Happy Birthday Britney Spears
Posted by
The Editor's Lounge
December 2: We are not ready for Britney Spears to be thirty, so it's with great joy that we wish the pop goddess a very happy 29th birthday today.
Brit is now well over 100 million records sold worldwide for Jive, which includes 32 million in the U.S. alone.
It's always a problem selecting just one Britney photo to use every December 2nd, so we hope you enjoy this offering from the Sony Music photo library: it dates from around the time of her second lp, 2000's "Oops I Did It Again."

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows now on Philippine cinemas

Harry Potter series got a multitude of fans in the Philippines; and it is not surprising anymore to see the metro movie houses jam-packed with HP fanatics.
Brace yourself because today, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows movie will start to dominate the movie houses.
Last night when I was at the SM Mall of Asia, I saw one of their staff changing the names on their movie bulletin board. Though I expected it, I am still surprised to see that SM MOA allotted more than six (6) cinemas for the first day of showing of HP7.
Why I blog this? Because I am an avid fan of Harry Potter series. It is my dream to have a collection of its series from the Sorcerer's Stone to Deathly Hallows. (I guess I have to save thousands of bucks for it...hahaha!)
I am planning to watch it but not today. May be a week or two from now.

Justin Bieber's first unplugged album

I am a big fan of Ryan Seacrest since I saw him on American Idol. For one thing, I admire his hosting prowess. No wonder he received citations for such.
I just want to share this: Ryan Seacrest will be doing an interview tomorrow with teen icon Justin Bieber. From Seacrest's tweet, I think Bieber got himself a new album! So those who are into "Bieber Fever", watch out for Seacrest's interview.
According to Ryan Seacrest's website, Bieber's got his first unplugged album - the "My Worlds Acoustic". I am pretty sure a lot of Bieber fans are looking forward to this new album.

Steven Silva and Diva Montelaba dating in Trinoma

Steven Silva of Starstruck |
That's how I describe showbiz folks we usually meet by accident.
Last Thursday, we went to Trinoma to watch the suspense flick Paranormal Activity 2. Our first stop, McDonalds for a dinner. I really love their cheeseburger!
After a luscious dinner, we bought our movie tickets. I was a little bit excited because it is my first time to watch a Paranormal movie. I haven't watched the first one.
Then, after we had our tickets, we went to Taters to buy their Superpop. I prefered the Texas Barbecue flavor for the popcorn.
While waiting on the counter, I noticed a familiar face. Raffy Tima ang Mariz Umali was next on the line. One thing that surprised me is, when they hold hands together! I never knew there's something between them! So cheesy! LOL! They are indeed "newsmakers".
Not just that. After Raffy and Mariz, another couple is queued on the Taters counter. I recognized the guy. I saw him on a billboard and he's one of the bachelors in Cosmo Bachelor Bash 2010. He was Steven Silva. I am not sure if the girl he's with was Diva Montelaba, a fellow Starstruck batchmate.
Everything went so normal. No tantrums from the crowd. It seems Raffy, Mariz, Steven, and Diva were "nobody"; ordinary people craving for a movie popcorn!
By the way, Steven Silva and Diva Montelaba are into a relationship? I saw them hold their hands like Raffy and Mariz.
Nevermind. At the end of the night, I just remembered one thing - I don't want to watch the first Paranormal flick anymore! LOL!

MYX VJs for Myx Mo 2010! VJ Chino on extreme right side. (Photo:candymag.com) |
I am sure that a lot of girls got crazy with Champ, the vocalist of the allegedly disbanded group Hale. Yesterday I met VJ Chino of MYX.
Chino Lui Pio is the younger brother of Champ. I met him yesterday and learned that he will be on 96.3 Easy Rock's Celebrity 360.
One day, like his elder brother, I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of girls got their head over heels because of this MYX VJ.
VJ Chino is one of the newest video jocks of MYX, though he had been into it for a couple of years. He narrated yesterday about his VJ experience and how he got into it. He gave hints that they have to tune in to 96.3 Easy Rock this coming Saturday morning for the full interview with DJ Samantha and Justin Taylor.
By the way, VJ Chino is inviting everyone to be part of the MYX Mo! Concert this coming November 18, 2010. Mo than 50 great bands will rock your night till dawn!
