David Foster gustong makita ang lumang bahay nila Charice
Marami nang excited sa concert ng fifteen-time Grammy winner, record producer, composer, singer, songwriter and arranger na si David Foster sa bansa.
Bibihira ang ganitong pagkakataon kung saan kasama niyang magpi-perform for the first time sa ‘Pinas sina Natalie Cole, Charice, Peter Cetera, Ruben Studdard and the Canadian Tenors. Sa Sabado, Oct. 23, ito gaganapin 8:00 p.m. sa Araneta Coliseum.
Say ni Mr. Foster sa mga interview para sa nasabing show entitled Hitman David Foster and Friends, “will be an evening of my music and sometimes it won’t be my music.”
May isang big hit sina Nathalie and David : “will also do some of her music.”
Charice, Cetera, Studdard and the Canadian Tenors are expected to interpret Foster’s songs.
“I was just with Charice recently and we were talking about how exciting the Philippines is when you see it for the first time. I’m looking forward to that,” sabi ng may hawak ng career ni 
Charice.
Given enough time, dagdag niya gusto niyang makita ang bahay ni Charice kung saan lumaki ang bagong international star na lalo pang humahataw ang career dahil sa inclusion nito as Season 2 ng Glee. At hanggang ngayon, walang tigil ang papuring ibinibigay kay Charice samantalang sa iisang episode pa lang siya napapanood.
Anyway, ninong din nga pala ni Charice si Mr. Foster.
Bukod dito, he also wants to see more Filipino talent which he describes as something great.
Maraming-maraming sinulat na kanta si Foster na pinasikat ng iba - he produced and wrote hits like Chicago’s Hard to Say I’m Sorry, Cetera’s The Glory of Love and John Parr’s Man in Motion.
Other production and writing credits followed with hits for Alice Cooper, Al Jarreau, Hall and Oates, Kenny Rogers, Kenny Loggis, Boz Scaggs and Olivia Newton-John.
At siyempre, si Mr. Foster ang nakakita kay Charice sa show ni Ellen De Generes and introduced Charice to Oprah. He calls Charice “my newest baby.”
Tickets to Hitman are available at Ticketnet - 911-5555.

Ang pelikulang Noy pala ang napili ng Film Academy of the Philippines (FAP) para ipa-screen sa kategoryang Foreign Language Film ng Oscars.
Bida sa nasabing pelikula si Coco Martin at siya rin ang producer na kuwento ng coverage sa kampanya ni ngayon ay Pangulong Noynoy Aquino.
Graded A ang Noy ng Cinema Evaluation Board (CEB).
Napanood ko ang movie at infairness, nagandahan ako.
Isang nagpanggap na reporter dito si Coco na na-assign na mag-cover ng kampanya ni Presidente Aquino bago mag-eleksiyon.
At kung maraming nagagandahan, marami ring hindi.
Sabi ng ilang kritiko, hindi consistent ang pelikula dahil paanong pinagkatiwalaan ang isang reporter na bago pa lang ng isang malaking coverage.
Paano rin daw hindi nadiskubre agad na peke ang diplomang ginamit niya para makuha sa nasabing trabaho ng isang istasyon ng TV.
Anyway, para maka-relate panoorin ang pelikula dahil siguradong may DVD copy na ito.
Magagaling din ang mga nakasama ni Coco sa nasabing pelikula - Cherry Pie Picache at Joem Bascon na gumanap na nanay at kapatid niya.
Kahirapan ang kuwento ng pelikula at sana nga ay makapasa ito sa Foreign Language Film ng Oscars.

“It takes one to know one,” sagot ni Ms. Malou Santos, managing director ng Star Cinema sa tanong kung bakit todo ang suporta nila sa loveteam nina Erich Gonzales at Enchong Dee.
Si Ms. Malou ang nagpasikat sa mga most exciting loveteams mula kina Aga Muhlach kasama ang iba’t ibang leading ladies (Sharon Cuneta, Maricel Soriano, Angelica Panganiban, Claudine Barretto at iba pa), Jericho Rosales at Kristine Hermosa, Sam Milby and Toni Gonzaga, John Lloyd Cruz and Sarah Geronimo, John Lloyd and Bea Alonzo, Kim Chui and Gerald Anderson, KC Concepcion and Richard Gutierrez, Angelica and Derek Ramsey.
“I’m a movie fan myself,” say ni Ms. Malou tulad din daw ng kanyang sister na si Ms. Charo Santos-Concio, presidente ng ABS-CBN. And she cheered for both Vilma Santos and Nora Aunor.
Kaya nga she was honored nang gumawa ng pelikula sa Star Cinema ang Star for All Seasons. At hindi lang isa, apat na beses pa - Anak, Bata-Bata Paano Ka Ginawa, Dekada ‘70 at ang bago pa lang na In My Life.
“I know what tickles the heart of a movie fan,” say niya habang sumusumpang movie fan siya forever.
Eh paano naman niya masasabi kung good match ang isang magka-loveteam? “There’s that unexplainable x-factor. A good match probably means that, first, both stars are good actors; the partnership should be able to transcend genres; they are effective in drama, comedy, light romance, etc. Both stars should be driven and be united in the vision of where they will take their partnership.”
At ngayon, ang loveteam nina Erich and Enchong nga ang pinu-push nila. Binigyan agad sila ng solo movie na I Do na showing na September 29.
“I had the gut feeling that Erich and Enchong are a good match when I saw them in Katorse and then in Tanging Yaman and Magkaribal. May chemistry ‘yung dalawa. You just can’t miss it. They look good together, they enjoy what they’re doing. They are both driven to succeed. They act really well and I think they will make it.”
Eh paano naman nila bini-build up ang loveteam? “Television is always almost all the time the springboard. If the audience embraces the loveteam, it is when we take them to the movies,” katuwiran ni Ms. Malou.
Ang I Do ay dinidirek ni Veronica Velasco.
Ka-join din sa movie sina Pokwang, Dennis Padilla, Janus del Prado, Nash Aguas, Ricardo Cepeda, Isay Alvarez, Jun Urbano with Melai Cantiveros.
