Showcasing Hard Work and Brilliance: The Brilliant Awards 2023

Just got off the Brilliant Awards 2023, The Brightest of All Time. Brilliant Skin Inc. holds events like these annually to honor the regional leaders, franchisees, distributors of their cosmetic products in the country. Clad in their most gorgeous white and pink shimmering outfits, they were all welcomed at the Newport Performing Arts Theatre in Pasay City by Brilliant Skin CEO Glenda Dela Cruz.

Ms. Glenda says "This night is all for you, I know there are a lot of people who came from the Cordilleras, Region 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, Bangsamoro and NCR. You are the ones who are really brilliant."

She adds "We have been able to weather through the challenges of 2023. We had fears, uncertainty, and I thought everything would be gone. I learned to be grateful, and to tell you honestly, I'm a better version now. My life is an open book now, I let go of people that I loved and accepted it even though it was difficult. We made waves when we started our Pinakamakinang events in Araneta, and now we are in Malaysia with our TikTok shop, and with our online platform in countries like Dubai (UAE), Malaysia, and soon in Singapore. We did this because of you. We continue to work hard, and I hope this goes the same with all of you. This proves that no matter what they say, you stand behind me all the way. I won't be wasting your trust. I thank God for saving me so many times, and he has done so much for me."

 

After personally thanking the "Brilliants", a term she coined for those who support her, she began showing her gratitude with the tons of celebrity performers she prepared for them. With the likes of Mariel Padilla and Luis Manzano as their hosts, model and actor Daniel Matsunaga, song and dance numbers from international stars 4th Impact and talk of the town Andrea Brillantes, everyone was just so glad to be in the midst of their endorsers who went there to just perform for them. Add to that singers JK Labajo, Kyle Echarri, Jason Dy, good looking actor Paulo Avelino, our golden boy Alden Richards, rock phenom Kean Cipriano and KZ Tandingan brought the house down as each of the winners were announced on stage. It was really nice to see how the crowd reacted when people from their own region was called, and how proud they really are.

Ms. Glenda was so thankful that despite her recent health challenges, they were all able to gather in one place so she could personally spend time with them, to take photos, talk and thank them for the hard work they put in for Brilliant Skin.

Here's some scenes we caught on video that evening!

4th Impeachment Complaint Against President Arroyo

President GMA showing the signs of aging lolz. Headaches coming on this impeachment again!

The 4th and probably the final impeachment complaint against President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo has been filed in the lower house this morning by Jose de Venecia III, Atty. Harry Roque and Iloilo Vice Governor Rolex Suplico. Receiving the complaint was Deputy General Ricardo Roque and endorsed by well known activists/Party list representatives Satur Ocampo, Teddy Casino and Lisa Masa.

They went there about 7am in the morning to file this so they would be the first one to do so. Remember the last time when Atty. Lozano filed for it and it was recognized? heheh... I guess they don't want to be in the same boat as last year.. Just thinking about wasted time and money again for this, they did not even know this would take years... and the election would be next year... someone is definitely not thinking huh?!

Well it's their right, so nobody can complain about that... I mean you know how miserable politics is in the Philippines... yeah you know!

Have we became a country of partisan politics? If they don't win the election and get what they want, they just complain? Is that really healthy or is it just a waste of time? In my books, its just a waste... a real waste of people's taxes... why don't they just work like most of us do... and pay their taxes right... nothing like this would help our image abroad... just really hate it when we are taken aback in the economy just because we have the most circus every time we elect people for office. Sheeesh!

The President is being accused of betrayal of public trust, culpable violation of the Constitution and criminal responsibility with extra-judicial killings and disappearances, NBN-ZTE deal, North Rail Project, Mount Diwalwal Project, fertilizer scam among others.

I heard in the news this morning, that Joey de Venecia is asking for support with this impeachment complaint. I doubt it, they'll probably just end up noisy... I hope the economy just does not get affected by this! but it probably will. I hope former Speaker Jose De Venecia doesn't lobby this in the Congress, this will fireball more noise of course! Hate that!

I doubt that this will do something good. How about you? Comments please, thanks! ^_^
