Boy Abunda Urges You to Choose #50 and Fabulous!

Friday, April 01, 2022


The King of Talk Boy Abunda always wanted to help improve the lives of the people in his hometown, Borongan in Eastern Samar. It was always in his mind, of which he wished he could do more, to help this place and nearby communities... see it develop even more as its got promise, lots of potential, even as people lived so simple in the countryside.

It's a bit complicated, but he knew it would be a missed opportunity not to do that. Everybody knows t's a very tall order to do that by himself... and he would need help to achieve that. Tito Boy saw Party List #50 "Ang Probinsyano" do work in 2019. As a representative of those who desire development in the rural, far flung areas. Watching from the sidelines, he looked into their achievements during the last 3 years, to figure out if they're party list have been true to their cause, and he wasn't disappointed. He saw how Ang Probinsyano worked hard to bring food, health essentials to isolated communities during the pandemic. They also took time to file bills in congress that aim to increase the quality and give access to education. They also authored bills that would build more infrastructure and give social services to the marginalized communities like fishermen, farmers, artisans and SME's to make them sufficient later on. They also funded projects with them in mind which Boy Abunda also found apt especially if they're in the business of changing lives of people in the provinces, generate jobs right there so they wouldn't have to depend on finding one in metropolitan areas.

This was surely something Boy Abunda have been impressed with. So when the opportunity to become an adviser and volunteer came, as a probinsyano himself, he accepted it with arms wide. He says "When I finally got to know Congressman Afred delos Santos (who is the party's first nominee) I recognized how our dreams were similar and I told him, I'm impressed with what Ang Probinsyano has done for promdis around the country in such a short time. This even with the pandemic happening. That's why I'm willing to help "Ang Probinsyano" in making sure provinces would get the help they need for a better Philippines. I know it's a little confusing in the party list system now, and this is why I'm going around telling people to choose #50 when election day comes as other parties made the list with same sounding names. It's important for them to take note of this so as not to lose a party that worked hard and remain true to their advocacy." He adds "We have to make sure that we choose #50 and fabulous!"


The party is also supported by premiere actor Piolo Pascual, JM de Guzman and social media darling Donnalyn Bartolome. Albeit the difference in age with Tito Boy, he knows how they embraced provincial life and volunteered spreading the word about "Ang Probinsyano" which is slated #50 in the ballot. They want to make sure you get the representation you deserve and help those who are in the province.

Viva Films Outs Jacqueline Comes Home

Friday, July 13, 2018




A usual Filipino family who hailed from Cebu, living a normal life - and suffers a shocking crime, one that would cause loss of lives. This is the Chiong Family story, based on real life events that happened in 1997, who's daughters got murdered as told by the victim's mother, Madame Thelma Chiong. This movie is called Jacqueline Comes Home.




Donnalyn says "This has been made with the storyline of the interview with the victims mother so you are going to see and hear the Mother's side of the story. I  am not going to be showing skin, because these are normal teens we are talking about. They are also born of very conservative families. Happy to note there are no accidents, even if I didn't want any limitations as long as it's shown nicely on screen. Ryan Eigenmann was also very careful because it's my first time, re enacting it was so traumatic so imagine what it would have been for the real victim. People really have to be careful and have chaperone all the time. Your parents should still know where you are going, tell them our whereabouts so they don't have to worry. This film should have been shown later this year, but I didn't know they would show it the same month as my other film with Ella Cruz. I am glad I got to work with Meg, she's a very nice person. If this would happen now, I wouldn't want death for them, perhaps just suffer years in prison as they need to also be liable for their actions."


Meg adds "I am a little cultured in rape scenes so it was quite easy for me, the only difference perhaps is making it still viewable by an R-13 audience. Direk made sure to take care of the scenes. I even ask them to make it more intense so I could also feel the pain, I said that a few times to the rapists because they were very careful with us. This is a nice thing for teens to watch so they would be careful about meeting people in social media. If this happens now, I would love to see this be on trial, in a fair setting, a good justice system."




Jacqueline will be portrayed by Meg Imperial and Donnalyn Bartolome will play Marijoy, whilst Joel Torre (Dionisio) and Alma Moreno (Thelma) will be their parents in this film directed by Ysabelle Peach Caparas, daughter of famed director Carlo J. Caparas who also assisted her in this film. According to the mother, these teens have been abducted, tortured, raped and killed. They will also show how they strived for justice all these years, in the hopes of finding the culprit, the murderers of daughters.


This movie will be seen on July 18, 2018 in cinemas nationwide. This is produced by Viva Films.

Give CRY NO FEAR a Chance

Friday, June 22, 2018


Donnalyn Bartolome, Ella Cruz and Director Richard Sommes


It’s been a week or so since Cry No Fear was shown in cinemas. I watched it together with a couple of bloggers during their premier night. Viva artists came in throngs and celebrity friends supported them dearly. Honestly I expected that I wouldn’t enjoy this film because I don’t really watch horror flicks. They did surprise me - as this runs more on the sexy, coming of age, suspense genre rather than just plain horror. It would be worthy to watch especially if you are a fan of Donnalyn Bartolome and Ella Cruz as you’ll see them unfold their sexy side. Not even joking.


Supportive love team Julian Trono


I like the chases, I like the action sequences and the little to no bloody shots, but would have wanted more than that. The ending wasn’t too impressive too as parts of it weren’t realistic. It would have been better to keep the highs still high and perhaps ended it with that rather than forcibly connecting the start of the story.

Donnalyn and Ellla

Donnalyn and Ella used to be in cute roles, this would maybe start them in more mature ones because it felt like that.
 
 
Would I recommend it, perhaps for the fans. Give it a chance though because it is still fun.

Cry No Fear is still showing in select theaters, this is produced by Viva Films.
