                    [Summary] => 

Like several Filipino oldtimers in California, Rogel Aragon has his own sad encounter with a Filipino singer-actress but it’s useless to tell the (same old) story here because it seems to have grown boring (ho-hum!) in the retelling, but nevertheless unflattering to the unrepentant and incorrigible “culprit.”

[Summary] => The first time Richard Merk heard her sing jazz, he was floored. He found out that Isabella not only got her mother Kuh Ledesma’s genes, she will also make a mark in a field her mom has not explored too well: jazz. And she’s only all of 21.

Jazz is written all over Isabella. Her iPod is full of jazz. She devours a jazz book Richard gave her. And yes, Richard sheepishly admits, "Isabella knows more jazz songs than I do!"

As a girl deprived of a happy childhood, she rose above poverty to make a name in modeling and showbiz. And now, in her comeback bid as singer-actress, Stella hopes to repeat that feat she pulled off as a teenager many years ago.

Back from a short stay in the US, Stella’s cropped hair-do screams, "I’m different now. I’m myself, and I’m having the time of my life!"

No longer did he put his style in the background and tailor-made it to suit the group’s (he has no regrets though).
