JOHN Estrada is raving about his new teleserye on ABS-CBN, A Beautiful Affair, top-billed by Bea Alonzo and John Lloyd Cruz. I watched the pilot episode and got glued instantly. The BeaLloydie tandem never fails to cast a spell and John is captivating as always. As the story unravels, it could turn out to be too beautiful just to be an affair. What can the audience learn from your teleserye? Theyre in for a wild roller-coaster ride.
We are all working hard to make it as real as possible. It will teach them not to let go of people, treasure love, and live for the moment. Define a beautiful affair. Its meeting the right person at the right time without the complications that reality brings. But that rarely happens. Love is usually complicated and full of drama. How has your wife Priscilla tamed you? I must say its not just Pri and my kids who made it possible. It came with maturity. What are your plans for your baby girls first birthday? I leave it all to Pri because shes good at that. She does the planning, and Ill do the paying. How do you bond with your kids (Inah, Moira, Kaila and Yuan, with Janice de Belen and Anechka with Pri)? With Anechka, its during feeding time. I really enjoy spending time with her because she already plays a lot. With my other kids, we have dinner and watch movies. I love talking to them because theyre all grown-up already. They have wonderful plans for their lives. Are you willing to work with Janice? Ive always been open to working with her, but shes vocal about not wanting to work with me. Id rather not force the issue.
IZA CALZADO: Ben (Wintle, her boyfriend) and I went to Cebu and stayed at the Abaca boutique resort, my fave haven there. They value guests privacy. They have good food, beautiful rooms and excellent service. I loved that I could take three days off from work to soak up some sun, dive and be with my favorite travel buddy.
MIRIAM QUIAMBAO: I went to Albay in Bicol for the celebration of my granduncles (Bishop Lucilo Quiambao) 80th birthday. The highlight was naturetripping, worship/prayer time with the Mayon volcano in full view, running under the full moon with my dad and holding hands with my mom while walking on the beach, swimming in the serene waters as if it was my backyard pool, eating ginataang crab with my hands and bathing under the poso (artesian well), which was [new] to me. It reminded me of my childhood, when life was simple and uncomplicated.

Janice blossoms
Birthday girl Janice de Belens career is in full bloom. But for now she opts to keep her love life zero. Im happy to be single, she beamed. I cannot afford to be with the wrong one. After all Ive been through, I learned to love myself more. Is there no way she would work with her ex, John Estrada? There are some things I dont have to do, she pointed out. Im better off this way. Does she feel that she loves her grandchildren a little more than her kids? I love them all equally, she quipped. I guess thats why they say na mas mahal ang tubo sa puhunan, because as a lola all I have to do is spoil and love Adrianne and Alejandro. Rearing and disciplining them is the job of their parents. Whats her birthday gift to herself? I want to put up a food truck that will tour the city and serve hot meals.
MARVIN AGUSTIN: I started golf training coached by my kids, Santiago and Sebastian. They and their mom, Tet, gave me a golf set as an advanced birthday gift. My kids taught me the proper golfing form.
BAYANI AGBAYANI: We stayed home watching movies and enjoying my wife Lens home cooking, which, for me, is the best. Then we went to Clark, indulged in our craving for Japanese food at Zen in Pampanga and stayed overnight at Mimosa. The cute part was when my daughter, Mikmik, wanted to go to a playground. We had to walk very far to find one. We had no nannies with us so I enjoyed watching over her for three hours while she played. Whatever your plans this month, lets make it a MOVEmber as the Christmas countdown begins. Seize the day! Never let your growing days cease. @ThePinoyInsider

Aquino said. He said they also tackled the protection and welfare of overseas Filipino workers in view of economic problems in their country of destination. He said he attended the trilateral meeting with the European Council headed by honorable Herman Van Rompuy, and the president of European Commission Jose Manuel Barroso. They discussed the situation of more than 91,000 Filipino seafarers working in the European-flagged vessels. Hindi po biro ang epekto sa atin sakaling i-blacklist tayo ng European Union: bukod sa mahigit 91,000 Pilipinong mawawalan ng

As of last count, in her 25 years as a singer Regine Velasquez has recorded more than 500 songs (including movie and TV soundtracks) and thats an unprecedented record, indeed! As far as I know, its only Regine who has recorded a duet with a legendary foreign artist that is, with Paul Anka on Its Hard To Say Goodbye. Oh yes, of course, theres also Lea Salonga who also did a duet with Julio Iglesias. Asked which foreign artist she would like to do a duet next, Regine joked, Hmmmm, maybe Justin Bieber?, adding, I used to say si Brian McKnight but I did have a chance to sing live with him at a dinner in his honor last year when he was here for a concert. Because Regine is celebrating her 25th anniversary in the industry with a concert special on Nov. 16 at the MOA Arena (with her husband Ogie Alcasid as guest performer together with Janno Gibbs and Lani Misalucha, accompanied by the 60piece Manila Symphony Orchestra with Rowell Santiago as director, and Ryan Cayabyab and Regines brother-in-law Raul Mitra as musical directors), her PR Jun Lalin invited only 25 movie writers to the presscon at Cravings (at Il Terrazo on Timog-Morato Rotunda, Quezon City, one of the sponsors along with, among others, The Philippine STAR). The concert is co-produced by iMusic Entertainment and GMA Kapuso. The concert was originally scheduled for September or October but Regine, joking again, said, Hinintay pa nilang mas pumayat ako. Yes, she has to shed a few more pounds gained during her pregnancy for Nate Jacob, her and Ogies first child born in November last year. Happily, shes winning her battle with the bulge, thank you.

ALJUR Abrenica doesnt think the movie he did with Kylie Padilla for her dad, Robin, will adversely affect the ratings of his hit show with Kris Bernal, Coffee Prince. Movie naman yung ginawa namin ni Kylie at sa TV namang Coffee Prince, so magkaiba sila, he says. Some writers are telling him his younger brother Vin, winner in TV5s Artista Academy, is a better actor than him and he quickly agreed. Siyempre, alangan namang makipagtalo pa ako. Para matapos na lang agad, sige na, kapatid ko naman yun, e. Sinasabi rin nila mas maganda katawan niya sakin, mas pogi siya sakin, okay na rin. Hindi naman kailangang pagsabungin kami. Bilang kapatid ko siya, I wish him the best. Magkaiba naman kami ng network, e. How about the story that their parents have split? Hindi totoo yun. Nagkaroon sila ng misunderstanding, pero nagkaayos na. Magkakasama nga kaming lahat sa Araneta noong manalo si Vin. In Coffee Prince, the friendship of Aljur as Arthur and Kris as Andie is getting deeper since they both nurse a broken heart. Theyre both jealous of Max Collins as Arlene and Benjamin Alves as Errol. The shows
director, Ricky Davao, attests to the fact that Aljurs acting has definitely improved for the better. Lahat ng nagsasabing hindi siya magaling, panoorin nila ang Coffee Prince so they can see for themselves how effective he has become, he says. Coffee Prince will end this month and wont be extended. According to GMA exec Redgie Acuna Magno, their contract with the Korean company who owns the rights is really for only 7 weeks. The show is rating but hindi talaga puwedeng i-extend pa, she says. Ayaw na ng Korea @ThePinoyInsider magbigay ng extension.

ANDI Eigenmann failed to show up at the Secret Affair victory party as shes taping Kapag Pusoy Masugatan. But her mom, Jaclyn Jose (who plays Anne Curtis mom in the film) came and said shes proud of Andis acting as the girl who wants to steal Derek Ramsay from Anne. What can she say about Andis love scene showing her naked back? Okay lang yun. Bale wala compared sa ginawa ko sa launching movie ko. She was totally nude as a torera in Chito Roos Private Show in 1987. She was also asked about Andis relationship with Jake Ejercito, son of Erap Estrada and former actress Laarni Enriquez. Its said that Jakes parents are against Andi as shes an unwed mom. Its hard to talk kahit marami akong gustong sabihin kasi president si Erap, no? Ang sakin lang, bigay na nila sa mga bata, let them fall in love. Personally, she likes Jake. Mabait siya, gentleman. Hes such a beautiful person. Kami ni Andi, well never stop loving him. Everytime he comes to our home, welcome yan. Kinakarga pa niya si Ellie (Andis love child). Jake studies in London but visits Andi everytime hes in town. Hindi ako nakikialam sa kanila, hindi ko tinatanong kung kayo na ba uli o kayo pa ba? Pero nagkukuwento sakin ang anak ko kaya lang ayaw nung kabila, so paano natin ikukuwento? Ayoko na ring pag-usapan kasi president si Erap, ngayon magmemayor pa. At si Laarni, baka nagmemenopause, mahirap kausap yung nagmemenopause. We just respect their decision kasi anak nila. They have to take care of their son. Ganun din naman ako sa anak ko. Sabay kami ni Laarni noon nang magbuntis, kaya sina Andi at Jake, same age yan, 22. Bata pa sila, magkakilala na. Best friend ni Laarni ang sister ko (Veronica Jones) kaya tuwing New Year, nandun kami sa kanila, so childhood friends talaga sila. Beyond our control naman kung anong naging feelings nila sa isat isa. Because of Jaclyns statements, she was attacked on the internet by some folks. Andi then defended her mom in her Nov. 4 blog, andieeigengirl, saying: In behalf of my mother, Id just like to apologize for certain things she might have said that mightve put certain people in a bad light. I know for a fact that it wasnt her intention at all. Maybe at that point, she too was only being a mom. Just as your parents would want whats best for you, she just wants the same for me, and this time Im guessing she just wanted to let others know that I deserve it too (in her opinion that is). Im not angry at my mother, dont get me wrong. Besides the fact that Im not allowing myself to, cuz i have respect for her, I also know that she couldnt have possibly done that to throw Jake and I under the bus on purpose. I just really hope Id be granted an opportunity to apologize personally, to
show more sincerity than this blog post. Well just in case, here goes. I wouldnt have fallen in love with such a fine young man if not for the amazing parents he has who surely raised him well. People who brought him up to be the smart, kind hearted, humble gentleman that he is. Therefore, I know for a fact that it will be wrong for all of you to judge his parents negatively just because they only want whats best for him. Now that Im a mother myself, its easier for me to see the picture for their angle. Both from my moms and his. I may not be as experienced as they are, maybe I have yet to gain even half the amount of wisdom they have, but what Im sure of is that
both our parents will do anything just as long as we, the children, will never be put to harm. So just as a lot of you may understand my situation and believe that I still deserve to be loved and respected amidst what I have gone through, we should all understand that his parents only want the best for their son. I can attest to the fact that they do not have closed minds at all and that there maybe two sides to this story as well. I will do the honor of throwing myself under the bus, myself, by trying to speak on behalf of them too. The mistake I made in the past was not the fact that I have Ellie. It goes beyond that. Obviously, Ellie wouldnt have happened if her dad was out of the picture already. And then maybe Jake and I couldve lived happily ever after. I trust that you guys be smart enough to figure that one out for yourselves. Normally, the Andi that learned from her mistakes wouldve just chosen to keep quiet and wait for things to die down. I would have chosen to leave all this up to God and trust that hed keep Jake and I happy. But its harder when its someone else you truly care about that gets affected. I know maybe Ill never be good enough for him in other peoples eyes. But I also know that because I do care a lot, I can prove them wrong. Im not perfect, and Im only human. People make mistakes. But that doesnt mean were not allowed to learn from them and to deserve forgiveness too. I trust that everything will be all right in Gods time.

ritz Azul
ready to go
Ritz Azul is ready to go daring as shes now the cover girl of FHM for the month of November. With her ample bosom, no doubt Ritz is truly oozing with sex appeal. But although she has the body of a full grown woman, she says shes still a child at heart. Its true, may pagka-childish pa po ako and it took a while before they were able to convince me to do the sexy pictorial kasi even my dad was against it as our family is really conservative, she says. Sobrang kinakabahan ako during the foto shoot kasi sobrang mahiyain po talaga ako, but when the fotos came out na, nakita ko namang inalagaan nila ako at hindi malaswa ang mga kuha so I felt better. She considers it just a career move for the public to get to know her better. Sabi nila, may K naman akong mag-sexy pictorial, wala namang niretoke saking kahit ano, its all natural, kaya sige, I told myself, why not try it? Kahit this once lang. So far, maganda naman ang feedback since the magazine came out kaya natutuwa na rin ako. Ritz starred in acclaimed soaps like Nagbabagang Bulaklak with Ruffa Gutierrez and Glamorosa with Lorna Tolentino. Shell soon be back on

She and Derek are now quite close, exchanging messages regularly on twitter. Derek even praised her FHM pictorial and it seems like hes quite smitten by her.
declared that her mother was a former teacher. Though the Kapatid star was busy taping several TV shows and promoting a movie, he made time to attend the event and pro bono at that. Other celebs who paid tribute to the teachers that day were Aga Muhlach, Wally and Jose, Princess Velasco, and the EB Babes. The program, the culmination of activities that PLDT Gabay Guro hold for teachers throughout the year, lasted five hours. The grand prize raffled off by Villar Foundation managing director Cynthia Villar and Gabay Guro chair Chaye CabalRevilla was a Camella house and lot that went to Sarah Jane Gabat, a Grade 2 teacher of Comembo Elementary School, Makati City. Earlier during the program, CabalRevilla together with Cavite Representative Lani Mercado also feted the Guro Ko, Idol Ko honoree, Weng Alcala, who teaches with passion and dedication despite living inside a classroom with his kids after circumstances forced them out of their
home.
The PLDT Gabay Guro program started five years ago. It offers scholarships to future teachers now at almost 500 this year and conducts training programs that have benefited some 12,000 teachers to
date. PLDT Gabay Guro also provides teachers with livelihood and housing options, installs broadband connection and computers at schools, and improves educational facilities, among others.

CP and YN are often seen in various night spots, according to a spy, supposedly planning a joint venture. Its all business, CP insists. Just like what he had with SI? Stop this man already! Powerful Insider is getting nervous. She is leaving no stone unturned to make sure Latest Project will be a sure winner. PIs competitive streak is sparked by equally Influential Colleague, who could churn out a better product. PI and IC have a rather stormy past and have clashed on numerous occasions. The rivalry isnt just about business; its clearly personal.
moody day
Antsy insider
Call him Moody Diaz. Handsome Hunk was in no mood to socialize with the staff of a major airline. Flight Attendant, who wanted to have a snapshot taken with HH, was coldly rebuffed. On other occasions, HH was more accommodating. Not this time. Perhaps he was having a lousy day and felt like channeling Flamboyant Siblings divaness. Its in the genes.
front act
Sexy Starlet was linked by the rumor mill to Fast-Rising Comic. There is talk that SS was the secret sweetheart of Famous Comedian, who was involved with Pretty Colleague at the time. PC had gladly acted as front, to cover FCs tracks. Also, there are allegations that FCs falling for SS caused a mini-scandal in the workplace.

paolo contis umaming maraming utang, niresbakan ang mga kaibigang nagsamantala sa kanyang pera
Manhid ang mga kaibigan na hindi naramdaman na sila ang tinutukoy ni Paolo Contis na biglang nawala nang magkaroon siya ng problema sa datung. Sila ang mga kaibigan na nakinabang kay Paolo na mahilig mag-treat kapag may hawak siya na malaking pera. Sila ang mga kaibigan na lumayo dahil na-feel nila na wala silang mapapala mula kay Paolo. Nagsalita si Paolo sa Startalk. Inamin niya na totoong may mga problema siya sa pera pero isa-isang niyang hinaharap ang kanyang mga obligasyon. Pinabulaanan din ni Paolo ang hinala ni Lian Paz na may ibang babae sa buhay niya at mapapatunayan daw ito ng kanilang mga kasambahay. Sa loob ng isang taon, hindi umaalis ng bahay si Paolo, maliban na lang kung may trabaho siya. Hindi mapipirmi ng bahay si Paolo kung may other woman siya. Ayaw ni Paolo na pinag-uusapan sa TV ang mga personal na problema. Hoping siya na makakapag-usap sila ni Lian para maayos ang kanilang diffe- rences. Napapayag si Paolo na mag-guest kahapon ng live sa Startalk dahil sinagot niya ang mga akusasyon ni Lian nang umapir ito sa HOT TV noong nakaraang Linggo. Nagiging teary-eyed si Paolo sa tuwing nababanggit ang dalawang anak nila ni Lian. Ten days ago nang huling makasama ni Paolo sina Xonia at Xalene nang ipasyal niya ang mga bata sa isang mall. Nakakausap ni Paolo sa telepono ang mga bagets sa pamamagitan ng mga yaya. Handa si Paolo na makipagusap kay Lian, alang-alang sa kanilang mga anak.
sa binyag ni Aryana. Present din ang fashion designer na si Paul Cabral na close friend ni James. Umapir din si Quezon City Councilor Precious Hipolito at ang mister nito, si House Representative Winnie Castelo. Kaibigan ni Alfred ang mag-asawa at magkalapit ang mga opisina nila ni Precious sa Quezon City Hall. Isinulat ko na noon na hindi nawawalan ng mga teleserye offer si Alfred pero ito ang tumatanggi dahil ang constituents niya sa Quezon City ang kanyang top priority.

AFTER playing a lead role in Grazilda, Glaiza de Castro would have preferred doing more lead roles, but after Grazilda, she supported Marian Rivera in Amaya. Then she did another lead role opposite Dennis Trillo in Biritera. Now, shes back to playing a villain role to support Marian Rivera in Temptation of Wife, where she steals Dennis from Marian. Shes a friend at magandang samahan namin so okay lang suportahan si Ate Marian any time, she says. Heto nga, galit na sakin ang loyal fans niya (dahil) sa mga pang-aapi ko sa kanya in my role as Heidi. Hinihiya ko siya as Angeline sa harap ni Dennis as Marcel para mapasama siya sa paningin nito. Pero siyempre, we want to make it clear na yung kasamaan ko, sa screen lang yun, no? Not in real life.

SINA Willie Revillame at Joey de Leon ang naging paksa naming magkakaibigan nung isang araw. Si Willie ang ipinangsorpresa ng Startalk sa selebrasyon ng kaarawan ni Joey, walang pagdadalawang-isip na pumayag agad si Willie nang makarating sa kanya ang imbitasyon, pinaglaanan niya yun ng panahon. Nahirapan siyang mag-isip kung ano ang ireregalo niya kay Joey, napakahirap nga namang regaluhan ang isang taong sa pakiramdam mo ay parang halos meron na ng lahat ng materyal na bagay sa mundo, pero meron pa rin siyang naisip. Nagpunta siya sa EDSA Shangri-La Plaza, bumili siya ng gold Rolex, tuwing titingin nga naman sa oras si Joey ay maaalala siya nito. Hindi naman itinatago ni Willie na idolo niya si Joey de Leon, saludo siya sa talento ng komedyante-TV host, hindi lang talaga maiiwasan kung minsan ang

top 7 makeup color & Application tips for dark skin beauties
Dark skin beauties often have makeup and skin care issues unique to only them. Dark skin or ethnic skin cosmetics tips and information is often challenging to find.

Use these makeup tips and techniques for dark skin beauties to help you learn how to look the best you can! When it comes to brown or dark skin, its important to choose an oil-free foundation that is actually a bit lighter in tint than your skins tone.

This will help your skin look fresh, without looking oily or shiny.

If you want a little shimmer in tone, simply use translucent powder over the lid for a slight glow.

When it comes to dark skin and cheek color, its best to try to contour with blush shades of cocoa, dark peach, cinnamon or dusty pink. Always add a little blush, then examine yourself in natural light before you go back to add more. Its much easier to add more than lighten it if youve gone overboard. However, if you do go overboard on accident, simply use powder or foundation to help tone down your mistake.
Although many dark skinned ladies struggle with oily skin, moisturizing is still very important. In fact, if you dont drink enough water or moisturize properly, your skin will produce even more oil. So, use a light moisturizer that is oil-free every morning and evening after youve cleansed your face. In addition, be sure youre drinking 6 to 8 glasses of water every day to ensure your skin and body stays hydrated.
