GMA Offers DRAGON LADY on Afternoon Prime

It looks like GMA is banking on a new fantasy series in the afternoon. They treat all their timeslots equal and if this is morning or night, it will all be like primetime, every time.

Tom Rodriguez says “I hope I could live up to her expectations. Janine makes it easy to jump into the scene, I am lucky to have experienced that with other actresses but the work we have done before felt like I was a little spoiled and if that was indicative of what is about to happen then I am afraid how we will have fun in this show. I am not nervous because the people we work with are very collaborative. We always try to get to the same page, we spent an entire afternoon as a group plus a familiarity workshop with each other. Even when I was starting I didn’t really stick to one partner and I get to experience working with other actors and actresses so there is a bit of a lucky thing to so that. I sometimes get too scared to share things but I did that when we talked so now we’re more of a team and that’s a good thing.”

Janine Gutierrez says “I can’t really show what the Dragon Lady looks like but it takes me three hours to do makeup and prosthetics. In the beginning she really was born with it, but not to spoil anything, it wouldn’t be told in the story yet. I have seen the heavy prosthetics and it was a little effort to do it, it made me nervous. When I saw the final product, it was something different. In real life, I am a little strict, some people may tell me I am like a dragon lady in real life. What is good about Celestina is that she is fighting for something, to standup for her family, to standup for herself. As an artist, if it’s a good story, we are game for that. This will break things that may imply I am just a sweet girl, it’s on a whole other level, it will literally be something that I haven’t done in any role. This literally will have me breathing fire, figuratively too.”

Watch out for the story of Michael Chan and Celestina as they introduce you to the Dragon Lady as their love story unfolds on GMA Afternoon Primetime.

MOA Sweet Eats: Valentines Rock from Made In Candy

What date is it now? Well, it's only a few days before the dreaded Valentines Day comes and you probably haven't thought about getting her a gift right? If that's the case, might I suggest you drop by Made In Candy at Mall of Asia or their other branches near you? When we visited their branch in Mall of Asia a few days ago, I was surprised to see their laboratory, well I think that was what they wanted us to think because inside their store, they make the candies on the spot!

The table had these whimsically colored test tubes and flasks that contain the individual flavors of candies that they can use and they actually use them, then combine with different ones to make that special candy that you wish you had when you were a kid.

I also saw some guys buying stuff for their girlfriends already, more so because Made In Candy made a whole special batch of candies that is dedicated to Valentines Day. If you want one that is customized, you can ask them to make you one for special occasions but it'll cost around 11K++. It's probably going to be worth it if it's just for weddings or debuts but if you wish it's something affordable, you can opt for their special "Valentines Rocks" and make your woman happy.

It's also available in these cute little jars that you can purchase for less or more than a hundred bucks. It's kinda cheap but it doesn't look like it. I'm tired of the usual box of chocolates so maybe if you're looking for something new to give to that special girl, this one just might work.

Or if you prefer, they have some of it in packets and if you're around the store, they would also have some few pieces out for tasting. Pair this up with a bouquet of flowers and she's going to be a happy camper. You know how that goes. You probably might get something in return too, who knows! But trust me on the candy.
