Gretchen matagal nang pinapangarap si John Lloyd

Unlike her younger sister Claudine Barretto, busy si Gretchen sa shooting for two movies. Star Cinema’s The Trial, and The Janitor, an indie film earmarked for the Cinemalaya Filmfest and directed by Mike Tuviera.

While The Janitor’s other members of the cast has yet to be announced, in The Trial (tentative lang daw ang title na ito), Gretchen is reunited with former fellow Regal Baby Richard Gomez, John Lloyd Cruz, at Jessy Mendiola.

The Trial is Gretchen’s first movie with Star Cinema, na nagse-celebrate ng 20th anniversary.

‘‘Heard this movie,’’ ani Gretchen, ‘‘will be the film firm’s closing presentation for their celebration.

‘‘How nice,’’ pahayag pa ni Gretchen.

Directed by Chito Roño, Gretchen said she can’t say enough of the project. And to this, the fact that she has long dreamed na makasama sa isang project si John Lloyd.

‘‘I’ve seen most of his movies and I’d say, he is one of the best of his generation,’’ aniya.

Of Jessy, Gretchen said she looks forward na makatrabaho ito. Although ‘di niya raw nasubaybayan nang husto ang last series nitong Maria Mercedes.

Of the current controversy sa pagitan naman nina Gretchen and Claudine, a kibitzer said: ‘‘It’s on trial pa rin.’’

What do you say, Gretch?

Mylene ‘di nag-i-enjoy na pahirapan si Julia

Did we hear it right that Mylene Dizon’s current ‘‘one and only’’ is cager Jason Webb?

He is, too, a son of former Senator and once a popular cager din, Freddie Webb.

Serious daw ang relasyong namamagitan sa dalawa, so much so, wala raw masusurpresa if mauwi ito sa kasalan.

Bulong sa amin ng isang fellow entertainment reporter: ‘‘Annulled na kaya ang kasal ni Jason sa isang TV weather girl, na ‘di rin masyadong visible lately?

In Mylene’s case, bagama’t may dalawa siyang anak sa dating ka-partner na si Paolo Paraiso, she was never married to him. She was last linked to a band soloist.

One of the best actresses sa kasalukuyan, Mylene, though napakabait in real life, is at her best when doing kontrabida roles. Which is the role assigned sa kanya sa Mirabella, the series topbilled by Julia Barretto.

She makes life miserable for the young Mirabella, which, Mylene admits, ‘di niya enjoy, dahil nababaitan siya kay Julia.

‘‘Kaya, sana ‘di ako maging biktima ng mga tagahanga ni Julia. Huwag naman nila akong i-bash sa kanilang social media account,’’ ang natatawang usal ni Mylene.

Sandara nag-stay sa sosyal na hotel ni Willie

Nang pumasyal pala si Sandara Park, bago siya tuluyang umalis ng Pilipinas noong Tuesday, namasyal muna siya sa Tagaytay noong Sunday with fellow 2NE1 member na si CL.

Naunang umalis ang dalawang 2NE1 members na si Bom and Minzy, dahil may individual commitments ang mga ito sa Korea.

While in Tagaytay, nag-stay sila sa plush boutique-hotel, courtesy of its owner, comedian-TV host, Willie Revillame.

Sandara, in her social media account, tweeted Willie ‘‘thank you.’’

Thank you, too, Sandara dahil ‘di ka nagbago. Damang-dama namin ito, kahit ‘di tayo nagkita, while you were in town.
