EVENTOLOGY: FILA Polo Cup with Fila Skeletoes

SKELE-TOES #WHATTHEHECKISTHAT CAMPAIGN LAUNCH 

AT THE 2012 FILA POLO CUP

All eyes are traditionally fixed on the action when the “sport of kings” is played, but at this year’s edition of the Fila Polo Cup, another feature may be stealing a big chunk of that attention from the field.  Fila will be launching a head-scratchingly unique campaign at the event where fans of the revolutionary Skele-Toes four-toed shoes could stand to win a starring role in a travel & lifestyle documentary.  Just to turn a few extra heads, Skele-Toes will also be on the feet of endorsers and event hosts Tim Yap, Borgy Manotoc, Georgina Wilson, and  Abs Abdelkader.

Since 2003, the Cup has been one of the brightest highlights of the local sports calendar, not just for the action but also for the glitz and glamour.  The 2012 Fila Polo Cup is set to outshine the rest once again with a fun-filled roster - aside from the Skele-Toes #whattheheckisthat campaign launch, there will be performances by the band Articulo, a special Dexter Santos choreographed dance number with styling by Leeroy New, installation art by Denis Lagdameo, and JM Rodriguez will be singing the National Anthem.  Of course, FILA’s first couple Cris and Butch Albert will be gracing the occasion, along with FILA  VP of Advertising Ana Abad Santos.  Butch will again lead his team for the Low Goal Game while Tessa Prieto-Valdes and Cris Albert will do the Ceremonial Toss for the High Goal Game.  Over-all event director is Rem Zamora.

The honorable JunJun Binay, Mayor of Makati,  and Dr. Elenita Binay, wife of Vice President Jojo Binay, will also be gracing the occasion.

“What the heck is that?”

  

This isn’t a question usually heard in Fila-hosted parties, certainly not in the Fila Polo Cup, but the company is anticipating a few raised eyebrows, a bit of head-scratching, and a lot of #whattheheckisthat comments from the crowd with the launch of the unique Skele-Toes campaign.

REEL DEAL: The Descendants - George Clooney SPOTLIGHT

AWARD-WINNING FILM “THE DESCENDANTS” INTROS CLOONEY ON PARENTING

Much recognized for his global humanitarian efforts as he is for his accomplishments in the entertainment industry, George Clooney delves into untapped psyche as he takes on parenting in “The Descendants” with naturally gifted young actresses Shailene Woodley and Amara Miller.  Directed by Alexander Payne best known for his work in “Sideways,” “The Descendants” is a man’s tumultuous awakening that might be awkward, comical and sometimes absurd, but nevertheless changes his concept of love, fatherhood and what it truly takes to be a man.

George Clooney stars as Matt King, a privileged Honolulu attorney from a landowning family who is compelled to reevaluate his marriage and life, while his wife lies comatose in a hospital bed following a boating accident. His mischievous daughters don’t trust him, his imperiled wife has been cheating on him and his broke cousins see him and the land trust he controls as a piggy bank.  To add insult to injury, he’s surrounded by a lush, fertile, awe-inspiring landscape that defies his inner turmoil.

REEL DEAL: The Descendants REVIEW

Its refreshing to see movies less the fast paced action, magic and sci-fi stories from Hollywood. Breaking back to reality of family and love makes great stories and can move people into tears. This is what The Descendants will share to movie goers.

In this film George Clooney plays a father for the first time in his career. Being a father to two daughters with different personalities and also a husband to his wife who he needs to take care after a horrible accident.

Also placed on placed on his shoulders is a responsibility of his family's inheritance that will make a big impact in the islands of Hawaii. One can also realize that living in a tropical state does not mean you live in paradise. Problems there are not less than others, and the pain and suffering is also not less than another place.

With an interesting array of characters and superb portrayal of emotions and 'language', I would also consider to read the novel from which the movie is based from. Interestingly the movie received awards including two Golden Globe Awards.

MUSIC LYF: Thank You Withney Houston

I just woke up with a bad  news that music icon Whitney Houston was found dead in a Beverly Hills Hotel. The source of her death is still unknown but definitely it shook the music world and her fans. I too was indeed sad on her passing as I loved her songs like I Will Always Love You, When You Believe, I Wanna Dance WIth Somebody, and my favorite When You Believe.


Indeed we were touched by her songs in one way or the other, this what makes a artists leave their permanence which we will greatly remember even if they do have issues on their own. Whitney has faced a downfall with her lifestyle and unfortunately with her return to the music scene has turned into a sad tragedy.
