Dapat daw ay mag-a-attend din si Daboy sa nasabing party ni Boss Vic pero naisip nilang pagkakaguluhan lang si Daboy dahil sa issue.
Iba na ang priorities ngayon ni Kuya Ipe. More on sa pagiging Christian niya dahil malapit na siyang maging pastor.
Nag-circulate noon ang balitang sumama raw ang loob ni Sharon dahil sa nangyari.
Aside from Sharon, hindi rin nagpakita si Regine Velasquez. Hindi na kailangang sabihin na nanggaling sa Viva si Regine. Pero no show siya sa nasabing party.
O baka nga naman kasi hindi active ang Viva sa paggawa ng movie kaya ok lang na hindi sila nagpunta.
Anyway, wala man sina Sharon and Regine sa 60th birthday ng big boss ng Viva, kitang-kita naman na nag-enjoy si Boss Vic sa surprise party na ibinigay sa kanya ng Viva sa Isla Ballroom ng Shangri-La. Wala raw kasi itong idea na nag-prepare pala ng party for his 60th birthday. Nang ayain daw ito ni Vincent, anak ni Boss Vic papunta na sa venue ng party nag-dialogue pa ito ng: "Mas masaya siguro kung may party ako no!" Kaya nang pumasok siya sa Isla ballroom, gulat na gulat daw ito.
Naging punong abala sina Ms. June Torrejon at ang mga anak niyang sina Ms. Veronique and Mr. Vincent del Rosario.
Anyway, wala rin si Sarah Geronimo, pero ang explanation ni Tita June, hindi ito pinayagang umalis sa taping.
Dumating naman si Mr. Orly Ilacad na pinsan ni Boss Vic na una niyang business partner nang itayo nila ang Vicor Records.
Dumating din si Sec. Mai Jimenez at iba pang mga kaibigan ni Boss Vic outside showbiz.
Nagpo-protesta naman si Tita Ethel Ramos dahil sa audio visual presentation, wala si Aga Muhlach na isa sa mga sumikat sa pelikulang Bagets ng Viva.
Wala rin sa nasabing audio visual presentation sila Robin Padilla, Joyce Jimenez at iba pang pinasikat ng Viva.
Ilan naman sa mga nakisayang artists ay ang Hot Babes, Mark Bautista, Desiree del Valle, Carlo Aquino, Nonoy Zuñiga, Andrew E., Blakdyak at marami pang iba.
Sa e-mail ni Atty. Joji Antonio, marami siyang kuwento sa experience nila sa Tokyo.
"I arrived in Tokyo last oct 19, Jeffrey Jeturian on Oct 20. and Jomari on Oct 21 to attend the Tokyo International Film Festival for the movie Minsan Pa, in a non-competition section for Winds of Asia. The festival opened yesterday (Oct. 22) and we were asked to be at the lobby of the hotel by 3:00 pm. We proceeded to another hotel, Hyatt this time we were brought to a waiting room. Then we were asked to go to the basement and ride towards the red carpet area at 4:00 pm.
"Boy, was the red carpet long. (I DON’T HAVE ANY PICTURES NA FOR THIS KC WE ALL WALKED TOGETHER. KAKAHIYA KUNG MAG KODAKAN SA RED CARPET. HE HE.) My feet really hurt from walking because of the heels. It was like the Oscars talaga. There were three stops with the viewing public and media lined at the side of the streets. The 1st stop was with the TIFF logo as background. The 2nd stop was in front of a bleacher of fotogs. The 3rd stop was at the arena where the 3 of us were asked to say a few words.
"From there, we went back to Hyatt for the opening ceremonies at 5:00 pm. Very impressive ang kanilang preparations. After that, the eating ceremonies. He he. With all the sushi we could gobble up. We had to rush though because Minsan Pa was screening at 6:00 pm. We had to proceed to Shibuya where the movie was being shown.
"Jeffrey didn’t bother to eat na. He rushed to the screening para he could sit at the back and observe the audience. As soon as the movie ended, the question and answer followed. I thought it would just be a few questions and they’d let us go na. But we stood in front of the audience for more than an hour. My feet ached again in agony. Our Japanese interpreter told us they must have liked the film, or liked the film’s reps for them to stay on and ask a number of things.
"To think this was a paying audience, except for those who were also participants.
"We took the opportunity of inviting everyone in the audience to visit the Philippines, specially Cebu.
"They said the place looked magnificent on the big screen.
"It was a great feeling to represent the country and talk on its behalf. I just hope the forthcoming digital film which Jeffrey and I will partner in, KUBRADOR (the bet collector), will also get to participate in festivals abroad. It will break its shoot on Nov 1."
Ngayong gabi sa Showbiz Stripped hosted by Ricky Lo, kakausapin ni Ricky sina Ali Sotto, Angel Locsin, Susan Roces, Rey Langit at Anthony Cuevas (bf ni Halina) para alamin ang kanilang nararamdaman pagkatapos ng pagpanaw ng kanilang mga mahal sa buhay.
