Smart Infinity Brings CHICAGO "The Musical" in Manila

Oh it's CHICAGO!

When I heard the news that a world class show was in town, I had to get my hands on the keyboard and had to tell you this. If you loved the film adaptation last 2002 (which would probably make you feel a little old seeing that year) and adore the stories of Roxie Hart (played by Renee Zellweger) and Velma Kelly (played by the timeless Catherine Zeta Jones), then you are in for a treat an all star American cast will be performing here in the Philippines come December. Smart Infinity will bring the real deal theatrical show CHICAGO to Manila, but that's just the first good news!

This six time Tony Award winning musical will be made available first and exclusive to Smart Infinity subscribers. That's what you call exclusivity. That's what you call a huge perk! This means that before the public would be able to get tickets, Smart Infinity subscribers would be the first who would be able to get their hands on them. Aside from that, every new approved Smart Infinity plan application from now until September 8, 2014 will come with VIP tickets to the musical on top of the gadgets and services that come with it. 

Ms. Julie Carceller the Head of the Smart Infinity Business Group at Smart says “Just like the successful local runs of other world class spectacles such as "Cats",  "Mamma Mia", "The Phantom of the Opera" and the well loved "Wicked", bringing "Chicago" to the Philippines is again a very special gift for our Smart Infinity subscribers." 

Now if this was everything that they have, I'm definitely gonna want to have a subscription going. What perfect timing too that Chicago is going to be here right? Well, you better start checking out the Smart Infinity Plans here and see if it fits your budget. I've seen some of you spend a ton in prepaid accounts and don't even get the gadgets that you should have been getting if you were in a postpaid plan. See the difference and think Smart if you want to get more in plans that can get you to live more. Ticket selling will be open to the public on September 9. The show will run from December 2 up until the 21st on the brand new Solaire Theater! That's right after Celine Dion's concert if I'm not mistaken. All worthy to be watched! See you on December!

Erich Gonzales, JC De Vera and Enchong Dee for Once A Princess

JC De Vera, Erich Gonzales and Enchong Dee for Once A Princess

Today marks the showing of "Once A Princess", a film made by the one and the only Laurice Guillen for production houses Skylight and Regal Films. The film delves into the lives of two guys and one girl who had to go through different struggles in a flawed life. Some get rich, some go bankrupt, some choose to find love in spite of years in a hurtful marriage. Who will she choose in the end? Will she give up a painful relationship and give in to his wishes? Or will she follow her heart and pick up the pieces of a past love? We did the next best thing to answer those questions, we talked to Erich Gonzales, Enchong Dee and JC De Vera a few days ago and see what they think about the movie. Here are excerpts of the blogcon we had in the Star Cinema offices, ABSCBN.

It was fun and I reminisced the time when Enchong and Erich was last seen on TV. JC De Vera also was very intense and raw on this film, I think it did him good that he came in later on in the movie when everything was already shot half way to the movie.

Here are some photos of the cast during that afternoon.

The Cherry Mobile 3 Peat Launch

A few days ago, we had the chance of attending the launch of Cherry Mobile's newest products at the Hyatt Hotel in Manila. Honestly, I haven't been able to give Cherry Mobile a chance when choosing to buy phones because of rumors and the slack they've been having online. I had the impression that because they dish out cheaply priced phones, they'll have cheap built and quality too. I was proved wrong that afternoon, and yes I had my mind changed in a whole different way because I experienced one of the things they released that day first hand. Aside from that, Cherry Mobile also launched the one and only Pinoy App Shop dedicated to showcase a  all in one place marketplace for Filipino app developers that comes pre-installed (on new Cherry Mobile models) or can be installed from the Google play store .A move praised by the Filipino Game Developer community last July 31st.

Alvin Juban the President of Game Developers Association of the Philippines, Darwin Tardio of Funny Guy Studios, Honey de Peralta of Flipside Publishing, Neil Dagondon of Anino Games and Ria Lu of Komikasi Games and Entertainment welcomes the Pinoy App Shop and thanks Cherry Mobile for the move to make the industry local centric but not undermining consumers who wants free applications made for and by Filipinos who are developers mostly based from the Philippines. The only requirement is basic, it has to be made by Filipinos and judging from what I've seen on it... the games and activities are pretty cool. Some of it are even based on local Filipino street games like Sipa, Patintero, etc. all of which seemed to be also released internationally. 

 To make the great day even better, Cherry Mobile announced price changes on their premier phone and phablet lines.

The Fusion Aura is now priced at P1,999 (previously P2,299), the Ruby is now P2,499 (previously P2,899), the Life 2.0 phone is now P2,999 (previously P3,299) and the Omega Icon is now P4,999 (previously P6,499). Then they did the next best thing about the fifth and last gadget on their line, they let me win one of it on the raffle! Woot!

They christened this as the "Phablet ng Bayan" (National Phablet) because price wise, it's so affordable at P3,999. It's got an 8MP back camera, 3MP front cam, 13GHz Quad Core processor, Android 4.4 Kitkat OS, 5.0 inch scratchproof OHD IPS OGS display screen, 8GB ROM and 1GB RAM and dual sim capability. With these features, it beats phones at a whole different level with the same specs. I've also been using it since then and I am so loving the RED shiny color it has. It's available at other colors plus a matte black one but I'd rather choose this one since I'm a warrior. 

 It will only be released initially in Robinson’s Manila, SM City North EDSA and Graphics in Cagayan De Oro so what are you waiting for? Go grab them now before they run out of stock. You won't see anything of this grade at this price point anywhere else but with Cherry Mobile!
