A nonscandal

The big rumor on Monday was that Judy Ann Santos and Ryan Agoncillo filed for annulment last week. The couple’s individual camps vehemently denied this. 

Alfie Lorenzo, Santos’ manager, told Rushes: “They just arrived from a vacation in Vietnam.” Noel Ferrer, Agoncillo’s manager, said that Santos had just taped an episode of “Talentadong Pinoy Worldwide” for her husband’s birthday celebration, for airing next week. 

The managers said there was something fishy about the gossip. Lorenzo noted: “Juday never had any scandal in her entire career. Some people are envious.”

Juday, natawa sa annulment nila ni Ryan

Heto na ang shocking news that shook me all night.

Tumawag sa akin ang ilang editors ng broadsheet at tinatanong ako kung bumaba na raw ba 'yung annulment case nina Juday at Ryan? Galing daw sa korte ang balita at ibinaba na raw ang decision.

Malaking "HA?!" ang sigaw ko.

Sinong nag-file? Sinong nagpa-annul? May kapangalan pala sina Juday at Ryan na mag-asawa rin?

Sabi ko, kararating lang mula sa honeymoon sa Vietnam ng dalawa at agree 'yung editor na nakita raw niya sa Facebook 'yung mga litrato nila roon.

Saan daw ba nanggaling ang balitang 'yun? Lalo namang hindi sa akin, wika ko.

Nagtatanong ka pa rin eh pareho tayong similar ang tanong. 

Nagkatawanan na lang kami ng tumawag sa akin nang tatlong beses!

Tinext ko si Juday about it at tulad ng dati na maraming mga babae ang ikinakabit kay Ryan isang mahaba at malutong at malakas na tawa ang isinagot ni Juday sa akin!

Next try, guys and gays!

Judy Ann Santos excited to premier 'Against All Odds'

http://www.sunstar.com.ph/manila/entertainment/2013/03/26/judy-ann-santos-excited-premier-against-all-odds-274833

ACTRESS Judy Ann Santos is excited to premier her upcoming Kapamilya primetime series "Against All Odds".

After the series was moved to a later release this year, Juday shared she started taping again for the series with KC Concepcion and Sam Milby.

She said that she enjoyed working with the two as they have a good working relationship on the set.

"Blessed ako na lagi akong nakakahanap ng katrabahong comfortable, very professional, and nakakamiss din makatrabaho yung mga direktor na kasama namin. Masaya na nakakakita ka ng mga kapamilya sa production every week," she said.

Despite being the lead actress behind the hit television series "Esperanza," "Sa Puso Ko Iingatan Ka," "Krystala," "Sa Piling Mo," and "Ysabella," Juday said she is still nervous on how the audience would react to her new show. The series is a comeback project for Juday after a three-year layoff.

"May kaba. Hindi lang naman ako kinakabahan sa mga proyektong ginagawa ko, lalo na ngayon na may tatlong taon din akong di nakita ng tao sa teleserye. Sana yung expectations hindi masyadong matindi," she said.

But more than anything, she said she is excited to provide quality television series for the Filipino viewers.

"Excited ako kasi pinagkatiwalaan ako ng ABS at ni Sir Deo (Endrinal) sa isang magandang magandang project. Ang trabaho ko na lang ngayon ay mapatunayan na kaya kong itawid itong teleserye," she said.

The actress hinted that she might also do another drama movie this year. Juday said the next couple of months would be the most exciting part of her 2013.

Meanwhile, Juday commented on Jericho Rosales' decision not to join the new primetime series.

She said that as far as she knows, many offers came to Jericho while they were waiting for the start of the taping for "Against All Odds." She said the actor just couldn't turn down such big opportunities.

Juday said Jericho would excel in any acting project to be given to him.
"May mga projects na para talaga sa kanya, may mga projects siguro na hindi rin para sa kanya. Siguro someday (magkatrabaho kami). Sayang lang na hindi natuloy pero mas may magandang opportunity for him," she ended.

Judy Ann Santos returns to drama via Huwag Ka Lang Mawawala

http://www.thechicka.com/judy-ann-santos-returns-to-drama/

Judy Ann Santos is finally back in the acting department. The Young Superstar is currently busy taping for her upcoming teleserye, Huwag Ka Lang Mawawala, with KC Concepcion, John Estrada and Sam Milby. The drama series was previously titled Against All Odds, until Concepcion announced on her Twitter account that it was retitled to Huwag Ka Lang Mawawala.  

Production for the said drama series started last year but was stalled when the lead stars got their hands tied with other projects: Santos for Pinoy Masterchef, Concepcion for X Factor Philippinesand Milby for Kahit Konting Pagtingin. Now that everyone has found time for the series, taping for Huwag Ka Lang Mawawala is in full swing.

Aside from the schedule and title, the series alsoencountered changes in the cast members. The role Estrada will be portraying was previously signed to Jericho Rosales who had to beg off from the series because of the delays.  He decided to give priority to an acting project in Malaysia (read related story) instead of waiting for his co-stars to finish their other commitments.   

Santos said that she is both excited and nervous about her latest TV project. It has been three years since she starred in the teleserye, Habang May Buhay, before laying low in showbiz to take care or her new born son, Lucio. Now that she is back to acting on television, Juday hopes that she could still meet the viewers’ expectations when it comes to drama.

Huwag Ka Lang Mawawala is slated to premier later this year. The cast also includes Mylene Dizon, Empress Schuck, Joseph Marco, Bryan Termulo, Tirso Cruz III, Coney Reyes, Louise Abuel, Susan Africa and Blythe Gorostiza.

MANILA, Philippines - The mother of teen actress Kathryn Bernardo wants the "Princess and I" star to follow in the footsteps of young superstar Judy Ann Santos.

"Sana 'yung career path ni Judai ay makuha niya. Kasi si Judai, ang ganda ng career niya even noong nag-asawa siya. Sana ay ganoon," Mommy Min said in an interview with ABS-CBN News.

Bernardo rose to fame after portraying the role of Mara in the remake of the ABS-CBN drama "Mara Clara." The said role was originally played by Santos.

Min said that just like Santos, her daughter should always give her best in every project.

"Lagi kong sinasabi sa kanya na lahat ng opportunities, give your best. Kaya lahat ng project niya ay pinag-iigihan naman niya," she said.

Bernardo starred in the top-rating primetime soap "Princess and I," which ended last month.

On Daniel

In a previous interview, Min said she has no problems with her daughter's "relationship" with teen actor Daniel Padilla, one of her leading men in "Princess and I."

Padilla and Bernardo recently admitted that they are already in the "MU" or "mutual understanding" stage.

"Sa akin naman, napakaano naman kung wala munang ligaw, okay lang pero wag lang magmadali sana," Min said.

Like Min, Bernardo's father Teddy also appreciates his daughter's friendship with Padilla.

But he asked the actor to not go beyond that -- at least for now.

"Dapat. Naaappreciate ko ang friendship at closeness nila, pero hanggang doon na lang muna," he said.

Last Wednesday, Star Cinema's "Must Be...Love" starring Padilla and Bernardo hit theaters nationwide.

After their movie, the two stars are set to do another TV series.

MANILA, Philippines - Young superstar Judy Ann Santos finally broke her silence on the issue that actor Jericho Rosales will no longer be part of her upcoming series on ABS-CBN, "Against All Odds."
"Well, may mga project na para sa kanya at may mga projects na hindi para sa kanya. But then again, someday, we can't say. Sayang lang na hindi natuloy pero baka mas may magandang opportunity for him," Santos said in an interview on Thursday.
"Naniniwala ako na si Jericho is a good actor and kaya niyang itawid kahit anong project na ibigay sa kanya," the actress added.
Sam Milby, one of the stars of "Against All Odds," said in a previous interview that John Estrada has been tapped to replace Rosales in the upcoming series.
Milby also denied that Rosales backed out of the series because of billing problems. He said the issue was never raised and that it was really a conflict in the actor's schedule that caused the change in the casting.
Meanwhile, Santos shared her excitement as she resumed taping for the soap.
"Nag-resume na kami, nakaka-3 times taping na kami last week," she said.
"Masaya, masaya talaga. Blessed ako na palagi akong nakakahanap ng katrabaho na very comfortable at very professional, at 'yung mga director na kasama namin. Nakakatuwa at nakaka-miss 'yung may pamilya kang nakikita sa production every week. Nakakapanibago lang sa simula pero ngayon ko na-realize na ito pala yung na-miss ko," Santos said.

Malapit nang mapanood ang bagong teleserye ni Judy Ann Santos na Against All Odds. Kasama ng aktres sa nasabing proyekto sina KC Concepcion at Sam Milby. Masaya si Judy Ann dahil nakasama niya ang dalawa sa soap opera sa kauna-unahang pagkakataon.

“Masaya talaga. Blessed ako na lagi akong nakakahanap ng mga katrabahong very comfortable and very professional,” bungad ni Juday.

Kinakabahan daw ang aktres sa kanyang pagbabalik sa pag-arte dahil taong 2010 pa ang kanyang pinakahuling nagawang serye, ang Habang May Buhay.

“Oo naman, may kaba, lalo na ngayon, medyo may tatlong taon din na akong ’di nakita ng tao sa teleserye. Sana ’yung expectations hindi masyadong matindi,” pagtatapat ni Juday.

“Pero sa kabila ng lahat ng ‘yon dahil pinagkatiwalaan ako ng ABS-CBN at ni Sir Deo (Endrinal) ng isang magandang project, ang trabaho ko lang talaga ngayon is kaya kong maitawid itong teleseryeng ito,” giit ng aktres.

Samantala, isang kakaibang pelikula rin ang nakatakdang gawin ni Judy Ann bago magtapos ang taon.

“Surprise na muna. Actually, excited na nga akong sabihin pero ’di ba nga sabi nila huwag mo munang bilangin ang mga sisiw hangga’t ’di pa nagha-hatch? Pero for this year, ito ang pinaka-nakaka-excite na part ng career ko ng 2013. Sana matuloy,” makahulugang pahayag ng aktres.
