Ang MMPRESS Appreciation Night  

Matapos mag-rebrand ang ENPRESS (Entertaintment Press Society of the Philippines) at maging MMPRESS (MultiMedia Press Society of the Philippines) kamakailan, minabuti nitong magbigay halaga sa mga personalidad na may mahalagang ambag sa entertainment bilang panimulang proyekto. (mas inclusive na raw ang grupo…inclusive of tax?! Chos!)

Nitong nakaraang Biyernes, naatasan akong maging host ng MMPRESS Kick off and Appreciation Night sa Dengcar Theater Mowelfund (bilang member ako, may choice ba ako?!)

Ang aming Founder at Chairman na si Jun Nardo ang nagbigay ng panimulang mensahe (alangan namang ako?!).

 Nagpasalamat sya sa mga miyembro (na wala raw attitude ha!) at mga sumusuporta (takot lang nila na hindi mag-support!)

Nagbigay naman ng oras para i-share ang kani-kanilang talent sa pagpe-perform sina GMA Sparkle art-ist Liana Castillo, P-pop Group 1621 BC at singer na si Pappel (na walang dalang lapis!)

May tatlong kategorya ang parangal ng gabi. Ang “MMPRESS Heroes”, “Entertainment Stalwarts” and “Trailblazing Leaders.” (ang hirap i-pronounce ng titles ha!)

Sina Showbiz A-lister Dingdong Dantes, former Quezon City Mayor Herbert Bautista, MTRCB Chairperson Diorella “Lala” Sotto-Antonio, respected and seasoned editor-writer Jo-Ann Maglipon, film producer Joji Alonso, GMA showbiz reporter Lhar Santiago, renowned talent manager Perry Lansigan, director Mike Tuviera (represented by Jojo Oconer) at revered actress and industry mover Boots Anson-Roa ay present na tinanggap ang kanilang mga award (close na kami ni Tita Boots bilang nakatabi ko sya!)

Lahat sila ay nagpaabot ng pasasalamat sa natanggap na recognition. (at least hindi puot ang inabot!)

Special mention lang kay Ms. Jo-Ann Maglipon na nag-iwan ng makabuluhang mensahe.

Isa sa kanyang mga quotable quotes nung gabi ay : “I do not think of showbiz as a side bar or an addendum.

I want showbiz at centerstage. I want it respected.” (taray ‘di ba?!

Dami pa nyang bonggang hanash!)

Ang ilan pa sa mga honoress na di man nakadalo (may prior commitment po!) pero nagpaabot ng pasasalamat ay sina actor-politician Alfred Vargas, Department of Fi-nance Secretary Ralph Recto, beauty magnate Rhea Anicoche-Tan, boob tube executive Malou Choa-Fagar, well-loved TV host Boy Abunda, former Manila City Mayor Isko Moreno, respected radio personality and talent manager Noel Ferrer, former Ilocos Sur Governor Cha-vit Singson, Senator Ramon “Bong” Revilla, Jr., famous showbiz writer and talent manager Lolit Solis, seasoned columnist Ronald Constantino, GMA top honcho Annette Gozon-Valdes, ABS-CBN bigwig Cory Vidanes, Viva big boss Vic Del Rosario, Jr., film producer Guido Zaballero, Regal mogul Roselle Monteverde at MMDA Acting Chairperson Atty. Romando Artes. (sa susunod isisingit ko name ko sa list!)
