Whos the sexiest!?

StarStruck versus Pinoy Big Brother (PBB) for the cover of men’s magazines this August.

 

Ang FHM August issue, na si Cristine Reyes ang cover, ay out in the market na. Early promotion ito para sa kanyang launching movie na Green Paradise. Nag-umpisa na shooting ng pelikula.

 

Nang makausap ng PEP (Philippine Entertainment Portal) noon si Cristine tungkolsa pag-iyak daw niya no’ng ibinalita sa kanya ng handler niya sa GMA Artist Center na kinukuha siya na cover girl for FHM—nilinaw niya na hindi naman daw iyak na ayaw niya ang nangyari.

 

“Kagigising ko lang po noon, as in kagigising ko lang. Nagising po ako sa tawag ng handler ko, sinasabi sa akin kung gusto ko raw mag-cover sa FHM. Naluha po ako kasi bukod sa hindi pa adjusted ang mata ko, ang unang call na matatanggap ko pagkagising ay offer na magpa-sexy sa isang magazine,” paliwanag ni Cristine during her surprise appearance noon sa presscon na ibinigay ng Viva Artist Agency (VAA) for its talents. Nandoon kasi ang VAA talent na si Andrew Schimmer, ang partner ni Cristine sa Green Paradise.

 

Kasabay ng Cristine cover ng FHM ay dalawang PBB 2 housemates na sina Dionne Monsanto at Wendy Valdez for Uno and Maxim, respectively.

 

Marami ang nagulat nang napapayag si Dionne na mag-cover for Uno dahil kilala siyang conservative. Kuwento niya sa amin last week sa Dencio’s kung saan ipinapakilala pakonti-konti ang mga PBB 2 housemates, dinulog niya pa raw ito sa mga madre ng kanyang school sa Cebu.

 

“Galing po kasi ako sa Catholic schools sa Cebu, both high school and college. Baka mabigla sila kapag nakita nila ako na cover ng Uno,” sabi niya.

 

“In-explain ko po sa kanila na hindi naman po ganung ka-sexy ang pictorial ko, may class pa nga. Kilala naman po ang Uno magazine na nagpi-feature ng mga actresses not known for being sexy.”

 

Dagdag ni Dionne, wala rin siyang balak magpa-sexy afterwards, pictorial lang naman daw ito.

 

Special naman ang ginawa ng Maxim for its August issue dahil first time nilang gagawing may three variations ang cover, na si Wendy ang nasa lahat.

 

Hindi pa raw ito nagawa ng Maxim Philippines, kay Wendy pa lang. In time for the promotion naman ito ng unang soap ni Wendy na Margarita, co-starring her boyfriend Bruce Quebral and Diether Ocampo.

Bed scene ni Wendy (PBB season 2 final four)

Walang panghihinayang si Bruce Quebral na hindi siya natuloy sa unang pelikula na dapat sana ay gagawin niya sa Regal Entertainment, ang Desperadas. Ang kapalit kasi nito ay ang bagong teleserye nila ng kasintahang si Wendy Valdez sa ABS-CBN, ang Margarita, na magsisimulang mapanood sa Lunes, July 30.

“Sobrang excited ako at talagang kinakabahan. Kasi, ‘yun nga, marami ring expectations sa amin ang tao. Sa amin na sobrang baguhan, talagang sobra kaming naka-focus kung ano ‘yung kailangan naming gawin para sa ikabubuti ng career namin,” sabi ni Bruce sa panayam ng PEP (Philippine Entertainment Portal).

Bagama’t sa Lunes na ipalalabas ang Margarita ay noong nakaraang Martes, July 24, lang sila nagsimulang mag-taping. Ikinuwento ni Bruce na isa sa mga kinunang eksena ay ang bed scene nila ni Wendy.

“Medyo kinabahan din. Kasi si Direk Erick [Salud], siya ‘yung nagturo sa amin kung ano ang dapat gawin. Nagtawanan din kami ni Wendy kasi alam namin na sa trabaho naman ‘yon. Hindi namin na-feel kasi sa trabaho kami nakatutok,” aniya.

Dahil unang sabak ni Bruce sa pag-arte ang Margarita, hindi ba siya nahirapan?

“Mga nakaka-take three or four [takes] ako,” pag-amin niya. “Wow! Kasi hindi ko naman pinabayaan ‘yung mga workshops ko, kasi alam ko talaga na kailangan. Talagang tinututukan ko ‘yon.”

Ngayong madalas na silang magkakasama ni Wendy, sa tingin kaya ni Bruce ay mas magiging maganda ang takbo ng relasyon nila?

“Sa tingin ko, mas magiging stronger. Kasi like nung nasa bahay [Pinoy Big Brother house], nagsusuportahan kami sa mga ginagawa namin. So, talagang we bring out the best in each other,” sabi ng actor.

May major fight na ba sila?

“Wala,” sagot niya. “Pag may misunderstanding, usap-usap lang. Parang sa loob ng bahay, usap-usap lang din.”

Samantala, ngayong may projects na si Bruce sa ABS-CBN, nabayaran na ba niya ang pagkakautang niya sa dating girlfriend niya?

“Hindi pa,” sagot niya. “Pero paunti-unti. Nag-start na akong magbigay sa kanya ng pera kahit konti. Alam naman niya ‘yung mga needs ng family ko kaya hindi rin niya ako pinu-push.” - Philippine Entertainment Portal

The throng of I-hate-Wendy Big Brother fans must have been mortified last Saturday night as their wish had been granted. And that was for Wendy Valdez not to be the Big Winner at the elaborate Big Night at the Big Dome.

But Wendy still placed third, having outvoted odds on favorite Gee-Ann Abrahan who placed fourth. Just by being in the Big 4, Wendy’s career (on television and in the movies) is now assured with Dream Big Productions behind her.

We heard she’s being groomed to be the next Zeny Zabala, Carol Varga, Bella Flores all rolled into one, and her ex-housemate boyfriend Bruce Quebral as the new Van de Leon, Paquito Diaz, Boy Garcia also all rolled into one.

Beatriz Saw, a Chinese Filipino, from Baao, Camarines Sur, was declared the Big Winner, after garnering 30.29 percent of the total text/online votes cast for the four remaining housemates. She edged out another favorite, Mickey Perz, the Filipino Swiss hip-hop dancer, to win the million peso cash prize and others, including a new house and car.

Bea’s victory, in a way, extricates the Big Brother production staff headed by Laurenti Dyogi from the malicious insinuations of those who openly expressed their loathing of Wendy Valdez that there had been a grand design to make the model, former beauty pageant contestant and recent girlfriend of housemate Bruce Quebral as the new season’s Big Winner.

As Dyogi pointed out during a press conference days before the Big Night, “ABS-CBN will not allow any hanky panky in the show. There has never been an attempt to rig the results, and neither to manipulate the show to give a particular housemate an advantage over the others.”

I saw Dyogi smiling on the TV screen immediately after Bea was called on to the stage to the cheers of many who felt relieved Wendy wasn’t the one walking down the stage and waiving to the crowd.

The Bicolanos, I am told, are jubilant in Bea’s victory. Finally, someone, not from Cebu or Metro Manila, who hogged the limelight in the more than a hundred days inside the Pinoy Big Brother House. While Bea might not have been as controversial as Wendy, or as popular as Gee-Ann, she charmed everyone with her simplicity and honesty. That was the clincher that had more than a million Filipinos across the archipelago voting for her.

Bea said she wouldnt want to be compared to Kim Chui, teen edition PBB winner. Well, that cant stop other people from doing so since they are both chinese and started their career by being the big winner. The question is, will they remain the same friends long enough? or are they going to face controversies and fights like other stars? i hope not. lets wait and see..

PBB - Wendy Labas!!! Boo!!! Cheers and Jeers in the colliseum,

“Kahit po naiinis kayo sa akin, pag sinasabi ninyo ‘yong pangalan ko, at least pinapansin ninyo ako. Thank you!” said Wendy Valdez to the crowd booing during the Big Night of the Pinoy Big Brother (PBB) last Saturday, June 30, at the Araneta Coliseum.

 

Though the Big Dome was filled with jeers whenever her name was mentioned, the former beauty queen still finished as Pinoy Big Brother’s Third Big Placer, receiving over 1,200,000 votes.

 

Again, Wendy was booed by the audience during her number with fellow housemate Bruce Quebral on ASAP yesterday, July 1.

 

How is she taking all the love and hate that she is getting from the public?

 

“‘Yong love po, sobra po [appreciated] kasi mula pagkabata, feeling ko hindi ako masyadong minamahal. Pero ‘yong love po, sobrang tine-treasure ko po. ‘Yong hate po, ina-accept ko po. Nagkamali po ako and I admit it,” said Wendy in her live interview on The Buzz.

 

She stressed: “Ang masakit lang po, ‘yon pong lumabas ‘yong nanay ko, binu-boo pa rin ng mga tao. Sana po kung may pagkakamali po ako sa inyo, ako na lang po sana. Huwag na lang po sana idamay ‘yong pamilya ko kasi wala naman po silang kasalanan. Hindi po kasalanan ng nanay ko na ako naging anak niya. Hindi niya ako pinili. At ‘yong mga kapatid ko, hindi nila kasalanan na kapatid nila ako.

 

“So parang awa na lang po, respeto na lang po bilang tao. Kung gusto ninyo po ako ngaragin, ako na lang po. Huwag na po ang pamilya ko. Wala silang kinalaman dito. Hindi sila ang pumasok sa Big Brother. ‘Yon lang po.”

 

She also pleaded to the public to spare Bruce from the hoots against her.

 

“Hindi ko po siya pinilit na maging [focused lang sa akin], pero nagpapasalamat ako na ganoon siya sa akin—may taong nagmamahal sa akin na ganoon… Nagmamakaawa po ako na please, huwag nyo pong idamay [si Bruce] kung galit po kayo sa akin. Huwag n’yo pong idamay si Bruce kung mahal niya po ako. Siguro po may something sa akin na kamahal-mahal na nakita niya at sana makita niyo rin,” she appealed.

 

Wendy got the public’s attention when she had a rift with the other female housemates—winner Bea Saw and fourth placer Gee Ann. She said she felt slighted because the two openly nominated her. She then accused the two of being “fake” and “plastic.” She also began taunting the two and making snide remarks.

 

Bea chose to ignore Wendy. Gee-Ann cried buckets and was given sedatives.

 

“Hindi po ako masamang tao. Mayroon po akong mga pangit na ugali, aminado po ako doon. Lahat naman po ng tao nagagalit pag nasasaktan. Lahat po ng tao may masamang ugali. Ang pagkakamali ko lang po siguro, hindi ko po siya nakayang itago sa lahat ng maraming camera dahil pakiramdam ko, nasa loob lang ako ng bahay,” explained Wendy.

 

She added, “Kung may strategy sana ako, nagbait-baitan na lang ako para hindi ako binu-boo. ‘Yong nga po ‘yong gusto kong sabihin. Alam ko po, sinasabi ko po sa inyo na hindi po ako perpekto. Alam ko po nagkamali ako. Alam ko po ‘yong ginawa ko at hindi ko dinedepensa ‘yong sarili ko. Pero hindi po ako masamang tao. ‘Yon lang po ‘yong sasabihin ko. Nagkamali ako, pero hindi po ako masamang tao. ‘Yon lang po, sana maintindihan ninyo.

 

“Naiintindihan ko po kung ganyan po ang [reception] sa akin ng mga tao, may mga tao na hindi nakaintindi sa akin. Naiintindihan ko po. The moment na pumasok ako sa Big Brother, alam ko po na kakalkalin ang buhay ko. Alam kong ise-share ko ang buhay ko, kung ano man ang ugali ko noon hindi ko binago.”

 

Wendy also clarified that she wasn’t striving to win the plum.

 

“The fact na nginarag ko po ang sarili ko sa harap ng tao, alam ko po na hindi ako mananalo… It’s not ‘I want to be a winner.’ It’s ‘I believe I can be a winner,’” she asserted.

Sa history ng kahit na anong reality show sa Pilipinas ay first time lang nangyari na “napagtulungan” ng madla ang isang contestant. At nangyari ito sa PBB Big Four housemate na si Wendy Valdez. Isang linggo bago siya lumabas sa Big Brother house ay katakut-takot na pambabatikos na ang inabot ni Wendy from televiewers. Maraming email ang naglabasan na puro kasiraan sa kanyang pagkatao at pagkababae ang nilalaman. At ang lahat ng ito ay consequence lamang ng pinakitang ‘pagmamaldita’ ni Wendy sa loob ng bahay.

 

Ngayon ngang nakabalik na siya sa outside world, mas lalong naramdaman ng ex-housemate ang impact ng sinasabi niyang pagpapakatotoo sa loob ng bahay. Hindi nga raw niya nagawang magpakatao kaya ganun na lamang ang galit ng madla sa kanya. Paglabas ng bahay, naoverwhelmed si Wendy sa boo at paninigaw sa kanya sa Big Dome kaya naman sinabi niyang sana ay pagsalitain muna siya.

Inako ni Wendy ang mga pagkakamali niya sa loob ng bahay. Hihintayin na lang daw niya na mapatawad siya ng tao sa mga ginawa niya at nakahanda siyang maghintay para lang matanggap siya bilang si Wendy. Nakiusap na lang siya na sana ay huwag idamay ang pamilya niya sa galit sa kanya ng tao. Kaya niya raw tanggapin lahat ng mga pambabatikos sa kanya pero hindi niya kayang pati nanay at mga kapatid niya ay idamay sa gulo. Pati si Bruce Quebral, ang housemate na nakarelasyon niya, ay pinananawagan din ni Wendy. Sana raw ay hindi na rin ito madamay sa galit ng maraming tao sa kanya.

Tinanghal na 3rd placer si Wendy sa Big Four kung saan nakakuha rin siya ng may 1.2 million votes. Pang-apat si Gee-an Abrahan, pang-2nd placer naman si Mickey Perz at Big Winner naman si Beatrice Saw ng Bicol. Ang pagpasok ni Wendy sa Big Four ay umani ng violent reactions from televiewers dahil na rin sa obvious hatred ng tao sa modelong housemate. Binalot ng malaking kontrobersiya ang season 2 ng PBB na may kinalaman lahat kay Wendy na diumano’y paborito ito ng management kaya nagawang ‘pabalikin’ sa PBB house. Sinagot na ito ng pamunuan ng PBB sa pangunguna ni Direk Lauren Dyogi at pinabulaanan nila ang kumalat na balita.

Hindi talaga karapatrapat si wendy kaya tama lang na si Bea ang manalo. its just this short and simple.

PBB names ‘Big Four’ for final

Three female housemates and a male resident made it to the “Big Four” during the 12th and Final Eviction Night of “Pinoy Big Brother” Season 2.

They are Gianina Maria “Gee-Ann” Abrahan, Beatriz “Bea” Saw, Wendy Valdez and Michael “Mickey” Perz.

The Big Four are the top contenders for the Big Night on June 30 at the Araneta Coliseum in Cubao, Quezon City.

The final eviction night also saw Elmo “Bodie” Cruz leaving the house as the last housemate to be evicted from PBB.

Bodie, the son of veteran actor Tirso Cruz III, got only 12.46 percent of votes out of the 462,965 total.

PBB management had invited a third party, auditing firm SGV and Co., to validate the votes from June 17 up to the Big Night.

The names of the three girls were the first to be announced by PBB host Toni Gonzaga. Mickey’s name was the last to be called.

While Bodie was on stage with his parents after his eviction, some PBB fans at the Eviction Hall were unable to keep their emotions from showing because the showbiz child and not Wendy got evicted.
 
“Wendy labas! Wendy labas! (Get out Wendy!)” the crowd chanted.

There were fans who disapproved of Wendy’s continued stay because of her attitude against Bea and Gee-Ann.

Speculations and a malicious e-mail have been circulating, accusing PBB management of manipulating the votes in favor of Wendy.

PBB management denied rigging the votes and the allegation that the beauty queen from Navotas is TV director Laurenti Dyogi’s pet. Dyogi is the head of the PBB’s business unit.

Side comments:
Wendy doesnt really deserve to be included in the big 4! she has an attitude that doesnt care about how others feel. its true, she is just being herself but, that doesnt give her the right to be soooo rude to other housemates. last night, everyone was cheering, “wendy labas” (Go out wendy!) that never happend before and that means, plenty of people hate wendy. imagine, wendy’s mother was also part of the audience and other fans that are angry at wendy are shouting “wendy labas”
