Melai Cantiveros, buntis!

Wow, Salve A., kumbaga sa pandesal, fresh from the oven ang balitang ito!

Yes, kasalukuyang nagdadalang-tao si Melai Cantiveros, ang up and coming comedienne who has the promise pa naman of making it big time.

In any case, we learned from another source na Melai herself will announce her condition at the proper time pero naunahan lang siya. Kaya alam na ng lahat na buntis siya.

Palibhasa Lalaki nag-reunion kay Vice Ganda

What do Richard Gomez, Joey Marquez, John Estrada, Eric Fructuso, and Anjo Yllana have in common?

Well, at one time, all of them belonged to the late Douglas Quijano’s stable of talents. A star maker in his time, Douglas was also their discoverer and maker.

No wonder that, at one time, they all were together in the sitcom Palibhasa Lalaki on ABS-CBN. Amy Perez was one of their leading ladies na kasama rin sa cast sina Carmina Villaroel, Jackie Manzano, who later became Anjo’s wife, and Gloria Romero. And, of course, Jomari Yllana at Mark Anthony Fernandez, who, along with Eric, ay bininyagan ni Douglas ng Gwapings.

With the death of Douglas, nagkanya-kanyang puwersa na ang lahat. By then, too, they had settled down na rin.

As we all know, married to Ormoc congresswoman and part-time showbiz talk show host na si Lucy Torres si Richard. Si Joey, after his three terms as mayor ng Parañaque, ay hiwalay na kay Alma Moreno and reportedly now is in love with a bank manager.

Hiwalay na rin sa asawang si Janice de Belen si John, who after na-annul ang kanilang marriage, married former Brazilian beauty queen Priscilla Meirelles.

May isang anak na sina John at Priscilla. With Janice, John has three daughters and a son.

Kahit sina Eric, Jomari, at Mark are now parents. Ganun din sina Amy at Carmina.

Now in her late 70s, Gloria still actively do some series on TV. Kasama nga siya sa malapit nang magsimulang bagong series ng GMA 7, ang Akin Pa Rin ang Bukas.

Kaya, sabi nga ni Richard, it was a rare occasion na makitang magkasama-sama sila, although not all of them, sa isang TV show tulad ng nangyari last Sunday sa programa ni Vice Ganda, Gandang Gabi Vice. All of them, after all, are individually busy nga naman.

Richard may not have won in the last elections in his bid to become Ormoc mayor. But he is busy just as well bilang chief of staff ng asawang si Congresswoman Lucy.

Busy din si Joey with his regular weekly showbiz talk show, SIR (Showbiz Inside Report). He is in the cast as well of the much admired currently sho­w­ing movie, On the Job.

John naman had just finished the teleserye, Huwag Ka Lang Mawawala, which co-starred him with Judy Ann Santos, KC Concepcion, and Sam Milby.

Anjo, besides being a newly elected Councilor of Quezon City, is a mainstay of the noontime program, Eat Bulaga, on GMA 7.

In Gandang Gabi Vice, the group was a riot to say the least. We were surprised when we realized that the program ended na sila lang actually ang guests ni Vice Ganda. And yet, we admit, if not swear, we enjoyed watching them play, among themselves.

We would not mind, but appreciate pa nga, if ABS-CBN revives Palibhasa Lalaki with some young contract stars ng Kapamilya added.

How about that, Ms. Cory Vidanes, vice president for entertainment?
