  by fapweb  |  Posted in Articles  |  on Fri, Oct 21, 2011

Two films, Mr. Wong, a Robin Padilla starrer, and Hototay, which were selected among the eight official entries to the 2011 Metropoitan Manila Film Festival-Philippines, have been withdrawn.
Robin Padilla made the announcement for Mr. Wong during a press conference held last Thursday while Mother Lily Monteverde announced Hototay’s backing out. However, official letters informing the executive committee of the MMFF-P about the twin decisions have not been forwarded as of this date.
Mr. Wong should have been directed by Trina Dayrit and Richie del Carmen, with Angelica Panganiban as Robin’s co-star, while Hototay would have been directed by Joel Lamangan for Regal Entertainment Inc. and SMDC, starring John Lapus, Ruffa Gutierrez, Andi Eigenmann, Lovi Poe and Melai Cantiveros
Film industry sources said that there is a possibility that Kingpin (The Untold Story of Asiong Salonga) will occupy one of the slots to be vacated. Kingpin stars Laguna Gov. Jeorge Estregan in a SCENEMA Concept International production as directed by Tikoy Aguiluz.
On June 17 this year, the MMFF-P screening committee announced the eight official entries to the 2011 Metropolitan Manila Film Festival (Philippines), based on submitted scripts. The selected entries included Mr. Wong and the following films:

YES! Exclusive: Lucho Agoncillo's first birthday

This November, proud parents Ryan and Judy Ann Agoncillo grant YES! an excusive look at the birthday party of their first-born son, Juan Luis "Lucho" Agoncillo.

With over 115 photos, get an inside look at how the Agoncillos celebrated Lucho's birthday in style last October 9, 2011 at Palacio de Maynila Events Place.

The celebration had an army-inspired theme, thanks to Ryan's penchant for anything military in nature. The venue was made to look like a military barracks, while guests were encouraged to come in fatigue uniforms.

Lucho's young guests also enjoyed the party perks that included arcade games, magic tricks, and a bubble show.

The feature also traces Judy Ann's journey to motherhood, with photos of a pregnant Juday at her intimate baby shower.

Unknown to many, Judy Ann had a hard time conceiving.

Mommy Carol Santos tells YES!, "Marami siyang pag-aanong ginawa... paggamot sa sarili... Parang 'yong egg cells niya, mahina at saka kaunti lang ang nagma-mature. So, pinalakas pa 'yon. Oral treatment 'yon. 'Yong doctor niya, talagang nakatutok sa kanya."

But all the pain and frustration that came with Judy Ann's pregnancy proved to be worth it as a healthy Lucho was born on October 7 last year.

Lucho, which means "little fighter" in Spanish, brings a joy like no other to his parents.

Ryan recalls telling YES! in an earlier interview, "Sabi ko kay Juday, 'Bub, alam mo, nakukyutan ako kay Lucho... pero hindi kaya 'yon dahil sa ako ang daddy?"

To which Judy Ann playfully answered back, "Hindi. Cute talaga siya. Cute ang anak ko!"

The November issue of YES! also gets up close and personal with Miss Universe 2011 third-runner up Shamcey Supsup. Get to know her humble beginnings in Gen San and see how 89 photos have captured the beauty that captivated the rest of the world.

Plus, get to know newly-engaged couple Shalani Soledad and Roman Romulo, only in this month's issue of YES!.

Ryan and Juday Agoncillo: 'Our children - not the halogens on the sets of our movies-light up our lives

NEW BEGINNINGS By Bum D. Tenorio, Jr. (The Philippine Star) Updated October 16, 2011 12:00

More than the klieg lights, what brings celebrity couple Judy Ann Santos and Ryan Agoncillo ultimate joy is their children. They know how to celebrate the moment with their children Yohan and Lucho — the real stars in their lives. 
Very recently, Juday and Ryan sent out an invitation for the first birthday celebration of their son Lucho.
“Come in military uniform,” Juday told me.
“And prepare for war. So, see you there, soldier,” Ryan added.

Lucho celebrated his first birthday at Palacio de Maynila.

Juday and Ryan sounded very excited about the party. In fact, Ryan was very thrilled about Lucho’s first birthday celebration that he already invited me last July when I unwittingly became his passenger at the racetrack of Sepang F1 International Racetrack in Malaysia.
If there’s one thing about the couple, they always are excited about matters that concern their two kids. Their children — not the halogens that brighten the sets of their movies —light up their lives.
So, two Saturdays ago, my BFF Christine Dayrit and I went to Lucho’s party at Palacio de Maynila along Roxas Boulevard and were welcomed by two gold-painted soldiers standing in front as if preparing for an assault. We entered the venue and there we found out that it was a paint ball party that the couple prepared for their son.
Lucho, whose real name is Juan Luis, was handsome in his fatigue uniform as his proud Mommy Juday, Daddy Ryan and sister Yohan (who’s turning seven on Nov. 7) were also dressed for the occasion. I half-anticipated Lucho to wear his favorite pink Chucks but Juday said that pair was already too small for the feet of her son.
The Jessie Sinsioco-catered party that started at 3 p.m. and lasted way through dinnertime did not wear out the jovial celebrant. Never did he throw tantrums nor was he seen tired entertaining his guests. Just like his parents, Lucho was a ball of energy.
Frenetic was the mood of the party. It was graced by other stars who clearly opted to leave their sheen and stature behind them. For example, Sharon Cuneta, while she and her daughters Miel and Frankie were joining a parlor game, ran to her husband Sen. Kiko Pangilinan to get his shoes in what appeared like a bring-me contest. Kiko gamely took off his shoes and went unshod near the stage to watch his family enjoy the party.  
Juday and Yohan also enjoyed themselves to the hilt that they were running around the venue as they participated in more games. Lucho just watched in amazement as he lounged comfortably in the arms of his dad.

Juday and Ryan are hands-on parents. They take turns in bringing Yohan to school. Their social activities outside their home in Alabang are unheard of. After work, they itch to go home.
“I always love to be home to be with my family,” Ryan tells me. In fact, to see their friends, they always host dinners at home.
Outside the gleam of tinseltown, Ryan and Juday are ordinary people who love simple things in life — but everything revolves around food that Juday cooks and the occasional mojitos that Ryan prepares.
Juday, also a chef, is always on an experimental mood when she is in the kitchen, one of the focal points in their home. She loves to cook adobo and sinigang na lechon, Yohan’s favorite. Now that Ryan is on a diet, she serves him South Beach food. As for Lucho, well, Juday says, “He loves sayote and steak. So, a couple of months before he turned one, we started to feed him steak in little portions.” Juday, a dutiful wife and mother, loves it when she serves her family a three-course meal every dinner. “That’s soup, salad and entrée!” she says.
Ryan also swears by the richness and yumminess of his wife’s champorado with Valrona chocolate.
When Juday experimented on different kinds of fried rice recently, she was so happy to invite her friends to drop by their house. I even inherited her recipe of X.O. fried rice.
Juday and Ryan know how to celebrate sincere friendship. Two weeks after their successful “secret wedding” in April 2009, they invited some of their friends in their new home in Alabang. Their house that time was not yet fully furnished that they asked their friends to bring their own chairs. My BFF Christine and I took it seriously and knocked off the car seats so we could have something to seat on inside their beautiful house. But that was two years ago.

“We have no problem with our kids. When Yohan and Lucho wake up in the morning, they always greet us with their smile. They are happy kids,” Juday shared.
“This early, I teach Lucho how to show respect for those who are older than him. I teach him to kiss the hands of the elders or to kiss them on the cheek, not the beso-beso type. He and Yohan always hear it from me: ‘Wear your slippers.’ ‘Close the door.’ Gladly, they heed me,” Ryan says, admitting that he’s the disciplinarian in the house.

For the Agoncillos, their house in the South is their paradise. It’s a happy home because people who adore and love each other live in it.

Judy Ann Santos: dalawang mukha ng isang ina!

 

 

 

 

 

 BY RINO FERNAN SILVERIO

Tulad ng kanyang ipinangako noon na after giving birth to Baby Lucho na pag one year-old na ito, magbabalik-trabaho na siya: ‘yun nga ang ginawa ni Juday (Mrs. Judy Ann Santos- Agoncillo). Nang dumating ang offer na mag-host siya ng isang kiddie reality show, ang ‘Junior Master Chef’ (paligsahan ng pagluluto ng mga batang chef o cook) tinanggap kaagad niya iyon. And she finds it very enjoying and rewarding; una, nag-aaral naman siya ng culinary arts aside from the fact na for a time, nagtayo siya ng isang restaurant noon, di ba? Kaya very happy si Juday dahil bukod sa pag-arte na itinuturing niyang passion niya, nabigyan siya ng pagkakataon na maging show-host sa TV.
Sabi nga ng actress-turned TV host: “Yes, nage-enjoy ako ng sobra. Kasi, ang gaan din ng trabaho. Nagkaroon ako ng pagkakataon na may iba pang matutuhan aside from acting. Big step ito sa career ko.”
Very happy rin si Juday sa patuloy na pagsigla at paglago ng relasyon nila ng asawang si Ryan Agoncillo. Tulad ng alak, habang tumatagal, lalo raw itong sumasarap.
“Sa palagay ko, sa isang relasyon, kailangan kayong mag-unawaan at magbigayan. Hindi puwedeng pareho kayong matigas. parehong pinaiiral ang pride. Importante rin yung open yung communication ninyong dalawa. Hindi naman nawawala yung isyu, yung problema. pero dapat, kayong dalawa lang ang mag-usap at lumutas nun, dahil kayo ang may problema”, sabi pa ng aktres.
Pero sa lahat daw, ang mas nagbibigay sa kanila ni Ryan ng sobrang ligaya- at mas nagpapatibay at nagpapatatag ng kanilang relasyon- ay ang kanilang bunsong anak na si Baby Lucho. Lalo’t araw-araw, habang lumalaki, marami na itong natututuhan.
“Makulit na!”, natatawang pagkukuwento pa ni Juday. “Hindi lang yun, malikot at maingay na. Nagmana sa tatay niya sa kadaldalan. At meron na siyang ugali na kapag ubos na yung pagkain niya at gusto pa niya, sisigaw na yan. At pag na-feel niya na wala ako sa tabi niya, tatawag na yan ng: ‘ma’!”
At this point in her life daw, kung tutuusin ay wala nang mahihiling pa si Juday. Successful ang kanyang showbiz comeback, maganda at patuloy pang gumaganda ang samahan nila ng asawang si Ryan; at bilang pamilya, masasabing kumpleto na sila. May dalawa na silang anak- si Yohan na panganay ay babae; at ang bunsong baby boy na si Lucho. Na ‘apple of the eye’ dinhindi lamang nila ni Ryan, kundi maging ng elder sister nitong si Yohan.
“Lalo pa ngayong malikot at makulit na si Lucho habang nilalaro niya”, sabay tawa pa ni Juday.
Pero hindi lubos ang kaligayahan ni Juday. Bilang ina nina Yohan at Baby Lucho, siya lamang ang nakadarama ng tunay na damdamin ng kanilang adopted baby girl na si Yohan. Mother instinct ang nagsasabi sa kanya, bago pa dumating sa kanilang pamilya si Baby Lucho, marami nang katanungang lumilito sa murang isip at damdamin ng kanilang ampon. Sa kabila ng hindi sila nagkukulang dito ng pagmamahal at atensyon- at inari nila ito sa mula’t-mula pa bilang isang tunay na anak- marami nang katanungan sa isip nito. Kaya raw ingat na ingat sila ni Ryan sa unti-unting pagpapaliwanag kay Yohan tungkol sa tunay niyang pagkatao.
Lalo na nga nung dumating sa buhay nila si Baby Lucho. Mas lalo raw luminaw at mas nagrehistro ang katanungan at emosyong lumilito rito na ‘kakaiba’ siya, dahil ngayon ay si Baby Lucho na nga ang sentro ng atensyon ng lahat. Ngayon pa lang, kahit papa’no, nakakadama na ito ng kaunting jealousy, ng inggit.
“sa ngayon, naka-focus lang kami sa kanya sa page-explain whenever magtanong siya tungkol sa ganito; sa ganyan, in a very honest way. In a manner na parang magkaibigan lang kami na nag-uusap.”
Noon pa raw kasi, madami na itong tinatanong. Kaya madalas, inuunahan na ito ni Juday. “You want still to see your mom? You just let us know ha?”
Pero nagtatapang-tapangan lang si Juday bilang nanay ni Yohan. Ngayon pa nga lang, marami na itong mga tanong na halos hindi na niya masagot. Paano kung lumaki na ito at ang mga katanungang bata na hindi nasasagot ay mauwi sa isang mother and child confrontation? Paano kung sa bandang huli, siya pa ang sisihin nito?
Napa-iling na lang si Juday at sa malungkot na tinig ay sinabi nitong: “Ipinagdarasal ko na lang gabi-gabi na sana paglaki niya, ma-accept niya kung ano ang tunay na nangyari.”
Judy Ann. Ina. Oo, isang ina.

Laughter and tears at launch of coffee table book of ‘Eat Bulaga!’

There were tears – and laughter, too, of course – during the launch of the coffee table book commemorating the phenomenal program "Eat Bulaga!"
The book "Eat Bulaga! Ang Unang Tatlong Dekada" is a celebration of the show’s colorful three-decade history. "Unang tatlumpung taon," stressed host Joey de Leon, as the longest-running show, airing six times a week without fail through political uprisings, revolutions, coup d’ etats, typhoons, earthquakes, remains as strong as ever now on its 32nd year. "Eat Bulaga!" – which has occupied three networks in its 32-year run, is the undisputed number one noontime program. And neither the show nor its hosts – Tito Sotto, Vic Sotto and Joey de Leon or TVJ – seem ready to call it a day.
In jest, Joey even said that Apple founder Steve Jobs, who passed away that day, must have said in his last moments: "Magpapahinga na ako. Ang tarantadong Tito, Vic, at Joey, ayaw pa!"
Seen at the launch celebrating with local comedy’s triumvirate were TAPE president Antonio Tuviera and vice president Malou Choa Fagar.
Of course, the shows dabarkads were in attendance: Keempee de Leon, Pauleen Luna, Julia Clarete, Anjo Yllana, Jimmy Santos, Ruby Rodriguez, Alan K., Toni Rose Gayda, Jose Manalo, Ryan Agoncillo, Wally Bayola, Paolo Ballesteros, Pia Guanio, plus singer Aiza Seguerra, who was, according to the book, a precocious tot when she helped the show regain its number one status in the ‘80s against "Lunch Date."
Former hosts Lougee Basabas, Gladys Guevarra and pinch hitter Lani Mercado, now Cavite Congresswoman, graced the occasion.
The book launch was a family affair with Ryan Agoncillo’s wife, actress Judy Ann Santos and Joey’s wife, former EB co-host Aileen Macapagal in attendance. Joko de Leon, the son of Joey and Aileen, was the one who conceptualized the project.
In full force were the Magalonas to represent master rapper Francis M. – Pia Magalona and sons Elmo and Arkin and daughters Maxine and Clara. Magalona and former Mutya ng Pilipinas title holder Rio Diaz, the two "dabarkads" who have passed away, are given tributes in "Ang Unang Tatlong Dekada." (Incidentally, it was Magalona who coined the term "dabarkads" to encompass the whole "Eat Bulaga!" family behind, in front and beyond the cameras.)
Also given special mention in the book, written by Butch Francisco, are Romy Jalosjos, the show’s big boss, and Chiqui Hollman, its first female co-host.
Also present were GMA executives led by Atty. Felipe Gozon and his daughter, Annette Gozon-Abrogar, Jimmy Duavit, Wilma Galvante and Regal’s Mother Lily and Roselle Monteverde.

Juday not moving to TV5

by Joseph Peter R. Gonzalez Asked about the possibility of moving to TV5 since her husband Ryan Agoncillo is doing very well there, Judy Ann Santos states: “I don’t see it happening at this point. Of course, as stars, we have our choices. But in my case, I’m still okay working with ABS-CBN 2. In fact, I’m so happy with the latest project they’ve given me: Junior MasterChef. I really enjoy doing it because it’s so light and fun.” Many of her avid fans miss her doing a soap opera. “I know! My last was Habang May Buhay which wrapped up May of last year. But my followers need not worry because it’s stipulated in my contract with the Kapamilya that I’ll do a tele-serye. So, let’s wait and see!” The popular actress points out though that her next soap should not be mediocre. “I’m still waiting for a good material. At this point, I’m particular with the story. Is it fresh and interesting, something that I haven’t done before? You see, I’ve been doing tele-seryes for the longest time now. I want my next to be on a grand scale and not just for the sake of having a show. “I can see that as of now, ABS-CBN has lots of able talents who are fielded in the network’s elite lineup of soaps. They are doing well. In my case, I’m just after quality. So if a very good material surfaces and suits me well, then go!” says Juday. Speaking of possible projects, fans are also eager to see her and perennial screen partner Piolo Pascual in a big-budgeted movie once again. “Actually, I’m always asked about that. On my end, there’s no problem. If there’s a meaty project available out there, then, we can sit down and discuss. I’m open to the idea. “Especially now that Piolo and I have already buried the hatchet, so to speak, I see no reason why we can’t work together again. We’ve already settled our past issues. We’re more mature now. I’m certain there’s still something we can offer the viewing public. “The thing is, it’s hard to make a project opposite him right now. After all that we’ve gone through, it would be inevitable for some people to think that we’ll be using each other to make the headlines once more. I don’t want the public to tag us as ‘has-beens’ that’s why we need to reunite on screen. “For now, it is better that we’re on our own. Yes, we can still do a film but not this soon. Anyway, we’re still doing well independently. At least, we can do projects that we really want, right?” Apart from Junior MasterChef, the award-winning actress is presently busy shooting for her upcoming potboiler along with hubby Ryan under OctoArts Films titled My House Husband. “It’s an official entry to the 2011 Metro Manila Film Festival which is directed by Jose Javier Reyes. It’s exciting since after Kasal, Kasali, Kasalo and Sakal, Sakali, Saklolo, Ry and I are back in the MMFF scene. But to correct the wrong notion, this is not a sequel to the first two. This is a new story. But rest assured, it’s as equally appealing and entertaining,” ends Judy Ann.

MANILA, Philippines - Two Kapamilya stars topped the list of celebrities endorsing various products on television.
Based on data from Nielsen, Kapamilya stars Kris Aquino and John Lloyd Cruz are the first and second most popular celebrity endorsers from January to June 2011.
"Maybe because we're star struck naman ever since. Historically, behavior na natin yan ever since," said Eric Barrera, Nielsen Media Director for Client Service, in  a press briefing Wednesday.
According to Nielsen, Aquino leads the list with the number of endorsed brands at 10, followed by Cruz with 8.
The number 3 spot is shared by five celebrities, each promoting 7 brands. They are celebrity couple Carmina Villaruel and Zoren Legaspi, Ryan Agoncillo, Sarah Geronimo and Vic Sotto.
Four celebrities with 6 endorsed products each share the fourth spot, namely Anne Curtis, Marie Lozano, Michael V, and Sharon Cuneta.
Two other Kapamilya stars--Judy Ann Santos and Kim Chiu--share the fifth spot with 5 endorsed products each.
Six other celebrities tied for 6th place with 4 brands each, namely Derek Ramsey, Dingdong Dantes, KC Concepcion, Kim Atienza, Manny Pacquiao and Marian Rivera.
Barrera said that 11 out of 29 product categories have celebrity endorsers.
"The categories that are very popular in terms of celebrity endorsers, number 1 is personal care. The number of celebrities in that category is 56. There are 56 stars," Barrera said.
This is followed next by food with 39 celebrity endorsers, beverages (33), pharmaceuticals (15), home care  and hotels/restaurants and telecom with 10 celebrity endorsers, liquor (9), banking and finance ( 5), automotive (2), and government (1).
"There are so many of them endorsing categories," added Barrera. "They are not necessarily showbiz people. These are known celebrities in their own right," he said

Ryan and Judy Ann Relate to Their roles in OctoArts’ 'My Househusband'

Real life couple Ryan Agoncillo and Judy Ann Santos brings more to the table in their much anticipated Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF) entry, My Househusband, than in projects they have topbilled together in the past.

“We’ve been married for two years now so we know exactly what marriage is about unlike in previous films where it was purely acting,” Ryan said. “Plus we’ve had Yohan and Lucho for quite a time so we can truly say we relate to being parents.”

Proudly produced by OctoArts Films, “My Househusband” is a light comedy about husband and wife who have exchanged roles, at least in the traditional sense; that is, Rod stays at and tends to home while Mia earns a living. They deal with various situations in such a set-up.

Ryan points out that the film is no “andres de saya” tweak. “It’s not as if Rod is a ‘yes’ man. He still gets to wear the pants in the family except that he also dons the apron come meal times,” he said.

The cameras have started grinding for “My Househusband.” It is being helmed by the award-winning Jose Javier Reyes with whom Ryan and Juday worked in 2007's "Kasal, Kasali, Kasalo" and 2008’s “Sakal, Sakali, Saklolo.” Both movies were topgrossers in their respective filmfest seasons creating a lot of excitement for this next franchise from the loveable husband and wife tandem and their favorite director. It wouldn’t be a surprise at all if “My Househusband” will emerge as a great contender once again in the 2011 film festival box-office race.

Ryan is especially excited to do this movie because it is a homecoming of sorts for him who actually began his acting career within the OctoArts camp via his role in the 2005 movie “Kutob.” He said, “Masayang masaya ako because Boss Orly Ilacad was the very first producer who trusted me enough to give me a role in a movie. It’s nice to go back to where you started basically. I know we are in good hands here,” he said.

“Direk Joey is a cool guy. It’s very easy to work with him provided that you come to work prepared---which should be the case anyway,” Judy Ann said. “He knows how to strike the balance between maintaining a happy set and keeping everything running with clockwork precision.”

In reading the script of “My Househusband,” Ryan and Judy Ann found themselves empathizing with the lead characters though not necessarily according to gender. “Some of the things that happen to Mia, I myself have gone through in life,” said Ryan.

“And there were instances when I can relate to how Rod reacts to a situation because I feel I would do the same if it were me,” said Judy Ann. The actress notes that Mia is the supportive and patient kind of wife versus the loudmouthed, obnoxious and strong-willed ones she has played before. Ryan, on the other hand, says Rod is a very principled guy and one with a lot of heart.

The pair is confident that more than entertaining the audience, “My Househusband” gives a realistic idea of what a marriage is like. “You realize that the vow about staying together ‘for better or for worse’ is no lip service,” he said.

Judy Ann rejoined: “If anything, we hope the people would leave the audience enlightened that conflicts actually spice up a marriage if handled correctly. These problems can actually make the husband and wife stronger for their family.”

"My Househusband" under OctoArts Films is an entry to this year's Metro Manila Film Festival.

Verbal abuse raw ni Ryan kay Juday, true kaya?

by Ronnie Carrasco III/Peruse Me Oct 12, 2011 5:53pm HKT

TOO bad for Ryan Agoncillo kung totoo ang balitang he has incurred the ire of his wife Judy Ann Santos’ fans.
Allegedly, ang umano’y (alleged na, umano pa so am I to assume there’s no libel case against me waiting to happen?) verbal abuse na dinaranas ni Juday sa kanyang mister ang ikinagagalit ng mga tagahanga ng aktres.
But please don’t mistake verbal abuse for literal usage of cuss words like the crisp P.I.’s, nothing of that sort. Ang umano’y pananalita ni Ryan tungkol sa intellectual inferiority ng kanyang misis ang tinutukoy na verbal assault.
Hindi namin mapaniwalaan kung ito nga ang dahilan ng uprising ng mga Judy fans against the TV host.
Kung pagi-Ingles o command of the language ang bone of contention sa isyung ito, in fairness, Juday does not have the slightest pretension na Inglisera siya. Napaka-self-effacing pa nga niya pag ang tungkol sa kanyang less proficiency in oral English ang pinag-uusapan.
Still, Ryan has to do a little explaining to his wife’s followers, disproving the rumor. Ang posible pang puwedeng pag-awayan ng mag-asawa ay ang kawalan nila ng oras para sa isa’t isa. Both working parents, baka may kung anong “oral” ang hinahanap-hanap ni Ryan mula kay Juday.
And I don’t mean verbal.

Lucho at Miguel, nagkita

NAG-BIRTHDAY party si Lucho na anak nina Juday at Ryan sa Palacio de Maynila nu’ng Linggo at dumalo si Miguel, ang bunsong anak ni Sharon Cuneta.

Sina Lucho at Miguel, nagkita? Abaw, naulit ang Biblical tale?

At sino si Miguel sa buhay nina Sharon at Senator Kiko? Kiko told me na dumating si Miguel sa buhay nila three days after siyang ipanganak at dinala kay Sharon. Parang si Yohan na dinala rin kay Juday.

Uhum, talagang ‘magkapatid’ sina Shawie at Juday dahil may Yohan din si Juday. Mahal na mahal nila ang mga ‘anak’ nila kahit na hindi nila kamag-anak ang mga ito.

Now, they fully understand kung bakit parang ako ang nagsilang sa apo kong si John-john na hindi ko man kaanu-ano ay sobra ang lambing sa akin eh paanong hindi mo mamahalin nang husto?

Lumalaki si John-john na tila genius dahil ang paborito niyang mga babasahin after his playtime of the latest toys and games sa iPad 2 niya ay mga Ripley’s books at Guinness World Record books, and encyclopedia.

Kaya naman at 10 y/o, ang complete message niya sa akin ay: “To my one and only lolo, I pray always for your long life and good health. I am lucky beside you. When I grow up I will take care of you and protect you. Your loving apo John-john, your one and only apo”.

Gosh! Kaya bang isulat ‘yan ng isang adult?

Flashback kami ni Senator Kiko sa Hong Kong trip namin nina Sharon, Juday and Ryan bago sana siya kakandidato bilang vice president.

I asked him, nagbi*gay-daan na nga siya for Mar Roxas, how come wala siya sa kuwadra ni PNoy like si Mar na secretary na?

Eh kasi pala, may three years pa as senator si Kiko. We’ll know his plans daw come 2013.

***

Sobrang payat ni Sunshine Cruz ngayon. Tinutukso nga siya ni Cesar na nanghihingi raw ng ikatlong anak.

“Ano?! Baka ikaw lang ang may gusto!” ani Shine kay Buboy. Nagsumbong sa akin si Shine na ayaw siyang payagan ni Buboy na magbalik-showbiz eh ang dami raw offers sa kanya.

Sabi ko naman kay Buboy, payagan na niya si Shine na magtrabaho para may pera kami this Christmas.
Ewan ko kung nagbibiro rin si Buboy when he said, “Pag okay kay Ninong Alfie, okay na rin sa akin.”

Inulit lang niya ang sinasabi ko sa mga kumukuha kay Sunshine na, “Tawagan n’yo si Buboy. Pag okay sa kanya, okay na rin sa akin.”

***

Sa nakita kong mga magagandang bata na anak ng mga celebrities din ay sigurado akong hindi tayo kukulangin ng talents sa next generation.

Pogi ang 15-year-old son ni Jeffrey Santos na si Jas. Super pogi ang anak ni Julia Clarete, ganoondin ang son nina Gladys Reyes at Christopher Roxas.

Magaganda sina Butching at Miel na daughters nina Sunshine at Sharon. Luma*laki ring maganda si Yohan.

Mana sa itsura nina Julius Babao at Tintin Bersola ang mga anak nila. Pogi ang dalawang anak ni Mylene Dizon kay Paolo Paraiso.

Nasa party rin ang mga kasama ni Ryan sa Eat Bulaga na sina Ruby Rodriguez at Anjo Yllana. Ang direktor ng PBB na si Direk Lauren Dyogi ay kasama ang misis niya, ganoondin ang kinatawan nina Raymart at Claudine na si Junjun Santiago.

Bukod sa paint ball shootings, nag-enjoy nang husto ang mga bata sa magic ni Alakim.

Ang bukod-tanging in-enjoy ni Lucho ay ang giant yellow cobra na hinimas-himas pa niya onstage.

Ang daming food stand serving hotdogs, siomai, ice cream at iba pa para sa mga bata bukod pa sa usual picture-taking for souvenir photos.

Pag-uwi, may bitbit pang army bags ang mga bata na may lamang mga laruan at sari-saring kakanin.

Indeed, it was a fanta*bulous party for a one year old. Hintayin nating maging teenager si Lucho at tiyak na siya ang maging leader ng mga batang dadalo sa birthday party niya!

Happy birthday, my dear Lucho!

Lucho, suwerte kina Juday at Ryan!

Dumalo kami sa 1st birthday party ng baby nina Judy Ann Santos at Ryan Agoncillo na si Lucho last Sunday sa Palacio de Manila. Aliw kami dahil military ang motif ng party at dinekurasyunan talaga ng mga baril at iba pang gamit ng mga military ang venue.

Napakalaki ng lugar at punung-puno ito ng mga showbiz at non-showbiz friends ng mag-asawa, bukod sa kanilang mga kamag-anak. Namataan namin doon si Sharon Cuneta kasama ang asa­wang si Sen. Kiko at tatlong anak na aliw na aliw sa mga programa na inihanda ng event organizers.
Bukod kay Shawie ay namataan din namin doon sina Mylene Dizon, Ruby Rodriguez, Julia Clarete, Iza Calzado, Anjo Yllana, na siyempre ay kasama ang kani-kanilang mga anak. Marami pang ibang celebrity ang nakita namin doon na nakaligtaan na namin ang mga pangalan.
Sa true lang, hindi problema ang mga pagkain at inumin dahil napakaraming inihanda si Chef Jessie na siyang nag-cater sa event bukod sa mga booth na may iba’t ibang pagkain.
Halos mag-aalas-siyete na ng gabi nang lisanin namin ang lugar at punung-puno pa rin ng mga bisita.

Siyempre, sobrang aligaga ang mag-asawang Ryan at Juday sa pag-iistima ng mga bisita. Suwerteng anak si Lucho dahil matapos siyang ipanganak ay sunod-sunod pa rin ang mga commercial endorsement ng mag-asawa.

Miguel bitbit ni Sharon sa b-day party ni Lucho Lucho, napangiti sa yellow cobra!

Ang birthdate ni Lucho nina Juday at Ryan ay nu’ng Biyernes, Oct.7, pero nung Linggo, Oct. 9 ginanap ang birthday party niya sa Palacio de Maynila na may temang paintball party para sa mga kaibigan nila.

‘Yun kasing mismong b-day ni Lucho, na nag-one year old na ay sinelebra ng pamilya nila. Tulad ng kasal nina Juday at Ryan na pampamilya lang, sinunod ang reception para sa mga close friends nila sa Rockwell. Ganito rin ang ginawa nila for Lucho na sa Palacio de Maynila.

Punung-puno ang venue ng sangkatutak na friends ng mag-asawa led by Sharon and Senator Kiko with their daughters and only son, Miguel. Nandun din si Mylene Dizon with her two makulit sons by Paolo Paraiso with Mylene’s boyfriend Ira.


Bitbit din nina Julius Babao at Tintin Bersola ang mga tsikitings nila. Ganoon din si Julia Clarete na kay pogi ng anak na lalake at listong-listo.
Kasama rin nina Cesar Montano at Sunshine ang two daughters nila.
Pati si Anjo Yllana at mga tsikiting, si direk Kauren Dyogi and misis, Junjun Santiago (brod of Randy & Raymart), Gla­dys Reyes at tatlong tsikiting niya at iba pang mga guests na na-missed namin dahil late na ka­ming dumating ng apo kong si John-John na sa Pam­panga pa galing at uuwi rin ng gabing ‘yun.

Mabuti na lang ‘di bumaha sa lugar nila sa Pampanga at pati exclusive school ni John-John ay naligtas sa baha.


Natural dahil one year old pa lang si Lucho hindi pa niya ma-enjoy nang husto ang party niya and he seems bored throughout the evening. Pero nu’ng umakyat silang mag-anak sa stage at pi­nahawak sa kanya ang yellow cobra ay napa­ngiti ang loko. Lubos din namang nag-enjoy ang lahat ng mga bata sa magic ni Alakim and they kept shouting for “more! more!”


Narito ang ilang exclusive photos na kuha ni Jeff Carpio para sa mil­yones na fans nina Juday at Ryan at ni Lucho na rin na matagal ng nangungulit sa akin ng bagong photos ni Lucho.
Hayan na mga Hong Kong fighters, & Elvie (hoy, wah ka na contact ha), enjoy!!!!

Honeymooners

There’s no truth to the buzz that Judy Ann Santos is verbally abused by hubby Ryan Agoncillo. Whoever concocted that rumor has nothing better to do. Sorry rumormongers, whenever I see Juday and Ryan, they seem like honeymooners.

Juday at Piolo, malabo nang magsama sa isang project (Hindi na raw kasi komportable ang isa’t isa)

Written by Ambet Nabus

Monday, 10 October 2011 00:24

MARAMING fans nina Piolo Pascual at Judy Ann Santos ang nalungkot sa pahayag ni Juday tungkol sa ‘hesitation’ nitong muling makasama sa isang project ang aktor. Halatang hindi komportable ang young superstar at kahit sinasabi nitong hindi siya nagsasara ng isip, maliwanag sa kanyang pahayag na wala ngang pangangailangan sa ngayon para sila’y magsama. Well, nauunawaan namin Mareh ang emote ni Juday dahil sa estado ng karir niya ngayon, ay siya ‘yung tipong hindi nangangailangan magkaroon ng project dahil kailangan lang. Kumbaga Ateh, keri na niya ang mamili ng proyekto at kung sino ang posibleng makasama. Ganoon din marahil si Piolo na in all fairness ay keri namang gumawa ng project kahit kanino niya gusto. So, malabo nga talaga ang sila’y magkasama unless classic in the making ang project at maihahalintulad natin ito sa mga nagawa nina Ate Vi-Boyet de Leon, Pip-Ate Guy, at ibang gaya nilang naging super sikat na love team.        sOURCE:  http://www.hatawtabloid.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=34120%3A-juday-at-piolo-malabo-nang-magsama-sa-isang-project-hindi-na-raw-kasi-komportable-ang-isat-isa&Itemid=73

Ryan Agoncillo and the makings of a champion dad

(The Philippine Star) Updated October 11, 2011

| Zoom

MANILA, Philippines - “As an entertainer and as a father, it is my responsibility to give my best to the viewing public without sacrificing the needs of my family. It’s not an easy task, but if you put your heart and mind into it, everything is attainable.”
These are the words of Aliw Award Hall of Famer Ryan Agoncillo (photo) on how he remains to be one of the most sought-after TV hosts today while fulfilling his new role as a family man. Behind his boyish grin, Ryan possesses a sensible side that makes him a champion host and dad.
One of values that he holds dear is the importance of maintaining credibility. Recently, he started shooting a movie with wife Judy Ann Santos titled House Husband, but he said hosting is far different from acting. “As a TV host, you need to have a commanding presence. Even if you are cracking a joke, you still need to have that credible stance because hosting, in a sense, means leading your audience towards a common belief. You can be funny but you also have to be reliable at the same time.”
Handling a daily hosting job is no easy feat. How does he do it? “You need to be true to your audience. Sincerity is a key factor that defines an effective host. Your viewers must be able to connect with you once you pick up that microphone and step in front of the camera.”
As soon as he wraps up his shooting and hosting gigs, Ryan sees to it that he spends quality time with his family. He is a very hands-on family man, ever involved from the food they eat, the places they go to for leisure, baby-proofing their house, to choosing the right laundry detergent for their clothes.
“These things never really entered my mind when I was a bachelor,” Ryan confessed. “But with kids who are barely toddlers, I have to make sure that they always wear clean clothes because it can affect their health. As head of the family, I now have a new perspective on how I buy household products — I take a more active role in choosing the right products, and making sure that they are only of the highest quality.”
This is why he is greatly impressed with the Champion laundry detergent and how the brand embraces technology and innovation in coming up with products that can clean clothes thoroughly. Ryan admitted being a bit picky when it comes to cleanliness.
Ryan expressed great satisfaction at how Champion gives the best value for Filipino families. He said, “In today’s situation where most consumers look for what’s best for their families, it is really inspiring to see a brand that is reliable and remains true to its promise.”
For Ryan, the true mark of a champion lies in staying focused and dedicated to the goals set from the beginning. Champion laundry detergent never strayed from its commitment to serve more Filipino households since it was launched.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BABY LUCHO!

"Eat Bulaga!" Coffee Table Book Launch

Dumating din sa naganap na launching ang mag-asawang Judy Ann Santos at Ryan Agoncillo. Si Ryan ang isa sa mga pinakabagong addition sa Eat Bulaga!
Nang lumabas na isa na sa Top 20 Celebrity Endorsers ng bansa si Ryan, sa research na ginawa ng YES! Magazine sa taong ito, hindi nagtaka si Malou Choa Fagar. Sabi ng babaeng punong-abala ng Eat Bulaga!: "Dahil yan sa Eat Bulaga!"
Ang ibig sabihin ni Ms. Fagar ay napalapit sa tao si Ryan dahil sa Monday to Saturday exposure niya sa show, na tinatangkilik ng masa. 

Bagamat sa kabilang istasyon nag-e-ere ang kaniyang show na Junior Master Chef, nagpakita ng suprta si Judy Ann Santos sa programang kinabibilangan ng kaniyang asawa.

Judy Ann Santos shares her slimming secrets, talks about being a mommy

STORIES - HOT NEWS by admin posted on October 10, 2011

BY JAMIE ORTEGA PHOTO BY MARK JACOB A visibly slimmer and blooming Judy Ann Santos greeted the press at the Eat Bulaga! coffee table book launch last October 6, 2011 at Whitespace in Makati. She accompanied her hubby Ryan Agoncillo, who is one of the noontime show’s regular hosts. Juday, as she is popularly called, shared her diet secrets to Inside Pinoy Showbiz. She also talked about parenting and her bonding moments with her two kids, Yohan and Lucho. Read on to learn all about it! How is Lucho? Do you still breastfeed him? Yes, nagugustuhan ko, actually. Para sa akin, ang breastfeeding ang pinaka-bonding moment mo with the bagets, eh. Yun ang time na makakapag nilay-nilay ka. Pag nag-bre-breastfeed ako iniisip ko na lumabas ba talaga ito sa tiyan ko? May nabuo ba talagang tao sa tiyan ko sa loob ng siyam na buwan? You’ve lost more than 47 pounds after giving birth. How did you do it? Diet, exercise, no carbs talaga, and as much as possible no drinking talaga. I ate fruits and vegetables. Matagal na ako nag-di-diyeta, kalahati ng buhay ko nag-di-diyeta ako, diba. Baka naman sabihin ng tao na nagyayabang ako pero parang madali ako mag-switch on pag gusto ko mag-diyeta. Half of my life yun ang ginagawa ko.  Hindi ako malakas kumain yun nga lang tabain talaga ako. Wag lang ako makaamoy ng masarap na pagkain kundi meron na akong five pounds sa tiyan, hahaha! Ganun parin, ine-enjoy ko ang pag-di-diyeta kung paano ko sya ginawa before doble lang ang effort ngayon kasi ngayon may exercise saka may mga bata na inaalagan. Who is Lucho closer to, you or Ryan? Pareho. Pag andyan si Ryan lalapit sya kay Ryan, palipat-lipat sya pag andun kami pareho. Feeling ko ninanamnam nya ang moment na kasama nya kami, including Yohan. Lucho’s birthday is coming up. Are you planning any celebration? Simpleng mass sa bahay. Every month we try to give Lucho a little something to in a way thank God for giving him another month to live. Hindi naman bongga ang party ni Lucho, mili-military, parang sako-sako lang ang design, buha-buhangin, bato-bato lang ang design. Hahaha! But what we make it a point to do is video the party kasi si Yohan na-a-appreciate nya nung nakita nya ang DVD ng party nya when she was one year old. Nakita nya kung gaano kadami ang mga tao at gaano sila nag-enjoy. Regine Velasquez is about to give birth. What gift would you want to give her? Nag-o-offer nga ako na mag-cater sa baby shower pero hindi pa kami nag-uusap. Isa sa mga bagay na natutunan ko is when you have a baby shower you give something for the baby, but never really something for the mom. Kung magbibigay ka ng something for the mommy maganda magbigay ng something na oras pag manganganak na sya. Nung nanganak ako na-appreciate ko ang maternity pad, at isang linggo rin akong nasa ospital! Ang ma-a-appreciate ng babae ang mga hindi na nya kailangan bilhin sa ospital like pads, cottons, alcohol, damit ng baby na masusuot nya pagkapanganak, at Betadine.
