Jolina at asawa, kabi-kabila ang raket para sa anak

As if ‘di pa enough for Jolina Magdangal na nakabalik-TV siya via sa seryeng Flordeliza, where she was reunited with her dating ka-love team na si Marvin Agustin and which also has a follow-up series kaagad, Written In Our Stars, where she has for co-stars naman mga ‘‘bigating’’ Kapamilya, like Piolo Pascual, Toni Gonzaga, at Sam Milby, heto at balik-recording na rin siya.

Yes, Star Music will soon release Jolina’s first self-titled album, which contains a number of songs in English and Tagalog.

Napansin naming Jolina’s voice has not changed nang pinagbigyan niya ang hiling ni Boy Abunda, when she guested in his show, Tonight With Boy Abunda (TWBA), to sing a few lines from one of her songs in the album.

Another bagong investment ni Jolina at ng kanyang asawang si Mark Escueta is the eatery in Magallanes Drive, which they call Memory Lane.

Kasama nilang nagpapalakad ng Memory Lane ang mga magulang ni Jolina. The eatery, according to her ay na nagse-serve ng mga pagkain na maitutu­ring na lutong bahay.

Although aktibo pa rin sa kanyang banda si Mark, he is, too, still mula kay Jolina, employed as an insurance financial manager of an insurance firm.

Kailangan daw nilang paghandaan ang kinabukasan ng kanilang anak na si Pele Iñigo and of course, ng magiging mga kapatid nito.

Kaya, kailangan nilang magsipag na mag-asawa.

Alex at Ping Medina, namana ang pagiging kontrabida ng ama

We are happy for the Medina brothers, Ping and Alex, who, like their Dad, Pen Medina, are both emerging as effective bida-kontrabida, in both films and on TV.

Right now, the trio are focused sa kani-kanilang TV assignments. Pen, the Dad, is in Pasion de Amor, na ang airing ay na-extend hanggang January next year.

Pasion co-stars Pen with Jake Cuenca, Joseph Marco, and Ejay Falcon. Featured are Ellen Adarna, Coleen Garcia, and Arci Muñoz. In special roles naman sina Pilar Pilapil, Wendel Ramos, at Teresa Loyzaga.

Eric Quizon directs Pasion.

Ping is in the cast of the Coco Martin series, Ang Probinsiyano.

At si Alex, whose original dream, he said, was to be a journalist, like his Mom, who is with the staff of a popular daily newspaper, plays lover to Angelica Panganiban (as Claudia Buenavista) in Pangako Sa ’Yo.

He was, in fact, enrolled in a mass communication course sa San Beda College, when he stopped to try his luck in showbiz.

And so far, so good, ani Alex.

Bea kabisado na ang buhay may-asawa

Bea Alonzo con­siders 2015 a good year for her. Bagama’t dala­wang movie lang ang gi­nawa niya, ka­­bilang na ang upcoming reunion movie niya with John Lloyd Cruz, A Second Chance, which will hit theaters nationwide on November 25.

Bea starred, of course, with Richard Gomez and Dawn Zulueta in the box-office hit movie, The Love Affair, which was shown mid this year.

Wala rin daw siyang masasabi sa kanilang relas­yon ni Zanjoe Marudo, since in him daw, she seems to have found a perfect match.

At 28, however, wala pa raw muna siyang balak mag-asawa. Bagama’t, from time to time, napag-uusapan na rin naman nila ni Zanjoe ang tugkol sa pagpapakasal.

Well, while doing A Second Chance, marami raw siyang natutunan sa buhay mag-asawa, na natitiyak niyang magiging gabay niya, once lumagay na siya sa tahimik.

Supposedly, in their eight year na sila bilang mag-asawa ni John Lloyd sa sequel na ito ng One More Chance. Kaya, naranasan nila ang ups and downs as a couple.

“Marami ang tiyak kong makaka-identify sa roles na ginagampanan namin dito ni John Lloyd.

“Sana, magustuhan ng manonood ang movie at learn from it as well,” pahayag pa ni Bea.
