligawan ko siya dere-derecho na, commitment agad. Ngayon iba ang feeling na magkasama kami pero 'di kami." he said.

So what happened to Jessy's well-publicized relationship with Colombian Sebastian Lopez? Gimmick lang?

Disney's “Cinderella” Movie Trailer, Cast of Characters


Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures International Press Release
The beloved characters in the fairytale “Cinderella” are fully-realized and fleshed-out in Disney's new live-action feature for today's audiences. 

Watch the film's new, full-trailer below:



Director Kenneth Branagh explains, “I liked the challenge of working with these great actors to bring as much detail and fun – and humanity – to their fairy tale characters as possible. I was excited to have the chance to retell a classic story in a way which would be both appealing and have meaning for modern audiences, and to have the support of Disney and some of the world’s most creative filmmaking talents.”

Let's find out how the familiar characters are re-interpreted with their descriptions below.


Ella (Lily James). A beautiful young woman with a gentle spirit, Ella finds joy in the simplest of things. She was raised in a caring and stable home and has a pure heart, a loving nature and is kind and generous to those around her. Despite the cruelty and abuse she is subjected to from her stepmother and her daughters, Ella continues to remain positive and steadfast, finding strength in the words of her late mother to “have courage and always be kind.”

The Prince (Richard Madden). The Prince is dashing, intelligent and thoughtful, a kindred spirit to Ella. He loves his father and hopes to one day rule as effectively, and is young and passionate and full of suggestions. Having just returned from war, the Prince now sees there is strength in pacification. The King’s views are more traditional however, and he is hesitant to listen to his son’s ideas.


The Stepmother (Cate Blanchett). The stepmother has had her share of broken dreams, which have left her bitter and full of regret. She longs to have a life that is taken care of from a financial point of view and a happy future for her daughters, but is jealous of any affection her husband bestows on Ella, resenting her for her youth, beauty and charm. Following the death of her husband, the financial pressures and panic cause the stepmother’s jealousy to grow, which manifests itself through cruelty and contempt directed at her stepdaughter.

The Stepsisters, Anastasia & Drisella (Holliday Grainger and Sophie McShera). Ella’s stepsisters, Anastasia and Drisella, have lived lives of comfort and privilege but are ill-mannered, boorish and unappreciative of all they’ve been given. Both are physically attractive and try to put forth a pleasant and well-groomed exterior, but in truth they are sometimes ugly on the inside. Lacking self-confidence and desperate for their mother’s approval, both girls are envious of Ella’s beauty and grace, neither of which they possess, which causes them to treat her unkindly.


The Fairy Godmother/Beggar Woman (Helena Bonham Carter). The Fairy Godmother is a delightfully-eccentric old woman who cares for Ella and longs to see her happy. But she is forgetful and is easily frazzled. She first presents herself to Ella as a disheveled beggar woman searching for food, and is immediately treated with kindness.

The King (Derek Jacobi). A much-loved and successful ruler, the King is proud of his son and wants to see him happy and leading a fulfilling life. But his health is failing, and while needing to ensure the Kingdom will be in good hands once he is gone, is firmly set in his ways and cautious about making any changes.


The Grand Duke (Stellan Skarsg̴rd). The Grand Duke is a pragmatic and calculating ally of the royal family. To him, marriage is nothing more than a business arrangement, and he believes the Prince should marry someone politically valuable to the royal family. He feels it is his duty to prevent the Prince from finding Рand marrying РElla, and teams up with her stepmother to make sure it does not happen.

The Captain (Nonso Anozie). The Captain is advisor and best friend to the Prince. Intelligent, loyal and dignified, he is responsible for the Prince’s safety and well-being, and does so with quiet nobility.
“Cinderella” will be released in the Philippines on March 12, through Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures International.

Boyce Avenue: Kilig kings pack Araneta Coliseum


Investing in covers has done Boyce Avenue good.

In fact, its amazing effect was in full force on Valentine’s Day when the group played their first arena concert in the Philippines and packed Araneta Coliseum like a boss.

And who did we spy on the front row? None other than Vice Ganda, as prominent cheerleader perhaps.
Instant appeal

While brothers Alejandro, Daniel and Fabian Manzano have written their own tunes, they’ve had to compete with the instant appeal of bonafide hits—especially because they do such great covers.

As expected, the crowd reacted warmly upon hearing the boys provide their rendition of songs like Katy Perry’s “Teenage Dream,” “Tracy Chapman’s “Fast Car,” and Bruno Mars’ “Locked Out of Heaven.”
That’s one of the nice things about a Boyce Avenue live performance --- you’ll never really predict what’s going to be offered on the table. Thus, it came as a thrill when one of their encore songs turned out to be Kings of Leon’s “Use Somebody.”

The boys said of the crowd: Us chilling with over 7,500 of our friends in MANILA!!! (Adrian Bautista/NPPA Images)The boys said of the crowd: Us chilling with over 7,500 of our friends in MANILA!!! (Adrian Bautista/NPPA Imag …



Appreciative act

“We love you dearly Philippines. You’re such an amazing crowd,” said Alejandro, who does most of the vocal chores.
Brothers Daniel and Fabian are vocally competent as well, even if Alejandro’s voice alone is strong enough to carry the load.
And mind you, Alejandro wrote “Find Me,” which he sang and dedicated to a female fan who was chosen to come on stage and take a selfie with the group.



Song choices

“BA knows how to pick songs to play for their fans. They're simplistic in their approach and know how to tickle their audience. But most important, they're good musicians,” observed Vic Valenciano, former A&R at then Sony-BMG and now with Curve Entertainment,
And the concert producers gambled biggish—and won biggish—by booking Boyce Avenue at a humongous venue and timing the show on Valentine’s Day.

“You could have been anywhere else,” Alejandro pointed out meaningfully, “but you chose to be here.”
