Kim Chiu and Maja Salvador patch things up

Time heals all wounds for erstwhile best friends Kim Chiu and Maja Salvador.

It seems that dance princess and The Legal Wife actress was right after all when she recently expressed positivity over mending ties with the teleserye princess as news of their reconciliation made rounds on Monday, March 31.

TV host-columnist Ogie Diaz announced the good news on his Twitter account Sunday night March 30 during Dreamscape's thanksgiving party at a high-end bar in Taguig.

It will be recalled that during Salvador's promo for her first album #Believe, she dropped hints about possibilities of surprising the people of their (Chiu) reconciliation.

Diaz also shared that Kim has also patched things up with Gerald Anderson, her ex-boyfriend and Maja's current boyfriend.

Diaz quoted Chiu saying, "Usap na din sina gerald at @prinsesachinita kanina. Nagbibiruan pa nga sila. All's well that ends well. "Sarap ng walang kaaway!"

While Kim has yet to speak about this good news, Maja on the other hand posted a meaningful tweet on Monday which read: "Goodmorning! Positive monday everyone! #BELIEVE"

Recall that the former best friend's relationship purportedly fell apart upon Gerald's admission that he and Maja are already a couple back in early 2013.

Senator Sonny Angara, criticized for asking question in Filipino

Netizens are criticizing Senator Sonny Angara's move when he asked Binibining Pilipinas candidate in an unconventional way - that is asking in Tagalog. Pia Wurtzbach, a second-time contestant who hailed from Cagayan De Oro and lived in Engaland was thrown this question...

“Ano yung pinakamagandang leksyon na maituturo ng isang babae sa buong mundo?"

Wurtzbach answered, “Ang isang leksyon na maituturo ng babae sa buong mundo ay yung tiwala sa kanyang sarili. Yung intuition po na tinatawag natin. Kapag meron  ka pong intuition alam mo sa sarili mo kung saan mo ilulugar yung sarili mo sa mundo. Kahit na hindi ka sigurado sa nararamdaman mo o sa naiisip mo pero kung alam mo sa intuition mo, then magiging successful ka sa kahit anong gawin mo sa buhay mo.”

(The lesson that a woman may impart to the world is having trust in herself. What you call intuition. If you have intuition you will be able to find your place in the world. Even if you are not sure with what you feel or think, if you are intuitive, then you will become successful in whatever you do in your life.)

Before giving his question, Angara asked Wurtzbach, “Okay lang ba Tagalog (Can I ask it in Tagalog)?” “Opo, pwede ko ring sagutin ng Tagalog kung gusto nyo po (Yes, I can also answer it in Tagalog if you want.),” the contestant answered.

The 24-year old did not win any crown during the Bb. Pilipinas pageant but bagged special awards from the contest sponsors. She received the She’s So Jag Award and was hailed Miss Philippines Airlines.

Fans of the actress, who is a former talent of ABS-CBN’s Star Magic, said it was Angara’s fault why Wurtzbach didn’t place in the competition. Meanwhile, others defended the senator, saying he shouldn’t be the one to blame.

On Angara's Instagram account, the senator posted the criteria for judging the candidates and revealed Intelligence has only 10% of the candidate's score.

Nevertheless, the actress, posted on Instagram, “Grateful that I was able to experience what it’s like to be a part of the pageant world. When I placed 1st runner up last year, I gave all my time, effort & love to my job. I had so much fun! I just tried again because I wanted to know of this was really meant for me. But how do you know if you don’t take chances, right?”

Instagram post of Senator Sonny Angara reveals Intelligence has least importance for judging a beauty queen

Senator Edgardo "Sonny" Angara Jr. was one of the 11 members of the panel of judges at the recently held coronation night of 2014 Binibining Pilipinas pageant. On his Instagram account @sonnyangara, he posted the photo above showing the criteria of judging a beauty queen.

The photo revealed that 50% of candidate's beauty of face was given the highest weight score, beauty of figure with 30%, and Intelligence and Poise & Personality were given 10% each.

The "revelation drew mixed reactions from netizens. Some contested the criteria but some agreed since it's called a "beauty" pageant and not a quiz bee.

mimiyang8833Sana naman ginawa ng 20%

kanmlimKaya sa q and a masyado dehado.tayo sa miss u.

clarissevirginoThis doesn't seem like a fair rubric. Intelligence for only 10%?

louieanlapIt's a beauty pageant. Not a quiz bee.

shang4381Hi @louieanlap. It's not just a beauty pageant. Beauty Queens with "BRAINS" dapat. I agree to some comments, kaya dehado tayo sa International Competitions. Only few can answer well. Of course, given na rin ang being nervous on stage pero iba pa rin ang may alam. Just sayin✌️.

franciscyril1983Wala naman kasing pangit at di sexy sa kanilang lahat kaya 50 agad sa pinaka maganda at 30 sa hubog ng katawan. Ang tanong kasi parang breaker na yan, pwede mong e-10 ang pinaka matalino.

louieanlap@shang4381 actually i prefer na mas malaki ang weight ng poise and personality. Kasi kahit yung di masyado maganda basta carry ng poise and personality niya, kabogera na agad. Daanin sa attitude mga kalaban. And be reminded na sa mga intl beauty pagents, the competition does not happen in the coronation night alone. The competition starts at Day 1 ng pagpunta nila sa host country. Poise and personality will make them stand out and get notice and eventually win.

shang4381Agree din ako dyan @louieanlap... Btw, i'm happy. A fellow Davaoeña won. Thank you. You're kind.

becauseimvalIf that's the criteria, then they were all deserving winners. #justsaying

pinas063@bjdeasis : beauty that's given. After all, they were screened before they make it to the list. Obviously, not a quiz bee, but it is of great importance someone has a good head on her shoulders. As you noticed in intl pageants, the one who has the best answer of the few left, gets home the crown.

xandronietoIts nice that these criteria for judging have been posted. It's not something that's explained in the coronation night... Something has to be modified here, i guess.

rach_rilloI love the 10% for intelligence... To walk straight w/ a crown!

makemeeupmariaI believed di lang s q and a mbaba c @piawurtzbachbut also with the other criterias.... if shes IN kahit 2nd runner-up she have it... to think its just 10% lang ang intelligence... it means na below top 7 pa ang ranking nya... sad reality.. Ugali ng pinoy ang manisi kapag nag fail! Porket di nanalo ang bet nila hahanap ng masisisi! And to think na di lahat gus2 c pia... honestly im not against to ms.pia but shes not on my crown lists!#grwup #justathought

Cherie Gil walks out from taping of Ikaw Lamang

Veteran actress Cherie Gil walked out of the set of the ABS-CBN soap "Ikaw Lamang," Gil posted on her Twitter account Wednesday morning.

Work ethics ? Why can't it exist in the world of soaps? Sadly it doesn't. There must be a better way
— Cherie Gil (@Macherieamour) March 26, 2014

Dreamscape publicity head confirmed the incident on his Twitter account. Eric John Salut said Gil wanted to leave the set of "Ikaw Lamang" at 10 p.m. to attend a send-off party even though she was supposed to shoot her scenes until 2 a.m.

"To set the record straight: Cherie Gil is supposed shoot her scenes till 2AM (the usual cut off) but she wanted to leave at 10PM to attend a send off party. Siyempre, hindi siya pinayagan ng production kasi hindi siya nagpaalam ahead of time.

"She was permitted to a 2-week leave for her musical play. The day she walked out of the taping was the day she resumed taping for Ikaw Lamang. Why blame the production? Why blame the writers? This is not fair! Teka lang ha," Salut wrote.

In one Twitter account, a screenshot was posted allegedly whom Cherie Gil wrote..

According to some talks, the actress gets frustrated everytime the show's lead actor Coco Martin make changes on the script, thus, the actress begs the writers to get some BALLS and finish the scripts properly.

Update : Cherie Gil answers back

You have completely twisted the truth @ericjohnsalut I rest my case. There's nothing more to be said.

Chito Miranda lambasts proposed OPM bill

“Bakit kelangan magbayad ng equity ang foreign acts? We should welcome them! Not drive them off! Hindi yan ang sagot para umunlad ang OPM,” Pinoy rock icon Chito Miranda tweeted his disappointment over the recently proposed OPM (Original Pilipino Music) bill filed by Ifugao Representative Teddy Baguilat Jr.

The OPM Development Act of 2014 or House Bill 4218, when passed, will require foreign acts to pay a so-called Reciprocal Equity Fee before they could hold shows in the Philippines, among other measures.

A report also quoted Baguilat as saying that the bill meant to ”address the displacement of economic opportunity that arises when the foreign artists are here.”

“Sorry uminit ulo ko. Gusto singilin ang mga foreign acts ng mas malaking tax kasi nalulugi daw ang Pinoy acts. Hindi nila kasalanan ‘yun! Kasalanan na (sic) ng mga foreign acts kung bakit kulang ang kita ng Pinoy artists? Dapat nga masaya tayo na pumupunta sila dito eh,” he added.

The 38-year-old musician pointed a finger at illegal copying and selling of locally produced music as the threat. “Dun nalulugi ang mga pinoy artists! Hindi dahil sa foreign acts!”

He proposed, “Kelangan talaga natin ng support mula radio stations and proper enforcement against piracy. That, i understand. Pero higit sa lahat, kelangan natin gumawa ng magagandang kanta kasi papakinggan yan ng pinoy kahit gaano pa kasikat ang mga banyagang kanta.”

Miranda argued that the supposed downfall of local music industry should not be blamed on foreign artists. He maintained that it is the local musicians’ responsibility to enliven the local scene by making music “worth listening to.”

Despite his criticisms, Miranda clarified that he ”appreciate(s) the govt’s efforts to help OPM,” but added, “Let’s do it correctly.”

John Lloyd Cruz, pinagsasampal at kinurot-kurot ni Angelica Panganiban

Sa ginawang presscon para sa bagong endorsement ni Angelica Panganiban, idinetalye nito kung paano niya hinandle ang nangyaring minor bike accident sa boyfriend na si John Lloyd Cruz isang buwan na ang nakaraan.

“Siyempre, mas pinahaba ang pasensiya kasi talagang in pain siya. Hindi makapagsalita ng ilang days, wala siyang kinakain. Water lang talaga ang iniinom niya, puro liquid na lang muna,” ito ang naging bungad ng kapamilya actress sa harap ng press people.

Read related story: John Lloyd Cruz injured at a bike accident in Tarlac

Aniya, nagpaka-Jacklyn Jose (kalmado) siya sa naturang pangyayari at iniwasang magpaka-Ate Vi (hysterical). Saka na lang daw siya umiyak at nakamdam ng panghihina na matapos na ang lahat at makita ang helmet na suot ng aktor na bumuka pagkatapos ng aksidente.

Sa ngayon, nagpapasalamat ang aktres dahil maayos na ang kalgayan ng aktor/boyfriend “Thankful lang ako dahil yun lang talaga ang nangyari sa kanya at wala siyang nabasag na buto. Kaunting tahi lang yung nangyari. Sa ngayon okay na siya, nakabalik na sa trabaho, nakapag-bike na uli,”

Will Daniel Padilla sacrifice religion for love of Kathryn Bernardo?

In the press conference recently held for Kathryn Bernardo's 18th birthday, the kapamilya star admitted religion is one of the reasons why she cannot have a relationship with onscreen partner and special friend Daniel Padilla.

Kathryn who's a member of Iglesia ni Cristo (INC) and Daniel, a Catholic have been rumored to be in a relationship but could not confirm yet to be officially together. As INC member, Kathryn said that she cannot have a relationship with someone who is not a member of her church.

The Kapamilya star admits they sometimes get to talk about their religion, but she doesn’t pressure Daniel into converting into the same faith.

“Sinasabi ko iyon sa kanya pero ayaw ko naman pilitin kasi yung mga tao may kanya-kanyang perception sa religion. Ako rin naman, importante si God, bahala ka kung ano ang paniniwalaan mo.”

Kathryn added that conversion to her religion is a long process and that she once invited Daniel to attend their worship service.

“Kasi ilang buwan na doktrina, tapos ilang months na kailangan mong sumamba.”

Kathryn revealed that a guy who converts to INC for her sake has an edge over other suitors.

“Religion malaking factor siya sa ating lahat. For me, kung mahal mo ang tao, tatanggapin mo kung ano yung tao na iyon like kung ako, kung ganoon ako, kailangang tanggapin ako ng tao.”

So, will Daniel change religion to have a better edge compared to others who likes to pursue Kathryn? Just asking...
