In the recent Celebrity Top List. Its Lady Gaga and not the famous host Oprah Winfrey that is at the top list for the Forbes annual celebrity list. The latter who earned $290 million last year ranks second on the recent list. What makes Lady Gage topples Oprah is her facebook and twitter followers that has indeed reached millions of subscribers. Isnt this a great news to the music-A lister?

Child Exploitations and Media Child Abuse
I am an advocate of Children Rights because i certainly believe that a child cant fight his rights and the best people to protect them are the people who value their importance and role in the society. I condemn people who takes advantage of our children for their personal gain. I hate to admit the fact that sometimes people used these innocent kids to easily captures peoples attention like what happened at Willing Willie. Jan Jan, the contestant is a portrayal of a poor child who would do everything to have money. And its basically wrong or tolerate people who at his consent used Jan Jan JUST to give them a good rating. Instead if Willie adheres or respect to the child's rights should have let him dance for that matter or do the things that will make people laugh, condone the child and worst would traumatize the child.

Whats your Facebook Status?
Facebook is the most popular social media avenue in the world. You can easily see updates of your friends and even browse for your classmates. But, did you know that Facebook then was just intended for Harvard Students. Check their history:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mark Zuckerberg wrote Facemash, the predecessor to Facebook, on October 28, 2003, while attending Harvard as a sophomore. According to The Harvard Crimson, the site was comparable to Hot or Not, and "used photos compiled from the online facebooks of nine houses, placing two next to each other at a time and asking users to choose the 'hotter' person".
Mark Zuckerberg co-created Facebook in his Harvard dorm room.
To accomplish this, Zuckerberg hacked into the protected areas of Harvard's computer network and copied the houses' private dormitory ID images. Harvard at that time did not have a student "facebook" (a directory with photos and basic information). Facemash attracted 450 visitors and 22,000 photo-views in its first four hours online.[12][14]
The site was quickly forwarded to several campus group list-servers, but was shut down a few days later by the Harvard administration. Zuckerberg was charged by the administration with breach of security, violating copyrights, and violating individual privacy, and faced expulsion. Ultimately, however, the charges were dropped.[15] Zuckerberg expanded on this initial project that semester by creating a social study tool ahead of an art history final, by uploading 500 Augustan images to a website, with one image per page along with a comment section.[14] He opened the site up to his classmates, and people started sharing their notes.
The following semester, Zuckerberg began writing code for a new website in January 2004. He was inspired, he said, by an editorial in The Harvard Crimson about the Facemash incident.[16] On February 4, 2004, Zuckerberg launched "Thefacebook", originally located at thefacebook.com.[17]
Six days after the site launched, three Harvard seniors, Cameron Winklevoss, Tyler Winklevoss, and Divya Narendra, accused Zuckerberg of intentionally misleading them into believing he would help them build a social network called HarvardConnection.com, while he was instead using their ideas to build a competing product.[18] The three complained to the Harvard Crimson, and the newspaper began an investigation. The three later filed a lawsuit against Zuckerberg, subsequently settling. Source : Wikipedia

Twitter Rift
The talk of the town today is about the exchange of tweets between Angelica Panganiban and the AZKALS player Phil Younghusband. I actually didnt know the issues in between then until ive watched last saturday an entertainment show and there they tackle the issue about them. Well, good thing i have this avenue to express my thoughts and opinion about this. First, i didnt like the comment and tweets of Angelica because i believe she has no right to question or to meddle with whatever business Phil has. Second, if theres AZKALS players are doing some interviews or they expres their admiration to a celebrity, then she has no business with it and that she better keep mum. Its like she is creating an issue and bad publicity for herself to be talk about. I knew social media is really very influential at present, and who doesnt lives here without its influence but nonetheless its no excuse to be irresponsible nor to maligned someone. I certainly want to stand out with my belief that tweeter is created because of an agenda for the betterment of everyone. the pros and cons of teh sites depends solely oh how we use this avenue, whether for our personal gain or for its adverse side. This social media became and avenue too to air out our thoughts and rants. It puts an equality among people in the world, whether you are celebrity or just an ordianry person, you can open an account and do what a celebrity does, we are all equal here. Your tweets is your resposnsibilty and it may also be used for you, against you and about you. When you started something that drew a line about the kind of persona you are portraying then expects that people may used it against you, no offensement. I cant see the reason why Angelica is reacting on the counter tweet of AZCALS fan when she started it out.
At the end of the day, i do hope this incident will serves as a lesson not only to the celebrities but to all social media user, whether its facebook or tweeter or anything, it also shows that its not only the celebrities who have the right to open up their thoughts, we can too. Being responsible to our actions is a proactive move. Over and above, whether your thoughts is no good or will bring goodness to one, lets take the responsibility of it and stand for it. Nonetheless, lets not forget to act beyond our territories.

Cebuanos Demand an Apology
I just read it in the paper a while ago, cebuanos particularly the league of the vice mayou file a resolution proclaiming ex Ms Univers Gloria Dias as persona ingrata, this is due to his allegations that cebuanos can hardly speak in english on one of her interview. Allegedly, Ms. Diaz talked in a public interview stating her views about the cebuanos, of course it really so unfair for them. In fact in major media avenue here, this is the talk of the town and they all call to banned whatever projects or movied Ms. Diaz will be part of, this is simply a wake up call to the artist and even to people who doesnt think first of what theyy say, but according to sources, Ms. Gloia Diaz will never apologize to the cebuanos regarding this issue.

Venus Raj ranked 4th Runner Up
I just finished watching the coronation night of Ms. Universe 2010 live, ABS actualli aired it out 2 hours late from the live streaming, i watched the live coverage via star world at sky cable. At first i am really impressed of how Venus made it that far, she was really stunning amidst beautiful candidates that sorrounded her. Her exotic beauty has really made the crowd so wild, in fact i can honestly say that she was the corwds favorite. I am already hopeful and i expected that she will be crowned as the new Ms. Univers but her answer in the final question and answer stage made her as the last pick. I maybe understand her feelings that time, she was probably so nervous so she wasnt able to think well, coz as far as ive observed her answer was very elementary. Not that i am so well in communication or a great conversationalists. of course taken consideration the stage freight and the crowd, it will surely made you mental block, however i must stand with the fact that then were properly trained and that part of the training was answering and thinking fast for that said stage. But i must say she did a great job, congrats to Ms. Venus Raj.

TODAY IS MARILYN MONROE'S BIRTHDAY
Today marks the natal day of the legendary and former sex goddess - Marilyn Monroe. Wondering who she is?
Birth NameNorma Jean Mortensen
NicknameThe Blonde Bombshell MM
Height5' 5½" (1.66 m)
Mini Biography
Her mother was a film-cutter at RKO Studios who, widowed and mentally ill, abandoned her to sequence of foster homes. She was almost smothered to death at two, nearly raped at six. At nine the LA Orphans' Home paid her a nickel a month for kitchen work while taking back a penny every Sunday for church. At sixteen she worked in an aircraft plant and married a man she called Daddy; he went into the military, she modeled, they divorced in 1946. She owned 200 books (including Tolstoy, Whitman, Milton), listened to Beethoven records, studied acting at the Actors' lab in Hollywood, and took literature courses at UCLA downtown. 20th Century Fox gave her a contract but let it lapse a year later. In 1948, Columbia gave her a six-month contract, turned her over to coach Natasha Lytess and featured her in the B movie Ladies of the Chorus (1948) in which she sang two numbers. Joseph L. Mankiewicz saw her in a small part in The Asphalt Jungle (1950) and put her in All About Eve (1950), resulting in 20th Century re-signing her to a seven-year contract. Niagara (1953) and Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (1953) launched her as a sex symbol superstar. When she went to a supper honoring her The Seven Year Itch (1955) she arrived in a red chiffon gown borrowed from the studio (she had never owned a gown). The same year she married and divorced baseball great 'Joe Dimaggio' (their wedding night was spent in Paso Robles, CA). After The Seven Year Itch (1955), she wanted serious acting to replace the sexpot image and went to New York's Actors Studio. She worked with director Lee Strasberg and also underwent psychoanalysis to learn more about herself. Critics praised her transformation in Bus Stop (1956) and the press was stunned by her marriage to playwright Arthur Miller. True to form, she had no veil to match her beige wedding dress so she dyed one in coffee; he wore one of the two suits he owned. They went to England that fall where she made The Prince and the Showgirl (1957) with Laurence Olivier, fighting with him and falling further prey to alcohol and pills. Two miscarriages and gynecological surgery followed. So did an affair with Yves Montand. Work on her last picture The Misfits (1961), written for her by departing husband Miller was interrupted by exhaustion. She was dropped from the unfinished Something's Got to Give (1962) due to chronic lateness and drug dependency. Four months later she was found dead in her Brentwood home of a drug overdose, adjudged "probable suicide

WILLIE'S LETTER OF OUTBURST
I wish i could possibly share with you here guys the letter of no other than Mr. Willie Revillame to ABS CBN Management about his indefinite leave and about the incident that happened wherein he asked the latter to terminate the contract of a certain radio commentator which he has a short grift with. I knew this guy is somehow untollerable, with lots of cases of untorwards uncidents that happened on his show, i guess its about time to give chance to others and consider other talents too. Yes, he has skills and the ability to make people happy but its no enough just to have the skills, you need to have the RIGHT attitude too. When i saw Robin doing the hosting, i knew he is more of hesitants at first but he is fine and he also has the chram for the masses. Neverthless, i wish Mr. Revillame's all the best of everything, i guess he needs prayers and spiritual guidance too. Hope hell be able to see the light and learn to always put his feet on the ground.

WHERE IS WILLIE?
Ive been thinking of what happened to the controversial host of WOWOWEE, i mean its already a week from no since his last show on his program. And today while i was reading a newspaper, there was an article that says, Willie left to Macau and he did not show to the networks bosses as he was asked to be at their office, the rumors is that the host was pirated by TV5 coz on tomorrow's Party 5 show thre will be a tribute for Willie, with his songs being sang by the maintstay there. Today it is Robin Padilla who became their guest host together with the female hosts of the show. As for me, the show will be much better without Willie coz i hate his arrogance. Hope the network will learn to discipline ther stars.

HATE WILLIE
I was about to put this meme last night but i forgot it, it was about WILLIE and his dramas today, i really coudnt help but feel s*** about how he put pressures on the management on his network on their alleged misunderstanding with the journalist. Its not that i hate this man, its just that i hate his attitude towards this incident, to the point that he will put bargains between them, isnt it so boastful to put the network in between walls, as he quotes, he will resigned from his show, if th latter will not terminate the contract of the journalist. I dont know this journalist either nor i am for him, i just hate the attitude that was shown, coz they are public figure, they should be the role model, he as the leader of the noontime show should always puts his feet always in the gorund and instead be thankful for all the blessings he is receiving. But its not what is happening, he is always very showy and that he wanted to show that he is that wealthy, i hate arrogance ad mush as i dont tolerate people stepping on someones shoes just to prove to the world that they are powerful. I hope the network will also discipline their employee if truelly they wanted to protect there identity as the leading network who always brings goodness to their viewers. THis is leadership by example.

KRIS AQUINO; OFFICIAL FAN PAGE
I must admit that im a huge fan of Kris Aquino, one time the SWS survey came and i was asked whom i was fanatic of, i didnt had a secind thought to confess that i am a fan of Ms. Kris Aquino. I normally subscribe to his sms journals, i waited patiently at bookstores for her K-mag and of course i followed her tweeter, facebook, watched hers shows and in short i am always updated with her. I dont know what made me so in love with her, i just loved the way she is tackless, her star quality and of course her being her, simple as that. Recently ive had an update that will surely give smiles to the fans of her. I have searched her newest site which tackles everything on her and about her in general. Her life, her endorsements, her whereabouts and many more. Visit her page. See yah

This Is It
yesterday i watched MJ's documentary film entitled "This Is It", ive thought its going to be a docu-drama film featiring Michael's life and his achievement, in a way a tribute to the king of pop, nevertheless the film really did a great job in offering a special presentation of a never seen rehearsals of Michael Jackson to his supposed to be concert before he passed away. Until this time its still fresh from my mind how the king of pop really creates a special place in my heart as his fans, he is en excellent performer, a great artist, a versatile performer. so professional and nonetheless, its no wonder he is so loved by his fans because he brings back the love to his audience, no matter how popular he is, he has no attitude problem, he is entirely so different from what is written in the news about his attitude. I love the way he reach out to the people and i admire him for being an environmentalist. A two hour film was for me not enough in bringing back the memory of the king of pop, as the show ends, i saw several people clapped their hand in showing their appreciation to the greatest performer this world has, i choose not, because i dont want to end his memory in that movie theater, i look forward in seeing a lot from him in the next years to come and i reserved my clap for that.

Willie, Suspended?
If youre an avid fan of WOWOWEE, then youll be surprise why the main host, Willie Revillame is not visible for quite some time, As per recent report, theyve told the press the he is on an indefinite leave, and will be back of August 29, but just recently there were reports that this possibility may at all be just a hearsay coz there were intrigued circulating among the press people that Mr. Revillame was given suspension letter by ABS-CBN Management and the MTRCB on the compaint of the latter to his misbehavior on Cory's update during one of his show. BUt according to reliable source and even PEP inside story, Willie might be back on TV on September 29 not because of any suspension issues but on his extention og his leave, An insider also quoted that Willie is totally hurt to ABS management coz he feels he is being abondoned by the network on its crises,the possibility of him leaving the show may be consider if ABS would not do something about it or even just dwell on the issue on the positive side on Willie's end.
More updates, coming.

The cry of a mother
This morning i read one of the articles at Philippine Entertainment Portal, It was about the Hyden -Katrina contorversy once again, But this time the article features on Mrs. Kho, Hayden's mother, she was full of anger against Katrina, she was accusing the later to be responsible of what is happening now, She then stands that her son was a decent man and never in his life he would intrued into illegal drugs of anything associated with activities done immorally, In fact, she told the media that everything was scripted with the help of manager Lolit Solis, The tears and the outburst of anger of the actress was all fake. She then end her interview with her tears and convictions that all this expose will not be this worst if not of the insanity of the actress, and that they were a private person, and not a showbiz personality, they then not deserved to be the limelight.
