MIKOY MORALES Renews Ties with GMA, Gets Milestones in Career and Lovelife

Looks like good man Mikoy Morales is getting a lot of good things in his life as her renews ties with GMA Artist Center just this week. For starters, he's got several shows which he appears in regularly and during the presscon, he divulged that he's in a relationship with a non showbiz person. He's also got several things in the pipeline which has something to do with music, I've been watching him stream quite often and I'm equally excited for him.

He was asked what else would he want to do now that he's stayed with the Kapuso network and says
"I wanna do a historical film, someone interesting. That's on top of mind. I am happily in a relationship now. I was clearing up a lot of deadlines and other work, going home and resting. Sometimes I am amazed at how GMA actually likes me, I'm not a conventional artist and I used to only just get an email when I renew but now have to do these interviews, so I'm really happy. Being in Bubble Gang is really a great experience, I'm kinda an insecure guy, but I feel I could power through things because of humor. At this point I don't know if my fans don't know me anymore, because I've been pretty open and also I want to do a lot of things that are outside of my comfort zone. Right now, I want to work with my personal friends Juancho, Mikee, and those that I've been able to have workshops with. Also Rocco, Mike Tan, I wish to do things because we have different projects and I hope we get to see each other on set. It's really a different kind of fun when we're together. Not just classmates, but really serious actors that I adore."

You can continue to see him in Pepito Manaloto, Bubble Gang, Lolong and other productions. He will also make music, mostly for films that will be using it for their soundtrack. That's just the tip of the iceberg, and we can't wait for more things to happy to one of our favorite boys in showbiz!

Bubble Gang Stages Musical On Their 22nd Anniversary

Has it really been that long? Yeah, I feel old all of a sudden. It's our favorite Gag show's 22nd anniversary, if you count that alone it's like an adult already but they're still dishing out jokes, skits, entertaining numbers every Friday on GMA. They must have felt it's time to actually do something different, something that they all have never done before, and this Friday they'll tell you a LAUGH story with the use of the songs of Parokya Ni Edgar who has encompassed and been loved by generations of Baby Boomers, Generation X, Y, Xennials, Millenials and just about anyone in the Philippines. We were there when they taped this two part episode a few days ago. 

Let me just tell you first, this was absolutely an awesome show! I saw Michael V, Kim Domingo, Paolo Contis, Mikael Daez, Betong Sumaya, Diego and the rest of the cast sing and dance all throughout the performance treating it like they've been doing theater already. If you see this all later, you would probably be one of the many people who would want to see this staged.

I also saw that Michael V was a big part of the production, he even made changes to the script and seeked the help of real theater directors in order to put this out there. We were not really allowed to take videos inside the studio but trust me, all these photos don't do justice with the show they're about to broadcast later at 10PM. Parokya Bentedos is also about a love story, but I don't want to spoil things so make sure you watch the first part later!

I extremely like Betong's character here as Michael V's Mom, his antics portraying that just had us laughing everytime she sings. The kind that would almost make you pee in your pants lol!

Juancho Trivino, Antonio Aquitana, Mikoy Morales are also in this musical. You might hate or love them in the end.

Please make sure you watch their show later this evening as Bubble Gang presents Parokya Bentedos: A Laugh Story on the heart of Asia, GMA!

Betong and Arny Ross for Bubble Gang's 20th Anniversary: PaGMAmahalan Blogcon

 During the PaGMAmahalan Blogcon we sat down with Arny Ross and Betong of GMA's long running comedy gag show, the multi awarded Bubble Gang. I've been an avid viewer myself and this time, they're actually celebrating their 20th year. Now, I feel a little old when I heard that announcement but of course it's a feat for a show to actually last that long. They've done so many changes in the past few years and if you think about it, they also have gotten the cast mixed up as some have left for greener pastures, some have also left for other channels. Although, one thing remains the same, they're still a great part of the success of Bubble Gang. From likes of Ogie Alcasid, Toni Gonzaga (oh yes she was there too!), and a lot of other stars, they're going to celebrate on November 27 in a different way because it'll be like a documentary on how Bubble Gang came about. They're also doing head way in making the next year of the program even better. You'll be seeing more characters, more skits, more funny jokes and experiences that you haven't seen before in past shows.

Arny Ross knows men are going to be doubly excited about their dance moves. They're planning to up the ante on choreography and perhaps the naughtiness too. It'll be shown on mostly all the gaps of the show so guys, you really have something to look forward too. I also asked Betong about how Michael V. seems to have been able to hold this ship together and if he feels he's actually in training to do that same job too. He says no but was thankful but he feels it's going to be a little impossible to do the show without him on it. Bitoy as he says is an overall guy, the writing, the direction, the execution, seem to have fallen on Michael V's hands and they don't think they'd be successful without him.

Betong also adds he's so blessed to have the chance to portray Antonietta. He also got to work with the Philippines' most finest contrabidas with the likes of Jacklyn Jose, Gladys Reyes, Cherie Gil, Odette Khan (who was my personal favorite) and Ms. Celia Rodriguez (who Betong pronounces he learned a lot from because she shared a lot of tips being a contrabida). That same character also has been able to take Betong to a lot of places, even in the US too where she performed alongside other GMA artists. He's promising an even better Bubble Gang in the coming years and hopes you'll also love some new characters he'll be doing which are all in the pipeline.

Here's an excerpt of our interview with Arny and Betong
