Bubble Gang is a long running gag show on Philippine Television shown on the GMA Kapuso Network. It is headlined by comedians Michael V and Ogie Alcasid with a slew of a capable and effective supporting mainstay cast mainly composed of hot hunks, Wendell Ramos and Antonio Aquitania among others, and on the other side of the fence, sexy comediennes Diana Zubiri, Francine Prieto, Maureen Larrazabal, Pauleen Luna, Ara Mina (who was recently axed, due to her transfer to rival network, ABS-CBN) and Rufa Mae Quinto.

These sexy Bubble Gang Girls are an asset if not an attraction to the show. These girls are all endowed in the bosom department, a bane in any TV show amusement. Diana Zubiri, Francine Prieto, Maureen Larrazabal, Pauleen Luna, Ara Mina and Rufa Mae Quinto, have each carved a name for themselves. And when before they were only considered as boldstars, they have evolved into respected actresses, courtesy of a rigorous and well rounded comedic acting in Bubble Gang.

So without further ado, indulge in the pleasures of the Sexy Bubble Gang Girls, Diana Zubiri, Francine Prieto, Maureen Larrazabal, Pauleen Luna and Rufa Mae Quinto, together with some semi-regular cast members as well, below.

Roxanne Guinoo bares some more in Ligaw. Yes that’s the final title of the afternoon soap replacing Prinsesa Ng Banyera. Before Ligaw, the soap has been tentatively titled, Wild Orchid, Orchid, Cattleya, Damong Ligaw and Ligaw Na Bulaklak. Personally, i would have preferred “Cattleya” since Roxanne Guinoo will play “Leya” the title character in the soap. Sid Lucero plays the love interest of Roxanne Guinoo. “Ligaw” also stars Ara Mina, Isko Moreno, Noni Buencamino, Jodi Sta. Maria, Dominic Ochoa, Chockoleit, Arlene Muhlach, Smokey Manaloto, Coco Martin, Joem Bascon, Erich Gonzales, Matteo Guidicelli, Carla Humphries, Jaymee Joaquin and directed by Andoy Ranay, same director of Prinsesa Ng Banyera.

Leya in Ligaw is a woman desperately trying to put the pieces of her sad, complicated life together. “‘Ligaw’ is about one beautiful girl’s (Leya) desire to complete herself by finding her own family, true love,” said Enrico Santos, ABS-CBN Business Unit Head.

“You will see a more daring Roxanne in Ligaw.”

There are again lots of talk going around about Kristine Hermosa and her attitude problem and Dolly Ann Carvajal in her column pointed out the reasons why there are such talk. Oh well, i reported such too when i wrote about Kristine Hermosa being an Attitude Queen and also when Kristine Hermosa made some problems in a commercial, Kristine Hermosa and Marian Rivera nag-attitude sa Maxi-Peel shoot, so that in the next Maxi-Peel commercial, it only featured Marian Rivera. ABS-CBN announced that there will be Book Three of Prinsesa ng Banyera and then all of a sudden it was announced that the series is ending soon.

Here’s what Dolly Ann wrote:

Looks like there’s more drama off-cam in the teleserye “Prinse sa ng Banyera.” In a previous column I wrote that the lead star Kristine Hermosa and director Andoy Ranay are at odds with each other because of the actress’ attitude problem.

After that item came out, Kristine apologized to Direk and for a while it seemed like all was well between them. Until Kristine started acting up again.

Depressed

My insider source reveals, “Direk Andoy begged off na from the last taping day. The show ends May 23. Di na niya ma-take ang pag-iinarte ni Tin. Pinaubaya na niya sa 2nd unit director niyang si Rechie del Carmen.

“Tin refused to do the burial scene ’cause depressed daw siya at ayaw na niya umiyak, so that scene was scrapped. At yung bridal gown na matagal nang pinapasukat sa kaniya, dun lang niya sinukat so ang tagal naghintay ng lahat para lang ma-alter ang gown for the taping.”

Kristine’s camp comes to her defense: “That’s unfair. Tin Tin is working so hard.”

But isn’t damage control futile when an artist is already out of control?

But in defense of Kristine Hermosa, several Prinsesa ng Banyera insiders are saying that the reason why Kristine and Andoy Ranay fought in the set is because Andoy Ranay wanted Diether Ocampo on Prinsesa ng Banyera and Kristine does not like it at all. Also writer Dinno Erece wrote this about the feud:

Pasalamat si Direk Andoy Ranay at hindi gumanti ang Star Magic sa kanya.

May katotohanan daw ang ilang balitang naisulat sa mga nangyari sa Prinsesa ng Banyera.

Nagalit si Mr. M of Star Magic kay Direk Andoy dahil sa paglaglag nito sa bidang aktes na si Kristine Hermosa. Kung masusunod nga si Mr. M, walang Star Magic artist ang makaka-trabaho pa ni Direk Andoy, pero hindi ito ginawa ng artist department ng ABS-CBN.

Ang papalit sa Banyera na Wild Orchid, another Star Magic star ang magbibida, si Roxanne Guinoo at alam din ni Mr. M na si Direk Andoy pa rin ang direktor nito. Take note, gusto sana niyang papalitan ang direktor, pero si Tin na ang nagsabi na huwag nang pakialaman ang set-up dahil baka madamay pa si Roxanne sa issue.

Kahit sumama ang loob ni Kristine Hermosa kay Direk Andoy, hindi siya gumanti.

Hindi lang akalain ni Tin na ganoon lang kadali na ilaglag siya ng direcktor.

“Mas matanda ako kay Ara, pero
hindi ako mukhang matanda!” — Jean

Mabuti na lang at malamig ang ulo ni Jean Garcia nang ibalita sa kanya
ang diumano’y naging pahayag ni Ara Mina tungkol sa natsitsismis na
relasyon nila ni Polo Ravales.

Sinabi raw kasi ni Ara sa isang interview na ang mga ex-boyfriend niya
ay napupunta sa mga mas matanda sa kanya, matapos niya silang hiwalayan.

Sina Polo at Jomari Yllana ang tinutukoy na ex-boyfriends ni Ara. Si
Jomari ay boyfriend ngayon ni Pops Fernandez, at si Polo ay
natsitsismis kay Jean ngayon.

Anyway, may malisya ang pagkakakuwento kay Jean ng sinabi umano ni
Ara. Kumbaga, sinabi ng tao kay Jean na sinabihan daw siyang `matanda’
ni Ara.

At siyempre, tumaas ang kilay ni Jean sa balitang `yon. Aba, pangit
nga naman `yung maakusahan kang matanda, `no!

Anyway, sa totoo lang ay walang malisya ang pagkakasabi ni Ara tungkol
doon. Hindi tinawag ni Ara na `matanda’ si Jean, kaya hindi dapat
mag-react ng bayolente si Jean.

“I have nothing against Ara. Maybe she has the right to comment on
that kasi nga ex-boyfriend niya si Polo.

“Hindi naman ako madaling mapikon sa mga ganyang isyu. Hindi ako
mapagpatol, kasi hindi naman ako affected!

“Kilala naman ninyo ako, `pag may ginawa ako or may narinig akong
hindi maganda sa pandinig ko, ipi­naglalaban ko `yon.

“Kahit anong sabihin nila, okey lang, karapatan nila `yon. At hindi
naman kapatul-patol `yang mga ganyang issue!” umiirap na sabi ni Jean.
“Yeah, mas matanda nga ako sa kanya (Ara). Pero hindi ako mukhang matanda.

“Pakitanong na lang nga sa iba kung mukha akong matanda? Siguro,
puwedeng sabihin na mature ako, but I’m not old!” dugtong pa ni Jean.
Nilinaw ni Jean na hindi siya galit kay Ara, dahil alam niyang wala
itong ibig sabihin sa kanyang naging pahayag.

At ipinagdiinan din ni Jean na wala pa silang relasyon ni Polo.
“Kayo kasi, bakit ba ipinagpipilitan ninyong mag-boyfriend kami ni
Polo eh, hindi naman!

“Alam naman ninyo na wala akong itinago sa buhay ko. Ngayon pa ba ako
magtatago sa edad kong ito? Nakakaloka!

“Alam ni Pol (tawag niya kay Polo) na hindi ako ready for another
relationship dahil masaya ako being single, masaya ako sa career ko,
sa family at sa mga kaibigan ko.

“I can go out anytime and anywhere I want. I can be with people or
friends that I’m comfor­table with. Ayoko nang pinagbabawalan ako,
ayo­ko nang nagpapaalam pa sa kung kani-kanino.

“As I’ve said, lumalabas kami ni Pol. We enjoy, we go out. Masaya na
kami sa ganun,” say na lang ni Jean.

Siyanga pala, proud na proud si Jean sa papel niya bilang nanay ni
Ma­rian Rivera sa Dyesebel ng GMA 7.

Sabi nga ni Jean, hindi siya pinatanda sa Dyese­bel, bagkus ay ginawa
pa siyang sopistikada.

Someone emailed me the following photos of Manny Pacquiao partying in Embassy Superclub but no date were given as to when did this happen. But it looks pretty recent. In these photos Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao is seen kissing a party girl and was also seen flirting with other girls. In one photo his bestfriend, whose name escapes me at the moment, is also seen grinning at what Pacman and the “girl” is doing, which is super intimate flirting.



This scandal in Embassy is just one of a string of recent rumored sexcapades of Manny Pacquiao. With money and fame comes girls. Now, i understand why wife, Jinkee Pacquiao is rumored to have thrown a fit when Manny Pacquiao was rumored to be having a relationship with actresses Ara Mina and Valerie Concepcion.
