Higit pa sa improvement ng kanyang pag-i-Ingles ang obserbasyong nakuha ko kay Diether Ocampo as he completed Only You’s cast blowout para sa press at the Pizza Hut branch along E. Rodriguez nitong Huwebes.
Nauna na kasing magpa-thanksgiving presscon si Angel Locsin, followed by Sam Milby, and it would have been un-delicious of Diether not to throw a treat considering na pasok sa Pinoy na panlasa ang matatapos na nilang Korean-original teleserye.
Of the many answers to the questions na ibinato kay Diether, ang pinakanagustuhan ko ay ang sagot niya sa noo’y napabalitang paglipat niya sa GMA 7.
Tanong: Months ago, napabalitang lilipat si Diether sa kabilang istasyon, in all honesty, did the idea of transferring ever cross his mind? And if it did, why was it not realized?
Bagama’t may bahagyang paliguy-ligoy si Diether, inamin niya that yes, sumagi sa kanyang isip na lumipat sa Siete. Iyon ang time na expired na ang kanyang kontrata sa Dos, at the same time, the idea of working with other actors excited him. Totoong nakipag-meeting daw si Diether sa mga taga-Siete, kinatok niya ang pintuan nito, pinagbuksan naman daw siya at nasilip niya kung ano ang nasa loob nito.
Until dumating ang Only You, sagot marahil sa kanyang paghahanap ng bago namang karanasan.
All throughout the presscon, I believed Diether’s honest confession was the “meat” on the pizza. Kung iba-ibang aktor lang siguro was to be confronted with the same question, the press would have been made to eat “palabok” kung saan ang haba-haba ng paliwanagan, pero wala namang lasang tinutumbok.

Mukhang Richard Gomez has a lot of explaining to do his wife Lucy Torres, aber, bakit titig na titig ang aktor sa mga naka-bra’t panty na mga contestants in tonight’s All Star K! The One-Million Peso Videoke Challenge?
May temang kunwaring mga FHM cover girls, Carlene Aguilar, Veronica Scott (of Kitty Girls), Jocelyn Oxlade (also of Kitty Girls), Gwen Garci, Jennifer Lee, Sarah Polverini (former GMA 7 young star), and Madel Palma of EB Babes try to rediscover that there lies beneath their sexiness: Ang pag-awit.
The program opens with all seven hitads in their undies dancing in bed kung saan na-magnet ang mga mata ni Goma as the hired killer. Dahil on leave pa rin si Jaya, guest co-host ni Allan K si BB Gandanghari, herself (daw, o!) ang aspiring cover girl.

Mistulang si Kuya Ipe (Phillip Salvador) ang aligaga sa birthday party ni Cristy Fermin sa Baluarte noong mismong kaarawan nito, July 23.
How nice of Kuya Ipe (even handsome in his kalbo look), he never misses out of important events lalo’t mga tunay niyang katropa sa showbiz.
