Lolit solis mag-aapela sa GMA 7
Pre-Easter Eggs painted with colors of box-office success ang inani ng pelikulang T2 ng Star Cinema as it opened yesterday. Rated B by the Cinema Evaluation card, patunay lang na ang genre na ito is what clicks with the moviegoers.
It is also a testimonial to Maricel Soriano’s multiple talents as an actress, samantalang isa nang given ang pagiging mahusay ng paborito kong direktor, si Chito Roño.

Nais baguhin ni Lolit Solis ang Black Saturday programang 2010. For how many years kasi, it has been a ‘no-pay’ day for Startalk and its staff, nakapanghihinayang daw kasi yung isang Sabadong walang trabaho.
‘Nay Lolit’s idea came upon the heels of its rival show na nagkaroon ng palabas kahapon, idagdag pa rin daw ang krisis, hence the need to air a Black Saturday episode that talks about the celebrities’ redemption minus the controversial issues they are involved in.
“Hay naku, pakikiusapan ko talaga ang GMA management na sa next year, magkaroon ng episode ang Startalk sa Sabado de Gloria,” sey ni ’Nay Lolit na nakapansin ding may pagbabago na rin sa programa on the boob tube.
Time was when kasi na puro Lenten shows ang napapanood sa TV, this is no longer so in modern-day programming. Sinuportahan pa ito ni ’Nay Lolit nang pagpapalabas ng mga horror movies during Lent, particularly on Black Saturday kung kailan hindi pa naman nare-resurrect ang Panginoong Hesus.
Come to think of it, Startalk—being a tsismis show—can be holy for once.

Despite his father’s affiliation with ABS-CBN, Startalk baby na itinuturing ng Startalk si Vandolph Quizon. Never kasi namang napahiya ang naturang show sa pag-iimbita sa bunso ng Comedy King, from his announcement of his wedding to Jenny Salimao (as exclusively covered) to his wife’s good news about her pregnancy.
But the bigger news na kabuntot ng kay Vandolph ay ang pagpapaunlak ng kanyang inang si Alma Moreno to a phone patch interview. For some reason, napakailap ni Alma na magbalita ng tungkol sa kanyang pagpakasal in Muslim rites to Marawi City Mayor Fahad Salic, moreso her conversion to the faith.
Pinanghahawakan ng Startalk ang verbal promise ni Alma na magpapainterbyu sa Startalk once ready. It may not be one of exclusive TV, but with ’Nay Lolit in the ‘grilling panel’ na nakasama ni Alma noong sila pa ni Rudy Fernandez, is enough spectacle on TV to watch out for.
