A Surprise Birthday Party for Andre Paras

It was his birthday a few weeks ago but I've always asked, how do you actually surprise a smart guy like Andre Paras? It was hard, really hard. They told them they had a meeting, and got his schedules clear, he arrived on the dot and the press and bloggers were caught in traffic. Some of them passed by his car, he already thought something was going on, something smells fishy. We kept our hopes up that he would still be surprised and prepared for that moment. People went ahead and got ready expecting he was going to go up the stairs, but he went to the elevator instead LOL.

He's charming, I was a little worried about him being a little sad though that he didn't give that much times to the fans that were messaging him on Instagram and have seen them there during the event. He's trying as much as he can even if he's very busy and barely get sleep. He's enjoying his youth, he's still playing. He knows he's going to have to get serious roles in the coming years - but he's not in a hurry. He misses Kobe, his Dad too. He wants to enjoy what he's doing now and he's thankful he's got to celebrate his birthday with people from GMA Artist Center, media, the bloggers and his fans. He's never been this surprised though, and he's very thankful for that.

Here's the short interview with the good looking Andre Paras

He still appears in Half Sisters in more exciting episodes until next year. Stay tuned with the love problems he's going to bring to Ruru Madrid, Thea Tolentino and Barbie Forteza's characters in the series. After a one night stand with Ashley, a brewing war with him and Joaquin, will the lovers Diana and Bradley be back together again? Make sure you watch their show on GMA's Afternoon Prime! Plus perhaps a movie in the pipeline very soon!

Happy birthday Andre! Stay happy will you?! :)

Barbie Forteza: A Meaningful 18th Birthday Celebration

I was in the same place when Barbie Forteza celebrated her birthday party last year and she's at it again. When asked about how to celebrate her debut, she uttered "I am so happy, I am excited to turn 18 but can I wish for something? I don't want to have a party!" which started us to get interested how she wants to do it last July 31. Barbie wanted to use the money to celebrate for other meaningful things so she did the deed by going to Philippine Children’s Medical Center again, although this time, she's participating in the “Adopt-A-Room” program of the said hospital.

Kids here have a special place in Barbie's heart. She's actually been doing this in the last 4 years and with the program she could adopt a room, then transform and renovate it into a special private room. The proceeds of the room will go to the PCMC charity rooms on a continued basis so it could help countless children in charity cases, something she's always wished for every time she's here.

The project is still on going and Barbie's adopted room is still being worked on with the help of Architects Jose Ricky Martinez and Richie Ongteco. GMA Artist Center has also helped with the arrangements as usual. Barbie Forteza is officially the first celebrity to do this because the other rooms in the hospital were adopted by private institutions and brands. This is an opportunity that she says is very thankful for.

Barbie Forteza was also joined by her friends and fellow Kapuso artists Krystal Reyes and Thea Tolentino. She was also very thankful that they were there to help her give joy and gifts for the kids.

Barbie also joined in entertaining the kids of PCMC, a puppet show, gift giving and snacks were served. Barbie Forteza thanked her sponsors BNY, Unisilver Time, Posh Nails, Flawless, BS Mobile, Fruitas, Belladona Bags, Boysen Paint, Happy Haus Donuts, Pizza Pedricos, Kettle Korn, JC Catering, Cris-Carl Stuffed Toys, Megasoft Diapers, Muebles De Cristina Furniture, Fernando’s Bakeshop, Aquabest, Chocovron, Ritz Biscuits, Jao Ming Glutathione, RPKreativ, Dove and Fresh Look Contact Lenses for also chipping in on the renovation costs and giveaways during the small event.

This celebration was definitely meaningful, no wonder she's so blessed and still continue to be in GMA top rater Half Sisters. Stay humble and sweet Barbie!

Derrick Monasterio Bares Body in Half Sisters Today!

It looks like the end of teeny bopper roles for Derrick Monasterio. His top rating afternoon prime show Half Sisters is about to change because he got swayed to fight for his love with Diana played by Barbie Forteza. All along, Diana thought Bradley and Baste was in good terms but now she's going to be stuck trying to choose between her best friend and the love of her life. To add more spice to the mix, Derrick Monasterio is also bearing it all with a half naked scene in the pool party happening today when Half Sisters show on GMA Afternoon Primetime.

I've asked him about this a couple of months back, and he said he was holding back because he might not fit the teeny bopper role he's going for (since he's in this show with teen stars too). It's obvious that he's got a sculptured physique even back then, and I wonder what made him change his mind?

Bradley and Baste's relationship will sirely be rocked because of the schemes Ashley suggested to him. Now, Baste has the money, he's got the bullets to make the challenge a little tougher for Bradley. Would it even matter to Diana? Or will this just make matters worse?

He's got the physique of a demigod and of he's flaunting it to get the attention of Diana, is she the kind of girl to even consider looking at him now? We have to find out when Half Sisters shows a new improved Baste this afternoon right after Eat Bulaga.
