1. Merienda. Where else is it normal to eat five times a day?
2. Sawsawan. Assorted sauces that guarantee freedom of choice, enough room for experimentation and maximum tolerance for diverse tastes. Favorites: toyo’t calamansi, suka at sili, patis.
3. Kuwan, ano. At a loss for words? Try these and marvel at how Pinoys understand exactly what you want.
4. Pinoy humor and irreverence. If you’re api and you know it, crack a joke. Nothing personal, really.
5. Tingi. Thank goodness for small entrepreneurs. Where else can we buy cigarettes, soap, condiments and life’s essentials in small affordable amounts?
6. Spirituality. Even before the Spaniards came, ethnic tribes had their own anitos, bathalas and assorted deities, pointing to a strong relationship with the Creator, who or whatever it may be.
7. Po, opo, mano po. Speech suffixes that define courtesy, deference, filial respect–a balm to the spirit in these aggressive times.
8. Pasalubong. Our way of sharing the vicarious thrills and delights of a trip, and a wonderful excuse to shop without the customary guilt.
9. Beaches! With 7,000 plus islands, we have miles and miles of shoreline piled high with fine white sand, lapped by warm waters, and nibbled by exotic tropical fish. From the stormy seas of Batanes to the emerald isles of Palawan –over here, life is truly a beach.
10. Bagoong. Darkly mysterious, this smelly fish or shrimp paste typifies the underlying theme of most ethnic foods: disgustingly unhygienic, unbearably stinky and simply irresistible.
11. Bayanihan. Yes, the internationally-renowned dance company, but also this habit of pitching in still common in small communities. Just have that cold beer and some pulutan ready for the troops.
12. The Balikbayan box. Another way of sharing life’s bounty, no matter if it seems like we’re fleeing Pol Pot every time we head home from anywhere in the globe. The most wonderful part is that, more often than not, the contents are carted home to be distributed.
13. Pilipino komiks. Not to mention “Hiwaga,” “Aliwan,” “Tagalog Classics,” “Liwayway” and”Bulaklak” magazines. Pulpy publications that gave us Darna, Facifica Falayfay, Lagalag, Kulafu, Kenkoy, Dyesebel, characters of a time both innocent and worldly.
14. Folk songs. They come unbidden and spring, full blown, like a second language, at the slightest nudge from the too-loud stereo of a passing jeepney or tricycle.
15. Fiesta. Eat, drink and be merry, for tomorrow is just another day, shrugs the poor man who, once a year, honors a patron saint with this sumptuous, no-holds-barred spread. It’s a Pinoy celebration at its pious and riotous best.
16. Aswang, manananggal, kapre. The whole underworld of Filipino lower mythology recalls our uniquely bizarre childhood, that is, before political correctness kicked in. Still, their rich adventures pepper our storytelling.
17. Jeepneys. Colorful, fast, reckless, a vehicle of postwar Pinoy ingenuity, this Everyman’s communal cadillac makes for a cheap, interesting ride. If the driver’s a daredevil (as they usually are), hang on to your seat.
18. Dinuguan. Blood stew, a bloodcurdling idea, until you try it with puto. Best when mined with jalape¤o peppers. Messy but delicious.
19. Santacruzan. More than just a beauty contest, this one has religious overtones, a tableau of St. Helena’s and Constantine ’s search for the Cross that seamlessly blends piety, pageantry and ritual. Plus, it’s the perfect excuse to show off the prettiest ladies–and the most beautiful gowns.
20. Balut. Unhatched duck’s embryo, another unspeakable ethnic food to outsiders, but oh, to indulge in guilty pleasures! Sprinkle some salt and suck out that soup, with gusto.
21. Pakidala. A personalized door-to-door remittance and delivery system for overseas Filipino workers who don’t trust the banking system, and who expect a family update from the courier, as well.
22. Choc-nut. Crumbly peanut chocolate bars that defined childhood ecstasy before M & M’s and Hershey’s.
23. Kamayan style. To eat with one’s hand and eschew spoon, fork and table manners–ah, heaven.
24. Chicharon. Pork, fish or chicken crackling. There is in the crunch a hint of the extravagant, the decadent and the pedestrian. Perfect with vinegar, sublime with beer.
25. Pinoy hospitality. Just about everyone gets a hearty “Kain tayo!” invitation to break bread with whoever has food to share, no matter how skimpy or austere it is.
26. Adobo, kare-kare, sinigang and other lutong bahay stuff. Home-cooked meals that have the stamp of approval from several generations, who swear by closely-guarded cooking secrets and family recipes.
27. Lola Basyang. The voice one heard spinning tales over the radio, before movies and television curtailed imagination and defined grown-up tastes.
28. Pambahay. Home is where one can let it all hang out, where clothes do not make a man or woman but rather define their level of comfort.
29. Tricycle and trisikad, the poor Pinoy’s taxicab that delivers you at your doorstep for as little as PHPesos3.00, with a complimentary dusting of polluted air.
30. Dirty ice cream. Very Pinoy flavors that make up for the risk: munggo, langka, ube, mais, keso, macapuno. Plus there’s the colorful cart that recalls jeepney art.
31. Yayas. The trusted Filipino nanny who, ironically, has become a major Philippine export as overseas contract workers. A good one is almost like a surrogate parent–if you don’t mind the accent and the predilection for afternoon soap and movie stars.
32. Sarsi. Pinoy rootbeer, the enduring taste of childhood. Our grandfathers had them with an egg beaten in.
33. Pinoy fruits. Atis, guyabano, chesa, mabolo, lanzones, durian, langka, makopa, dalanghita, siniguelas, suha, chico , papaya, singkamas–the possibilities!
34. Filipino celebrities. Movie stars, broadcasters, beauty queens, public officials, all-around controversial figures: Aurora Pijuan, Cardinal Sin, Carlos P. Romulo, Charito Solis, Cory Aquino, Emilio Aguinaldo, the Eraserheads, Fidel V. Ramos, Francis Magalona, Gloria Diaz, Manuel L. Quezon, Margie Moran, Melanie Marquez, Ninoy Aquino, Nora Aunor, Pitoy Moreno, Ramon Magsysay, Richard Gomez, San Lorenzo Ruiz, Sharon Cuneta, Gemma Cruz, Erap, Tiya Dely, Mel and Jay, Gary V.
35. World class Pinoys who put us on the global map: Lea Salonga, Paeng Nepomuceno, Eugene Torre, Luisito Espinosa, Lydia de Vega-Mercado, Jocelyn Enriquez, Elma Muros, Onyok Velasco, Efren “Bata” Reyes, Lilia Calderon-Clemente, Loida Nicolas-Lewis, Josie Natori.
36. Pinoy tastes.. A dietitian’s nightmare: too sweet, too salty, too fatty, as in burong talangka, itlog na maalat, crab fat (aligue), bokayo, kutchinta, sapin-sapin, halo-halo, pastilyas, palitaw, pulburon, longganisa, tuyo, ensaymada, ube haleya, sweetened macapuno and garbanzos. Remember, we’re the guys who put sugar (horrors) in our spaghetti sauce. Yum!
37. The sights. Banaue Rice Terraces, Boracay, Bohol’s Chocolate Hills, Corregidor Island, Fort Santiago, the Hundred Islands, the Las Pi?s Bamboo Organ, Rizal Park, Mt. Banahaw, Mayon Volcano, Taal Volcano. A land of contrasts and ever-changing landscapes.
38. Gayuma, agimat and anting-anting. Love potions and amulets. How the socially-disadvantaged Pinoy copes.
39. Barangay Ginebra, Jaworski, PBA, MBA and basketball. How the verticaly-challenged Pinoy compensates, via a national sports obsession that reduces fans to tears and fistfights.
40. People Power at EDSA. When everyone became a hero and changed Philippine history overnight.
41. San Miguel Beer and pulutan. “Isa pa nga!” and the Philippines’ most popular, world-renowned beer goes well with peanuts, corniks, tapa, chicharon, usa, barbecue, sisig, and all manner of spicy, crunchy and cholesterol-rich chasers.
42. Resiliency. We’ve survived 400 years of Spanish rule, the US bases, Marcos, the 1990 earthquake, lahar, lambada, Robin Padilla, and Tamagochi. We’ll survive Erap.
43. Yoyo. Truly Filipino in origin, this hunting tool, weapon, toy and merchandising vehicle remains the best way to “walk the dog” and “rock the baby,” using just a piece of string.
44. Pinoy games: Pabitin, palosebo, basagan ng palayok. A few basic rules make individual cunning and persistence a premium, and guarantee a good time for all.
45. Ninoy Aquino. For saying that “the Filipino is worth dying for,” and proving it.
46. Balagtasan. The verbal joust that brings out rhyme, reason and passion on a public stage.
47. Tabo. All-powerful, ever-useful, hygienically-triumphant device to scoop water out of a bucket _ and help the true Pinoy answer nature’s call. Helps maintain our famously stringent toilet habits.
48. Pandesal. Despite its shrinking size, still a good buy. Goes well with any filling, best when hot.
49. Jollibee. Truly Pinoy in taste and sensibility, and a corporate icon that we can be quite proud of. Do you know that it’s invaded the Middle East , as well?
50. The butanding, the dolphins and other creatures in our blessed waters. They’re Pinoys, too, and they’re here to stay. Now if some folks would just stop turning them into daing.
51. Pakikisama. It’s what makes people stay longer at parties, have another drink, join pals in sickness and health. You can get dead drunk and still make it home.
52. Sing-a-long. Filipinos love to sing, and thank God a lot of us do it well!
53. Kayumanggi. Neither pale nor dark, our skin tone is beautifully healthy, the color of a rich earth or a mahogany tree growing towards the sun.
54. Handwoven cloth and native weaves. Colorful, environment-friendly alternatives to polyester that feature skillful workmanship and a rich indigenous culture behind every thread. From the pinukpok of the north to the malong of the south, it’s the fiber of who we are.
55. Movies. Still the cheapest form of entertainment, especially if you watch the same movie several times.
56. Bahala na. We cope with uncertainty by embracing it, and are thus enabled to play life by ear.
57. Papaitan. An offal stew flavored with bile, admittedly an acquired taste, but pointing to our national ability to acquire a taste for almost anything.
58. English. Whether carabao or Arr-neoww-accented, it doubles our chances in the global marketplace.
59. The Press. Irresponsible, sensational, often inaccurate, but still the liveliest in Asia . Otherwise, we’d all be glued to TV.
60. Divisoria. Smelly, crowded, a pickpocket’s paradise, but you can get anything here, often at rock-bottom prices. The sensory overload is a bonus.
61. Barong Tagalog. Enables men to look formal and dignified without having to strangle themselves with a necktie. Worn well, it makes any ordinary Juan look marvelously makisig.
62. Filipinas. They make the best friends, lovers, wives. Too bad they can’t say the same for Filipinos.
63. Filipinos. So maybe they’re bolero and macho with an occasional streak of generic infidelity; they do know how to make a woman feel like one.
64. Catholicism. What fun would sin be without guilt? Jesus Christ is firmly planted on Philippine soil.
65. Dolphy. Our favorite, ultra-durable comedian gives the beleaguered Pinoy everyman an odd dignity, even in drag.
66. Style. Something we often prefer over substance. But every Filipino claims it as a birthright.
67. Bad taste. Clear plastic covers on the vinyl-upholstered sofa, posters of poker-playing dogs masquerading as art, overaccessorized jeepneys and altars–the list is endless, and wealth only seems to magnify it.
68. Mangoes. Crisp and tart, or lusciously ripe, they evoke memories of family outings and endless sunshine in a heart-shaped package.
69. Unbridled optimism. Why we rank so low on the suicide scale.
70. Street food: Barbecue, lugaw, banana-cue, fishballs, IUD (chicken entrails), adidas (chicken feet), warm taho. Forget hepatitis; here’s cheap, tasty food with gritty ambience.
71. The siesta. Snoozing in the middle of the day is smart, not lazy.
72. Honorifics and courteous titles: Kuya, ate, diko, ditse, ineng, totoy, Ingkong, Aling, Mang, etc. No exact English translation, but these words connote respect, deference and the value placed on kinship.
73. Heroes and people who stood up for truth and freedom. Lapu-lapu started it all, and other heroes and revolutionaries followed: Diego Silang, Macario Sakay, Jose Rizal, Andres Bonifacio, Apolinario Mabini, Melchora Aquino, Gregorio del Pilar, Gabriela Silang, Miguel Malvar, Francisco Balagtas, Juan Luna, Marcelo H. del Pilar, Panday Pira, Emilio Jacinto, Raha Suliman, Antonio Luna, Gomburza, Emilio Aguinaldo, the heroes of Bataan and Corregidor, Pepe Diokno, Satur Ocampo, Dean Armando Malay, Evelio Javier, Ninoy Aquino, Lola Rosa and other comfort women who spoke up, honest cabbie Emilio Advincula, Rona Mahilum, the women lawyers who didn’t let Jalosjos get away with rape.
74. Flora and fauna. The sea cow (dugong), the tarsier, calamian deer, bearcat, Philippine eagle, sampaguita, ilang-ilang, camia, pandan, the creatures that make our archipelago unique.
75. Pilipino songs, OPM and composers: “Ama Namin,” “Lupang Hinirang,” “Gaano Ko Ikaw Kamahal,” “Ngayon at Kailanman,” “Anak,” “Handog,”"Hindi Kita Malilimutan,” “Ang Pasko ay Sumapit”; Ryan Cayabyab, George Canseco, Restie Umali, Levi Celerio, Manuel Francisco, Freddie Aguilar, and Florante–living examples of our musical gift.
76. Metro Aides. They started out as Imelda Marcos’ groupies, but have gallantly proven their worth. Against all odds, they continuously prove that cleanliness is next to godliness–especially now that those darned candidates’ posters have to be scraped off the face of Manila !
77. Sari-sari store. There’s one in every corner, offering everything from bananas and floor wax to Band-Aid and bakya.
78. Philippine National Red Cross. PAWS. Caritas. Fund drives. They help us help each other.
79. Favorite TV shows through the years: “Tawag ng Tanghalan,” “John and Marsha,” “Champoy,” “Ryan, Ryan Musikahan,” “Kuwarta o Kahon,” “Public Forum/Lives,” “Student Canteen,” “Eat Bulaga.” In the age of inane variety shows, they have redeemed Philippine television.
80. Quirks of language that can drive crazy any tourist listening in: “Bababa ba?” “Bababa!”
81. “Sayang!” “Naman!” “Kadiri!” “Ano ba!?” “pala.” Expressions that defy translation but wring out feelings genuinely Pinoy.
82. Cockfighting. Filipino men love it more than their wives (sometimes).
83. Dr. Jose Rizal. A category in himself. Hero, medicine man, genius, athlete, sculptor, fictionist, poet, essayist, husband, lover, samaritan, martyr. Truly someone to emulate and be proud of, anytime, anywhere.
84. Nora Aunor. Short, dark and homely-looking, she redefined our rigid concept of how leading ladies should look.
85. Noranian or Vilmanian. Defines the friendly rivalry between Ate Guy Aunor and Ate Vi Santos and for many years, the only way to be for many Filipino fans.
86. Filipino Christmas. The world’s longest holiday season. A perfect excuse to mix our love for feasting, gift-giving and music and wrap it up with a touch of religion.
87. Relatives and kababayan abroad. The best refuge against loneliness, discrimination and confusion in a foreign place. Distant relatives and fellow Pinoys readily roll out the welcome mat even on the basis of a phone introduction or referral.
88. Festivals: Sinulog, Ati-atihan, Moriones. Sounds, colors, pagan frenzy and Christian overtones.
89. Folk dances. Tinikling, pandanggo sa ilaw, kari?sa, kuratsa, itik-itik, alitaptap, rigodon. All the right moves and a distinct rhythm.
90. Native wear and costumes. Baro’t saya, tapis, terno, saya, salakot, bakya. Lovely form and ingenious function in the way we dress.
91. Sunday family gatherings. Or, close family ties that never get severed. You don’t have to win the lotto or be a president to have 10,000 relatives. Everyone’s family tree extends all over the archipelago, and it’s at its best in times of crisis; notice how food, hostesses, money, and moral support materialize during a wake?
92. Calesa and karitela. The colorful and leisurely way to negotiate narrow streets when loaded down with a year’s provisions.
93. Quality of life. Where else can an ordinary employee afford a stay-in helper, a yaya, unlimited movies, eat-all-you-can buffets, the latest fashion (Baclaran nga lang), even Viagra in the black market?
94. All Saints’ Day. In honoring our dead, we also prove that we know how to live.
95. Handicrafts. Shellcraft, rattancraft, abaca novelties, woodcarvings, banig placemats and bags, bamboo windchimes, etc. Portable memories of home. Hindi lang pang-turista, pang-balikbayan pa!
96. Pinoy greens. Sitaw. Okra. Ampalaya. Gabi. Munggo. Dahon ng Sili. Kangkong. Luya. Talong. Sigarillas. Bataw. Patani. Lutong bahay will never be the same without them.
97. OCWs. The lengths (and miles) we’d go for a better life for our family, as proven by these modern-day heroes of the economy.
98. The Filipino artist. From Luna’s magnificent “Spoliarium” and Amorsolo’s sun-kissed ricefields, to Ang Kiukok’s jarring abstractions and Borlongan’s haunting ghosts, and everybody else in between. Hang a Filipino painting on your wall, and you’re hanging one of Asia ’s best.
99. Tagalog soap operas. From “Gulong ng Palad” and “Flor de Luna” to today’s incarnations like “Mula sa Puso”–they’re the story of our lives, and we feel strongly for them, MariMar notwithstanding.
100. Midnight madness, weekends sales, bangketas and baratillos. It’s retail therapy at its best, with Filipinos braving traffic, crowds, and human deluge to find a bargain.

Maraming negative reactions ang nabuo sa sinabi ni Mariel Rodriguez na “Kadiri ang showbiz” sa loob ng Pinoy Big Brother (PBB) house habang kausap ang celebrity housemate na si Jon Avila.

Hindi matanggap ng ilan sa mga kaibigan ni Mariel sa showbiz ang sinabi niya. Nag-aalala tuloy sila na baka hindi ang totoong Mariel ang sweet at palabating TV host ang nakakahalubilo nila sa mga showbiz gatherings. Hindi raw ba muna nag-isip ang TV host bago nagbitiw ng ganitong salita, considering na host pa naman siya ng isang showbiz-oriented talk show sa ABS-CBN, ang Entertainment Live.

“Malaking tulong si Mariel sa loob ng Bahay. At the same time, dahil sa kanya mataas ang ratings ng show,” diin ng aming source.

Ayon pa sa aming source, mismong si Mr. Gabby Lopez daw na may-ari ng ABS-CBN ang may gusto na manatili pa sa PBB house si Mariel.

Philippine Scandals

 

Kung si Joey De Leon ang tatanungin, hindi pa rin tapos ang issue sa pagitan nila ni Willie Revillame. Hindi raw niya kayang magpakaplastik na matapos siyang saksakin sa likod ay bigla na lang siyang makikipagbati. May damage daw na nagawa sa kanya si Willie dahil na-single out siya nito nang magbulalas ito ng sama ng loob on national TV. Na para bang lumabas siyang masamang tao sa buong mundo dahil sa diumano’y personal attack niya kay Willie. Napapanood kasi ang Wowowee sa TFC (The Filipino Channel) abroad.

Wala umano si Joey na galit sa puso niya para kay Willie. Nagtataka lang siya kung bakit naibaling na sa kanya ang issue gayong hanggang ngayon ay hindi pa rin diumano nagpapaliwanag si Willie sa publiko kung ano ang nangyari sa segment ng ‘Wilyonaryo’ noong August 20. Na dahil sa napanood niya ng personal ang video na nakaupload sa Youtube.com, naniniwala siyang may kaduda-dudang naganap sa show. Na kung may pandaraya man o wala, dapat ay ipaliwanag ito sa tao.

Mula nga nang pumutok ang issue ng diumano’y dayaan sa Wowowee segment, panay na rin ang pasaring ni Joey sa Eat Bulaga. Sinulat niya rin sa kanyang column ang kanyang opinyon tungkol sa nangyari pero walang diretsong patungkol sa show ni Willie.

Katwiran ni Joey, hindi siya nag-uumpisa ng gulo. Mabait siyang tao pero pilyo. Kung kantihin man siya, siguradong reresbak siya at mas masakit pa ang kaya niyang sabihin. Nag-joke din ang TV host comedian na bakit puro babae ang mga co-host ni Willie sa show niya, ano raw ba sila night club? Sinagot din ni Joey ang patama sa kanya ni Willie na subukan niyang mag-host ng programa ng mag-isa. Kung tutuusin, sa yaman daw ng ABS-CBN ay kaya nitong bigyan si Willie ng 15 hosts pero mukhang hindi naman daw nito gugustuhin ‘yon dahil sa kayabangan niyang masolo ang programa.

Natatawa na rin si Joey sa mga naglalabasan sa diyaryo na parang siya pa raw ang lumalabas na nanggagamit sa issue. Hindi na raw niya kailangang gawin ‘yun sa tinagal-tagal na niya sa industriya na may halos apat na dekada na.

Nauna nang lumabas ang balitang pinipirata umano ng GMA 7 si Ai Ai delas Alas from her home network, ABS-CBN. Galing mismo ang balita kay Ai Ai na lumabas naman sa pahayagan. Sinabi niyang pumirma na siya ng contract with the Kapuso network. Too late na para bawiin pa ito ni Ai Ai dahil lumabas na ang balita sa isang broadsheet. Sinabi niyang na-carried away siya sa naging usapan nila ni Wilma Galvante ng GMA 7. Bibigyan daw siya ng solo na TV show.

Confused si Ai Ai dahil bago siya umalis papuntang Ireland ay nakapag-usap naman sila ng executives ng ABS-CBN. Naging emotional daw siya sa pakikipag-usap dito dahil may sama na rin siya ng loob sa istasyon dahil sa pagkakatengga ng kanyang career for the last nine months. Technically, hindi na obligado si Ai Ai mag-stay sa ABS-CBN dahil noong February 2006 pa nag-expire ang kanyang contract. Pero nagstay pa rin siya dahil alam niyang abot-langit ang utang na loob niya sa Kapamilya network.
Sa paglabas ng balitang ito, to the rescue si Boy Abunda para gumawa ng damage control. Wala na si Ai Ai sa bansa para bawiin pa ang mga salitang nabitawan niya. Kaya naman nagsalita na lang on her behalf ang manager niya para mag-apologize sa GMA 7 particularly kay Wilma Galvante para sa kung anumang inconvenience ang nagawa ni Ai Ai sa kanila.

Nireiterate ni Boy na magsestay ang kanyang alaga sa bakuran ng ABS-CBN. Pero hindi niya dineny na posibleng may pag-uusap na naganap sa pagitan nila Ai Ai at GMA 7 pero definitely exploratory talks lamang ito. Hindi naman daw kasi remote ang possibility na makapag-usap ang two camps dahil hanggang ngayon ay maganda pa rin ang relationship ni Ai Ai sa Kapuso network executives.

---

Ano sa tingin nyo? gusto ba ni Ai Ai lumipat at napigilan lang? sa tingin ko, nag counter-offer ang ABSCBN sa binigay ng GMA kasi, ang dami ng naglipatan sa kapamilya at ayaw siguro ng abscbn na may mga lumipat sa kapuso.

Nagpapaganda nang husto ng katawan ngayon ang teen star-turned-sexy actor na si Andrew Schimmer. Siya kasi ang leading man ng FHM cover girl na si Cristine Reyes sa launching movie nito na Green Paradise.

 

“Tsaka hindi lang dahil sa movie. Siyempre ngayon, kapag lalake ka at artista ka, at pangit ang katawan mo, parang walang kuwenta,” sabi ni Andrew sa panayam sa kanya ng PEP (Philippine Entertainment Portal).

 

Kaya nga kapag may oras din lang siya, naggugugol talaga ng panahon si Andrew sa pagdyi-gym. Although lately, sa sobrang busy ng schedule niya for his shooting at pagiging newest image model ng CD Jeans with Nadine Samonte, hindi niya ito nagagawang regular.

 

“Hindi, kasi hindi ka naman puwedeng mag-workout talaga pag kulang ka sa tulog, e. Sayang ‘yung pagod mo,” sabi niya.

 

Ano ang pinaka-sexy na eksena na na-shoot na nila ni Cristine para sa Green Paradise?

 

“So far, ang pinaka-daring na nagawa ko na, siguro ‘yung naglabas ako ng puwet,” sagot niya.

 

Hindi naman daw niya totally hinubad ang briefs niya during the scene, na love scene nila actually ni Cristine.

 

“Naka-underwear naman ako, e. Pero nakababa lahat sa likod, tapos nakatakip lang sa mismong ano ko, nakataas ‘yung underwear. Hindi tinanggal kasi nakatalikod naman po ako actually, hindi naman talaga kita. So ang kita lang, ‘yung likod ko.” 

 

Tinablan ba si Andrew sa eksenang nilang ‘yon ni Cristine?

 

“Wala, e,” bulalas niya. “Kasi wala naman, siguro merong konti…pero sanay na ako kay Cristine, e. Ibig sabihin, para ko na lang siyang kapatid.”

 

Kahit kaunti, hindi nag-init ang pakiramdam ni Andrew during the scene?

 

“Meron sigurong konti, ‘yung may pitik lang, ‘yung gano’n lang. Tapos nawala din agad, lumambot din!” halakhak niya.

 

May frontal nudity ba siya sa pelikula?

In anticipation of the premiere of the reality TV show shot in Hollywood, Hollywood Boot Camp, Bigfoot Entertainment and QTV-11 revealed the identities of the eight Filipinos who made it to the finals, Hollywood Boot Camp brought eight young Filipinos to Los Angeles for the once-in-a-lifetime chance to participate in the filming of a Hollywood film, Bigfoot’s horror flick Midnight Movie.

 

At the end of Hollywood Boot Camp, one winner will walk away with $10,000 or a film package worth $20,000 that can be used to start a film project. This film development package includes the use of Bigfoot’s state-of-the-art production and post-production facilities and equipment in Mactan, Cebu. The winner will also receive a two-year contract with Bigfoot and guaranteed work on Bigfoot’s international film projects.

From a month-long nationwide casting process that covered universities and film organizations in Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao, the following were chosen as the eight most eligible:

Apple Pueblo. This 22-year-old editor is easy-going, with a passion for film and the desire to learn new skills such as acting and cinematography. While Hollywood Boot Camp is the perfect avenue for learning, it also is a contest, but compliant Apple prefers to simply submit herself to the judges’ decision. This lack of feistiness could walk her away from the prize.

Arvin Trinidad. This actor swore to be himself all throughout the competition, “I’m just going to be me. Ironic but actors can be more of themselves compared to non-actors. It’s because the actors search for the truth. I am real.” Transparency is a virtue, but in a competition, it’s an undoing.

Denise Aguado. Twenty-year-old student Denise is the youngest contestant in the competition. She is also arguably the most confident. She has been quoted as saying that she is willing to do anything to win. Can Denise handle her youth and lack of experience so that she survives against the older, more experienced contestants?

Domenico “Minco” Fabregas. Despite years of experience in film and television production, Minco maintains an open mind. He believes in self-discovery and always being on the lookout for good opportunity. In Hollywood Boot Camp, Minco will have to learn to put those traits on the side and focus on one task: beating the competition.

Lorenzo “Chitoy” Aviles. An established graphic designer in his native Cebu, 31-year-old Chitoy also brings with him experience in film editing. Skill is learned through time and experience, and it is always a source of pride. Will Chitoy’s pride allow him “unlearn” those skills and start from square one to cope with Hollywood Boot Camp?

Miguel “Michael Merchan” Vasquez. Fiercely passionate over film, Michael draws strength on the realization that we are all actors and directors of our own lives. But passion is a funny thing. While it motivates, it can also consume, and Michael will have to effectively control his passion in order to win Hollywood Boot Camp.

Randolph “Randy” Vitales. Randy has intense enthusiasm for all things film. He also has multi-dimensional talents and wide-ranging experience—and he knows that. Though this Manila native might just be the perfect package for Hollywood Boot Camp, can he keep his exuberant self-confidence from destroying his chances?

Shereen Saiyed. Twenty-three-year-old actor, host and musician, Shereen is known for creating her own atmosphere in any environment. She is a charismatic performer who thrives in the spotlight, but being adept in front of the camera does not mean you know anything about what goes on behind it.

For Hollywood Boot Camp, all eight contestants lived in one house that was run like a boot camp, and competed in various film-training challenges that included writing, directing, cinematography, editing, production design and acting.

Catch their personal back-stories, challenges and group interactions, and fight for the top spot in the eight-series reality TV show Hollywood Boot Camp premiering on QTV-11 on Aug. 13 at 8:30 p.m. The Philippines’ air transport flag carrier, Philippine Airlines, is proudly on board as Hollywood Boot Camp’s major sponsor.

In the entertainment department, Filipinos have always wowed the audiences, critics, and judges abroad. Local movies have earned positive reviews in international film festivals. Singers have dominated the concert stage and singing contests. Actors have also conquered the theater stage.

 

In Hollywood, we have old guards like Lou Diamond Phillips, Phoebe Cates, and Tia Carrera who all have Filipino lineage and were able to make it big in the world’s entertainment capital. In the music scene, we have metal guitar legend Kirk Hammet, among a few others.

 

During the past couple of years, more and more names with Filipino blood are coming out and making waves in Tinseltown. What’s good about the current crop of Filipino-foreigners is that they’re proud of their roots and even vocally express it during interviews.

 

We listed down some of our kababayans in the States who are currently leading the new generation of Filipino talents in the international arena. Celebrities who, during the past two to three years, have created a global following and inspire the new generation.

1. Rob Schneider

Comedian Rob Schneider, Robert Michael Schneider in real life, was born to a Jewish-American father and his mother who’s a kindergarten teacher and ex-school board president. Rob’s maternal grandmother was a Filipina, which probably explains why the former stand-up comic is a staunch advocate against racism. He has even gone to great lengths to publicly denounce Hollywood actors brandishing anti-Semitic views.

 

Polishing his comedic chops, Rob started as a stand-up comedian around the San Francisco area. He was hired by the legendary Saturday Night Live in 1988 as a writer before graduating to full-time cast member, playing various funny to annoying characters. His stint made him the first Asian-American to grace the show.

 

Hollywood movies came next after SNL and Rob did supporting roles in Surf Ninjas, Judge Dredd, The Beverly Hillbillies, Demolition Man, and Down Periscope.

 

His biggest film break was playing the lead role in the comedy film Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo, which, owing to its success spawned a sequel, Deuce Bigalow: European Gigolo.

 

In 2006, Rob made his directorial debut with Big Stan.

 

2. Apl.de.ap

Unmistakably Filipino, Allan Pineda Lindo or Apl.de.ap of Black Eyed Peas, has an inspiring success story that’s truly worth telling.

 

Allan was born in Sapang Bato, Angeles City, Pampanga. His father was a US serviceman at Clark Air Base, who abandoned him and his Filipina mother as soon as he was born. It was a hard life from thereon.

 

Amid life’s uncertainties, music provided Allan a refuge and, eventually, salvation. His early music heroes include Stevie Wonder, Eagles, the Beatles and the home-grown folk music of Asin. He soon discovered hip-hop music, which led to his fascination with break dancing.

 

“I would take the jeepney all the way to Angeles City and that’s how I got introduced to break dancing. I see kids at corners break-dancing and I’m like, ‘I wanna do that’” he vividly recalls in a previous interview.

 

Forming a break-dancing group, Allan went to the States where he became a familiar fixture in Los Angeles’ hip-hop and break-dancing scene. The group he formed soon morphed into the Black Eyed Peas. They adapted a more palatable kind of hip-hop combined with funk music, a big departure from the prevalent gangsta rap of their Los Angeles peers.

 

Despite all the success achieved by the Black Eyed Peas, Allan is lauded for incorporating Filipino themes into the group’s music, as we hear in songs like The Apl Song, where he talks about his roots and even borrows the song’s refrain from Balita, an Asin original.

 

He also wrote a song entitled Bebot, a Filipino street word for “woman”. The video of the said single was shot around LA featuring Filipinos, Filipino-Americans, and other Asian ethnic groups around the bay area.

 

3. Nicole Scherzinger

The Pussycat Dolls’ Nicole Scherzinger couldn’t be more Filipino when she said that her upbringing was conservative Catholic.

 

Born in Hawaii to a Filipino father and Hawaiian/Russian mother, Nicole, who is Nicole Elikolani Prescovia Scherzinger in real life, has always been into performing.

 

She attended Wright State University, where she took up Theater Arts but later on decided to halt her college education to do backup vocals for a rock band.

 

After a couple of collaborations, Nicole earned a spot in the all-girl pop sensation called Eden’s Crush. Despite the great promise showed by the group, as proven by their first two singles, they unfortunately folded up.

 

Nicole continued doing solo appearances. Taking up the name Nicole Kea, she did a cover of Breakfast in Bed (popularized by Baby Washington) and was included in the soundtrack of Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore’s 50 First Dates.

 

Nicole officially joined the then-fledgling The Pussycat Dolls in 2003. Buoyed by the success of their singles—Don’t Cha, Buttons, Wait A Minute, Stickwitu and Beep—the group’s popularity soared. Nicole sang majority of the group’s songs and was the only one among the other members who was credited for songwriting duties.

 

Recognizing her talent and strong appeal, Nicole was tapped by local clothing giant Bench as one of its endorsers. Aside from being busy with The Pussycat Dolls, Nicole is also currently busy recording her first solo album under the guidance of giant producers, will.i.am, Timbaland, Kara Dioguardi, and Bryan Michael Cox.

 

5. Michael Copon

Popularly known as Lucas, the Blue Power Ranger and Felix of One Tree Hill, Michael is starting to create a loud buzz around him because of his good looks and talent.

 

Michael’s father is a Filipino and his mother is of German-American descent. He was born in Chesapeake, Virginia, on November 13, 1982. He took up his secondary education at Deep Creek High School.

 

His credentials include TV shows Scrubs, Reno 911!, That’s So Raven and Even Stevens. Michael even appeared in movies like All You’ve Got, Elevator, and Sideliners.

 

A multi-faceted talent, Michael also dabbles in modeling and music.

 

5. Vanessa Minnillo

Vanessa, according to wikipedia, was born at Clark Air Base, Angeles City, Philippines, to Vincent Minnillo, a U.S. Air Force aircrew member, and Helen Berecero. Her dad has Italian and Irish blood, and her mom is Filipino.

 

Her 2000 Miss Teen USA crown was her passport to showbiz. She hosted MTV’s Total Request Live, and played minor roles in The Bold and the Beautiful, That’s Life, Maybe It’s Me, and Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer.

 

She is currently dating singer Nick Lachey, former husband of Jessica Simpson.

 

Other Pinoys who’ve made waves among American audiences are Paolo Montalban (who starred in Mortal Kombat: Conquest and Cinderella), Dante Basco (actor who appeared on The Debut), Enrique Iglesias, Jocelyn Enriquez, Reggie Lee (who played William Kim on Prison Break, and was included in two of The Pirates of Carribean films, and The Fast and the Furious), to name a few
