REEL DEAL: Snow White and The Huntsman - Kristen Stewart SPOTLIGHT

Kristen Stewart Twilight’s turning into Snow as White

In Snow White and the Huntsman, a breathtaking new vision of the legendary tale begins. Kristen  Stewart  plays the only person in the land fairer than the evil Queen Ravenna (Charlize Theron).The casting of Ravenna’s nemesis was slightly trickier than finding her pursuer.  The filmmakers were searching for an actress who could capture both sides of the archetypal character: the innocence, naiveté and tenderness that Snow White demonstrates in the first half of our story, and the tough, physical warrior princess that she becomes in the second half.  They discovered a number of younger actresses who could play the first half of the movie brilliantly but had trouble convincing the team that they could carry off the tougher persona.  Likewise, when older actresses auditioned, they could well portray the battle-hardened soldier but were unconvincing as the recessive captive that the film’s early scenes demanded.  

Jean Garcia considers hosting ‘Personalan’ one of her favorite jobs

During a press visit to the set of GMA News TV’s public affairs program Personalan, host Jean Garcia told the members of the press that hosting the said advocacy program is one of her favorites.

“I look forward to it every week. Bagama’t once a week ko lang siya ginagawa, excited ako palagi,” the actress said.

Since the resignation of Ali Sotto as the program’s host last March, Jean has been hosting Personalan alternatively with singer-actress Jolina Magdangal-Escueta.

Sotto resigned from the show so she could spend more time with her diplomat husband and son who are based abroad.

Jean did not hesitate to accept the post vacated by Sotto when it was offered to her.

“Hindi ko tinanggap ang show na ito because of the ‘money;’ tinanggap ko ‘to because I wanted to do something really different, and gusto ko ‘yung konsepto ng show na nakakatulong sa ibang tao at naayos yung mga problema nila,” said Jean.

Search for the Best "Pride Rice" With Clara Ole Sinangag Fest

Rice has been the staple food of the Filipinos, and though we are used to have it plain, we love to do experimenting with it using different flavors and textures. And thus, SINANGAG or fried rice is formed. This is what the Clara Ole brand wants to highlight as something Filipinos can also be proud of as we are a food loving nation.

Clara Ole recently had the launch of its SINANGAG FEST which is a nationwide search for the best sinangag recipie in the land. This is also with the flavorful taste of Clara Ole's Ora Mix Mo Rice Mix that comes in many flavors like Tocino, Beef Steak, Adobo, Japanese Rice and many other flavors!

REEL DEAL: Kimmy Dora And The Temple Of Kiyeme SPOTLIGHT

The trailer of the sequel to the successful comedy movie Kimmy Dora has now been released! Kimmy and Dora (and Mikki) are back with hilarious antics and comedic scenes with Kimmy Dora And The Temple Of Kiyeme, by Star Cinema and Spring Films.

This brings the opposite-minded sisters to a scary quest involving a dark creature and secrets hidden in the Temple of Kiyeme. Also shows that they went abroad (most probably Korea) to pay respect to their ancestors. This also brings their leading men, Dingdong Dantes and Zanjoe Marudo.

The trailer is super funny and I am hoping the quality of comedy could match or exceed the first Kimmy Dora movie, for now enjoy the trailer!
