Vivamax is in again for another beauty in its long list of sexy actresses. It has just welcomed a new nymphet to their latest film offering, "Lagaslas" - the stunning Manang Medina from Olongapo. This may sound different but we're used to hear the word 'manang' as a part of our respect for the generations ahead of us (elders) but this time it seems that we're in for an unlikely quonotation of the term - a more sexy and erotic. While she (Manang Medina) may not be a traditional "manang," she is certainly an actress ready to take the world by storm, even if it means shedding her clothes to do so. As it implies in an interview, “Artista po ako. Teatro po ang training ko. Basta kung ano ang dapat sa ikagaganda ng istorya, handa ko itong gawin.” [I am an actress. I trained in theater. Whatever is needed to make the story more beautiful, I am willing to do.] And based on the recently-released teaser for the film, it seems that she fully lives up to her promise.

Anyway, 'manang' or not, she will definitely a new color to expect in Vivamax color pallette of sexy stars.

 

Renowned singer-songwriter and producer Rico Blanco has once again dazzled audiences with his latest single, "Palibot libot," under Sony Music Entertainment. The accompanying music video, directed by Cris Escolano and co-directed by Blanco himself, delves into the world of science fiction, presenting a story of humanity grappling with hopelessness. Featuring Blanco, model Tuti Pon, and a robotic figure named "The Entity," created by Richard Somes, the video takes viewers on a thrilling journey through a set that looks like a wreckage from an unknown planet.

Production Designer Justine Arcega-Bumanlag is thrilled to have worked with the team, capturing the imaginative vision of the material. Blanco aimed for a classic-looking music video that stands the test of time, avoiding the use of computer-generated imagery. The end result is a visually stunning work of art that perfectly complements the song's poignant message.

"Palibot libot" reflects on the complexities of love and relationships, inspired by one of the characters in a series that Blanco filmed in La Union last year. The song explores the uncertainty that often thrives between friendship and romance, emphasizing the beauty of the complications that come with love. It is an honest portrayal of the reality that love is not always perfect or synchronized, but it is these imperfections that make it all the more beautiful.

The new TV series, FPJ's Batang Quiapo, received a warm reception from fans and viewers after its first episode aired. The show features talented actress Miles Ocampo and is produced by popular actor Coco Martin. However, the show recently faced criticism from the Muslim community due to an episode that portrayed the community in a negative light.

Fernando Poe Jr., or FPJ, is a beloved figure in the Muslim community, not just for his films, but also for the respect and recognition he gave to the community in his work. It was disappointing that the Batang Quiapo series offended the Muslim community, even though the episode in question was fictional. The scene depicted a Muslim character tolerating theft, which many viewers found offensive and inaccurate.

Gaming and finances, a match made in heaven, is it?

If you're from the 80s or 90s, I'm sure you have witnessed the transition of 2D games to what we now have, the 3D, the 4D, and virtual. But, if you're one of that old soul with a thing for 2D games, well, great for you because we will be talking about 2D games.

The only catch in today's topic is that our 2D games are more into financing. Yes, we will be playing and learning as well, per se.

Since we're maturing, or shall I say, matured already, adulting is something we should do. That is probably what most of us didn't care much when we were younger.

Okay, so let's start with getting to know more of the site. What it is all about, and what does it offer, aside from knowing that it is a financing game. So let's test our skills, challenge ourselves, and have fun.
