Limitless Star Julie Anne San Jose is Your 2025 Ginebra Calendar Girl

 

Change is good, and this goes the same with your Limitless Star Julie Anne San Jose. She's the newest Ginebra Calendar Girl set for 2025. She joins a number of illustrious women who have graced the calendar which started 34 years ago, a tradition for the well loved brand. Julie has never done something like this, and she wanted to show a different side. She did looked quite confident and braver donning several couture pieces meant to represent the various drinks that the company carries.

She also didn't just appear and say hi, she came out with things blazing, putting in apt song and dance numbers, we all felt like it was a full blown concert after every reveal. In my years of covering stuff like this, I've never seen something like this before. She was also given her own bottle with JULIE ANNE on the label, it was only being given during the event to commemorate it. She was very happy about the calendars and how it turned out, she was just so relieved she could tell people about it now since they've been working on it since the beginning of the year and had to be mum about its existence, so they could have a grand reveal!

Check out this video we have of Julie Anne San Jose and the event. She was absolutely gorgeous!

I love Julie Anne San Jose, and I feel this was the best time to put out photos of her prime. Wouldn't you agree?!

Stars Shine at PinoyDropBall Launch

If it ain't in my site, I usually say it didn't happen. This time, it did. A few stars came out to play at the recent Pinoy Drop Ball Launch in Grand Hyatt in BGC. They weren't joking too when they said they'll provide entertainment because one by one, they came on stage and proved why the Filipino artists are a force to be reckoned with.

The country's sweetheart Maine Mendoza, clad in a pretty purple jumpsuit said hi to the audience, took more than the usual photos with BingoPlus&DigiPlus executives as they launch the new game Pinoy Drop Ball. It's based on the nostalgic one you used to do in fiesta perya, and is said to be an advancement they accomplished ahead of the rest. This will now be part of the line of home grown games they have in their platform, but the entertainment value they promised didn't end there.

Aside from the appearance of Maine Mendoza, they also had one of the nation's hottest PPOP group ALAMAT. They're from different parts of the country, which would be a good place to have them use the platform, but then again, it's available globally so that's a given. Aside from that, they got one of my favorite artists Julie Anne San Jose, who literally sang across the room and proved why she's one of the country's most powerful singers. They have measures and quality assurance for the things they use with the games, fair play is expected as they are duly licensed too. Their platform is certainly promising, if you see its worth, go ahead and do it today!

Scenes from GMA's SPARKLE SPELL 2023

If you've been seeing them all over social media, here's a glimpse on what happened last October 22 at the SPARKLE SPELL, the heavily anticipated and star studded Halloween party of Sparkle GMA Artist Center. Donned in their Halloween costumes, they went to a grand venue called XYLO at the Palace in BGC.

Mind you, each individual GMA star actually thought about what they wanted to wear, getting to fulfill their Halloween fantasies for one night, much to the amusement of their peers, GMA executives and the media. They all got to the Black Carpet where hosts Martin Javier, Shuvee Etrata, Migs Almendras and gorgeous Janeena Chan were tasked to ask about what they wore in detail that evening. This was all broadcasted in Sparkle's social channels such as TikTok, Facebook and on YouTube. It was the talk of the town, and got Sparkle Spell 2023 in the day's trending topics as fan groups also cheered on their favorite stars that night.

Of course, the night wouldn't be complete without seeing Sparkle's brightest like 5 Breakups and a Romance star Alden Richards. For those, who are BarDa fans, they came in their best Anime and GOT characters, pretty good to see them in one place (be sure to also watch their show!). Aside from them, your favorites Julie Anne San Jose (who just came back from Israel OMG), Kyline Alcantara, Voltes V's Jamie  Ysabel Ortega and good looking Miguel Tanfelix (Mad Hatter) plus the sexy and sultry Sanya Lopez who just went in the venue and had fun with their co-stars.

Much of them who really made an effort didn't go empty handed as various awards were given to them. I AM Worldwide gave Miguel Tanfelix and Jillian Ward (aside from the Urban Smile Most Spooktacular Smile Award) the I AMazing Looks of the Night. Sanya got Juju Glow's Enchantingly Fresh Star of the Night, while Kyline Alcantara got the O Wow! Outfit from food brand Oishi (and yes she looked awesome!). Teen loveteam Sofia Pablo and Allen Ansay had a Barbie and Ken themed costume, which got them TikTok's Crowd Favorites. Miguel and Ysabel took the Fabulously Scary Costumes of the Night award with their Alice in Wonderland themed costumes, it was a fitting Voltes V Legacy reunion out there too. Real life lovers Rayver Cruz and Julie Anne San Jose did a Scooby Doo number, it was fun to se Fred and Daphne personified (if you grew up watching the series, they did good!).

Using his muscles to good use, Derric Monasterio got into character and did Achilles, complete with a shield, sword, leather and a live horse OMG, which also won him Black Carpet Stunner Award that night. That was super deserved!

Giving multiple Stars of the Night awards to Barbie Forteza, Liezel Lopez, Martin Del Rosario, Joaquin Domagoso, and the incomparable Sassa Gurl was just a lovely gesture, they did the work with the outfits they made and yes, with a socially relevant statement on some of them, it was all so impressive! Voltes V Legacy stars Miguel Tanfelix, Ysabel Ortega, Radson Flores, Matt Lozano and Raphael Landicho planned well wearing the Alice in Wonderland themed outfits, making them a fitting winner for the Sparkle Stars of the Night Award. They did their research well, and seriously did crazy good!

This event wouldn't be possible without the help of the countless presenters and sponsors like Oishi, Juju glow, Caltrate, Urban Smiles, IAM Worldwide, Avignon Clinic, JLA Seafoods, Sweet Comfort Events Management (who coordinated the actual event), TikTok Philippines, the fabulous Gideon Hermosa and his team from the House of Hermosa, Niceprint Photos (where these shots came from). They also send their thanks to Air Asia, Cebuana Lhullier, Clinique, Premier Drip, Kemans, Merlion Entertainment and Philip Stein, everyone who made Sparkle Spell 2023 a resounding success!

Thanks for letting us see SPARKLE SPELL this 2023! :) This was really so much fun! So, which one was your favorite?

The A-Team, JULIEBee, Gary V and Jollibee

Just attended the "Tara nat sumayaw, sumaya!" event of Jollibee this afternoon at the Zero Studios in Quezon City. It's the home studio of world renowned A-Team who's done remarkably well representing the country in dance championships and they had us try the Share the Joy dance which is going viral on social media. They have also recently launched the #ShareTheJoy video featuring Gary Valenciano and Julie Anne San Jose which you can also watch on their official channels.

The video actually was fun and felt like it brings memories. They showcased Jollibee's 45 years in it, and the experience of sharing the joy here in the Philippines and the rest of the world!

 

Meanwhile, here's what happened during the dance workshop.

 

After the short dance workshop by the A-Team, we were then surprised by the appearance of Asia's Limitless Star Julie Anne San Jose which everyone called JulieBee when she came in. She came in a red jacket and pants, perfect for the endorsement! I loved how she danced the Share the Joy song with Jollibee that afternoon, she was also super generous in letting everyone take a selfie with her especially with the moms and kids that day.

I hope you get to #SharetheJoy with Julie Anne and Jollibee by dancing the same song, the actual dance number is on the video I shared so I get that you'll have a good time following the simple steps they made. It's quite easy, and posting it on social channels is highly encouraged! You should also watch the actual video on Jollibee's socials to get the reason why they are doing this on their 45th year!

KEN CHAN Wishes To Work with JULIE ANNE SAN JOSE and GLAIZA DE CASTRO Soon

Our boy Ken Chan is doing mighty good with his shows and now he's taking his newest single QUARANFLINGS in the promo route. This will be launched in June 12 on AOS, but the track has already been released in social channels and streaming sites so if you're looking for something you could relate to go ahead and listen to it now.

Ken Chan says "We didn't have anything to do but survive during the pandemic, but I think the only person I have had the pleasure of being with during the whole thing was Rita Daniela. For that I am grateful, and yes, there are a lot of people who messaged me but if I've met them, I treat them as friends. During the pandemic, there are a lot of people who have had the experience of having a relationship, and I think they'll be able to relate to Quaranflings. This is a song composed by Lolito Go and produced by Paulo Agudelo under GMA Music."

He adds "I know Rita and I would really have a good following, I am looking forward for more projects with her but there's a good time for that. We both know that we should work with other artists. If I was going to work with other actresses, I wished for Bianca and it came true for Mano Po. Next time, I want to work with some of my closest friends like Julie Anne San Jose or Glaiza De Castro. To clear, I just picked up that quote I tweeted a couple weeks ago on Google, I think I forgive easily." 

Here is Ken's latest single

Here's our blog conference this morning:

With his wish to go back to AOS and soon to work with Julie Anne San Jose or Glaiza De Castro, Ken Chan will surely be a remarkable leading man on GMA and their new shows. Aside from being busy with businesses he's put up in the last few years, he's continuing to make music, to hopefully release more next year or late this year.

Julie Anne San Jose is LIMITLESS

Music encompasses location, religion, almost anything in the world. It brings people closer, it takes us to a journey even without stepping foot out of our homes and is... limitless.

One of GMA's prized singer and artists, Julie Anne San Jose embarks on finding herself in the regions less traveled in the country. Watch her in this musical trilogy called LIMITLESS.

Julie says "This all started when Direk Paolo Valenciano and I had a conversation and asked if we could do a concert. I had a concept in mind, Synergy and GMA wanted to promote tourism, places in the Philippines and reconnect with people across the archipelago. It just came to a point when we didn't know yet what project to call this, is this a concert or movie, we had so much brainstorming done. When it was presented to me, Paolo thought he misses interaction, this pandemic put us through a lot of changes especially in our industry. Artists had to express ourselves through art and different mediums, I also wanted to offer something different, I loved the concept hence this trilogy, do it in different locations in Luzon, Visayas, Mindanao and discover new things about myself and this country. I am so thankful to have been able to be given an opportunity to do this. It's also my first time to do something like this, and it's worth it! We haven't really shot much of the trilogy, but we'll do it. I myself have been surprised at what I saw, at the places I've never been to and I'm excited to show what it looks like here. You'll see culture, traditions, things that you see in history books and do it in real life. You'll feel their warmth, the opportunity to go there was really awesome! We want to reconnect, we want to inspire, hopefully through my music they would feel that you can be happy. I am excited for you to see all these. When this was pitched to me, it was like having a panic attack, I felt I really wanted this, it was perfect for me because I was preoccupied with things when I travel for work and just go back home, but here, I go to different places, I enjoyed this so much because it didn't feel like work. It's like we're putting on record what we felt and experienced, we waited for a long time for this project, we felt we needed it, it was like a break from the city and it was so nice there!"

 

If you opt for the VIP tickets, you can get Breathe Heal Rise shirts that will come with your tickets. Tickets for this particular show can be purchased on GMANetwork.com/synergy (and also the answers to your questions) so register early and get one.

JULIE ANNE SAN JOSE and DAVID LICAUCO Brews Romance in HEARTFUL CAFE

 

It was a fun evening to be with Pop star Julie Anne San Jose and the hunky David Licauco. They're having a new show startingthis Monday called Heartful Cafe and it was supposed to be shown on GMA News TV a couple months back, but they wanted it to be done on prime time now and on the main GMA channel, this is good news no?

Julie says "I am so glad this transitioned to GMA and is going to be shown in prime time. It only means that it would be shown to even more people, and I'm excited for them to see our story."

David says "This character is not so far from who I am in real life, I am a jokester, a simply guy who wants to have fun (a little bit of a player), just a slight difference in the family. But we almost do have the same characteristics."

Julie plays Heart who is a matchmaker in the series. David on the other hand is a little bit of a playboy, a little fresh and good looking so he gets away with trouble if he gets into it. We can't spoil much of the story because it would be better if you watch the show, here's part of our interview with them this evening. I like the other characters  portrayed by Jamir Zabarte, Victor Anastacio, Aira Mariano, Zonia Mejia and they will make this a little sweeter because they have their own pairs in the show.

Make sure you watch GMA Telebabad this Monday! It'll be so good you'll have a cup or more servings of this sow.

Lee Jeans Taps Julie Anne San Jose as Endorser

I’m one of the thousands of fans of Julie Anne San Jose. She’s been working hard to hone her craft, her impressive pipes no longer just serves the PH soil, but even in the US and other countries. I have loved a few of her singles, hard not to take notice and now she’s going to be donning LEE Jeans. She is officially their newest female ambassador.

Here is what happened during the press conference:

Now go on ahead and get those Lee Jeans while it’s hot. I love the things she wore during the shoot, especially the corset looking one and the one with the laid ruffles. This isn’t the last of what Julie Anne and Lee Jeans is getting, they’re going to do more campaigns which fans should all watch out for very soon!

The Clash Season 2 Starts on the 21st!

Starting on September 21, The Clash will be back on TV with new hosts, tons of singers from all around the country. During the screening, they had Golden Cañedo sing in front of the media. This is their second season, and Golden shares “A lot of things have happened and it was awesome to have been able to get a lot of things done like singing and acting. I have always wanted to work with Ms. Lani and hopefully we can do it in the US. For the contenders, I only thought of it as a way to achieve my dreams, so I could help my family. I thank God for giving me this gift!” and oh man has she got pipes!

Rayver says “When I transferred, I got to do singing as it is one of my passions. I have been doing a lot in the past years, I am very confident I guess, I want to learn other things other than dancing. It’s an opportunity that my Mom would be proud with. This is my first year but I got a lot of friends now because of GMA. My songs just got opportunities because of Studio 7 and there, we have a lot of production numbers, she teaches me a lot of things.”

Julie adds “When this was offered to me it was a few days after my concert, I was so happy and blessed because I wanted to be part of season 2. I also am excited to work with the artists and Golden who won Season 1. We all were in Studio 7 and this is something I looked forward to. I don’t think we will be performing in Clash but we might, perhaps in Studio7, it will be less of us and more spotlight with the contestants. I never really had a hard time working with Rayver because he’s a pro, recently, we had workshops so we could build rapport and work on it. Our goal is to make people understand stuff, he delivers quite good.”

Christian Bautista says “I wanna be moderate, in the first few rounds, but will be more strict in the later rounds. They know they have to learn everything they can, in moderation. In the auditions, it can be young and old, pro and not, but in live performances, it could turn out bad and it really depends on their vocal quality. There will be differences, we will be twists like our first episode but in different times. We all look for opportunities and GMA has given us all acting, dancing and singing opportunities.“

Lani Misalucha says “We don’t show our favorites because it changes when they think about it, they might not give their all if that happens. We see potential, but when they get matched with good ones you’ll have second thoughts, and the genre might be same, we might choose a cute one, joke!”

Rita adds “Julie anne and Rayver will be at the clash arena but Ken and I will be talking to the contestants. We will have to dive into their lives a little before and after the competition. You will hear more of us before they are introduced.”

Golden says “I have a lot of things happen to my career, my Studio7 stint, my guestings, I have my friends also getting their own singles out and I am so proud of what is happening. I wish to be able to sing also with the next Clash Season 2!”

The Clash Season 2 will air at 7PM right after Pepito Manaloto. You better watch it because it’s going to be exciting! All 4 You The Clash Concert is also happening October at the Arcadia Performing Arts Center in LA.

Julie Anne San Jose Sings the Divas at The Theatre at Solaire

Loving Julie Anne San Jose is easy because the darn girl is just so good at what she does, may it be singing or dancing, you’ve seen that in my social media posts. A few weeks ago, she had a concert in Cebu and Mindanao with Christian Bautista via The Sweetheart and the Balladeer. That was a very successful one and this July 20, she’s letting it all out at The Theatre at Solaire on her new concert “Julie Sings The Divas!”. A tall order, but she’s good that you can hand her a phone book and sing it like crazy.

In this concert, she’ll be doing performances based on songs by timeless icons Barbra Streisand, Whitney Houston, Celine Dion and Mariah Carey. She will be performing with an orchestra (UP Arco String Orchestra) under the baton of Maestro Danny Tan of UP . This is something she has wished for in the past and her new approach will certainly delight audiences who want to see her shine in this stage.

Danny Tan her Musical Director says “We produced this as we knew how much Juloe is talented, from her audition in Fairview where she sung divas already, to her youthful pop persona these past few years, we want to showcase. She is a musician’s dream, she doesn’t go flat, very nice to listen to and she picks up songs fast, she craves to learn more. Now she knows beats, she knows notes, it is the reason why it is a dream to work with her. She satisfies you as a musician. She does beyond expectations.”

Direk Louie Ignacio says “We want our diva a chance to be in this kind of concert, we are pushing because we love her. We produced this big show just for her. She is only our lone diva in the network and she deserves this all! It will not be effect ridden, more classy and orchestration will be there, our opening will be a surprise. The musicality of it, we will offer to the audience, including her really good outfits and gowns. Julie has a different flavor from all our superstars, she prepares, she does her work and a nega diva, she’s a diva but doesn’t know she is. She is very humble.”

Julie says “I had to learn new songs, I felt this is challenging and exciting because the of the different arrangements we are doing with the songs. It is my first time performing with Arnel Pineda and a couple of people from the clash (a surprise). I think I have to sing around 23 songs after picking from around a hundred. I am really having a hard time with the Celine songs, plus the one from Lara Fabian, I don’t know how I will attack it but it’s hella different renditions. We have been doing the leg work with my vocal coach and I am preparing, the version will surely surprise the audience. I want to make my own mark in the industry and not just copying someone else, it’s the authenticity, as myself and as an artist. I don’t know how to feel but I am grateful, to be able to sing, to hunger exploring my capabilities and the process that goes with it. I want pieces that challenge me, I don’t do safe ones, I want to gain knowledge and hopefully impart it with the next generation of singers. I will be doing multi tracks, you should watch out for that.”

“I don’t care about my detractors, I will only make them my motivation to do better, but for those who love me, I promise to give everything that you have given me back. I appreciate all your efforts and I hope in my own way I would be able to do that.” 

She will also be joined by Journey front man Arnel Pineda and the UP Concert Chorus, some world class talent right there. This is produced by Sunny Side Up Productions and GMA Network in cooperation with Solaire Resort and is Directed by Louie Ignacio. Again this will be on July 20, at 8pm. You may get tickets at Ticketworld.com.ph or via 8919999.

You might want to see this one, a Julie Anne like never before!

A Stellar Vivo V11 Launch

Vivo just launched their flagship phone the Vivo V11 a few weeks ago and the occasion didn’t really disappoint when it comes to stars who were at the event that evening. Aside from the presentations, it was the well loved artists who came in and gave their thoughts about the phone who captured the attention of the public. This launch wouldn’t be stellar without their brand ambassadors. Check them out!

Julie Anne San Jose opened the show with a grand song number enjoyed even by the Chinese executives and press people

Asia’s RnB sensation KZ Tandingan was mobbed during her song number, some people even asked for video greets while she was singing.. she handled that with grace. She listens to her music using her trusty Vivo phone and it never got her in trouble even abroad!

Tall boy Darren Espanto got all the artists and country manager for Vivo in one shot. I wonder how much networth they had in this frame LOL

Super popular love team Maymay Entrata and Edward Barber gave their #MayWard fans a reason to cheer. Those kilig moments on stage was just enough to drive them crazy.

Iñigo Pascual smiled and swooned the ladies that evening. Really good singer!

Vern and Verniece Enciso all look glam and fashionable. They’ll show you how it’s done on their OOTD’s

Maris Racal, looking all so gorgeous in the holding room. Perfect time for an OOTD shot too.

Loisa Andallo dropped like a bombshell with her Vivo V11 on her hand

Daniel Padilla still got the blues
