JOKE lang po ito. Paunang babala na, ha?

Anak din ba ni Gabby Concepcion sina Valerie at Sam?

Tanong uli: Panganay ba sina Valerie at Sam among their siblings?

Kasi, it's common knowledge na pawang mga panganay (na inaamin ni Gabby) ang mga anak ng comebacking actor, na nagkataong pawang babae rin.

Their names? KC (kay Sharon Cuneta, the megastar), Gaby (with Grace Ibuna) and Chloe (with Jenny Syquia).

Wow, kung nagkataon palang anak nga ni Gabby si Valerie, he would have been a lolo na to her three year-old daughter, Fiona.

Valerie is, of course, a Wowowee co-host. She starred with Vhong Navarro and Makisig Morales in Supah Papalicious.

Si Sam naman was the champ in the Big Division of the Little Big Star singing contest, aired on ABS-CBN nearly two years ago.

ANGGE (Cornelia Lee in real life) is leaving today with daughters Imelda and Isabela on a Carribean cruise. They will be away for 12 days.

"Treat ko ito sa daughters ko," ani Angge. "Yes, for the good grades they got in school. "

Imelda has just a year to go before she finishes Nursing at the Far East University. Si Isabela naman, kaga-graduate lang from elementary at the Montessori in Greenhills.

Angge works as a talent coordinator at ABS-CBN. Among the programs under her care are Sharon and That's My Doc.

Actually, she is also a talent manager, a member of the Professional Artists Managers, Inc. (PAMI). And among her wards are Bayani Agbayani, Lotlot de Leon, Sylvia Sanchez, Smokey Manaloto and Beth Manlongat.

Angge used to be a fan of Susan Roces (she actually still is, she insists) and the late Ricky Belmonte.

Nag-aartista rin si Angge dati. Her life was featured in Maalaala Mo Kaya, which had Manilyn Reynes in her character.

Belated happy Mother's Day, Angge.

ALSO currently on a cruise is Mother Lily Monteverde.

Patungo namang Alaska ang cruise na kanyang sinamahan with eldest daughter, Meme, and the latter's husband, Stephen.

Mother Lily also went on a tour of Europe with daughter Roselle.

The Regal producer, meanwhile, is excited about the movie, My Monster Mom, as this is her first time to see Annabelle Rama on the big screen, she said.

"Bow kasi ako sa pagiging ina ng lokang 'yan," Mother Lily remarked sincerely. "Tingnan mo kasi lahat ng kanyang mga anak, matitino at masisipag. "

In My Monster Mom, directed by Joey Reyes, Annabelle co-stars with real-life daughter, Ruffa. Hubby Eddie Gutierrez also plays her husband in the film.

Ang anak naman nilang si Richard ang gumaganap na young Eddie while the young Annabelle is played by Rhian Ramos.
