KZ Tandingan, TJ Monterde in CDO for VIVO

 CDO has such a place in my heart because of it's people. I've been there once and every time I reminisce about what things I did there, I enjoyed it most meetings strangers that helped me go around the city. Seeing how improved it is over the years, I felt like it's bound to succeed to be an economic powerhouse in the south much like the other ones in Mindanao. 

If you don't know, most of the brands in Manila don't actually get the bulk of their business from here but in Visayas and Mindanao. Vivo knows this so in turn they held a concert for their fans in Limketkai Mall. I've been watching KZ Tandingan do well in SINGER 2018 in China and is continuing to do well in the rankings, even beat Jessie J in one of the rounds. Her boyfriend TJ Monterde is also making waves locally so who better to make the concert even special but them right? They are both Vivo brand ambassadors for years now. This was also a post valentine gig on February 17, so why not get them there right?

 To even make things better, they got X Factor alumni Jeric Medina, Chandreena, and Shameena Moorjani as well as CDO based Visayan pop singer Winset Jacot. They became front acts before the big show, which everyone in that mall enjoyed because they were very good performers too.

Vivo gave away V7 smartphones to two lucky fans who posted online during the concert. Then TJ and KZ personally handed them out during the last part of the show.

KZ came from this province and seeing them do this concert there was just the right thing to do right after she found her new found fame in China. They will continue to do these stints around the country and not just deliver the best phones they have in their arsenal, if you have questions about them or want to follow what events they have this year, visit the Vivo website at www.vivo.com/ph.

McJim: Local but World Class

I’ve been watching McJim Leather lately and they’ve gone quite great lengths churning out new designs that would be perfect for the classy Filipino man. Just a few months ago they did an international shoot in Montreal Canada showcasing some of the best pieces they have in their collection from black and brown leather wallets, casual to classy leather belts with proud buckles, shoulder bags, cross body bags, gadget bags, full on leather ones that would impress anyone that would see it. They’ve honestly been paving the way in changing the way people see how local products quality should look like. By making sure they have control over what comes out of their factories, and have it not just follow but set a trend of making these local products superior, making them world class, a direction they have undertaken regardless of how much it would cost because now we’ve got some of the best, and Filipinos are enjoying it.

These items now have the ability to mature elegantly and last a long time. That means that even if there’s a small premium in price compared to local ones in the market, you get your moneys worth because it will end up lasting a bit more as they prioritize quality. I’ve personally bought the wallets and belts which they sell in leading department stores because of that. It has lasted me for years and if it weren’t for a change in season (and a lot more membership cards) I wouldn’t have felt the need to change one because style wise, classics would never go passe.

They are going further, they had the opportunity to create great things and they have achieved it. I wish there was a way all other brands would follow suit so when you hear something LOCAL it wouldn’t mean we’re compromising quality. McJim is world class, and they’re not afraid of showing it. Might as well, if you pass by a kiosk in deparment stores, take a real good look at it and see how they’ve changed over the years.

VIVO Y69 Face ID Access Activation

Told you a day before that VIVO ain't stopping innovating and this is one of those instances. Aside from the real strong importance to security, they've managed to get a feature up to the well loved VIVO Y69 phone. It''s affordable but doesn't lack the feature some mid-range phones already are getting. You are not short changed and all you need to do is do a system update.

This is one of the nice things that they can do because of their proprietary Funtouch OS. Once you install the Funtouch OS update the Y69 will be equipped with the Face ID Access. You can just elect your own face to be the one to unlock your phone, it measures points and features on your face and unlocks it fast.

For those who don't know, the Y69 models run on powerful processors. It's got little to no bugs as it's got a MediaTek MT6750 and 3GB RAM plus a 32GB ROM with it. You can also insert a microSD Card up to 256GB and it'll still work, that's a lot of storage for more photos and videos I bet.

If you want to know more about this phone or the other models, visit www.vivo.com/ph or their social media channels. They've got everything there!

KathNiel and Chard on the Last 2 Weeks of La Luna Sangre

When I heard news that the show will end in 2 weeks I felt a little sad because judging from the story, I think it could still go somewhere interesting from making their romance a little adventurous to putting them and their breed’s lives in danger. I have been watching this show for quite a while now but I’m still excited to see it every weekday, probably the same as with any fan of the show. If it ends the whole line of shows would also feel incomplete because the fantasy-action component not seen in other tv programs won’t be sufficient, we know how important that feels right? Anyway, I guess in a way I felt how hard it was to actually film the show because they had instances where they needed to film today so it would be shown the next day giving then little to no sleep. Honestly it’s not just the cast I’m worried with but the people behind the whole show, it just isn’t healthy and they felt that I guess. Still, I think this had brought a lot of things on the table and fans are still happy about the story, in a way I understand some of the naysayers when they’re not but I hope they are still happy they get to see them almost everyday on screen. We got to interview some of them the other day and I was so excited to see Richard Gutierrez, Daniel Padilla and gorgeous Kathryn Bernardo.

Richard says “As far as my character knows, we are siblings but if there would be changes we’ll know in the last few weeks. When I first started with La Luna Sangre, I thought about it, it was a risk. The risk I took paid off for myself and the audience. If ever I woud be offered something like this I’d do it in a heartbeat, I think it did spread what I have in the horizon. I just can’t reveal because the fights will be everyday, like the one you will watch later. It’ll be exciting. I don’t know what plans we have after this but I’m doing a movie with Star Cinema. I’ll just spend time with my family first then do that one with Angel and Angelica. It’s a tough act to follow, I know. I am thankful to the creative teams, they made my character evil but didn’t really make the fans angry against me. I’m also have my baby next month, so it’s good timing. If I were to choose the end of Sandrino, I hope people would get to understand him too even if he is that evil. I can’t even understand him sometimes because he always goes ballistic, so we’ll see.”

Daniel says “I know it’s stressful, we are close and for all those who have supported us from the beggining, I want to thank them all. We have action, drama, not easy because we don’t have time because it’s for airing. Fight scenes last night for example, it ended 2-4 in the morning. I already have Vampire blood, the evil just creeped in after everything that happened. We love each other, unless it’s not there anymore we will fight for it. It’s a combination of my happiness, my family, a combination of everything. We don’t have a story con yet for the movie but we will talk about it after LLS and it is going to be a love story. I enjoyed Tristan when he wasn’t a vampire yet. It was fun and humbling to shoot in Quiapo, we have several fight instructors. I learned a lot from them. Kath doesn’t have powerful fight scenes and I feel it. ”

Kath says “Mixed emotions for me, it was really hard, lots of adjustments for Malia, but I like the relationships I’ve had because I will miss everyone that I’ve worked with. The staff, the director, I learned a lot after these 10 months. Hopefully, after LLS we will have a US Tour and after resting for 2 weeks we will have a movie with Direk Cathy.From Malia and Tristan, I learned love is powerful. The things we went through, even if they are evil, you can change it with love. There are challenges, but with DJ and I, we’re together. We are doing our jobs, our fans also give us purpose. It’s mu first time to do action scenes, first time to be a boy, first time to be extremely hands on and if you love the project you will be collaborative, we even ask to revise the script. We became more independent and our Directors know this is teamwork. I also have learned how to be a little tough, be warrior like, I hope I get that from her. If I have Daniel during the fight scenes, he helps me a lot because he corrects my forms. If I had something to change, it would be just to have MORE TIME because sometimes we could have done better but because it’s for airing later we need to put effects.”

They know they have a following and how the moonchasers also have contributed in making the show be a little in touch with the community. They are thankful how you all have followed the show these 10 months. It exists for a reason, and they are doing this for you. You have to know that.
