Marco Gumabao's reaction to his photo scandal is just the coolest

Marco Gumabao's reaction to his photo scandal is just the coolest

When photos of Marco Gumabao (allegedly) leaked online yesterday, the kapamilya teen actor posted something on his Twitter account which seemed to puzzle him.
Though he did not mention anything about the photo scandal, Gumabao praised the photoshop skill of "the person" behind the leaked photos.
Early morning of Saturday, Gumabao woke up with his name included on the trending list of Twitter. Looks like he's giving the netizens a nod for the buzz being made about him.

Marco just proved he's game for the new-found "fame" and according to him he's having a good time. But he appealed to netizens to not include his fellow kapamilya star Andrea Brillantes who also had a "video scandal" which exploded a day before his.
What's amusing about this is when someone asked to DM (direct messsage) the link of the video.

Lovi Poe gets hospitalized after being bitten by her pet dog

Lovi Poe gets hospitalized after being bitten by her pet dog

Lovi Poe spent her early morning of weekend inside a hospital room after being bitten by her pet dog. According to an Instagram post of her boyfriend Rocco Nacino, SeƱor (a maltese) and Seth (a shih tzu) had an altercation.

"My poor baby.. Got bitten during SeƱor and Seth's altercation šŸ˜”straight to the hospital now..:(", Rocco wrote on his post.

This is in fact the second time Lovi was bitten by SeƱor, the pet dog which her bestfriend Heart Evangelista gave to her as a gift a few years ago.

We wonder if these dogs had some issue regarding Lovi's #pabebe video posted before the fight.

Watch at your own risk.

What do you think? Anyway, get well soon Lovi. ♥

Court validates Deniece Cornejo's bail petition for Serious Illegal Detention charge filed by Vhong Navarro

Court validates Deniece Cornejo's bail petition for Serious Illegal Detention charge filed by Vhong Navarro

The Regional Trial Court of Taguig City has validated the bail previously given to model Deniece Cornejo last September 2014. TV host/actor Vhong Navarro charged Cornejo and several others a serious illegal detention after he was mauled by the group last January 2014.

In an official statement released and posted by Cornejo's legal counsel, Atty Ferdinand Topacio said that Cornejo was elated by the recent deciosion of the court. Furthermore, Topacio said that the order only shows that bail granted was a validation and that the evidence was weak.

Here's the complete statement:

“Our client, Ms. Deniece Milinette Cornejo, is elated by the recent decision of the Regional Trial Court, Branch 153 sustaining and upholding the previous Order of RTC Branch 271 in Criminal Case No. 153705-TG, which is the Serious Illegal Detention Case filed by Mr. Ferdinand Navarro against her, Cedric Lee, and several other persons.

"By the said Order, the earlier finding that the evidence of the prosecution was weak and that our client should be granted bail, has been given validation.

“Mr. Cornejo is thankful to the presiding judge of Branch 153 for not succumbing to trial by publicity and other pressures being brought to bear by adverse counsel and media organizations and high-powered professional public relations practicioners.

“We have explained to our client that this is but another step in her quest for justice, and we still have a long way to go before complete justice may be finally attained.

Meanwhile, Vhong Navarro and his camp expressed their disappointment and questioned the court's decision. In a statement sent by Navarro's counsel, Atty. Alma Mallonga, to entertainment website pep.ph, the feisty lady lawyer said the battle will still continue while abiding the law.

“Judge Mariam Bien, while confirming the grant of bail to Cedric Lee, Deniece, & Zimmer, goes on to say that the ‘prosecution is not being left with an empty bag’ and that ‘it has not yet gone to the heart of the case.’

“What that means, even as the prosecution tries to assess its remedies from the 2.5 page order, is that Vhong's quest for justice continues."

“The evidence is clear and undisputed."

“We will fight to the very end. Tuloy ang laban.”

The Breakup Playlist starring Sarah Geronimo and Piolo Pascual earns P15 million on its opening day

The Breakup Playlist earns P15 million on its opening day

The Breakup Playlist, the latest romantic-comedy movie from Star Cinema which stars Sarah Geronimo and Piolo Pascual, made 15 million pesos on its first day on cinemas nationwide.

The figure was revealed by Star Cinema's AdProm executive Mico Del Rosario @micodelrosario1 on his Instagram account.


Some showbiz observers looked at the figures a little below their expectations as both lead actors were box office drawers.

Geronimo, three-time Box Office Queen awardee, had already made a billion pesos for her movies in the past. Pascual, on the other hand, the reigning Box Office King, made half a billion pesos for his last movie Starting Over Again with Toni Gonzaga.

Directed by Dan Villegas (English Only Please), from the script of Antoinette Jadaone (That Thing Called Tadhana), The Breakup Playlist tells a story about an aspiring professional singer and a rock singer who collaborate in a song. As they work on their song, they start to develop feelings for each other.
