Ellen Adarna, Gwen Zamora and Andi Manzano

GMA-7 introduces three fresh and lovely faces to watch for in the television and movie scene — new Belo beauty Gwen Zamora, Cebuana covergirl and Internet celebrity Ellen Adarna, and FM radio’s prettiest Andi Manzano.

MEET THE NEW FAYE. Born and raised in Australia, 19-year-old Gwen Zamora has all the makings of a promising celebrity. With her talent and exquisite mestiza features, she easily caught the eye of major players in both showbiz and the beauty industry. Film producer, actor and host Bossing Vic Sotto personally chose Gwen to be the new “Faye” in his latest Enteng Kabisote movie, while celebrity doctor Vicky Belo enlisted her to be the new face of Belo Essentials adding to her long list of product endorsements including Jollibee, Bingo Sandwich and Chef Philippe.

This multi-lingual beauty has traveled to different parts of the world to study acting (Stanislavski method in Australia and Clowning at Commedia Dell’ Arte in Singapore) and different forms of dancing (Flamenco, Ballet, Balinese and Jazz). A filmmaking student at the College of St. Benilde, Gwen will soon be making her debut in Party Pilipinas and Bubble Gang, and will also be part of a primetime Kapuso program.

FROM CYBERSPACE TO SHOWBIZ. Before gracing the covers of Candy on July 2005 and September 2008 and Uno Magazine on March and September 2008, young Cebuana socialite Ellen Adarna has been making a name for herself in cyberspace for quite a while. Ellen, who is of Spanish, Filipino, and Chinese descent, became famous in social networking sites like Friendster, MySpace, and Facebook, where hundreds of fake “Ellen Adarna” accounts abound.

Because of her internet fame, she landed herself a feature in Kapuso Mo Jessica Soho. Ellen is now ready to take her popularity to the next level as she dabbles in hosting and acting in Kapuso shows such as Bubble Gang and Party Pilipinas. Like Gwen, she will also be part of Vic Sotto’s next movie.

ANDI9 JOINS MAINSTREAM TV. Completing the list of GMA-7′s new breed of female talents is MTV VJ, radio jock, and print and TV commercial model Andi Manzano, more popularly known as “Andi9.”

The 23-year-old fresh-faced beauty was first known as a radio jock for Magic 89.9 and a court-side reporter for FEU Tamaraws before becoming a VJ for MTV Philippines. She is the second cousin of Edu Manzano and the niece of Gary Valenciano. Andi9 is finally ready to join mainstream television and is gearing up for bigger things in her blossoming career.

Gwen, Ellen and Andi9 will be formally welcomed into GMA-7′s stable of talents in Party Pilipinas on August 22.

Survivor Philippines Celebrity Showdown

Sunday, August 15th, 2010

Survivor Philippines Celebrity Showdown will air its pilot episode this August on GMA-7. This is the followup to the two previous editions of the reality show, which was shot in Koh Tarutao in Thailand during the first season and in Palau for the second season.
An intriguing and exciting mix of 18 celebrity castaways brave harsh living conditions, nature’s deadliest predators, and face their fears in their bid to be the first celebrity sole survivor. Meet Season 3′s castaways in the toughest Survivor Philippines edition yet.

Ahron Villena - Will this young actor’s boy next door good looks and charm work to his advantage? How long will he be able to keep himself in the game? “Ang Bolero” ng isla… will he be booted out as soon as things get serious?

Aira Bermudez - The “Dancing Warrior” – this feisty Sexbomb dancer is sure to bring added spice to life in the island. Will her moves bring her closer to the three million prize, or will her performance be cut short before this season’s climactic ending?

Akihiro Sato – The Brapanese hunk with a very Pinoy heart is no doubt one of the hottest celebs in the country.  “Mr. Nice Guy” in camp – will his smile waver as life in the island becomes more than unbearable?

Aubrey Miles - Sexy actress… hot mama… “Ang Pasimuno” – her sweet exterior yet tough attitude makes this castaway a force to reckon with. Will she use her beauty or brains to stay in the game?

Buhawi “Buwi” Meneses – The bassist of popular band Parokya ni Edgar, he is the idol of the youth and hero of his child. With the heart of a true “Tribe Leader” – will he step up to the plate or back down from the fight?

Elma Muros -  A be-medaled athlete who finds herself competing in unfamiliar ground. This season's “Strong Mama” – will she be a threat to be reckoned with or will she be this game's underdog?

Ervic Vijandre -  A “Power Player” in the hard court, will his moves steer him to victory or bring him crashing down to the ground?

Doc Ferds Recio – Born to Be Wild’s resident vet, Doc Ferds Recio, seems to be at an advantage in this game. Considered “The Boss” in the outdoors, this castaway is not one to back down from a challenge.

Ian Batherson – This Starstruck V finalist has been known to be a tad too straightforward, sometimes tactless, a little bratty and so much of a naughty boy. Will this “Pilyong Amboy” get his way in the island?

Jon Hall – Ang “Siga ng Isla” – hot headed model and hunky boyfriend of a popular young actress. Will he be able to bully his way through the toughest Survivor Philippines yet?

Karen delos Reyes – This generation’s “Taray Queen”, her flair for words and animated reactions will sure to keep castaways on their toes. Will she find new friends in the island or add to her growing list of foes?

Michelle Madrigal – Sometimes the villain, at times the heroine, “The Outcast” of this game – many wonder if she has the strength of mind and body to survive such grueling conditions.

Mico Aytona - One of the young ones in the line-up, this “Bibong Bunso” has made his mark as the teenage boy everyone loves to love. Charming, witty, and oh so friendly, will his image stand the tests of the island?

Moi Marcampo – This “Yayang Palaban,” who was part of the hit movie Kimmy Dora, has taken her offcam work as a real-life personal assistant to the stars to a whole new level. Will she stand her ground against the stars she more often bows down to, or will she be again relegated to the background when the cameras start rolling?

Mykah Flores - From dakilang extra to “Bidang Extra” — Bubble Gang’s Mykah Flores now has a chance to outshine her co-stars in a game where survival is key to fame and fortune.

Princess Snell – She’s sugar and spice and everything nice… or is she? Known to be “Pasaway” will she get support from her purported boyfriend while in the island?

Solenn Heussaff – She’s a model, a socialite, an artist and entrepreneur… and she’s also super hot. “Ang Diwata ng Isla”– does she have what it takes to add another dimension to her enigmatic personality?

Pretty Trisza - This stand up comedian is a favorite at comedy bars. But will her “Cheerleader” enthusiasm sit well with the seriousness of purpose in the island?

36 Days, 18 Castaways, all vying for the title of being the first celebrity sole survivor. Who will get the job done? Who will come undone? Who will outwit, outplay, outlast, and outshine on primetime?

Get ready for a tough and intriguing season in Survivor Philippines Celebrity Showdown this August on GMA-7.

Film: Ang Laro ng Buhay ni Juan
By: Joselito Altarejos

“Ang Laro ng Buhay ni Juan” explores two hours in the life of Juan Reyes, known to others as Erwin. Juan is a 25 year old Masbate native who just found his way to Manila three years ago. Erwin has tried his hand at many odd jobs and now works as a live-sex performer at an underground gay bar but has decided to leave Manila for good.

On the day of his departure, he will take us with him as he makes life decisions—big and small. The most important one of all is leaving the impoverished place which he called home for a year, capping it with his emotional goodbyes with his lover, Noel. And, how a raid by the authorities marred his last performance in an underground bar called Inner Sanctum which changed his resolve.

It features Ray An Dulay as Juan, Nico Antonio as Noel (Juan’s lover) and the daring newcomer Ace Ricafort as one of the live show performers called Tupada Boys together with able actors like 2008 Cinemanila’s Asian Best Actress Angeli Bayani, Perry Escano and Richard Quan.
