GMA’s Starstruck on their 7th Season

Starstruck is back, and they’re promising an even more exciting search for the greatest male and female survivor. Dream, Believe, Survive still means what it means as they announced how they are choosing some of the of the hopefuls this 2019. It’s their 7th Season, scoured the whole country and got 80 during first screening. They screened again and got that in half, then into 22 (which they are currently filming), and now face the judges Heart Evangelista, Ms. Cherie Gil and Jose Manalo. There will be only 14 survivors battling it out later on, they hope to get one male and female to be declared as their ultimate survivor.

Kyline Alcantara will serve as online host. So you can see her 6pm on social media channels and she’ll get to update you on what happens during, before and after the show. She was so pretty earlier armed with light makeup, nude lips and nude gown.

Dingdong Dantes says “First up, we will remove someone on the first episode. First gap, you will hear that familiar heartbeat. One of the major differences is social media, the hopefuls have no involvement with their journey back then but now they have direct access to them. Jenny now has tons of projects, she is committed to her craft. Whatever background they have, it doesn’t matter but you have to know their personality, on how they cope with the challenges. If they dance or sing, their story will reflect when they are on stage and you will see their authentic.”

Heart Evangelista says “It is such a big name ever since I watched the show. It is my first time to judge ,but it is an experience. They all have some characteristics to relate to, it takes time to know them but I can relate to their stories. It takes time to see their authenticity and star quality, it has to be how they carry themselves and I’d like to invest in their sense of being, it is my idea of star quality. I think it is important to also have talent, beauty can come later. ”

Ms. Cherie Gil says “I didn’t know Jennylyn came from this show but I was more part of Protege. Now with the final 14, we have them, each looking out for their dream and we have to be careful choosing them. I can tell there are some strong possibilities, but there are people who bloom, I hope it happens because they will have their moments. There will always be a second copycat. Millennials know when you are bsing them, so the word authenticity is great. My personal opinion is someone who has personality and talent, my expectations are high because I was looking for triple threats, if it goes with looks, then he’s the lucky one.”

Jose says “This is not easy because you have to decide once you see them, right then and there. The looks, they have that, but I am looking for someone who can do everything when he stands there, to find someone genuine but you want to look for how they develop into the person they are. You can see it when they stand in front of you.”

Starstruck will be aired Saturday June 15 and will be every weekend, make sure you support your favorites!

It’s been a very controversial week in the media and government service industry. Recently, the current DSWD Chief Rolando Bautista has drawn flak from radio announcer and TV personality Erwin Tulfo. With alleged threatening remarks and distasteful words against the former General, DSWD Chief Rolando Bautista recently released an official statement in reaction to the media personality’s public apology.

Several people, PMA Alumni, soldiers, officers, government employees and NGO’s showed stern support for DSWD head honcho and on his recent pronouncements, he has set a couple of conditions for him to accept the media personality’s apology.

It includes publication of the apology, in half page advertisements of leading newspapers for visibility. Upload/Publish his apologies on social media platforms and air it on leading radio stations in the country. He also would like to have the newscaster to donate at least Php 300,000 to each of 19 organizations he included on his statement, in the hopes of also helping them as well.

DSWD Chief Rolando Bautista was extremely thankful for the men and women who have shown support in the past few weeks and expresses high hopes the media personality would consider his conditions.

DSWD Chief Rolando Bautista was a former Lt. General who now leads the organization in aftercare and rehabilitating of drug personalities, and as of recent, does supervision for the enforcement of commitments indicated in the IRR for children in conflict areas, work in social pension projects and welfare of indigenous people. He also lead ground work during the Marawi siege as commnder of the 1st Infantry Divisions Joint Task Force Marawi and as Chief of the Philippine Army.

If his requests be met, we all hope for an amicable settlement that would win more for the people they serve.

Promate Partners with Thinking Tools Inc.

I have been carrying this power bank for about a year and a half because it just fits my lifestyle. I don't have to recharge it much because it just packs power a lot, and for three days of coverages it still works. Now I am no stranger with Promate because of these experiences and they have a lot of other products too. I bet it's time they expand elsewhere in the country. This recent development made them happy.

Ms. Virgin Tan the TTI COO says "We have been always keen to partner with Promate and we are very excited to carry their various range of products and accessories. This will serve our customers who want their peripherals, gadgets and devices in this region."

For those who want to know more about the brand or get their power banks, data and power cables or Bluetooth audio devices, it is available now in leading retail stores and 150 countries worldwide. 

I'm enjoying mine, you should too!
