Bakbakan ng mga beteranaNi Armin Adina

TULAD sa unang edisyon nito noongisang taon, muling naakit ng MissWorld Philppines pageant ang mgabeterana ng iba’t ibang pambansangpatimpalak kagandahan.

Marahil muling nag-alab ang interes ngmga Pilipina sa MissWorld pageant dahil samatayog na narating ni2011 Miss World

Philippines GwendolineRuais, na pumagalawasa 2011 Miss Worldpageant sa London.

Pinutol niya angmatagal na pananam-

lay ng Pilipinas sa

pinakamatandangpandaigdigang patim-palak kagandahan.Bago ang pambihirangpagtatanghal ni Gwen-doline, ilang taon dinghindi natawag angPilipinas sa semifinals,gayong bago nito nag-sunod-sunod na ringpumasok ang mgaPilipinang pambato sa

Miss World.

Para kay Gwendo-line “special” angbagong hanay ng mgakandidata sapagkat“there are a lot of dif-ferent beauties. May morena, Caucasian,exotic.”

Pinakilala ni Cory Quirino, license hold-er ng Miss World parasa Pilipinas, ang 25

opisyal na kalahok sa2012 Miss WorldPhilippines pageant sa

Manila Hotel noongHunyo 7.

Kabilang sa mgamakikipagtunggali parasa korona ni Gwendo-line si 2011 BinibiningPilipinas Best in Swim-suit at semifinalistQueenierich Rehman,

 AGAMUHLACH ON BEING A FATHER, EXPLORING

THEWORLD, AND KEEPING IN TOUCH BACKHOMEHow does one reconcile showbiz schedule with family

time? Ask Aga Muhlach and he’ll admit without a moment’shesitation that, indeed, it is never easy to be in show busi-ness, especially for a father like him. Aga has recently beengoing around the world, embarking on adventure-filledsprees that take him to familiar and exotic places, as host of TV5 weekly show Pinoy Explorer.

However, his globetrotting ways are not without personalsacrifice. As much as it is fun to travel and explore differentdestinations, it is also heart-rending for the actor every timehe travels without his wife and kids.

But home is where the heart is and so, whatever part of theworld the multi-awarded actor may wind up in, he is sureto touch base with his family. “Kahit pa busy at hecticang schedule ko, I see to it that I stay connected with Atasha and Andres e very chanc e I get lalo na pag their mommy (Charlene) is taping for a show,” shares Aga.

 Aga’s edutainment show has brought him to provinc-es in the Philippines, as well as to foreign soils. Buthe has modern technology and Sun Cellular tothank, for bringing him closer to home. “Duringmy time, we only had operator-assisted calls.Good thing we have mobile phones today for calls and texts!”

Furthermore, Aga is always on the loopwith goings-on in his family even during hisabsence. “Calls from my wife and the twinsgive me the assurance that they are safe andsecure. I’m happy, too, that we use Sun Cellular not just for local calls but more importantly for overseas calls when I’m abroad. Ang gallingnga eh kasi parang local call lang, with Sun’svery affordable IDD rates! Plus, the signal isvery clear and stable,” he notes.

Sun Todo IDD Tawag comes very handy for theTV show host as it offers affordable IDD rates to dif-ferent parts of the world including the US (Main),Canada, Hong Kong, Singapore, China, Guam,and Hawaii at only P2 per minute. Meanwhile, callsto Australia, Malaysia, South Korea, Taiwan, Macau,

Brunei, Thailand, India, and Northern Marianas are at P5 per minute. Other countries covered by the Sun Todo IDD Tawaginclude Japan, Italy, Bahrain, and Kuwait at P8 per minute,and Saudi Arabia, UAE, UK, Indonesia, Spain, and France atonly P10 per minute. Plus, with Sun’s strong partnership withPLDT-Smart network, subscribers are sure to enjoy stronger signal and wider network coverage in the Philippines.

Fatherhood has indeed given the former matinee idolmuch fulfillment. “Like any parent, Charlene and I want our kids to be better individuals when they grow up, so we teachthem good values while they are young.” Aga also proudlyshares that his twins are very self-reliant and responsible as

early as now. Aga’s devotion to his children and family hasn’tgone unnoticed. Last year, he was named as one

of the Ulirang Ama awardees by the NationalMother’s Day and Father’s Day Foundation,Inc., an award-giving body that recognizes

model parents who exemplify integrityand high moral principles in raising

and nurturing their children. For allthe awards and titles that he’s beengiven, none is as fulfilling and bearsso much personal impact as that of 

being a father. “It is something thatI work hard on because I want to bea good parent to my kids.”

Sun Todo IDD Tawag is availablein P50, P100 and P300 via callcard or via Xpress load. It is alsoavailable via load conversion bytexting TODOIDD 50/TODOIDD

Mixtape

Tom Cruise singingStacey Jaxx or not isirrelevant, because we

see him truly ASStacee Jaxx.

The one scene where the film actual-ly attempts to be dar-ing is when music

 journalist Constance(Malin Akerman) in-terviews Jaxx in I Want to Know What

 Love Is. After thatscene, I kept wonder-ing why the film lost

the hyper-camp,tongue-in-cheek, row-dy comedy of thestage original, consid-ering that the film di-rector is the stage ver-sion’s choreographer,

 who was also respon-sible for the Hairspray movie. There’s anoth-er scene worth noting,involving Alec Bald-

 win and Russell Brand(Lonny) but shouldremain a surprise.

The rest of the filmis a teen TV show pre-tending to be a rock 

 jukebox musical that’sabout as rock-rebel-

lious as alcohol-lacedfruit punch at Prom.There’s a reason the

stage musical had thesong We Built This City and that was becausethe strip was beingphysically demolished.In the movie, the songis an excuse so ’80spersonalities such asDebbie Gibson and Se-bastian Bach cancameo in the crowd.

While I never sawthe Broadway version,

I just recently saw theManila staging whichopened last Friday (which shall be thesubject of my next re-

 view). It should not beunfair to compare thefilm with the stage

 version, just as theManila staging is opengame for those whosaw the Broadway mount. This much Ican declare, as fair as Ican say it: the movie isnothing like the stagemusical. Not at all.The music may soundfamiliar, but the verveisn’t just the same.

Review by Vives Anunciacion

 Rock of Ages Directed by Adam Shankman Based on the multi ple Tony Award -nomi nated Broadway musical

IWANTED to like this, but it’s Glee

with glam rock thrown in. Rock of  Ages the movie is a collection of 

music videos of karaoke-covered rock anthems vigorously mixed in a Rain-

bow Brite bag. If you like Glee, you’lllike this movie. I never liked Glee, nev-er ever. Nor did I like Rainbow Brite.

Based on the hitBroadway musical of the same name, the

 jukebox musical isabout love and artisticstruggle in the sunset

 years of Glam Rock.Just think: Bon Jovi,Journey, Twisted Sister,

Poison, Pat Benatar,Extreme, Steve Perry,Starship, and Def Lep-pard, among others.

Small-town girlSherrie (JulianneHough) and city boy Drew (Diego Boneta)fall in love on SunsetStrip as they struggleto reach their Holly-

 wood dreams. Drewhelps Sherrie get a jobas a waitress in the

Bourbon Room—arun-down joint that

 was in its heyday thecenter of Rock & Rolluntil pop music camealong. Careers and re-lationships collide

 while the mayor(Bryan Cranston) andhis conservative wifePatricia (Catherine Ze-ta-Jones) connive torid the city of its “sins.”

 Alec Baldwin playsthe owner of BourbonRoom Dennis Dupree,

 who makes a last-ditch attempt to re-

 vive the bar by invit-ing rock god StaceeJaxx (Tom Cruise) toperform. Jaxx is theliteral, and Cruise isthe figurative, super-star of the show, as if the Mission Impossible

star was born to act

the self-absorbed,strange Stacee Jaxx.

The film is hyper-edited to the point thatmany performances by the actors are cut off 

 just to showcasechoreography. The sto-ry is paper-thin as it is

 with the original, butof course the originalbenefits from live per-formances. The setsmay look big andthere may be lots of extras and dancers,but the on-screen busi-ness is all pretend, justlike a TV show shot ina studio.

The film wouldhave benefited a lotfrom more engaging

and better performingleads. Case in point isthe only exception tothe karaoke proceed-ings: Stacee Jaxx.Whether it was truly

Heat, Thunder salpukanleague, most athletic pointguard in the league to the bestshot blocker to the best post de-fender, best wing defender andour bench is one of the best,”sabi ni James Harden. “This is aperfect team. We are youngguns. We get it done. It has to

start in Game 3.”Ganito rin ang paniwala ni

coach Scott Brooks. “I’ve seenall year long a group that’s al-

 ways committed, that alwayssticks by one another, that be-lieves in the work that we putin,” ani Brooks. “And that’s whothey are. It’s not going tochange. They’ve always hadgreat ability to bounce back af-

ter a tough loss and we expectthe guys to come back (Sun-day) night with better effort,better play and for 48 min-utes.”

Pareho ang inaasahan niJames na nais burahin angkanyang pagiging ‘‘kapos” sa

mga importanteng laro.“I’m enjoying it,” wika ni

James. “I’m having fun withthese first two games. I mean,this is a great opportunity formyself and for our team, forboth teams. It’s a lot of fun be-ing out there and competing ata high level, you know, the in-tense moment where every pos-session counts.”

MIAMI — Noong isang taon, ginamit nina Le-Bron James at Dwyane Wade ang mga sali-tang desperado at apurahan.

 At ito ang inaasahan ng Mia-mi Heat na dadalhin ng Okla-homa City Thunder sa Game 3ng NBA Finals.

Ganito rin ang nangyarinoong nakaraang season kungsaan nagwagi ang home teamsa Game 1 bago mawala angangat sa homecourt matapos

 yumuko sa Game 2.“You’ve got the two best

teams in the league right nowgoing against each other,” sabini Wade Sabado sa praktis ngHeat. “So it’s going to be a

 very tough game, but we haveto find a way to win it. And it’s

about taking, like I said, onepossession at a time, one sec-ond, one minute at a time tomake sure we reach our goal— and that’s to win thegame.”

 Aminado ang Heat na hindisila nakatitiyak ng tagumpay kahit kunin ang Game 3. Nag-

 wagi ang Miami sa Game 3 saDallas ngunit ito ang nagsilbinghuling panalo ng Heat sa serye.

Makukuha ng magwawagiang homecourt at dalawang

panalo na lang ang kailanganupang makuha ang titulo.

“We have no other choice,”sabi ni Thunder star at NBA 

scoring champion Kevin Durant.“We lost at home. Tough loss.We’ve got to get over it, getready for a tough Game 3. Youknow, the series is going to betough.”

Sinabi ng Heat na ayaw nanilang pag-aralan kung ano angpagkakamali nila noong isangtaon.

“I don’t know if we were any more motivated in Game 2,” wi-ka ni Miami coach Erik Spoel-

stra. “What we were was angry about our performance in Game1. ... You want to throw yourbest punches out there, andmay the best team win. Wedidn’t throw our best punchesin Game 1.”

Halos pantay ang mga statssa unang dalawang laro. Hindirin kabado ang Thunder nanawala sa kanilang homecourtedge.
