Joel, nagustuhan ang pagiging barumbadong bading
In his more or less three decades as an actor, ‘di raw pumasok sa isipan ni Joel Torre to play a transgender character.
Kung sabagay daw, he was never offered to be one. So much so, when director Darryl Yap asked him to be part of the one-of-a-kind action film, Barumbadings, his immediate reaction was why not. He will be a barumbadong bading.
And how was it? “I not only enjoyed it,” ani Joel. “I love it. Very lovable lahat ng kasama ko. And not one of us is gay, ha.”
His co-actors, and he swears not one of them is gay, are Jeric Raval, Mark Anthony Fernandez at Baron Geisler.
And is Joel glad that Barumbadings, now streaming on Vivamax, is enjoyed by all levels of viewers.
And one of them, of coure, is he.
Mayor Toby, ‘di namimilit magpabakuna
As mayor of Navotas, hindi raw mandatory, ayon kay Toby (Tobias) Tiangco, ang vaccination sa residents nila.
Ganunpaman daw, if a resident finally decide na magpa-vaccinate, all he or she needs to is go to their nearest barangay and make a request to be vaccinated.
They have the least number of cases na may kinalaman sa pandemya, Karen Davila, in her program Headstart, said, according daw to research.
But if any of its resident daw needed to be quarantined, may kaukulang facility.
Now in his 50s, Mayor Toby was congressman of the lone district of Navotas, bago siya naging alkalde ng siyudad.
Is he running for re-election ngayong 2022 election? Smile lang ang sagot ni Mayor Toby.
Maris, boses ng pinoy version ng Disney anthem
Maris Racal’s current love of her life, supreme performer and songwriter Rico Blanco was naturally present when Maris recorded for her Filipino version of the Disney anthem, Starting Now.
As all music lovers know, Starting Now was originally recorded by Grammy winning American singer Brandy, star of the 1997 film, Rodgers & Hammerstein’s Cinderella.
Equally busy as an actress si Maris, who is cast and in a lock-in taping for a series, which Antoinette Jadaone direct.
No final title yet.
She will soon start a film, too, na ang mamamahala naman ay si Quark Henares, considered a controversial director dahil sa uri ng projects na kanyang ginawa.
Aniya sa project na gagawin sa kanya ni Maris: “It’s both edgy and complex,” susog pa ni direk Quark.
“Basta panoorin n’yo kapag ipinalabas na.”
Of the controversial age gap between her at ni Rico, it’s 25 years.
