I said BOY no more! Coz he’s a man now… Well, can’t believe how time flew just like that. I guess this is beyond magic now as Dan’s dream to be an actor isn’t a dream anymore. After the hit success of the Potter films he did, he became very much in demand now in the biz. Again here he is, Mr. Daniel “boy no more” Radcliffe.

Both are definitely queer and stunning. Good looks and heck of talents on their shoulders. At first glance I was like, are they brothers? I thought both of ‘em are Latinos but nope. Though they’re both half Italians (Jai is half-Puerto Rican and Jay Manuel is half-African)
Jai Rodriguez

no dudes they’re not a boy band…
they’re the FAB 5
An actor, singer, and now a host, Jai Rodriguez is one of the FAB 5 of Queer Eye known as the culture vulture. Dude, you need to learn a thing or two from this Queer guy. Trust me, it would be of good use.


dragged OUT

This pretty guy doesn’t need any sort of intro. Ya’ll know the Mr. Style Innovator! I dunno but I had this crazy thought that Mr. Jay and Jai Rodriguez actually look alike. Agree or disagree it’s just my opinion. Though I think Mr. Jay is a bit more buff. Or is it because he’s the one who always flaunt his assets… Hmmm… Just thinking.

Tomorrow’s gonna be the day. The BIG day that is for Harry Potter fanatics out there! Holla! I posted before bout the grown up stars of the Harry Potter movie series. Let me share you some more of their pics plus some bits and tid bits bout them. Emma Watson would be a great start ‘coz this girl received a lot of viewing share in my blog. So here she is the Hermoine Granger a.k.a. Emma Watson…



Watson was born in Paris, France with English lawyers as her parents. The Harry Potter film was the main reason of all the fame she’s enjoying right now. There were rumors that she refused to sign up for the last two movies of the series but not to worry you guys because she already confirmed that she won’t do such a thing and she can’t let Hermione go just like that. She’s her hero.
Rupert Grint a.k.a. Ronald Weasley



From that Sorting Hat ceremony at Hogwarts, I knew he’s gonna be the funny but sensitive guy. Rupert did a great job portraying the role of the youngest Weasley boy. I just can’t wait to see him as the Gryffindor’s new Quidditch team captain. Yikes! Weasley is our king! Hehehe! Like Emma, he had a very limited experience in acting (some minor roles in school plays and local theater group). But hey, look at him now. Just look at what luck can bring…
Daniel Radcliffe a.k.a. “bet you know who” Harry Potter



Dan here is as we all know the big star in the movie. At the young age of 5, he expressed that he’s for acting. Born to perform that is. He had the role as the young David Copperfield in the televised version of the novel. His first film was The Tailor of Panama in a support role with no less than Pierce Brosnan. And the auditions for the covoted role as Harry Potter from J.K. Rowlings Harry Potter book series came and as they say, the rest was history. Then eventually the boy did mature and well, the play Equus proved it. The play, where he portrayed the role of a stable boy with obsession to horses, as controversial as it is, did receive positive reviews because of his depth in acting. Controversial because he had a nude scene there. Yeap, he’s a man now…

It was a battle of the blondes in the MUSIC industry between Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera. Both are incredibly huge among the youth and young at heart music lovers. They got the voice and moves to match. They were idolized all over the world and can still wow the crowd with their undeniable presence. Despite of the controveries that they’ve been through, they still receive an awsome support from their fans. The big question is, who’s fan are you?
Are you a Britney fanatic?


the famous Britney & Madonna “lip-lock”
From the sexified school uniform outfit to the H-O-T costumes she had on Toxic video, who could resist this pop diva who was once a member of the New Mickey Mouse Club. A Pop Icon that she is, this lady had been through a lot of issues. Her kiss with Madonna in a concert or something made waves over the news all over the world, why won’t it right? The image of being one of the “role model” rapidly went away since those things started to pop out into her career that I think she’s fully aware of. Jeez… One hell of an idol huh?! By the way, just a personal opinion, I think Paris Hilton sounded better than her. She’s better off as a dancer just like her ex husband. You know what, minus all those negative things about her, I love the fact that she’s hot and pretty.

Or are you the dirty Christina “going back to basics” Aguilera?


lady marmalade diva

gone dirty

as a classic pin up girl
Since her video with Mya, Lil’ Kim, and Pink, “Lady Marmalade”, I’ve been watching out for her. She’s Hottah than Hot! I love the way she change her image through the years of her career. Way much powerful voice than Ms. Spears. She can dance well if not better. She’s also, in a way, promoting girl power. One best example was her song “Can’t Hold Us Down” with Lil’ Kim. Love that song. But the best song for me that she had since the Lady Marmalade, is the song “Fighter”. Oooh I love the video because I get to see her in three or four different wild looks. I love her extreme looks there. Duh! Fashion addict here?! Now, from the dirty image she’s now definitely going back to basics, which I think was a reakky good move for her because again we get to hear a fresher yet more matured music from her. Anyways, vocally and move wise, I think she’s better. I don’t want to be bias but hey I’m just stating my opinion.

Do you remember what’s you’re favorite toy when you were a kid? In my case I’m more of the lego, claydo, blcoks and stuff. Something to be built. Maybe that’s why I’m taking up Architecture as my college degree. And I remember back then that I admire my cousin’s collection of robot toys. Guess what, they’re TRANSFORMERS!


mah fave autobot: BUMBLEBEE

Shia LeBouf as Sam “Spike” Witwicky

Megan Fox as Mikaela Banes
I was like COOL!!! Later on as I grew up I lost the interest with this stuff. That was until yesterday when my friends and I watched the super awsome movie the TRANSFORMERS! Never been so happy to see Optimus Prime and Megatron again. Freaky amazing! Spectcular effects and incredible sounds! And of course great sense of humor having there Shia Lebouf as the comic relief. He’s just like any ordinary teenager who’s like chasing up this hot girl and had his first car and stuff. Til he found out that that crapy old car that he bought is an AUTOBOT which eventually became his pal. Ok I don’t want to spoil it to those who haven’t watched it yet but all I can say is that if you’re such an action freak and fond with robots, this is highly recommended!
Trivia: Did you know that Megan Fox was featured in FHM magazine? She’s one of the 100 Sexiest Women of 2006. Now that is hot!

The music industry in the Philippines is slowly but surely ascends from the ashes. One of the main reasons, our very own Pinoy Bands. Hitting the local charts almost everyday now beating up the big foreign ones. Perhaps, us Filipinos are beginning to patronize our own. These guys are my faves… Check ‘em out will ya?! ROCK on!
Hale

They captivated the mass with their unique music. Unique in a good way huh! Something subtle, sometimes playful, sometimes it’s their own art music. And oh! The lead vocalist, Champ Lui Pio, sure is popular with the ladies because of that charming face. Naks! They’re simply amazing. I love their song “Waltz” and “Tollgate”. Nice music videos too.
Rivermaya

This guys know the word fame. Idolized among asian countries after 14 years of hardwork. They really are institutions now. Unfortunately, the lead vocalist Rico Blanco recently announced that he’s resigning from the band I think to persue a solo career. Though Rivermaya won’t be disbanded as a result. Their songs “214″ and “You’ll be Safe Here” are awsome!
Parokya ni Edgar

The funniest Pinoy band I know. Though their songs can be serious at times but they’re good at being silly. They made hits after hits and people just can’t get enough of them. Formed the same year as the Rivermaya in 1993. They may not look like the “rich” type but hey, they’re Atenistas. Their music evolved and matured over the years and they can be notorious on making you laugh. Chito Miranda, lead vocalist is the band’s bearer of silly moves.
Callalily

The band is pretty much new but they already made waves on local hit charts. F**k! I think they’re really, really awsome! I’m sure that this band would be legendary in the future. I just love their music (period). Nice vocals too by Kean Cipriano. These guys ROCK for me!!!
6CycleMind

At first I’m not that crazy bout this band. But then time passed by and I started to notice their songs and vocals too. Their latest song “Upside Down” which is a remake really made it well. They got a lot of product endorsements too!
Bamboo

I don’t care if the lead vocalist looks like Senator Chiz Escudero, this band ROCKS! I believe they’re one of the total performers. As in energy overflows when they perform. I love their latest song “Tatsulok”. Pretty controversial but it is awsome! These guys wanna make you proud of being Pinoy!

I’m not so sure if the world has the balance of people who got the good genes with those who don’t. Hmmm… I just wanna make a list of some of the gifted ones. I’m not in the mood to have them ranked so I’m leaving you the job.
Now here’s my list…
Enrique Iglesias

I’ve posted about him before. He’s the son of Julio Iglesias Jr. and supermodel Isabel Preysler. A hot Latino singer for a father and a Filipina mestiza supermodel mom… Jeez, what more can you ask for. Who won’t fall for this pop Latino singer who’s charms magnetized the ladies.
Adriana Francesca Lima

An exotic mix of ethnicity she is. Lima is part African, Indian, and Swiss. Now, she’s entitled as the “Most Voluptuous Virgin”. She’s such a face of innocence with the naughty side. Killer body, face to die for; her most deadliest ammo. Trully she’s a diva on the runway.
Jude Law

This Hollywood hunk has the appeal that can provoke a woman’s desire. I love his movie “A.I” as Joe and “Enemy at the Gates”. He’s one hell of a kisser too, having nominated in the Best Kiss category in the MTV Movie Awards with Cameron Diaz and Gwyneth Paltrow (in different movies ok).
Cameron Diaz

A Cuban American for a father and Native American, English, German for a mother. Her fatal weapons of choice, alienesque blue eyes and drop dead gorgeous body. She also have an ass kicking personality so watch out.
Ewan McGregor

Charm and good physique of this Scottish hunk is given. But his voice is very captivating. Starred in “Moulin Rouge” opposite Nicole Kidman and “Big Fish” as the Young Edward Bloom. Not to mention his performance in Star Wars series as Obi Wan Kenobi. This guy can really act!
Drew Barrymore

Classic American beauty, that’s what see of her. Born in a clan of American actors. Her beauty and personality are something to die for. She’s like the girl you would want to introduce to your parents. Oh I like her “EverAfter” movie and “Charlie’s Angels” too!

Boy bands had their spotlight. Now for the ladies! Guys, let’s check out the ladies shall we?
TLC

This R&B, hip hop and pop group of three gals namely Tionne “T-Boz” Watkins, Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes, and Crystal Jones. They were known originally by the name of 2nd Nature but then changed into TLC and Ms. Jones was replaced by Rozonda “Chilli” Thomas. This Grammy award winning group is also one of the best selling girl group worldwide. Oh do I love the song “Waterfalls”! I love the music video. I was a kid then and the effects was cool to me.
Spice Girls

Now this group I was in love with before. The concept of the formation of this group was phenomenal. Spice Girls literally spiced up the music industry. Formed in 1994 in London won a BRIT Award as the English all girls pop group. The group members were Mel C. the “Sporty Spice”, Geri Halliwell the “Ginger Spice”, Mel B. the “Scary Spice”, Victoria Adams (Beckham) the “Posh Spice”, and Emma Bunton the “Baby Spice”. Each girl lived up to their characters and promoted girl power. Their hit songs that I love are too many to mention. Well my fave ones are 2 become 1, Mama, Too Much, Stop, and Viva Forever.
Pussycat Dolls

I’ve posted about two Filipina blooded dolls in PCD I think yesterday? This group is simply HOT, HOT, HOT! They got the moves, the voice and the body. Their sexyness really overflows. Aside from that, I think they’re all modelicious! Uhuh?! Don’t cha agree?
Destiny’s Child

Another Grammy Award winning girl group and is the Best selling female group of all time. The members are Michelle Williams, Kelly Rowland, and Beyonce Knowles. The group was formed in Houston, Texas in 1990 when Beyonce, Kelly and an original member, La Tavia Roberson, were nine years old. Underwent several changes in the group’s name. Due to some misunderstandings there had been changed in the group members ’til the trio that we know now emerged. This three had some solo albums of their own. Beyonce was the one who’d became more popular of the three having hit dance songs of her own. But of course the group will always be there for their friendship won’t die forever.
The Supremes

This might be an old one but hey! They’re damn good! I love the song “Stop in the Name of Love”. Hehe! They’re singing talent is given. What I like the most bout this group is that they were sort of fashion icons back in the 60s and 70s. Florence Ballard, Mary Wilson, Diana Ross are the members of the group also known as Diana Ross & the Supremes. Love those afros! They were also the most successful African American female group in the 60s. Recently, a movie was made using their life story starring Beyonce, Jamie Foxx, Eddie Murphy, Jennifer Hudson, etc., which was entitled “Dream Girls“.

Known in Spain as “La Reina del Glamour” and “La Perla de Manila”. Mother of the Latin international pop star Enrique Iglesias and ex-wife of Julio Iglesias. She’s no other than Isabel Preysler Arrastias.

Isabel Preysler
In 1970, she was introduced to Julio whom at the time wasn’t famous yet and being a singer was still a dream. After 7 months they were engaged and got married. The marriage lasted for 7 years and produced three beautiful children, Chabeli, Julio Jr. and Enrique. Julio and Isabel became overnight superstars as a singer (Julio) and as a supermodel (Isabel). Isabel started her career as a journalist in 1978 in the Spanish magazine ¡Hola! and had Julio as her first interviewee. Isn’t that crazy? She got married again but a very short lived one with the Marquis de Grignon, Carlos Falco. She had Tamara as her second daughter with Falco. Then she had another marriage, this time with the Spanish finance minister, Miguel Boyer and had another daughter Ana.

Isabel as Porcelanosa endorser

Isabel through the years
She also hosted a Spanish lifestyle TV programme “Hoy”. Then had many other endorsements like for Ferrero Rocher, Suarez Jewelry, Porcelanosa, etc. She recently launched her own website for the request of her biggest fan, her son Enrique. Why won’t he be a fan? After all, her mother is a part of his beautiful genes.
