Many would assumed that Marvin Agustin is TV5 most favored contract talent.
It indeed looks like he is. After all, all his shows are described by the Network as pang-primetime. At in fairness, promising lahat sa umpisa.
Take Artista Academy and Karinderya Wars na parehong si Marvin ang host. At the start, waring magki-click. Ewan kung saan nagkamali at hindi gaanong kinagat ng publiko.
Marami tuloy aspiring talents from the Artista Academy ang in need of assignments, just like the two previous talents ng Search for a Star show ng Channel 5 din, Eula Caballero at Ritz Azul.
Sa teleserye, the title Obsession did look good. And how the Network was ‘‘selling’’ it was very favorable.
Again, Obsession had Marvin in the lead role. For his leading lady, para mabigyan obviously ang series ng ‘‘bagong’’ panlasa, Bianca King, from GMA 7, was ‘‘loaned.’’
Featured si Martin Escudero. Samantalang si Neri Naig ay binigyan ng pagkakataong mag-comeback.
No need to tell you na Obsession, which somehow, started “desirable’’ didn’t turn out to be. Yes, considering that it was Marvin’s supposed comeback series after Iglot, which he starred sa GMA 7 in 2011.
In fairness kay Marvin, as a real-life businessman, it’s where he excels truly. All his eateries and restaurants, ay lahat kumikita. Balitang managing partner si Marvin sa 48 restaurants sa buong bansa.
As a Dad, too, wala, so far, na reklamo tungkol sa kanya ang ina, ng kanyang kambal (si Tetet Dy) na sina Santiago at Sebastian, nine years old.
Diana zubiri naka-graduate na rin
Three genuine college graduates this year among our celebrities are Dingdong Dantes, who finished with a degree in Bachelor of Science in Business Administration, Major in Marketing Management from the West Negros University in Bacolod City; Diana Zubiri, now a holder of a degree in Theater Arts from Miriam College, and Alma Concepcion, na ang natapos naman ay interior designing from the Southville International School in Parañaque City.
Earlier, nagtapos na ang kursong International Business si Alma from the same school.
Among the three of them, si Dingdong ang nanatiling active sa kanyang showbiz career, habang nag-aaral. With Star Cinema, he did two films - She’s the One and One More Try.
Currently, he’s taping for the series, Ang Dalawang Mrs. Real, which co-stars him with Maricel Soriano for the first time. Also starring is Lovi Poe.
Though busy with her studies, nakagawa last year ng dalawang teleserye si Diana, Juan dela Cruz, top billed by Coco Martin at Erich Gonzales, at Bukas Na Lang Kita Mamahalin, na ang mga pangunahing artista ay sina Gerald Anderson, Cristine Reyes, at Dawn Zulueta.
Alma appeared in Pintado with Denise Laurel with ABS-CBN.
Balak daw munang kumuha ni Alma ng exams for interior design, bago pumalaot muli sa showbiz. This time, dahil malaki na raw ang anak na si Cobie, who studies sa Ateneo de Manila University, type niyang full-time na ang pagtatrabaho. Former Regal Baby itong si Alma.
