It seems that the silent rivalry between Beauty Brand CEOs Miss Glenda and Rosmar Tan reached another level.

On their social media pages, the two most followed beauty product owners in the country announced that they’re going to hold a concert next month in the same venue.

Miss Glenda who owns Brilliant Skin Essentials Philippines told her followers that her concert titled ‘#Pinakamakinang’ will be held at Araneta Coliseum on February 7, 2023.

Several celebrities and guests will also perform during the concert including Andrea Brillantes, Mayonnaise, and Adie.

Meanwhile, Rosmar Tan who owns Rosmar Skin Essentials will also hold her concert ‘#ROSMARMASPINALAKAS’ at Araneta on February 27, 2023.

She also invited several bands like December Avenue, Spongecola, Itchyworms, and Rivermaya.

Netizens noticed that the two were using the same color theme for their concert poster suspecting that the two were trying to compete on the possible attendance of their concert.

It can be recalled that Glenda and Rosmar confronted each other on social media last year.

Glenda even said that she was ready to face Rosmar anywhere to prove that her products were superior.

The issue even reached the Department of Justice (DOJ) when Glenda announced that she was planning to file a case against a certain individual who was believed to be Rosmar.

She also posted a photo with her lawyers Atty. Garreth Tungol, Atty. Joren, Atty. Daniel, Atty. Gab and Atty. Sarah.

Rosmar reacted to the possible charges, saying that her lawyer would talk for her.

“RELAX MUNA TAYO OVERNIGHT BAGO MAG FILE NG PATONG PATONG NA KASO BUKAS SA ‘IBAT IBANG TAO’. ABANGAN! PAGTITYAGAAN KO KAYO KAHIT MEDYO SASAYANGIN N’YO ORAS KO. SANA LANG UMABOT HANGGANG DULO ANG LACASH NYO! HAHAHAHA,” she said.

Many Filipinos are dreaming of becoming an artist someday because of the high income being received by some celebrities.

Several celebrity vlogs showed how some people working in the showbiz industry were having a comfortable and sometimes luxurious life.

However, not all celebrities maintained their lifestyle after their retirement.

This can happen for a variety of reasons, such as poor financial management, extravagant spending, or simply not having enough money saved for retirement.

Unlike normal workers, most celebrities don’t receive retirement pay or other benefits because they’re not considered ’employed’.

One notable case of a celebrity who didn’t have a happy retirement was former action star John Regala.

It can be recalled that Regala asked for financial help from his colleagues in showbiz but it was later ignored.

“Mga kapatid ko sa industriya ngaun ko napatunayan na wala kayong pag ibig sa akin,” he stated.

One of the popular figures who made a reaction to Regala’s statement was motivational speaker Rendon Labador.

According to Labador, the current situation of Regala should become a warning to other celebrities to save up for their retirement.

“Sarili mo lang makakatulong sayo. Masakit na aral to sa lahat ng celebrities! Mag isip kayo ng LONG TERM habang kaya ninyo pa. Magising kayo sa katotohanan,” Labador said.

After appearing in more than 100 movies and becoming a director once, Regala was supposed to be wealthy after retirement.

However, in 2020 netizens discovered that the former action star was facing financial difficulties and health problems.

The photo of Regala has gone viral on social media and some celebrities extended their help to help the former action star with his medication.

Celebrities like Nadia Montenegro, Chuckie Dreyfus, and Aster Amoyo personally visited Regala and even made crowdfunding to help their former colleague.

However, the help suddenly stopped when the said celebrities alleged that Regala only wanted to use the money he was receiving for his vices.

Until today, Regala was still facing health problems that required medication.

Eraserheads’ reunion concert ‘Huling El Bimbo’ held on December 22, 2022, was considered successful by fans after it was watched by 75,000 people.

Several netizens also congratulated Alden Richards who’s a co-producer of the concert for the successful event, believing that the actor made some money for his investment.

Alden’s venture Myriad Corporation was part of the producers of the said concert.

However, Entertainment columnist Salve V. Asis revealed that Alden’s company didn’t earn any money from the concert because of the talent fee received by Ely Buendia.

According to Asis, Ely’s talent fee reportedly reached a whooping P80,000,000 which made the concert costly.

“Marami rin daw kasi sa nanood ng nasabing concert ay complimentary tickets though marami raw talagang bumili rin pero dahil daw sa mahal ng production cost, hindi diumano kumita ang mga producer nito,” Asis wrote.

Another promoter and investor of the concert said that they shelled out P275-M to make the concert happen.

Some fans of Alden and Ely questioned the report saying that if the reunion was a financial failure, there should be no investor to pay for their upcoming world tour.

As of writing, Ely Buendia and Alden have yet to give a comment if the reports were true.

After the interview of Bea Alonzo with ‘King of Talk’ Boy Abunda, the past statements of the actress against Gerald Anderson recirculated on social media.

It can be recalled that Bea said that it’s almost impossible for her to be friends again with her ex-boyfriend Gerald, taking a swipe at the actor for his lack of responsibility.

“I can never be friends with somebody I cannot trust and somebody who doesn’t take responsibility for his actions,” she said.

The issue started after Bea and Gerald broke up in 2019 and the actress started to accuse Gerald of ‘ghosting’ her or not even talking to her during the last days of their relationship.

According to her, she felt like a ‘garbage’ because Gerald just left her without even talking to her.

“I felt like garbage. I felt like I was worthless. So I guess iyon yung resentment ko, more than just the ghosting part. It was making me feel na I was worthless. And I believed it.” she stated.

“Without any reason why. I don’t even know what I did. I felt like it was unfair because kung may mali ako, sana naitama ko. Yung parang feeling ko it’s just having no respect for the relationship, for the three-year relationship,” she also said.

Netizens suspected that Julia Barretto was the reason Gerald left Bea but the actor denied it.

However, in 2021 Julia and Gerald confirmed that they were already in a relationship.

Gerald also denied that he ‘ghosted’ Bea and hoping that the actress would forgive him someday.

Jessy Mendiola and Luis Manzano finally revealed the face of their daughter ending the speculations by some ‘marites’ that there was something wrong with the baby.

In his post, Luis Manzano shared some photos of their daughter during a photoshoot to celebrate the latter’s one-month birth anniversary.

“Happy 1 month our Peanut,” Luis said.

It can be recalled that some netizens urged Luis and Jessy to post the photo of their daughter but the two refused to do it.

Jessy explained that they just wanted to ‘enjoy’ the baby first before posting her photos in public.

Because of the refusal of the couple, some netizens suspected that the baby was not normal.

However, the photos posted by Luis debunked the rumors.

The photos posted by Luis quickly gained thousands of likes on social media and most of the netizens couldn’t stop themselves to adore the baby.

“Oh my so Mestiza and pretty!!! Nice combination of you two. . . I guess more?! sayang ang lahi. Thank you for sharing your Little Peanut,” netizen Connie Manalac said.

“Angelic face. You’re so cutie and mestiza look. Happy one month Baby Rosie.” netizen Josie Lane commented.

“Super cute baby Peanut “Rose” Congratulations Daddy Luis and Mommt Jessy for a great blessings God bless your family,” netizen Concha Real Fayloga remarked.

It can be recalled that the singer denied that he was the man being shown in the said video that still circulating on the internet.

According to him, the video might be ‘edited’ by someone to make an issue about him.

He believed that it’s not impossible nowadays to make a convincing edited video.

“Ang hirap sagutin. Kasi ako, alam ko sa sarili ko na hindi ako yun.” said Janno. “Either sobrang kamukha ko. Hindi naman sobrang ano ng face ko, e. Madami akong kahawig o technically manipulated.”

“Madali na ngayon yun. Nakikita mo naman na sila Keanu Reeves, puwedeng ipatong. But ang problema, pinaniwalaan ng isang tao kung ano ang gusto niyang paniwalaan. Yun ang mahirap, e. Hindi makikinig.” he added.

Janno even admitted in 2019 that he was affected by the spread of the said video.

“Talagang medyo na-down ako, hindi ko naman itinatanggi yun.” the singer said.

As of writing, the individual who uploaded the said video has yet to be identified.

Model Deniece Cornejo gave a friendly reminder to the public to start learning how to plant onions because of their high price.

In her social media post, Cornejo shared an article on how to plant onions saying that people should learn how to plant it or else they might ‘cry’ by the end of 2023.

“Filipinos should start planting or else you’ll cry at the end of the year,” Deniece said.

A follower of Deniece agreed with her post.

“I totally agree with you. All must try to grow their own food to face future food shortage,” the netizen said.

It can be recalled that onions almost became a luxury in the Philippines because of their increasing price.

At its peak, it already reached 800 pesos per kilo, more expensive than the cost of meat.

Due to government efforts and the arrival of the harvesting season, the price of onion decreased to 300 pesos.

However, some people in the country still considered onions a luxury.

On January 21, 2021, a couple decided to use onions as their wedding bouquet instead of flowers.

Another couple then made onions as their wedding give away to their guests.

It can be seen that the guests couldn’t stop themselves from grabbing onions as many as they can.
