NAKU, Ian F. , if we had the special privilege to hand out two special awards to two special people in showbiz, it would be for Robin and Rustom Padilla's mom, Eva Cariño (Best Mom for all Seasons) and Lorna Tolentino (mega-superstar award as Best Wife).

No need to elaborate why, Ian F. , 'di ba?

HOW nice naman na bati na sina Piolo Pascual at Ryan Agoncillo. Ganundin sina Cristine Reyes at Carlene Aguilar.

Naganap ang diumano'y pagbabati nina Piolo at Ryan sa lamay ng ama ni Maja Salvador, dating action star na si Ross Rival (real name: Rosauro Salvador), na binawian ng buhay kamakailan.

Sina Cristine at Carlene ay nagkabati naman, diumano courtesy of Cristy Fermin and Cristine's lawyer.

It looks like local showbiz will have a truly and happy Christmas this year (Ang kulang na lang sina Piolo, Sam Milby at Lolit Solis. - IFF).

NAKATUTUWA naman itong si Ethel Booba. Si Kuya pala ang tunay na dahilan kung bakit siya nag-voluntary exit sa Pinoy Big Brother Celebrity Edition 2 (PBBC2).

Hindi pala niya type ang pinagagawa sa kanilang tasks ni Big Brother na pawang sobrang physical nga naman. Napapansin din namin ito bilang regular viewer ng PBBCE2.

Teka nga, matanong si Kuya: Naging sadista ka na ba?

Sabi pa ni Ethel kay Boy Abunda when she guested in The Buzz last Sunday: "Baka manalo man ako, pambayad ko lang uli sa pagpaparetoke. "

At least, honest si Ethel na bunga ng 'salamat po, doctor' ang kung anumang pagbabagong nakikita sa kanyang physical attributes.

IS it true that at one time, Jennylyn Mercado also considered the idea of joining ABS-CBN?

Yes, just like the other talents of her manager na si Becky Aguila, namely Angel Locsin, Valerie Concepcion and child star Ella Cruz.

Pinigilan lang daw siya ng boyfriend niyang si Patrick Garcia. Payo raw ni Patrick kay Jen, "Don't leave GMA-7. "

Child actor pa lamang si Patrick, contract star na siya ng ABS-CBN. Kung ilang pelikula rin ang ginawa niya sa Star Cinema, one of which even won him an award.

Naging Kapuso lang si Patrick nang maging alaga ng talent manager na si Arnold Vegafria.

IILAN lang ang Metro Manila mayors na malapit sa mga taga-showbiz.

Isa na rito si Toby Tiangco, pinagpipitaganang mayor ng Navotas City.

Hindi nakapagtataka kung nakikita si Mayor Toby sa mga showbiz party at iba pang showbiz happening. At kung he seems most at home with showbiz people, it is because muntik-muntikan na siyang maging isa sa kanila.

Panahon iyon nina Gabby Concepcion at Richard Gomez sa Regal Films when the late director, Joey Gosiengfiao, offered Mayor Toby to become a Regal Baby.

It was his mom who discouraged him from joining showbiz. Tapusin niya raw ang kanyang pag-aaral.

Nangangahulugan ba itong showbiz's loss is politics' gain?

Mayor Toby is the best thing that happened to Navotas, which is now a city. Sayang nga at third term na niya, kaya it's his last term as mayor of the city he has loved so much.

His constituents celebrated with him when Mayor Toby recently turned 40 years old.

His special guest was former President Joseph "Erap" Estrada.
