Anne Curtis strongly denied rumors that she engaged in a kissing scene with an unknown guy inside a bar in Makati City. How could it be, says Anne, when she doesn’t have a boyfriend and she has a name to protect.

“Hello, nagka-bluetooth scandal na nga ako before, di ba? Tapos heto na naman? Hindi ko nga alam kung sino ang sinasabi nila kasi usually ang mga kasama ko ay ‘yung mga kasama ko sa Hong Kong, all girls kami, except for Mon (Raymond Gutierez),” Anne stressed.

It didn’t take place, Anne said during her birthday presscon at Steaks Plus restaurant.

“Ano ba, ngayon ko lang nai-enjoy ang pagiging single lady ko so tantantan n’yo na ako… but open ako sa possibility na puweding maging kami pa rin ni Sam (Milby) someday.”

Anne Curtis is giving herself a break and will spend the entire month of May in Europe as a birthday gift and she hopes that Veronique del Rosario-Corpus, her manager, will allow her to do so.

A lot of fans and viewers were surprised in the kissing scene of Kim Chiu with Jake Cuenca in the TV series “Tayong Dalawa” but Kim said she has to make herself used to mature roles because she can’t forever be a teenybopper.

“Para hindi naman masanay yung mga sa akin na lagi akong pa-tweetums, na may bawal-bawal. Kaya ‘ayun, pina-mature nila nang kaunti yung role ko. Pero kaunti lang naman, haggang dun lang”.

Kim admitted she was nervous when she did the kissing scene with Jake Cuenca but she revealed that their lips didn’t touch hard. She said she doesn’t know if she will have a kissing scene with Gerard Anderson in the TV series.

Judy Ann Santos will be doing a movie with Ogie Alcasid, which means she is not busy preparing for her supposed wedding with Ryan Agoncillo. Or are the two really planning for a wedding?

While Juday is busy with her new movie, Ryan also has his hands full with Pieta, which is extended until April. And based on Mommy Carol Santos’ statement, she has not discussed with her future son-in-law the details of the supposed wedding.

Reports have it that Juday and Ryan are busy with their future house instead of dealing with the details of their wedding.

Princess Revilla was teary-eyed when she talked to the media regarding the recent dismissal of the child abuse case filed against her by her former house helper Renalyn Arota.

Princess could not contain her emotions saying she waited so long for the resolution of the case because some media reports painted her as a bad woman who abused her teenage maid.

The Pasig City prosecutor’s office has dismissed the child abuse charges filed against Princess, a sister of administration Sen. Bong Revilla by a housemaid.

In a 12-page decision, Prosecutor 1 Michael Robles claimed that the defenses of Revilla (Rebecca Bautista Ocampo in real life) were ample and convincingly corroborated while the complainant’s evidence were not sufficient to directly prove the former actress’ probable guilt.

“The complainant has also failed to sufficiently establish that she was subjected to the worst form of child labor, constituting a liability under R.A. 9231 on the part of the respondent. Mere allegations is not sufficient evidence,” said Robles in his decision.

In her complaint, the 17-year-old housemaid claimed she escaped from the Revilla’s residence in Pasig City in June last year after she was beaten up   by the former actress for breaking a porcelain wash basin. She said Revilla was also not paying her salary.

The housemaid submitted a medical certificate to support her complaint.

The Court of Appeals (CA) has upheld the ruling of a Makati court that voided the marriage of actress Kristine Hermosa and actor Diether Ocampo.

It was Kristine who initiated the annulment. Diether, on the other hand, refused to file any responsive pleadings to Kristine’s petition for annulment of marriage.

In a decision penned by Associate Justice Sesinando Villalon, the Second Division of the CA ruled, “We find the evidence on records sufficient to prove petitioner’s allegation that the marriage ceremony as stated in the Certificate of Marriage between her and respondent which was supposed to have been celebrated on September 21, 2004 at Jaen, Nueva Ecija did not actually take place.”

Being both talents of TV network ABS-CBN, Kristine and Diether fell in love as they worked together on movie projects. They decided to get married on July 14, 2004.

However, while there were pictures to show that Diether and Kristine were wed by Jaen Mayor Antonio Esquivel on July 14, 2004 and witnessed by Col. Eduardo Divina and his wife, Susan, Kristine and Diether did not have a marriage license and were not required to sign a marriage contract.

Instead, documents sent to the young couple later indicated that their marriage license was issued on September 10, 2004. The date and time of the marriage was left blank and it was only later that the date September 21, 2004 was inserted as the alleged date of marriage.

He was always a cast on FPJ movies. He never had a movie where he is lead star but Berting Labra was a popular movie icon as a sidekick. Since I began to appreciate movies (that was in the late 80s), I have noticed of this small man on FPJ movies. I always referred to him as Noy Berting.

Berting had his share of controversies. He was put behind bars because of a controversial case. He also admitted being a member of an organized crime syndicate although he has later said he has regretted joining the gang.

Born in 1932, Berting Labra died of lung cancer on February 10, 2009.
