Enrique Gil Is Sexiest Man in Philippines according to Survey in 2013

Enrique Gil is the sexiest man in the Philippines this year 2013 according to survey. He garnered a total of 39,746 votes. He was followed by Xian Lim with 22, 091. Well this is not accurate as this survey is based on popularity. I could not believe that many well proportioned models with good looks were trounced by this guy. Fans are the responsible of this funny result. I know that Enrique is a good actor but really the result is not credible.

MANILA – "Muling Buksan Ang Puso" star Enrique Gil was named the "Sexiest Man in the Philippines" for 2013 in an online poll conducted by popular entertainment website Starmometer.

Robert Downey Jr, Highest Paid Actor in 2013

Robert Downey Jr. is one of my favorite actors in Hollywood. I like him in "Chances are". He was nominated in the film "Chaplin" for best actor category in Oscar Academy. He was jailed for drug addiction and later back in acting again. You can't put down a good actor. He was able to regain his popularity by playing different characters. Right now he is the highest paid actor. 

Here is the news from Forbes.com about this article:

Robert Downey Jr. is a hit machine. He’s starred in six movies that have each grossed over $500 million at the box office worldwide. Two of those films, The Avengers and Iron Man 3, each earned over $1 billion. Every studio in town would love to cast him, and now they’ll pay big buck for the privilege. Downey tops our list of Hollywood’s Highest-Paid Actors with an estimated $75 million in earnings between June 2012 and June 2013.
Robert Downey Jr.



It’s hard to remember that just a few years ago, Downey was box office poison, and regarded by the studios as damaged goods. The promising young actor burst onto the scene in the late ’80s with movies like The Pick-Up Artist andLess Than Zero. But drugs quickly dragged him down until he became all but un-insurable. Directors like Robert Altman and Oliver Stone gave him work but for the most part, his career seemed to be a lost cause.


Downey turned that around with Iron Man. The first film in the franchise earned $585 million at the global box office. Overall the franchise has brought in $2.4 billion.
And then there’s The Avengers. The 2012 movie is the third highest-grossing of all time with $1.5 billion at the box office. While the film was nominally an ensemble piece, there was no doubt about who was the real star of the show. As Tony Stark, Downey mixes arrogance, humor and a hint of vulnerability to create a modern-day superhero everyone loves. While it’s probably possible to replace Chris Evans as Captain America, no one else could possibly play Tony Stark.
So Downey was able to secure a nice chunk of the film’s profits for himself. He earned more than anyone else on the movie, including director Joss Whedon. And he’ll get a huge upfront payday once the sequel starts filming in February.
To compile our list, we talked to agents, producers, managers and other people in-the-know to estimate earnings for each star between June 2012 and June 2013. We don’t deduct for taxes, agent fees or any of the other costs of being a celebrity.
While Downey tops this list, he only ranked 20th on our Celebrity 100 list, which is based on earnings and fame. Here we’re only looking at income. Downey ranked behind actor Hugh Jackman on the Celeb 100 because the Australian actor had a much higher social media ratings than Downey. Jackman boasts 2.7 million Twitter followers. Downey avoids social media, even though it would  give him the opportunity to connect directly with the fans who are really his customers.
Jackman ranks third on our Highest-Paid Actors list with an estimated $55 million in earnings between June 2012 and June 2013. A lot of that money comes from his work as Wolverine in the X-Menfilms. Yet another X-Men movie (the sixth) hits theaters later this month. It’s the second film to exclusively feature Jackman’s Wolverine.
But the actor, who has also appeared on Broadway, showed that he’s more than just an action star this year with Les Miserables. The film was nominated for eight Oscars, including one for Jackman who starred as Jean Valjean. It also made money. Les Miz brought in $438 million on a $61 million budget.
Ranking second on our list between Downey and Jackman is Channing Tatumwith an estimated $60 million in earnings. Tatum is often touted for his looks and his dance skills but he’s also a super smart businessman. He and director Steven Soderbergh self-financed the movie Magic Mike, which meant they didn’t have to get notes from any studio bigwigs and they didn’t have to share any of the film’s sizable profits. The $7 million movie brought in $167 million at the global box office and is a growing business. A Broadway show is in the works as well as a line of bars and a sequel.
Mark Wahlberg ranks fourth with $52 million. His 2012 film Ted was the biggest surprise hit of the year. Directed by fellow Celebrity 100 member Seth MacFarlane, the film cost $50 million to make and earned $550 million at the global box office. That massive profit helped boost his earnings from $27 million last year.
Rounding out the top five is Dwayne Johnson. The former wrestler is now a bona fide movie star who had a film in the top 10 for 10 weeks in a row. His latest, Fast & Furious 6, earned $695 million on a budget of $160 million. We estimate The Rock earned $46 million between June 2012 and June 2013.

Charice Confessed She is A Lesbian

The sensational singer Charice Pempengco confessed in the Buzz that she is a tomboy or lesbian after Boy Abunda asked her if she is indeed a lesbian. Charice came out after a long speculation about her sexual preference. She said she chose Philippines to reveal  her sexuality because she said that what she is today she owed it from her Filipino fans. She was emotional when she confessed it and asked forgiveness from her fans, mother and brother about it. She said that she is not ashamed about what she is and proud of it.

Charice is now free as a bird, t-bird lol and she is hoping that her fans will understand her. She said that she is waiting for a day that no one will discriminate anyone regardless of what she or he is but will focus on what the person can do. She also said that she will be busy because she will have an up coming album recording and a TV show but will not reveal what it is.

Boy Abunda also ask about the girls who were links to her and about sexual experience. Charice still hoping that she will get married in the future.

Here is the complete news about Charice taken from ABS-CBN.com

MANILA – Singer Charice on Sunday ended speculations about her sexual preference by finally admitting that she is indeed a lesbian.

In an interview with Boy Abunda aired on “The Buzz,” Charice said: “Opo, tomboy po ako.”
“Mayroon po akong chance na gawin lahat ng ito internationally. Pero pinili ko po dito dahil malaki ang utang na loob ko sa mga Pilipino dahil na-feel ko na gusto ko na sila 'yung makaalam kung ano ako, or kung sino ako,” she said.
An emotional Charice also apologized to her family and fans who are disappointed by her coming out.
“Gusto kong humingi ng patawad sa mga hindi nakaintindi. Sa mga hindi makakaunawa, sa mga hindi ako matatanggap, sorry po. Naiintindihan ko po kayo. Pero sa mga tanggap po ako, maraming, maraming salamat po,” she said.

She added: “Sorry, Mommy, Carl pero ito ako. Proud ako sa sarili ko at mahal ko ang sarili ko kaya ko ginagawa ito. Sa mga fans ko na alam ko marami sa inyo disappointed. Alam ko nga siguro 'yung iba sa inyo tatalikuran na ako, sorry. Alam niyo na sincere akong tao. From the bottom of my heart, sorry. Naiintindihan ko kayo.”
Earlier in the interview, Charice admitted that she and her mom are not in good terms but said it is just normal for a mother and her child to have misundertandings.

“Opo, nag-aaway kami ni mama. Kailangan ko po siyang intindihin. Kung nasaktan man niya ako, alam kong mas nasaktan siya bilang ina. Ngayon po, hindi kami magkaaway. Nasa stage kami na tina-try intindihin ang isa’t isa. Pero I have to give her credit na tina-try niyang intindihin ang sitwasyon. Nag-aaway po kami pero normal lang po iyon,” she said.

Charice, however, clarified that she is not rebelling against anyone, especially her family.
“Nagpa-tattoo ako, nagpagupit ako, lahat iyon choices na gusto ko. Alam kong very risky pero ginawa ko dahil iyon ang gusto ko. Hindi dahil nagrerebelde ako or nasaktan ako ng isang tao, ng pamilya ko or kung depressed ako. Ginawa ko po iyon dahil iyon ang gusto ko,” she said.

Same-sex relationship

Without naming names, Charice also admitted she has had same-sex relationships.
“Opo, naman. Siyempre hindi ko naman masasabi kung sino pero opo naman na-experience ko po iyon,” she said.
However, she denied that she had a relationship with former “The Voice” finalist Cheesa Laureta.
“I remember nag-post kami ng picture ni Cheesa na ang caption ko ‘my baby girl’ kasi nakita namin sa timeline namin sa Twitter namin na jowa, jowa daw. Pero no po. Si Cheesa is like a big sister. Hindi po totoo,” she said.

On Alyssa Quijano

Last month, Charice made headlines after it was reported that she supposedly ran away from home to elope with former “X Factor” finalist Alyssa Quijano.
Clarifying this issue, Charice said: “Hindi ko po alam ang sasabihin ko diyan. Umalis ako ng bahay pero alam ko, alam din naman ni mommy noon na darating sa point na iyon. Umalis ako hindi dahil ayaw ko na doon. Umalis ako dahil iyon ang kailangan kong gawin.”
According to Charice, she is now staying at a house in Cabuyao, Laguna with the people whom she never thought would “catch a bullet for me.”

“Sa sitwasyon ko ngayon, hindi ko ine-expect. Ang hirap mag-trust, ang hirap maghanap ng taong ganun. Pero again, hinayaan ko ang Diyos na bigyan ako ng sign, bigyan ako ng kung sino ang puwedeng tumulong sa akin. Finally kapag pumasok ako sa isang bahay, puwede lang akong humiga at sabihing pagod na ako. Puwede kong lahat gawin, puwede ako ipakita kung sino si Charice sa harap nila na walang manghuhusga,” she said.
Asked who is Quijano in her life, the former “Glee” star said: “She’s an inspiration. She’s a very special person.”
Charice said she and Quijano have known each other since they were 10 years old but it was only during “X Factor” that their paths crossed again.

Quijano was a member of the group contestant AKA Jam, while Charice was among the show’s judges.
Asked if she loves Quijano, the singer said: “Sana mabuksan niyo ang puso ko para makita niyo. Malakas ang tibok.”
Furthermore, Charice admitted she is hoping to marry in the future.

Career

While her continuous absence in the local showbiz scene has puzzled her fans, Charice assured her supporters that she will be back in the limelight again soon.
“Magkakaroon po ako ng recording. Magre-record ako ng isang song na mafi-feature isang big project. And TV shows na lalabasan ko pero hindi ko puwede sabihin,” she told Abunda.
The singer said she will also be working on her third solo album soon for her fans in the Philippines
Charice said she is still being managed by Mark Johnson in connection with her career in the United States, while she still remains under the management of Glen Aldueza here in the Philippines.
“It’s very nice to have 'yung tao na kilala ka, alam 'yung gusto mo at ayaw mo,” she said.
