Bea Binene Celebates Her Birthday With GMA Kapuso Foundation

Teen star Bea Binene celebrated her 15th birthday with something special and meaningful with kids from the GMA Kapuso Foundation which some of them have illness such as cancer, genetic defects etc. However the celebration was filled with smiles and hope on their faces despite their inconvenient illness which actually gave happiness to them and their families. It was something that you don't see young teen popstars do on their birthday and Bea is very happy to spend this day with a meaningful cause. It also something like an early Christmas for the kids as they also mingled with Jollibee and also given some tokens that will make this day unforgettable.

Bea is also thankful with all the success and projects she is given by the Kapuso network. With shows like Luna Blanca and the ongoing series Cielo de Angelina are some of her shows that made her busy this year. She also launched her first album "HEY IT'S ME BEA" under Polyeast Records and recently got its Gold record award. She also a favorite teen endorser with clothing brands like BUM as one of their brand ambassadors. 

She said that spending her birthday with these children makes her day more special than just celebrating it with family and friends. She is also an active supporter for foundations like Haribon Foundation and GMA Kapuso Foundation in giving back to nature and society. I am impressed with her involvement with this advocacy at a young age. She will also participate in the celebrity ukay-ukay by Regine and Ogie Alcasid with some of her clothes used in Party Pilipinas. We do wish Bea a very happy birthday and more projects and blessings so she can reach out to more people.

REEL DEAL: Chernobyl Diaries REVIEW

Even after 25 years after the ill-fated Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant Fallout, there are still a lot of things that haunt the imagination of the many people. The Ukrainian Government allowed people to visit the town near Chernobyl a few years ago as radiation levels have gone down. This gave way to come up with a great thriller story about the deserted area.

"Chernobyl Diaries" is an original story from Oren Peli, who first terrified audiences with his groundbreaking thriller, "Paranormal Activity." The film follows a group of six young tourists who, looking to go off the beaten path, hire an "extreme tour" guide. Ignoring warnings, he takes them into the city of Pripyat, the former home to the workers of the Chernobyl nuclear reactor, but a deserted town since the disaster more than 25 years ago. After a brief exploration of the abandoned city, however, the group soon finds themselves stranded, only to discover that they are not alone...

Sponge Cola District this 11/09/12

Diamond Recording Band Sponge Cola is all set to disprove naysayers’ claim that the local music industry is dead, by launching their latest release District this November 9, 7 p.m., at the Eastwood Central Plaza.

The said EP features collaborations between Sponge Cola and some of the respected names in the industry – Chito Miranda of Parokya Ni Edgar and Los Magno in the hit single XGF, which topped the www.mymusicstore.com charts for six weeks, and Queen of Bossa Nova Sitti.

When asked why it was called District, Yael replied, “District represents a fraction of a bigger whole, which is like the EP compared to a full-length album. This is a short burst, a sprint rather than a long run. This is also our way of shaking things up.”
