MYRTLE SARROSA Renews Ties with SISTERS

I love seeing Myrtle Sarrosa who made waves after winning PBB, and now being part of GMA's Sparkle management. The young creator and superstar cosplayer just recently signed with SISTERS Sanitary Napkins under Megasoft Hygienic Products Inc. She was so happy to have heard the news that they were renewing her contract but have shown even before that if her contract expires, she will always be a part of SISTERS and their causes. You see before the pandemic, they've been advocating female health and hygiene visiting schools and communities to teach them all about it.

For those who don't know, Myrtle is not just an accomplished actress, she's also graduated Cum Laude at the University of the Philippines in Diliman. According to Ms. Aileen Choi Go, Megasoft’s Vice President for Sales and Marketing "It was an easy decision to renew ties with Myrtle for Sisters as she embodies what Sisters Feminine Care stands for which is "School is Cool". She's a role model for young girls, teens, women who prioritize education, finishing it, and juggle the demands of acting and work all these years. Our projects including talks on feminine hygiene took a turn while we were in the pandemic. This is why we resorted to doing it online and worked with Myrtle too in creating content for it."

Here's the part wherein we asked questions about what steps they took to take care of their employees during the pandemic.

Myrtle adds "I really miss the face to face events that we do in different parts of the Philippines, but I'm glad to have been able to do virtual meets arranged by Sisters whole team. They get really excited and I'm glad that we'll continue to do this as restrictions ease. I can't wait to get back doing school tours."

All of these are what Megasoft Hygienic Products Inc. want to do in the next few months. They are still aiming to provide essential hygiene products for every Filipino. 

Congratulations Myrtle and the whole Megasoft fam on renewing your ties!

SING GALING To Do Back to Back Finale at THE MANILA METROPOLITAN THEATER

It was so fun to have been able to go out and cover events again. As restrictions ease in Manila, TV5 invited us to the grand dame of theaters, The Manila Metropolitan Theater. This place was officially opened last year and this is officially the first time that a live event for TV is being held here as SING GALING is doing back to back grand final events this coming March 5 and 12.

This is possible as they've forged a partnership with the National Commission for Culture and the Arts. They gave us a peek on what will happen to the Ultimate Pa-Sing-Katan for the celebrity edition and Kantastic Finale for the regular edition. They had all the contestants for the regular edition present and a Chuckie Dreyfus, Boobsie Wonderland and Aljur Abrenica too. The celebrities will also have their chosen charities benefit from it so the stakes are definitely higher.

Check out this video I made of our visit there!

I'll be doing a separate video for the tour of The Met, so subscribe and stay tuned for that. Meanwhile, you're going to also see Pepe Herrera, Jerald Napoles and Patrick Quiroz for the finale. You also have the chance to choose what song they'll be singing through their Facebook page plus the ability to vote for the winner through Facebook Messenger. They partnered with Meta's Facebook just for that. QR Code for voting will appear on the show and posted on their social channels. Up for grabs is a 1 Million prize and a house and lot so it's going to be a serious battle. It'll be livestreamed on https://www.facebook.com/singgalingtayo/ https://www.facebook.com/TV5manila/ and their official YouTube account.

What struck me most was the judges, as the contestants told us, pretty much loved the time they spent together. They felt like equals, and Mr. Rey Valera even made them their own single, in hopes of releasing an album with them on it. Doesn't that fell like pieces falling together for OPM? Oh surely, it'll be a good time to watch the show at 6PM on those dates.

MAYMAY ENTRATA Spends Quality Time with Fans at MEGANdang Buhay Event

A hopeful woman with a keen, positive outlook in life... we saw Maymay Entrata during an event hosted by MEGAN Beauty Products. I remember when she was tapped as the brand's endorser and how she was so happy to have been able to share how it has been a beautiful addition to the brands that believe in her and today, was a testimony of that.

This is a virtual meet and greet dedicated Maymay's stern supporters, her most loyal fans and the media. During the event, her whole Megan Beauty family came and supported her as they prepared activities and games to break the ice. The brand was certainly there to support Maymay's career and MEGAN knows a lot of people have been inspired by her story. Albeit facing a lot of issues this past, she has been able to accomplish a lot despite the challenges thrown to her, and the brand sees it as something to celebrate with. This is Maymay's MEGANdang Buhay and they hope we could learn a thing or two during various segments of the event, the jokes in between and the much awaited question and answer portion where Maymay shared a lot of things to her supporters. Here's a part of that talk where they got to ask her tough questions.  

 

Maymay also shares "I've been planning to study abroad for the longest time even when I wasn't working in the industry. It happened already, which is why I am so happy. This whole February has been so amazing. I am overjoyed that I got to be with the one I love, and also, a lot of people in my family are celebrating their birthdays and I got to celebrate with them. I am also ecstatic that we have an addition to the family when my cousin gave birth a few days ago, this month is full of blessings and I can't thank the one above for that!" 

Being with MEGAN has also given her a needed boost of confidence, they believed in her, she says "It hasn't been easy to become confident about myself. MEGAN has become my family, a reason why I believe in my own true beauty. They believe in me, they were the first ones to do that when I was just starting. Thank you MEGAN for that!"

Maymay started endorsing MEGAN Beauty products in 2018 and has been really using popular MEGAN Peel-Off Masks, MEGAN Face Sheet (which I personally use too after putting in the fridge for an hour or two), MEGAN Nose Pore Strips (to remove unwanted skin impurities in the nose area), MEGAN Facial and Body Wax Kits (for keeping it tidy, clean and hair free), MEGAN Eye Gel Patch (for those puffy moments) and the MEGAN Clay Masks.

The President of MEGAN Beauty Lawrence Lee quips "We cannot express how thankful we are for the support we're getting and our products. Having Maymay Entrata as our endorser was just natural, she's a proud Filipina. Like our brand, we want you to embrace who you are because we're here to take care of your skin." Maymay also reiterates "I hope you enjoy the few hours we've spent here together, although we're not doing this in a physical event, I hope you feel the need to follow your heart and find your happiness. Don't be afraid to take risks because at the end of the day, it'll be all worth it!"

As of this writing, her recently released single AMAKABOGERA has amassed 12.6 Million views which she didn't really expect. When she saw the lyrics for the first time, heard the track and saw the story board for it, she was overwhelmed that it exploded like this in just a few days. 

 

Cheers to more success of Maymay and the brand MEGAN as she continues her journey with them!
