FRANCINE DIAZ and SETH FEDELIN Clears Few Things During "MY FUTURE YOU" Presscon

We just got off the press conference of My Future You, the new Regal Films entry for the 50th year of the Metro Manila Film Festival. This stars Francine Diaz and Seth Fedelin, the couple known as FranSeth has this as their first ever movie together.

Seth says "I'm at a point where I could protect her, I can fight for her, I think that is what I feel about her now. I can stand on my own two feet and I'll be in front of her. We want to thank everyone who are supporting us, especially for the movie and Regal Films. We know how much you are doing block screenings, it's hard because most of you are not earning much yet, as young as us, and we are happy about your feedback, we feel we're doing something right. We are just starting with My Future You and we still have a lot to prove. That's why we are hungry to do this, we dedicate our work for all of you. I wish I could make my siblings finish their studies, build my own home, have another installment of My Future You, finish my studies, have a person to love me, understand me, and I think that will happen very soon. I wanted to be a seaman, because that's how I saw my Uncle, and ended up doing PBB. Now I want to be a pilot, but know how expensive that is, and the time to spend for that course. I hope I could have time to do that, or just graduate. I feel good when I was the one watching movies during MMFF, being rated G means everyone in the family could go inside theaters and watch films."

 

Francine says "We're best of friends and it's nice to know that I have someone to protect me. It's huge, we owe the existence of FranSeth with our fans. We have young followers, we're not perfect but we do our best to make sure they are happy too, and the things we can give them as an example. I want to give my family's needs before mine, create my own path, and come home to my future. I just want that to happen, that's enough for me. This is the first time we are together, it's a sign that what we have been working for all these months can be loved by folks who would watch it. You can just get everyone at home to see it."

Direk felt so good about the movie being G rated by MTRCB. This means that even the kids can see the movie. This is under Regal Films and they've had a tradition of making projects like this film every Christmas. If you want to support the two fine actors, make sure you watch "My Future You" in cinemas from December 25 onwards!

Still Dishing Out Freshly Squeezed Content: Orange Magazine Celebrates 14 Years!

I've had the opportunity to know about Orange Magazine a couple years ago, well decades, maybe even more. It's been 14 years of showcasing some of the freshest and orangey celebrities, companies, brands, and they've really done well in making sure to put their message across. 

Orange Magazine Editor Jeman Bunyi Villnueva has been a friend. One that you can talk frankly with if you're in a rut. You can say we're some of the more experienced bloggers in the industry together with a few common friends who's been here the longest. Every year, he's managed to celebrate their milestones and showed how much he's thankful for those who have supported his website and social channels. 

 

In his 14th year, we were all invited to his gathering at Joy Nostalg Hotel and Suites (Managed by Accor). At The Roof, they had a program featuring Filipino Canadian artists DK Tijam, DK Talents Keyleigh Cerezo, Keeana Cerezo and local acoustic guy Destiny Palisoc who opened the event. DK Tijam by the way will be having a concert at the Music Museum on August 16th with power belter Dessa and Troy Laureta. They will also be joined by Antoinette Targa, Chelsea Star and Bella Magbag plus other surprise guests. They properly call it "By Request: Your Playlist Live on Stage", and they'll be performing some of their OPM favorites plus a few RnB and Pop numbers which is equally exciting!

Orange Magazine has been given accolades and recognition from different bodies. Jeman was a bit emotional thanking the PR agencies, brands that have returned the favor and made their presence felt during the occasion, they even sent some goodies plus a few prizes for blogger/influencer guests amounting to almost 250K to be given just on this day.

"Orange Magazine and I would like to thank their sponsors Beautéderm (for all the beauty products they sent), PLDT Home, AirAsia, airasia MOVE (who gave local and international flights to lucky winners), Grab (who gave Grab credits), Narr8 PH, M360 PR+Activations Agency, LG Philippines (who gave LG products for lucky participants), DITO Telecommunity, foodpanda, EON PH, TikTok Shop, RLC Residences (who also gave Robinsons GC's), realme (who gave audio devices), AGENTS, International Persuasion Specialist, Launch & Meet, maya, COMCO Southeast Asia, Midea, LadyBug, FuentesManila Public Relations, GCash, Eggshell PR, Metrobank, Bridges Creative Ideas & Strategies, OPPO, Doogee, HONOR Philippines, Buensalido Public Relations, Stratworks, Dominguez Marketing Communications Inc., Pau Bautista, Potato Corner (who gave potato corner GC's), Cherry Philippines (who gave the Air Purifier which I won), Kingsford Hotel Manila (for us who won the hotel stay!), Grand Westside Hotel, Ardent Communications, BrandComm, Grupo Agatep, Mang Inasal, Full Circle Communications, Precious PR, WSP, Tai Chi Rub & VCO Liniments, Moringa Vita, JG Superstore (who gave some tripods to lucky ones), Manila Marriott Hotel, Novotel Manila Araneta City, ibis Styles Manila Araneta City, Centaur Marketing, SceneStealer, SAFC, Spark It Philippines, DMNA, Home Credit PH, Michael Cruz (of the Home Credit PH peeps), Corner Magazine PH, Shigetsu, Kleenfant, Mikana, ALPAS Consultancy, Mobile Legends: Bang Bang, Moonton (who gave us lucky ones Diamonds for the game), Lorem Ipsum Consulting Inc., Whip Public Relations & Communications, Lilee & Kukael by Gus Villa, City of Dreams Manila, Phillippine Integrated Advertising Agency (PIAA), The Bellevue Manila, Nawa Wellness, Calatagan, ASUS, Swissotel Clark, Widus Hotel Clark, MSL Influence Impact, Greenwich, Goldilocks, The Farm at San Benito, A-List & Partners Consulting Group Inc., Pascual Laboratories, Ascorbic Acid Poten-Cee (which gave their best products to lucky ones), BrandIt, SKECHERS (gave a pair of shoes to Rod Magaru), MODE DEVi Media Inc., Chuck Gomez, Sip & Chug Coffee (owned by Sai Montes, had good drip coffee!), Pix Republik/Reel Republik Studios (for our official photos), Ogilvy, Epson, DigitalHog, Reneue Beauty and Wellness, CAT PR, Rain Ferdinand, IPR, Utterly Techie, Renjie Tolentino Photography (a good friend who also did shots for the event, he does it professionally)."

Now, he's got a whole team he calls Team Orange who helps him with events and coverage. They're pretty good people. Jeman knows how to also discern folks, and to this day, he's still going to be talking a lot, writing a lot, and connect to even more people. I only wish him all the best, because that's exactly what he has been doing. Plus he wants a love life happen soon, maybe that would make it complete. 

Congratulations to Orange Magazine! From us at KUMAGCOW.COM (meaning me), we'll be cheering you on to reach even greater milestones in the coming years!

35 Strong Years of Celebrating EVERY WOMAN: Philippine WACOAL Corporation

35 strong years of celebrating EVERY WOMAN, this is the journey of Philippine Wacoal Corporation.

Having been able to support and dress the Filipina intimately in the Philippines, this retail brand showcased their latest products through a fashion show in Okada's Grand Ballroom last June 20. Their executives including Philippine Wacoal Corporation President Ms. Ann Christine Palisoc, award winning celebrities Janice de Belen, Gelli de Belen, comedienne Candy Pangilinan, actress Natalie hart, Trina Candaza, Arlene Muhlach, legendary Eva Darren and several Sparkle stars during that evening. 

They also had Ms. Karen Davila as guest speaker, and recognized 4 icons Ms. Lorna Tolentino, Ms. Glenda Garcia , the gorgeous Ms. Glenda Dela Cruz and the heavenly Jamie Rivera. Power belter Ms. Sheryn Regis and a few acts also graced the show and performed for the audience including the fashion show depicting empowered women in 4 acts.

Here's the whole show on video, please enjoy!

They called it HER (for Ms. Glenda), HEALING (for Ms. Glenda Garcia), ARMOR (for Ms. Lorna Tolentino), and TRANSFORMATION (for Ms. Jamie Rivera). They named it after their personal experiences, the battles they've fought, and the things it represents.

They also made sure we felt how WACOAL has encompassed the matters of race, body type and the importance of how women should always exude confidence. This show didn't just celebrate their anniversary, but WOMEN. WACOAL also isn't stopping there, because they now have a huge sale in their stores, boutiques, and online via their website wacoal.ph.

Here's hoping for another year, more milestones and even more empowered women in the country!

PS. The fashion show and program was also organized by V-Works Events Management. They handled it quite well and did put up a great show. Congratulations on that!
