DANIEL PADILLA TURNS SWELL –HEADED?

By | August 16, 2014

Unquestionably, Daniel Padilla’s rose to number one teen actor-singer in a short span of time have sparked talks that he turns swell-headed. Much more so with his recent starrer still draws long queues in Philippine theaters and abroad. Not to mention the spreading words that his Parking 5 Band has disbanded duo to his attitude problem.
Nevertheless, Daniel himself and the members of the Parking 5 group JC Padilla, Les Espinosa, Seth Gothico and Kats Kabe brash it off. As Daniel expounded, “Even as a child, lagi akong may air of humility. And coming from a showbiz clan, I know the after effects of arrogance instilled in a celebrity’s mind. I’ll never fall to it.  I believe that one should be humble if he is successful.”
“It’s not true too my acts led to the disbanding of Parking 5. Magpapahinga muna kami at ang iba busy sa studies nila, There’s no conflict whatsoever among us. We promise to come back soon in a better level.”
The other Parking 5 members chorused the same sentiment, adding that the gossip that one of them posted Daniel’s photo while smoking and drinking a seamy accusation for its baseless.
Kuya Germs Mediates between Aljur and GMA-7 bigwigs
At this writing, the misunderstanding that taps Aljur Abrenica and GMA-7 management has yet to be settled. This ignited upon Aljur’s admission to the media he wants to be released from the said network albeit his contract remains valid up to 2017. His disgruntled words against the said station reportedly irked its bigwigs.
However, got news that German Moreno has mediated to iron the kinks. Heard that he had a heart-to-heart talk with Aljur to re-assess the good things done to him by GMA-7 people. That his career has never been freeze but rather handed a series of lead roles.
“Huwag kang pasusulsol sa iba dahil puedeng mali sila at gusto lang sirain ang relasyon mo sa mga boss ng GMA-7. If I were you I’d apologize for what you said and done then ask forgiveness.” These were the exact words of Kuya Germs to Aljur.
Granting that Aljur would heed to Kuya Germs’ advice, in all probabilities GMA-7 top brasses and Aljur would have buried the hatchet, so to speak. That will be tantamount if Aljur still be visible in the Kapuso TV programs in the days to come.
Trivia:
Did you know that in the “60s Helen Gamboa was tagged the Singing Sweetheart of Philippine movies? To recount, Helen happened to be a music student of Sta. Isabel College when she won the Miss Press Photography of the Philippines title. Out of her beauty and singing talent, Helen easily stood up as a contract star of Larry Santiago outfit and eventually under the wings of Lea Productions She bannered films, opposite singing icon Eddie Mesa. Subsequently, Helen did blockbuster solo starrers in musical movies, notably Bogaloo, Bang-Shang-Alang and Obladi Oblada for Lea Productions. Her records were also top sellers.
This writer became attached to Helen for her closest writer-chum then the deceased Ched Gonzales was my officemate. She often tagged me along in going to Helen’s place at La Loma, QC. One time, Helen introduced us to her pre-teen niece (her sis’ daughter) to let us hear the latter’s marvelous belting prowess. That time, our group predicted the child would emerge a top songstress. Of course, she was none other than Sharon Cuneta.
Those days, not a few considered Helen the successor of Susan Roces and Amalia Fuentes, the movie queens then. Fate, however, prodded Helen to marry actor-song composer Tito Sotto and temporarily her showbiz career took a back exit. Yet significantly, Helen opted to appear once in a while as dramatic actress in heavy drama flicks. Topped by her version of the Flor Contemplacion story which ushered in her best actress trophy.
Once, a jubilant Helen called me up just to inform that Tito decided to run for senator, hoping for my support, so with other mutual friends. Of course, even if Tito didn’t know me personally, I campaigned for him for Helen’s sake, a dependable chum that she was.
Expectedly, Helen concentrated as a senator’s wife and a doting mom to their children, including singer-actress Ciara Sottto. In any case, once in a while Helen accepts TV drama assignments for the Kapamilya network. She belts songs as guest in charitable, social functions.

“Magkakaayos din kami ni Lovi dahil birthday wish ko nga ang makipagbati sa may galit o tampo sa akin. I know Lovi as a nice person. I’m pretty sure we will be chummy again to each other if I make the initiative.”

Spicy Items: With the romantic poses of Gerald Anderson and Maja Salvador in the Twitter Accounts while on vacation in South Africa, many alleged that the duo got secretly married and it was a honeymoon trip. Not bemused Gerald, Maja laughed it off as untrue. Jessie Mendiola and the others who joined them in the trip could attest to it.
Mutual chums of Carla Abellana and Tom Rodriguez have opined that the two appear to be going steady, as could be ascribed to their sweetness off and on the set of their TV series My Destiny. While Tom neither confirmed nor squashed it, Carla meaningfully grinned when queried.

Looks like with her impressive record at the Senate and the consistent high ratings in the list of top favorites to make it big come next presidential election, Sen. Grace Poe remains cool, reticent if she would run. Yet it seems she does not close the door for its possibility. Whatever, Grace’s mom Susan Roces will be a key to her final option. As Grace puts it, “my mom knows what’s best for me.”
Could it be true that a high profile personality in a much ballyhooed court case would soon have a change of heart? That the accused will admit the fault, ask forgiveness to the accuser? If ever, para maawa at patawarin ito sa kaso, so others averred.
