Sharon Cuneta signed a P1 billion deal with ABC5

Sharon Cuneta

I read that the Megastar had signed a deal with ABC5 so if it is true then she will left ABS-CBN. According to the news she signed a five years contract with the Kapatid Channel. Did she made a right decision? Many people said that she will lost her statues as the megastar but many people also said that she lost it long time ago just like other star whose start was brightly shining. Many people also said that Sharon is balingbing.But whether it is true or not she still get the biggest salary.

Ganyan naman yang si mega palipat lipat, papalit-palit, kung san mas may pera. Teka nung 1995 sinalubong nya ang santo papa with her on a jollibee billboard, after a while sa mc doo na daw siya. Dati Globe connect daw siya, ngayon smart na daw siya. Mga ilang taon din yon ang sabi niya "walang tatalo sa alaska" pero ngayon 'laking nido na raw mga anak niya". salbakuta at di lang yan... kahit na anak niya si kc na "UN ambassador against hunger" pero tingnan nyo ang mga endorsements niya puro mga basic necessities lalo na ng mga mahihirap: gamot, gatas, pati nga instant noodles na national food na ng mga dukha pinatos nya. e sa milyon milyon na endorsement fee nya rito o di ba mga ilang sentimo na rin sanang kabawasan sa presyo yun ng produkto. parang inaagawan na niya at ng iba pang mga rich & famous endorsers ng makakain at gamot ang mga mahihirap. At itong balitang 1B contract niya natural sa ads naman babawiin yan ni mvp san pa ba e di tayo na namang mga kunsyumer ang papasan niyan and since na di naman ganun kakapal ang commercial ads ng tv5, tiyak babaha na naman dito ang ads ng mga co. ni mvp like meralco, manila water, pldt etc etc. yari na naman tayo. Eto naman ang tinatawag na "profit sharing thru advertising " ng mga companies ni mvp to tv5 at the expense of the consumers/susbcribers and some stockholders of those utility cos plus mapapababa pa nila ang ROIs ng mga ito (for govt regularatory purposes esp for meralco) while tv5 gains everything. wais...

Regine is pregnant

Regine Velasquiz-alcasid

MANILA, Philippines – Regine Velasquez and Ogie Alcasid on Sunday confirmed that they are expecting their first baby.

The couple made the revelation on GMA 7 musical variety show “Party Pilipinas” after weeks of keeping silent.

It was reported earlier this month that the 40-year-old diva is pregnant.

In her phone interview, Velasquez said she is now 7 weeks pregnant.

She said she is not craving for any particular food.

“I just crave for some type of food but then after I eat it, I don’t like it anymore. Hindi na ako bumabalik doon. Paminsan-minsan lang. Pero ‘yong taong pinaglilihian ko, parang pinaglilihian ko si Dingdong Dantes at na-gwa-gwapuhan ako kay Richard [Gutierrez]. Nagpahingi pa nga ako ng picture,” she said, adding:

“Akala ko nga paglilihian ko si Heart Evangelista… Mas gusto ko ‘yong guy na face.”

If it is a boy, she said she will name it after her husband, who is Herminio Jhay Alcasid Jr. in real life. “Wala pa akong naiisip na [name pag girl] kasi naka-set na ang mind ko sa Herminio kasi alam ko lalaki.”

As for her birthday wish, Velasquez, who is turning 41 on April 22, said she wants her baby to be healthy regardless of gender.

“This is probably one of the happiest birthdays na nagkaroon ako. My wish is for my baby to be healthy, kahit ano, kahit babae, kahit lalaki, maganda kapag twins, sana healthy lang siya,” she said.

As for Alcasid, he is asking for the public’s prayer especially during his wife’s first trimester.

“Sana ipagdasal natin si Regine kasi hindi kaila sa inyo na kami matanda na. Medyo maselan ang kanyang pagbubuntis, alam ninyo naman first trimester,” he said.

He added in jest: “At ipagdasal ninyo ako na kayanin ko lahat ng demands ng aking asawa.”

It is Velasquez’s first pregnancy. Alcasid, meanwhile, has 2 daughters from his first marriage to former Australian beauty queen Michelle van Eimeren.
