Anne, Derek and Christine to star in a Movie

A movie is in a making to star Anne Curtis, Derek Ramsey and Christine Reyes. Others think that this might be a hard sell because all the stars are very vocal with their own relationship. Anne with Erwan Heusaff, Derek with Angelica Panganiban and Christine Reyes with Rayver Cruz. Let's hope that the story is superb, for this movie to have a chance to reach Box Office record.

MANILA, Philippines – Star Cinema and Viva Films announced on Friday that Anne Curtis, Cristine Reyes and Derek Ramsay are going to star in a movie about forbidden love.

Seen by some as the movie of the year with a “casting coup,” Curtis said the film will keep its patrons guessing. 

“Feeling ko, maguguluhan ang mga tao, parang kanino ba kami approve,” said Curtis.

Film writer Ana Manalastas said she made sure that viewers will not be able to predict how the story will develop.

Movie director Ruel Bayani said the roles that Ramsay, Curtis and Reyes will portray are very challenging.

“Hindi ito Kimerald movie, this will be sexy and daring. Not the usual mistress movie na ginawa na noon nina Vilma Santos,” he said.

In an interview with ABS-CBN News, Reyes said this will be her most challenging movie project by far.

“Ito na siguro ang pinaka-challenging na gagawin ko so far,” she said.

Ramsay, on the other hand, said that he is already excited about performing in the movie.

ANNE WALKS THE RUNWAY

Anne Curtis walks the runway of Philippine Fashion Week for Lyle Ibanez and Yvonne Quisumbing.

Anne Curtis arrived at the L'Oreal Lounge at around seven in the evening wearing a hot red number, her hair looking as bouncy as in her Total Repair commercial. We initially thought that she was there to watch the first of two shows sponsored by Philippine Fashion Week's official beauty partner. But what became the highlight of the night, for those present and others following via our feeds on Twitter and Facebook, was her runway walk for the Holiday collections of both Lyle Ibanez and Yvonne Quisumbing, a show presented by L'Oreal.

She opened Lyle’s show in a red, her L’Oreal color of the night, bustier dress with a sheer skirt walking the length of the catwalk like a pro. For Yvonne, she opened and closed the show in a red draped top worn over a black knee-length skirt with her hair still perfectly bouncy. In less than three minutes, Anne was able to change into another Yvonne Quisumbing creation to join the designers for a final curtain call.

Kudos to Anne for walking at Philippine Fashion Week for the second time around (first one being at the last Folded & Hung Streetcast). We almost couldn't believe it when she tweeted right after the show—"Yey! After having cold hands and jello knees! I survived the runway world!"

Anne Curtis and Gina Alajar Go Indie in ‘Kinse’

15 filmmakers unite to defend human rights through ANC’s “Kinse.”

ANC, the ABS-CBN News Channel, launches “Kinse,” a powerful collection of four to six-minute short films on human rights directed by some of the Philippines’ finest filmmakers.

A follow-up project to last year’s controversial “amBisyon2010,” “Kinse” features 15 stories that will hopefully pave the way to putting a stop to different kinds of abuses being experienced in the country.

Joining ANC’s crusade for human rights are directors Erik Matti, Carlos Siguion Reyna, Mark Meily, Auraeus Solito, Raymond Red, Jim Libiran, Jon Red, Richard Somes, Ato Bautista, Kiri Dalena, Ray Gibraltar, Raymund Amonoy, Kidlat de Guia, Nico Puertollano, and Paolo Villaluna, who all offered their time and talents pro bono for this project.

“Kinse” is also not bereft of star power with mainstream performers such as Gina Alajar and Anne Curtis acting in some of the films.

Executive producer Patricia Evangelista, who was at the helm of “amBisyon2010,” said that the films in “Kinse” will tackle a wide array of issues that include domestic violence, media harassment, extrajudicial killings, children and women’s rights, indigenous rights, and justice.

She added each filmmaker was given creative freedom and funding by ANC and the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, with the support of the Commission on Human Rights, so that they could pursue and fulfill their visions for “Kinse.”

In his film “Batch 2011,” Palanca-awardee Libiran will let us into the story of young men entering a “brotherhood” as a way to tell the graduates of this generation to protect democracy.

Matti, meanwhile, aims to defend the right to live freely in his opus featuring award-winning actresses Anne Curtis and Gina Alajar.

Villaluna, who co-created “amBisyon2010” with Evangelista last year, will show the story of a little boy whose life was cut short because society didn’t approve of his sexual preference.

“Kinse” is part of ANC’s year-long celebration of its 15 years of telling the nation’s stories. Evangelista said they hope that for every film in “Kinse,” “there will be one less victim whose story ANC will tell.”
ANC has also partnered with the Springfilm Foundation and The Embassy of the Kingdom of Netherlands, for a full length film on human rights being directed by Dutch filmmaker, Jacco Groen. The film will be released later this year.

“Kinse” will have a by-invitation theatrical premier at the Tanghalang Aurelio V. Tolentino (CCP Little Theater) on Thursday, May 19. To win invitations, join the “Kinse” contest on Twitter (@kinseanc) by sending your answers to 15 questions about film and human rights. The posters with the best answers will win two (2) tickets each. ANC will accept answers until tonight (May 16).

ANC will also air a six-part TV special on “Kinse” hosted by actress and women’s rights advocate Angel Aquino beginning Monday (May 23), 9:30pm on SkyCable ch. 27. Get to know more about the films and the directors of “Kinse” at www.kinse.tv.

Top Celebrity Endorser

Anne Curtis is the latest endorser of SMDC, among other products under her belt, and we all wonder what makes her the perfect endorser? Other artist may have a lot of billboard in EDSA but Anne dominates the road of EDSA. Having her billboards not just stationary but it travels along the road, a lot of the products she endorse are posted at the back of different buses. She is literally everywhere.

As per Abante, see top endorser in the Philippines below. 

Dalawampu’t tatlong pangalang base na rin sa kanilang visibility sa mga tri-media advertising campaigns ay maituturing na top celebrity endorsers ng bansa sa kasalukuyan.

KRIS AQUINO

Hindi na kailangan ng opisyal na listahan para patunayang among our local stars, the Queen of All Media is still on top kung bilang ng mga product endorsements ang pag-uusapan. The mere fact na in almost every gap ng mga programa sa telebisyon ay umiere ang kanyang mga commercials ay nangangahulugang she’s regarded most effective in bringing products to the awareness of the consumers.

SHARON CUNETA

Always visible ang Megastar sa kanyang mga commercials may TV show man siya o wala. Ibig sabihin, nasa kamalayan siya ng masang Pilipino at laging big deal everytime na ma-associate ang kanyang pangalan sa isang produkto. Given na ito dahil sa kanya na rin nanggaling na hindi naman siya basta tumatanggap lang ng endorsement, and instead ay namimili siya dahil aniya’y bahagi ng kanyang kredibilidad ang totohanan niyang pagtangkilik sa mga produktong iniendorso niya.

MANNY PACQUIAO

Bago pa man ang pakikipagbakbakan ng nag-iisang People’s Champ sa Las Vegas against Shane Mosley kahapon ay pumutok na ang balita hinggil sa pinakabago niyang mga endorsement deals not just here but in the US. Patunay lamang ito ng patuloy na pag-angat ng kanyang status bilang international athlete and celebrity. In our local grounds ay aware tayo sa napakarami na niyang product endorsement na siguradong bubuhos pa sa mga darating na araw.

ROBIN PADILLA

Marahil ay ang kakaibang machismo at mass appeal na taglay ng binansagang Bad Boy of Philippine movies ang dahilan kung bakit hindi lang sa pagiging action star siya klik sa masa kundi sa pagiging endorser din. Sa dami ng ad campaign at advocacies na pinangunahan niya all these years, it only shows na sa mundo ng adverti*sing, Robin Padilla has never been a bad name.

VIC SOTTO

Pak na pak as in fullpacked ang mga product endorsements ng nag-iisang bossing na si Vic Sotto. Sa mahigit tatlong dekadang hosting stint sa longest running noontime show na Eat Bulaga, hindi na rin mabilang ang mga produktong pinromote at ipinakilala niya sa publiko and yet masasabing habang tumatagal ay lalo pa siyang pinagtitiwalaan kaya naman among his contemporaries ay pinaka-visible siya sa mga commercials at this point in time.

JUDY ANN SANTOS

Inabangan ng masang Pilipino sa iba’t ibang teleserye na kanyang ginawa, ngayo’y patuloy siyang tinututukan ng kanyang mga fans sa teleserye ng totoo niyang buhay. Ganyan si Ms. Judy Ann Santos-Agoncillo dahil kahit man lang sa TV commercials ay pinananabikan siyang mapanood habang abala siya sa bago niyang role bilang asawa at nanay.

AI AI DELAS ALAS

Madaling maka-identify ang publiko sa tinaguriang Comedy Concert Queen dahil sa mga pelikulang may kinalaman sa pagiging ina na nagluklok sa kanya twice bilang Box Office Queen. Pamatay na mga punchlines, agaw-eksenang costumes at pagiging ‘nanay na nanay’ sa kanyang mga anak – alin man sa mga ito o lahat ng ito, posibleng dahilan kung bakit belong siya sa listahang ito.

AGA MUHLACH

Starting out still a bachelor in endorsing Jollibee until this day kasama na ang kanyang twins ay hindi matatawarang patunay how much the company trusted him all these years. Masayang pamilya at matatag na katayuan sa industriya, ito marahil ang sikreto kung bakit may pambihirang ngiti sa bawat commercials niya.

SARAH GERONIMO

Bentahe ng Popstar Princess ang kanyang huge fanbase kaya naman paborito siyang kuning endorser. Infact sa huling anim na buwan ng sirkulasyon ng Abante, si Sarah ang pinakamaraming beses na natunghayan ng mga readers sa kanyang mga print ad campaigns.
ANNE CURTIS

What keeps Anne Curtis beautiful? Kung iisa-isahin marahil ang mga produktong iniendorso ng Showtime host and Greenrose star ay makukuha mo ang sagot dahil si Anne na yata ang literally may inien*dorsong mga produkto na ginagamit from head to toe.

KIM CHIU

Mula sa loob ng bahay ni Kuya hanggang sa kanyang paglabas ay patuloy na sinusubaybayan ang upcoming ‘Binondo Girl’ at primetime teleserye princess ng Kapamilya network kaya naman sunud-sunod din ang endorsement offers sa kanya. Hindi naman nakapagtataka dahil masasabi ring siya ang produkto ng reality TV show na may pinakabonggang showbiz career sa ngayon.

ANGEL LOCSIN

It seems na apple of the eye hindi lang ng football athelete na si Phil Younghusband kundi maging ng mga adverti*sers ang two-time sexiest ng FHM poll dahil sa patuloy na pagdating ng mga endorsement offers sa kanya. Isa rin siya sa mga artistang hindi binibitawan ng sariling hukbo ng mga followers dahil mapa-TV show, pelikula and even texting polls ay sinusuportahan siya.

PIOLO PASCUAL

Piolo will not be the Ultimate heartthrob for nothing dahil kung followers din lang ang pag-uusapan ay laganap ito, dito man o maging sa ibang bansa. Very professional and passionate sa lahat ng kanyang mga ginagawa, hindi nakapagtatakang siya rin ang dream leading man hindi lang ng mga baguhan kundi maging ng mga sikat nang female stars.

MARIAN RIVERA

The hottest Kapuso star is also one of the most sought-after product endorsers in the Philippines. Taglay ang mukhang hindi puwedeng dedmahin ihalo man sa karamihan, hindi lang siya mukhang artista, hers is a face na sadyang pang-commercial pa.

KC CONCEPCION

She could be the Megastar’s heir apparent pagdating sa mga endorsement. No, not necessarily of the product brands na iniendorso ng kanyang megamom in her younger years kundi dahil taglay rin ni KC ang mga qualities bilang ideal product endorser of this generation.

JOHN LLOYD CRUZ

Best-remembered for his love-struck characters sa mga pelikulang nagluklok sa kanya bilang three-time Box Office King, Lloydie is definitely here and there to influence the consumers. Kung nagagawang i-memorize ng kanyang mga tagapanood ang mga nakaka*kilig niyang linya sa mga pelikula, bakit naman hindi ang mga produktong iniendorso niya.

DINGDONG DANTES

Maliban sa pagiging hottest leading man sa bakuran ng Kapuso Network, Dingdong takes on the responsibility as the founding Chair of Yes Pinoy Foundation na ang major objective ay makatulong sa mga less fortunate children. Kaya naman kung anuman ang mga blessings na naibibigay ng mga product endorsements niya, sigu*radong naisi-share din niya sa iba.

JERICHO ROSALES

Mr. Pogi is really back dahil pagkatapos ng sandaling panlalamig ng kanyang career ay muli niya tayong pinainit sa back-to-back na te*leseryeng Dahil May Isang Ikaw at ng palabas pa ring local adaptation ng Koreanovelang Greenrose. And with his chart-topping single Bumuhos Man Ang Ulan’, kasabay na bumubuhos ang mga offers for him to endorse a product.

DEREK RAMSAY

Kabilang sa elusive batch of leading men na angat sa looks and acting skills, madalas na may kinalaman sa wellness and nutrition ang mga endorsement ng actor, model and Frisbee player na si Derek Ramsay. Needless to say, muscles in the right places and athletic prowess really draw attention kaya naman hindi lang sa mga movie fans and televie*wers malakas ang kanyang appeal kundi maging sa mga health buffs and fi*gure-conscious na rin.

MICHAEL V.

Very effective for what he is not, ito marahil ang edge ni Michael V hindi lang bilang endorser kundi bilang komedyante. Umaapaw na sa talento, puwedeng-puwede pang maging kahit sino depende sa hinihingi ng konsepto.

BOY ABUNDA

Full of conviction and authority, sino ang hindi bibilib once na nagsalita ang most awarded talkshow host patungkol sa iniendorso niyang produkto? But of course, beyond hosting skills ay hindi matatawaran ang kredibilidad at magandang imahe na napanatili niya sa buong panahon niya sa showbiz kaya naman pasok din siya sa listahang ito. Isang mabuting kaibigan at mapagmahal na anak, even some of the biggest names in the industry entrusted their careers to ‘Tito Boy’ dahil sa kanyang starmaking power and expertise.

RYAN AGONCILLO

Hindi lang isang magaling na TV host, seems like being a husband to Judy Ann Santos and a father to Yohan and Baby Luchio are added points para mas maging indemand pa bilang product endorser ang isang smart-charmer at family man by the name of Ryan.

GERALD ANDERSON

Not to be left out is the other half of the famous Kimerald loveteam dahil aside from their numerous endorsement together ay may mga iniendorso ring produkto si Gerald on his own. Sa katunayan, sa kanyang mga latest TV commercials ay napapanood siya minus Kim Chiu.

‘Superstar’ Anne thanks her one million followers

With all the success and popularity Anne Curtis is enjoying as an actress and a TV host, she could just complacently savor the bounty of her toils, but there's no stopping Anne from challenging herself and venturing into other things.
In a previous interview with Yahoo! OMG! Philippines, Anne will be releasing her own recording album for fun and satisfying her passion. Now, Anne is already a step closer to becoming a businesswoman and is up in the Twitter ranks with over a million of followers.
In the press conference of the Cosmopolitan Philippines Fun and Fearless Female Awards 2011 at the Richmonde Hotel in Eastwood City on Thursday, May 5, Anne shared her thoughts on her new, fearless ventures and her Twitter milestone. In an online poll, Anne bested Marian Rivera, Heart Evangelista and Sarah Geronimo in the "Superstar" category for being the "Ultimate Cosmo girl."
Anne's cosmetics line
"Soon, I will become a businesswoman. I will be coming out with my own cosmetics line that I'm really searching for," Anne exclaimed. Considered as one of the most beautiful faces in the entertainment industry, Anne is admired for her looks and fashion sense—gracing various magazine covers and TV commercials.
"Of course, it is based on red lipstick. It's my thing. So, right now I'm meeting up with suppliers with the help of make-up artists I work with. So hopefully, if not the end of this year, in time for Christmas or early next year. People also always ask me of pink lipstick," Anne said referring to her own cosmetics line she will unveil soon.
Anne entered showbiz as an actress when she was 14 years old as a mainstay of the GMA-7-Viva Entertainment youth oriented drama, "TGIS". A Viva contract artist, Anne moved from the Kapuso network to ABS-CBN, where she blossomed into a topnotch showbiz personality. Last year, Anne established herself as a TV host through the ABS-CBN daily talent show, "Showtime."
Having shifted from acting to hosting, does Anne favor one over the other? "I really cannot choose just one because starting from 'Showtime,' it has been my passion to actually host and interact with madlang people. And acting will always be number one in my heart because that's what got me into this business. But, I really can't choose. My heart is really split in half for both acting and hosting," Anne told Yahoo! OMG! Philippines.
A million thanks
Recently, Anne also achieved another significant milestone being a user of the social networking site Twitter. She is the first Filipino celebrity who reached the one-million follower mark on Twitter, placing her in the ranks of Hollywood and international stars like Lady Gaga and Justin Bieber.
But for Anne, Twitter is another medium to express her thoughts and connect with people, especially her fans. With the feat, Anne is very thankful, while not feeling any pressure in carrying a responsibility of being able to communicate and interact with over one million Twitter users. "I'm not pressured at all. I continue being who I am with how I speak, may it be nonsense or maybe ranting about traffic or even if it's sharing about my favorite outfit for the month," Anne said.
"I'm really honored that I got one million mark and it's still growing. So, I'm just happy that people are following and it's also a chance for me to follow the people I admire here and in Hollywood. So, it's like a world of interaction and instant communication," Anne added. She also thinks she reached her milestone because her followers can easily relate to her tweets.
After reaching the milestone, she previously tweeted, "Thanks for wanting to follow and read all the nonsense, craziness and random thoughts I like to share! I love Twitter for making it possible for me to have instant communication and feedback from you guys and also a way for me to follow the people I admire! Cheers guys and thank you again for the love and support! Waaaaaah. You all made my day! Love you all!!!x"
Life an open book
As for being chosen as Cosmopolitan Philippines's "Superstar," Anne honestly thinks that she's fun and fearless especially with how she handled her previous mishaps. "Well, my life has been such an open book to the public. People know talaga how fun and fearless I can be. Last year was very challenging in my life with the mishap that happened in Boracay, but I think it was the first time in my life that I became fearless. Worked with 'Showtime' the next day and after that, parang walang nangyari," Anne said.
And having experienced both challenges and triumphs, what does Anne have to say to Filipino women? "So, it just goes to show na as a woman, no matter what happens, I believe that the show must go on. Not the showbiz aspect in your life, but as a woman, you may have your ups and downs, emotional roller coaster, but life goes on. And I hope to be that fun and fearless female giving inspiration to others," Anne shared.
"From acting, now I'm facing singing. So, fearless talaga, I don't care," Anne teased. She advised everyone to go for what they want and face it fearlessly. "As long as you're not stepping on anyone's toes, go for what you want. And I hope to be an inspiration to others," Anne said.

Why is Erwan Heusaff perfect for Anne Curtis?

Anne Curtis may be very busy with all of her showbiz commitments but she makes sure that she still spends quality time with boyfriend Erwan Heusaff. If you follow him in Twitter, you can say that he has some ways that is very much alike with Luis Manzano. While he's looks and the way he carries himself has similarities with Sam Milby. Seems like Anne already got the best of both worlds, Erwan is a combination of Anne's bestfriend (Luis) and greatest love (Sam). 

Anne's tweet last May 4:

Badminton and running with @erwanheussaff I kicked his butt at badi. Now to see who's the better sprinter! 

My favorite song for the month Feldberg - Dreamin. Thought i'd share it with you guys. Makes me think of @erwanheussaff Uyyyyyy. Sobrang Cheeeeeesy!

Erwan's tweet reply:

I feel pressured now! Um..Down by the Water by The Drums! uyyy  

For those curios with these songs, here it is:

And treat you like a real king
I′m dreamin dreamin of you
I′m dreamin I′m dreamin of you

Oh my god it′s getting late
I want to ask you on a date
I forgot to feed my cat
I′ll walk you over to your flat
Maybe I can stay a while
I′m dreamin

I just need some time to think
Do you want another drink
Will you be my everything
I′m dreamin dreamin of you
I′m dreamin I′m dreamin of you

“I wish I could thank everyone that congratulated me kaya lang baka next month na ako matapos! Hahaha,” she added.

Where did Anne Curtis spent her 2011 holy week.

Anne spent her holy week with friends love ones (Jasmine Curtis-Smith, Erwan Heusaff, Belle Daza, Franco Daza and Luis Manzano) at Punta Fuego / Tali Batangas.

Just finished my quiet time it's heartbreaking remembering how much Jesus suffered & yet he still said "Father forgive them for they know not what they do" also knowing that when he was crucified his mother Mary was there watching all of this  It reminds us of how much God loves us by giving up his son... Just thought I'd share it with all of you..-tweet of Anne

One of my favorite verses from today Matthew 28:20 "And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” He is and always will be. Let's not forget that.  have a blessed holy week everyone!-tweet of Anne

Anne Curtis's random activities before holy week.

Another TV commercial for Anne. She is The Queen of TV ads and Print ads nowadays.

 

(Done shooting the tvc! Yey! So excited to see how it turns out! Look who came to visit my baby @jascurtissmith-tweet of Anne)

 Watched The Script's concert.

 (Enjoyed the concert with @jascurtissmith  The Scripts lyrics are a killer! I get them completely!=tweet of Anne)

At Trinoma singing Alone for Greenwhich's American Idol.

(Thank you to Greewich and Star World for allowing me to feel like an American Idol tonight-tweet of Anne)

As of this time, Anne's Twitter followers 975,084. 24,916 more than she'll be the first Filipino celebrity to reach 1 million.

Rest in Peace AJ Perez.

As a fan, we support actors/actresses who like our idol the way we do. It gives as the impression that we have chosen the correct person to idolize when they say good things about them since they are the one who really have a chance to mingle with each other off cam. Just like the late AJ Perez, I noticed him when he tweeted Anne.

@annecurtissmith she's like my super crush, I've been trying to get her attention too. Hahaha!-by ajperez17

@AJPEREZ17 haha, well, hello ☺-by annecurtissmith

He invited Anne to be his Muse for a Senior event in LaSalle.

annecurtissmith: @ajperez17 DM me the details! I'll see if I'm free!! ☺ if ever anything, I'd love to. Just have to see if I can.

She did not fail him because she really was his Muse.

Then that's the time I noticed how promising young actor he is and can actually be the next Rico Yan. Both have a lot of similarities; same school, boy next door looks and a very good role model. Who would have thought that their similarities did not end there, both died on Holy week.

Anne posted tweets today:

annecurtissmith: I'll always hold the memory of being your muse for your senior year at LSGH. Rest in peace Aj ☹

annecurtissmith: my heart breaks. He was so young  “@zsazsapadilla: Rest in peace, anak AJ Perez.

Rest in Peace AJ Perez. Your life may be short but you are now on a much better place with the Lord’s Kingdom.

Finally, Anne Curtis and John Lloyd Cruz in 1 Greenwhich tv commercial!

 ABS-CBN and Viva Management may not have decided yet for a project that will top-bill Anne and John Lloyd but Greenwhich already made the first move to have these two popular actors to be seen in tv together with their newest commercial for Extreme Cheese Pizzas. Greenwhich tv ads is known to its barkada theme commercial.  They have been part of Greenwhich famiy for quite sometime now but it is the first time for them to be in one commercial. The chemistry is undeniable and a lot of fans hope that  ABS-CBN and Viva Management will finally consider for them to be team up in a movie or teleserye.

Anne Curtis and friends participated in "Earth Hour".

Last March 26, 2011 at 8:30 PM, for more or less 128 countries came together for Earth Hour 2011. This became a big event that even celebrities participates every year since 2007. Anne Curtis and her friends did not miss this event as this became their bonding time as well.

(Pictures below are taken from Raymond Gutierrez's Tumbler Account.)

 Erwan moved in to his new place and invited some friends over to have dinner. I reminded him it was gonna be Earth Hour and asked “Wouldn’t it be dark?” and he replied “That’s the point.” 

 What welcomed us was a nice candle lit set-up.

I’m always impressed with the food Erwan prepares. I keep forcing him to drop his office job and open a restaurant. Either that or join Top Chef. The mini burgers or sliders were amazing.

Belle and Adrien were the early birds.

Erwan made sure to include that “swish” with the salad dressing because he knew it would annoy me. It worked.

 Anne also helped with the dinner. Her job? Turning off the lights and lighting the candles. She shared new details about her upcoming album and I cant wait for the final product. She’s a big music fan and chose the tracks herself. Watch out for her collaboration with a bigtime singer!

George came when Earth Hour was almost done. Better late…. 

When Earth Hour was done it was time for dessert. He made these chocolate molten cakes and yes that’s a torch to make sure the inside was melted and moist before serving. When everything was finished, he also washed the dishes! Perfect host! Haha! 

It was my first time to try the Kinect on the Xbox. It’s a controller-free system similar to the Wii and we tried this new dance game that scores you based on how well you copy the dancer on the screen.

 Adrian was up first. 

You can tell how entertaining it was to watch him dance.

Anne has ASAP to thank for her dance background. She scored the highest and beat everyone at the game.

Good thing my camera died before they could take a photo of me. It was such a nice way to spend Earth Hour and catch up with everyone. Thanks Erwan and congrats on the new pad!

The Curtis-Smith Family

I can't help but to share this 2009 blog of Jasmine Curtis about "Who is her hero". It  give's us a little background about their family. It is very inspiring to know that despite their parents are separated, there's no bitterness in their hearts.

A hero for me is someone who is willing to help you in times of burden, someone who can risk their happiness for yours, someone who pulls you through even if it means hurting themselves and a hero for me is someone who can love me unconditionally. Nowadays heroes can be classified as real life heroes or “superheroes” like in the movies but a hero can be anyone, they don’t have to obtain superpowers or be overly rich they can simply be an average person who has touched your life or inspired you.

In my life I consider 4 different people my heroes but only one stands out the most. My first hero is my brother, Thomas James Curtis-Smith; throughout our lives we hadn’t always had the normal life. When we moved to Australia 4 years ago we both had to adjust. We both had to make new friends in a new school where we knew absolutely no one. It was tough and whenever I felt like everyone had turned their backs on me he was there to put a smile on my face, to pull me through the moments I thought to be unliveable.

My second hero is my father, James Ernest Curtis-Smith. Despite the fact that he doesn’t live with my brother, mother and I he continues to show his support and love and although he has a new family now he never forgets to be there as a father even if it only means calling us up to make sure everything is ok.I didn’t always have my dad around when I lived with him, he was always busy with his business trips but when he was around we spent time together watching TV, lying around, and talking. Simple but meaningful is how we tend to roll. He talks to me as if I was an adult; he doesn’t treat me like a child (even if sometimes it’s what I yearn for). I have to be honest and confess that I don’t know my father much but from what I do know is that he is an intelligent and supportive father. He is my hero because he continues to love me unconditionally and support me in the paths that I choose to take.

My third hero is my sister, Anne Curtis-Smith. We haven’t always been close, we’ve never fought and we don’t live together but this definitely hasn’t prevented us from being close over the past 2 years. How ironic that it happened when I moved here, when I am furthest away from her. I guess missing someone makes you realise how much you love them. We’ve both experienced living a tough life and we’ve both accepted our pasts. She has helped me in so many different ways, words can’t exactly describe them. She is my hero because whenever I am around her she makes me forget all the times that we were apart, all the times that we both got hurt, and all the times that we weren’t able to share together. Most especially, all the times I wished I was with her.

My fourth and most important hero is my mother, Carmencita Ojales Curtis-Smith. Compared to my other heroes she stands out the most because she has sacrificed so much for me to live the life I live now. My mother is of a Filipina and Spanish background; she was born and raised in the Philippines by her Filipina mother and Spanish father. Her role model was her grandmother who taught her everything since she couldn’t afford to attend school. Due to the fact that my mother’s life was very poor when she was a child she persisted to find a better life to give to her family.

She found a job that paid little but enough to support her siblings. She worked instead of attending school so that she could pay for her sisters and brothers school fees. She went out of her way to find another job that would pay higher, this time it meant leaving her family. This was when she first came to Australia; she worked relentlessly and sent every single cent she earned to them and kept enough for her to live a budgeted life. Her siblings all finished University and are now working all over the world including Dubai, America, Canada, Australia and the Philippines.

My mother is my hero because when we came back here to Australia she did everything for me even though she was sick. My mother is ill but this aside she is my hero. She always finds a way to support me, to make me feel happy, to show her concern for me. I thank her and remind her of my love for her so little yet she continues to be there for me. She’s the one that at the end of the day I thank God to have in my life the most. I was never close with my mum til we moved back here, she used to hardly be around the house and so I grew up with strangers taking care of me. Now that we live together, she provides for all my needs.

Sometimes I do feel as if she is pushing me too hard to be at the top but then I realize this is only because she doesn’t want history to repeat itself. She sacrifices her own happiness just so that I can be happy; so that I can live a life better than what she lived. My mother is also my best friend, only recently did I found out how much I can talk to her about. Sometimes she even acts like a silly teenager; she makes me laugh so much. My mother is definitely the hero in my life.

We all need heroes in our lives because they can be the ones that provide the change that you’ve needed or that smile which can turn your world around. Despite the fact that we are a broken family we continue to support and love each other, which is why they are my heroes.(http://jasminecurtissmith.blogspot.com/)

Anne Curtis to reunite with Ms. Kris Aquino

Anne's career will definitely continue to blossom this 2011. Green Rose is just a month old but it was already announced by Kris Aquino that a tv series with Anne is on negotiation.  The two of them were together in a very successful soap opera entitled Hiram way back 2005, which was Anne's biggest role after her move from Kapuso toKapamilya station.

"Pinagalitan kasi ako ni Deo [Endrinal, business manager of Kris], ang daldal ko daw kasi. Dapat daw hindi ko sinabi na may teleserye with Anne. Pero nasabi ko na so nandiyan na iyan. Pero dapat, hindi pa...It's directed by Chito Roño, but that's all I am allowed to say. Beyond that daw is talagang kakalbuhin na niya ako. So shut up na ako." Kris said.

At the latter part of the interview, Kris revealed more details, "The roles are perfect for both of us. I'm not allowed to say lang talaga coz sabi ni Deo, matagal pa iyan. Baka agawin pa yung idea pero kasi may advocacy involved dun sa project that is very close to my heart." (PEP)

Anne, Vhong, Kuya Kim and Vice Ganda bonds after Showtime

Showtime is a very successful program because it represents the genuine "barkadahan" of the cast. Their exchange of jokes during the show between hosts are very genuine and natural. That's because they are really friends on and off cam. If they have time, they try to bond and have fun outside the studio. Just like last Saturday (March 12, 2011), Anne, Vhong, Kuya Kim and Vice Ganda bonded after Showtime.

Anne Curtis "The Singing Dyosa"!

Anne Curtis continued to be the loyal Viva artist after being with them for 13 years; she signed another contract last March 10, 2010. "I've been with them for so long, since I was 12 years old. So, talagang no plans of leaving—forever Viva na ako," Anne said. 

During her contract signing in the Viva office at Philippine Stock Exchange in Pasig City, it was confirmed that she will record her album sometime in April. She finally got her wish to be a recording artist after she personally requested to have a debut album. "Ako ang nag-suggest—maging honest na tayo," she honestly said that made the press laugh.  "In all fairness 'yong sinabi ko, tinanong lang ako ni Ate VR [Veronique] 'Serious ka ba?' Sabi ko, 'Opo, serious ako. Thirteen years na 'ko sa inyo, it's time!' Pinaalam niya kay Boss Vic at 'yon din daw ang tanong, 'Serious ba siya?' After nun, pumayag na siya."

One of the special guests for her album would be her ex-beau Sam Milby. "Pero of course I have to write a formal letter coursed to his management to see if it will be allowed. Hopefully, payagan siya. Pero may isa akong pasabog na dapat ninyong abangan." When asked if Vice Ganda would have a participation in her album. "Alam ko si Vice kasi magkaka-album na sarili," sagot ni Anne. "So, unahan na lang kami!" 

Anne jokingly said, "Magkaiba kasi kami ng genre. Ako walang genre, siya meron! Ako kasi iba-ibang kanta so walang genre. Si Vice alam ko talagang mauuna siya kasi malapit na siyang matapos mag-recording."

What has Erwan Heussaff got to say of getting her wish come true.  “Very supportive, ti-next niya ako, ako I will buy many copies and give them for Christmas gifts, so sure na may bibili,” natatawang kuwento pa ni Anne.
