'The Voice of the Philippines' Season 2 Premiere Soars High in Ratings

Viewers across urban and rural areas in the country tuned in to the return of “The Voice of the Philippines” as they watched the first batch of new hopefuls sing to try to turn the chairs of coaches Apl de Ap, Sarah Geronimo, Bamboo, and Lea Salonga.
According to data from Kantar Media, the singing-reality show’s pilot episode last Sunday (October 26) recorded a national TV rating of 28.3%, or nine points higher than its rival program “Kapuso Mo, Jessica Soho” (17.2%).

Posts about the artists and the coaches also flooded on social networking site Twitter, with the official hashtag #TheVoicePHisBack topping the list of the trending topics in the Philippines and worldwide.

So far, each coach has already enlisted one artist on their respective teams. Balladeer Tammy Pavino chose coach Lea, while police officer Jannet Cadayona officially got in the competition when coach Apl turned around for her. But what really brought the house down and had the coaches losing their minds were the performances of the season’s first four-chair turner and rocker Tanya Diaz, who picked coach Bamboo, and another four-chair turner and the ‘reggae tatay of Bacolod’ Kokoi Baldo, who joined Team Sarah.

Also stealing the scene was coach Bamboo look-alike Bryan Babor, who surprised the judges with his singing voice that sounded exactly like his idol’s. Even though he didn’t make it past the blind auditions, Bryan got his wish to have a duet with coach Bamboo.

Don’t miss the continuation of the blind auditions in the top-rating and Twitter-trending “The Voice of the Philippines” Season 2 next Sunday (Nov 2), 8:30 PM on ABS-CBN.

Ellen Adarna has broken her silence on the alleged video she shared with her former flame that is now reportedly going viral.

John Lloyd Cruz Has a Secret Teenage Daughter Studying in UPLB?

A rumor is currently spreading online, Box Office King John Lloyd Cruz has a secret teenage daughter and allegedly studying University of the Philippines Los Banos campus (UPLB). The rumored daughter is slowly providing clues to her alleged father's identity via Facebook posts.

Is John Lloyd Cruz fathering a teenage daughter?

In a Facebook page called "The Elbi Files" catering to UPLB students, three separate posts from an anonymous but seemingly one person was claiming that she's a daughter of a kapamilya star. In her first confession dated December 8, 2013, she wrote using "anakngtagatabingilog" as a pseudonym.

In 1999 to 2003, John Lloyd was one of the male stars on ABS-CBNS's Sunday teen-oriented show Tabing Ilog.

Just last month, Sept. 26, the girl made a pronouncement why she was still kept hidden, alluding to Phoemela Baranda who also hid her teenage daughter (PBB housemate Nichole) as her niece. This time, it was written by "AnakngEyebags".

The word eyebags was used, something that John Lloyd has been teased about in the past.

Earlier this month, John Lloyd was in Los Angeles recently for the "ASAP Live in LA" show. On October 11, the girl posted another confession using "KantoGirlLiveinLA". The girl allegedly was with the team in LA, but instead of enjoying the moment, she felt bad because she was introduced as a niece.
John Lloyd is one of the members of 'Kanto Boys' on ASAP with Luis Manzano, Billy Crawford, and Vhong Navarro.
If the rumored daughter of John Lloyd is 16 then he could only be 15-year old when he become a father. John Lloyd Cruz is only 31 years old, BTW. What do you think?

We're used to seeing the effects of a decent make up artist.

Oh come on, you don't think Kim Kardashian's face is perfectly contoured like that when she wakes up in the morning, do you?

But even we've never seen make up done quite like this.

"Is it J-Law?" we hear you cry. "Is it Mariah?"

No, ladies and gentlemen. This is Paolo Ballesteros - a Filipino actor who uses make-up, wigs and coloured contact lenses to painstakingly recreate famous features.

Paolo, 31, can spend several hours creating the uncanny likenesses between himself and his idols.

His transformations have included Jennifer Lawrence, Katy Perry, Rihanna and Princess Diana, but he says he prefers Angelina Jolie and Mariah Carey.

"Angelina is very easy to do. I put big lips and I look like her already," he says. "But my favourite is Mariah Carey."

Entertainment: Controversial photos of Ellen Adarna from magazine shoot leak online

MANILA, Philippines - A local magazine 'Esquire Philippines' has condemned the leaked nude photos of sexy actress and model Ellen Adarna as a "blatant violation of her privacy" and has asked the public to refrain from spreading it online.

Some of the alleged leaked nude photos of Ellen were published on a popular gossip blog site on Wednesday, September 17.

“Yesterday I received good and bad news. Today will be a f***king good day. Moving on.” This is how Ellen Adarna greeted the news on her Instagram account on Wednesday that her nude photographs from a photo shoot with men's magazine Esquire Philippines were leaked online.

The ABS-CBN actress appeared partly nude on the cover on the April issue of Esquire Philippines.
Here is the Esquire Philippines' complete statement:

“Esquire Philippines and Summit Media condemn the unauthorized distribution of photographs of Ellen Adarna that were originally taken from a shoot the magazine had staged for its April 2014 edition. She had agreed to be featured in Esquire Philippines with the understanding that no nude photographs taken of her then would be published or disseminated. The recent circulation of such sensitive photos without her (or our) knowledge or consent is in blatant violation of her privacy, and her right to dignity. We share her outrage; we are deeply angry; we will not hesitate to take the appropriate legal action.

“The images in question, staged with photographer Jake Versoza, were never used in the magazine itself, and in most cases, were never even in the possession of the magazine. The images we did use from the shoot were treated to make sure any sensitive areas were artfully covered or obscured, as had been the agreement.”

“It is apparent as well to Esquire magazine that its own rights, as well as that of photographer Jake Versoza, have been infringed. We will take the proper measured action to protect its rights. Most importantly, we urge all not to participate in the dissemination of sensitive images that were not intended for public by the one person whose rights and dignity above all else’s should be respected at this time.”
