MANILA, Philippines?Sam Milby brushes off the rumor that the new girl in his life is a Kapamilya talent whose initials are MM. ?Not true,? says Sam. Perhaps he?s not ready to find someone who would take Anne Curtis? place yet.
Teasing Gabby
GABBY Concepcion and his entire clan had a grand pictorial recently. ?My mom wanted us to have new family portraits na kumpleto lahat ng bagong apo,? Gabs explained. I teased him. ?When will you have a pictorial naman with Sharon?? He just flashed his killer smile. If it?s meant to happen, it will.
No comment
JEAN Garcia would rather not comment about her rumored breakup with Polo Ravales. In the first place, they never admitted they were on.
Celebs these days love to say, ?What you see is what you get,? when asked about their closeness to each other. It has become the new show biz answer, replacing ?Friends lang kami.? (In)famous last words.
Making peace
KRISTINE Hermosa and I had a little tiff when I exposed her director?s complaints about her. But we?ve finally made peace.
It was my immortal friend Richie Santos who made it happen. Tin is the new image model of Cinderella (which Richie?s family owns).
Tin and I bumped into each other at the Cinderella Designer?s Competition ?08 Finals Night at Manila Pen. After a few awkward moments, we were chatting like old friends.
Joey de Leon and Willie Revillame, John Lapus and Jobert Sucaldito have buried the hatchet, too. Hopefully, Gabby Concepcion and Rose Flaminiano, Cristy Fermin and Nadia Montenegro will follow suit. Show biz is such a small world. As my mom used to say: ?The people you meet on your way up are the same people you will see on your way down.?
Stamp of approval
GMA 7 and ABS-CBN brought new life to multiawarded ?Komiks King? Carlo J. Caparas? creations ?Gagambino? and ?Pieta,? respectively. ?Gagambino? topped the ratings on its premiere telecast. ?Pieta,? which just started airing yesterday, will surely hit the mark, too.
As a fitting tribute to him, six variations of stamps with his face and his superheroes will be launched on Nov. 10. The signing of Philippine Postal officials will be held on Nov. 29. Signed, sealed (with Tita Donna Villa?s kiss) and Carlo will always deliver. He?s got the komiks lovers? stamp of approval.
Baron busy dating
?I WANT to marry a woman who has the qualities of my mom?smart, protective, knows how to run the house and handle money,? says Baron Geisler. ?Haven?t found her yet so I?m busy dating.?
He stars in ?Pieta? (after ?Wowowee?), about a mother?s unconditional love, with Ryan Agoncillo and Cherie Gil. Ryan sheds his boy-next-door image and Cherie will be deglamorized for a change. Heavy Mama drama!
