Kris Lawrence girlfriend Cristina Aldecoa is a Pinoy Dream Academy Season 2 finalist. Will she make the cut? Find out when Pinoy Dream Academy season 2 premieres the week after Pinoy Big Brother Teen Edition Plus ends.

Cristina “Meye” Aldecoa in Pinoy Dream Academy Season 2 audition was shown tonight. Cristina was branded as the Filipino Dreamer from New York. The Endemol representative said, Cristina looked sad because of her background which is from a struggling family in the US. Direk Joey Reyes and Ryan Cayabyab said she looked sad and compared to another contestant who was also from a poor/complicated family life, was bubbly. Cristina Aldecoa was able to get through tonight and into another round of the Pinoy Dream Academy Season 2 auditions.

PBB Teen Edition Plus Big Winner is Ejay Falcon. He was crowned as Big Winner in a colorful extravaganza Saturday night at the Big Dome. He bested Robi Domingo, who was the Runner Up. 2nd Runner Up is Nicole Uysiuseng and Beauty was 3rd Runner Up.

Some sectors are complaining that in the last 10 minutes of text voting, all those who are voting for Robi Domingo were not able to get through while all those voting for the other housemates were able to vote and be counted. They said that when they voted for Robi Domingo, an error comes up but when they tested the other housemates, esp. for Ejay Falcon, the votes are counted. They also allege that it was deliberate because they cannot have Robi Domingo as a full time talent because while in the show, Robi has signified his intentions to pursue his studies, while Ejay Falcon can be of service to ABS-CBN because he signified his intentions to pursue a showbiz career and not his studies.

In my recent post about the Sunshine Cruz and Cesar Montano’s separation, it was known that the cause of their separation is a pretty teener, with conflicting accounts of her age ranging from 16 years old from her camp to 19 years of age from her Friendster profile.

And the pretty teen model said to be the culprit is Mariana del Rio or sometimes spelled as Marianna del Rio, a Brazilian model based in the Philippines who became famous for that Samba corned beef commercial wherein she sashayed her Brasilian samba prowess to the male audience’s delight.

To get a grasp of how Mariana del Rio got Cesar Montano smitten, take a look at her photos here..does she measure up to the equally beautiful and young Sunshine Cruz? Does Mariana del Rio’s beauty really broke a marriage? There are sketchy reports that she just had a one-night stand with Cesar Montano and she went to Korea for the Holidays with her boyfriend (not Cesar). Meanwhile Cesar Montano vehemently denies a separation saying it was just a minor misunderstanding between him and Sunshine.

Click on the photos for an enlarged view. Btw, who the h#$ll is that guy beside her in one of the pic? He’s hot! Is he the boyfriend?
