Considering her schedule this year, both as a singer and actress, makakabuti ngang huwag na munang umibig si Sarah Geronimo. For she will surely be doing a disfavor sa lalaking kanyang mamahalin.

After all, based on Karylle's account on why nag-breakup sila ni Dingdong Dantes samantalang for three years, naging maganda naman ang kanilang relasyon, malaking factor ang pagkakaroon ni Dingdong ng busy schedule, para sabihin na nating na-insecure si Karylle, which Karylle, of course, will deny.

Well, let her.

In any case, binanggit din niyang the presence of Marian Rivera could be a factor. But it wasn't a main factor.

As for a while, when Dingdong's tandem with Marian became popular, willing daw sana siya, she confessed to Star Studio, "to go along with for the sake of love. "
But much as she loved Dingdong then, she can only take so much.

Hence, her decision and Dingdong's decision to do what they both felt was the right thing to do.

No need to elaborate or say more.

Going back to Sarah, her schedules in 2009 include doing more records, movies, tv shows and endorsements.

It is true that last year, kumita daw (daw, ha) ng, more or less, P100M si Sarah?

Consider nga naman Sarah's achievements last year: two successful shows sa Araneta Coliseum, one platinum album. A blockbuster movie, A Special Love. And a series of concerts abroad.

Her lineup for 2009 starts with the release of her reunion movie with John Lloyd Cruz, You Changed My Life, in February. She has a concert tour in the U. S. , starting in March, with Billy Crawford, Charlie Green and Mark Bautista.

In May, she will go on a provincial tour naman covering five key cities.

Then, another concert at the Araneta Coliseum. To be followed with a movie with Piolo Pascual.

Gagawa din siya ng dalawang album. Bukod pa sa mga nakatakda niyang commercials.

Kaya, paano nga naman niya maisisingit ang pag-ibig?

On the contrary, tv at movie assignments ang hiling for this year ng mga malalapit sa isang aktres, na nakakaramdam na ng pagkalaos, kahit 'di pa naman siya gaanong napakatanda ano, in fact, still deserves a second look.

Kung sabagay, she has no one to blame sa nangyayari sa kanya at sa kanyang career, kung hindi siya rin.

Nagkaroon siya ng attitude noong mga panahong maituturing na sikat siya sa larangang kanyang pinasok mula sa pagkabata hanggang sa siya'y magdalaga. At kahit nang magkaasawa na siya at magka-anak.

Sa kanya, nagkatotoo ang kasabihan at nangyayari in any business (dahil 'di lang ito nagaganap sa showbiz): No one is indispensable. Magpabaya ka sa iyong trabaho. And there's someone who will take over; hindi man much better, tiyak much younger.

Sabi nga, always, sa huli ang pagsisisi.

But for humanitarian reason, wika nga, will some of our tv and movie producers give her some trabaho which she needs so much?

WHAT do tv newcasters Niña Corpus and Bernadette Sembrano have in common? They both happen to be two of the beautiful faces na napapanood natin sa TV dishing out news report.

Well, both Niña and Bernadette got married October last year. Niña to Vince Rodriguez of Studio 23. And Bernadette to Emilio Aguinaldo IV (or Orange to his friends), vice mayor ng Kawit, Cavite.

Both are not yet pregnant, too.

Unlike tv and actress Cheska Garcia, who married cager Douglas Kramer, also in October, who is now infanticipating.

Just asking: Natuloy din kaya ang pagpapakasal last year ng fellow tv newscaster nina Niña at Bernadette na si Cheryl Cosim to her non-showbiz and US-based boyfriend?
