How nice to hear that Cherry Pie Picache and Baron Geisler have finally kissed and made up.
The incident reportedly happened at a small showbiz gathering where both were in attendance. Atubili raw at first si Baron na lapitan si Cherry Pie at baka nga naman siya isnabin nito.
In the end, naglakas-loob siyang lapitan at batiin ang aktres, who, in turn, had welcome his gesture.
Nearly two years ago, if you recall, Cherry Pie, along with her talent manager Ed Instrella, ay nagÂreklamo sa PAMI (Professional Artists ManaÂgers, Inc.), an exclusive organization of talent maÂnagers headed by June Rufino, regarding what they said was pang-aabuso physically na ginawa ni Baron sa aktres while they were taping for a scene in a series they were then doing together, Noah, which Jodi Sta. Maria, Jolo Revilla, and child actor Zaijian Jaranilla also topbilled.
Baron admitted his mistake. He was drunk daw at that time that’s why.
Baron’s talent manager, Arnold Vegafria, who is a PAMI member, too, apologized to Ed and Cherry Pie on Baron’s behalf.
As a result, Arnold, to whom Baron later confessed he was getting to be an alcoholic decided to have him rehabilitated for his addiction.
The rest is history, as Baron said, cured na siya of the alcoholism.
A most in demand actor, especially for character roles, Baron is in the cast of Sapi, a horror film directed by Brillante Mendoza.
Sapi, which also stars Dennis Trillo and Meryll Soriano, is invited to have its global premiere at this year’s Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF). The film joins 13 other international films in the Vanguard section ng nabanggit na annual film showcase na nakatakdang maganap Sept. 5 to 15.
Ekstra humakot ng apat na Cinemalaya awards
Speaking of indie films, which Direk Brillante doesn’t deny Sapi is, Ekstra, the first indie film topbilled by Star For All Seasons and Batangas City incumbent Gov. Vilma Santos, won her naman a best actress trophy.
Likewise, napanalunan din ng Ekstra ang awards for best screenplay, Jury Price, best supporting actress, and Audience’s Choice sa katatapos na Cinemalaya Independent Film Festival Awards Night.
Star Cinema will release Ekstra, produced by Quantum Films, starting Aug. 14 in theaters nationwide.
Directing Ekstra is Jeffrey Jeturian, who is also at the helm of the much admired and top-rating morning program on ABS-CBN, Be Careful With My Heart.
Bf ni Bianca hindi kilala
Sabi nga ni Kim Chiu, who stars together with Xian Lim in the current blockbuster movie ng Star Cinema na Bakit Hindi Ka Crush ng Crush Mo? kung sa tunay na buhay daw ay hindi siya crush ng crush niya, well, maghahanap na lang siya ng iba.
Which apparently what former beauty queen Bianca Manalo did. Although, it’s obvious that it took din a while bago siya nakatagpo ng kapalit ni John Prats sa puso niya.
The guy reportedly is Ryn Ordoñez. Walang masyadong nakakaalam kung saan involved si Ryn.
Bagama’t she and John daw ay not necessarily friends after their breakup, masaya raw si Bianca dahil may bago na rin itong mahal.
No need to tell you that John’s current girl is Kapuso talent Isabel Oli, na balak daw pakasalan ng aktor when he turns 30 next year.
While busy si John with his gag programs Banana Nite and Banana Split Extra Scoop, katatapos din lang ni Bianca for her new movie Kung Fu Divas, starring AiAi delas Alas and Marian RiÂvera.
