Looks like blessings still come pouring in for artist, gamer and cosplay princess Myrtle Sarroza. In ceremonies at Fisher Mall in Quezon City this afternoon, she signed a new endorsement with popular apparel brand Guitar.
Executives from Guitar apparel and Sparkle artist management were also there to witness the event. Myrtle will be part of a brand campaign where she'll be seen wearing inner wear, sandos, and other products from Guitar. This coincided with a short program that they held today at the upper ground activity center appearance which she did for RetroCon. It was well attended by anime fanatics, gaming enthusiasts and cosplayers too so it was pretty busy because they took lots of pictures with patrons of the mall.
Myrtle by the way is also appearing in a new project which they are shooting now but will probably come out next year. She also talked more about her gaming gigs where she got to play and represent the country, something she wanted to do for a long time. It was for COD Warzone and told the press she's ready to do more of that soon. When asked about her relationship status, Myrtle gamely said that she'd rather have more time for her passion than be in relationships right now. She also plans to spend more time with the family because of the holidays and take a well deserved break this season.
If you want to know more about Guitar and her campaign, make sure you follow their social channels so once they come out with things she'll wear, you get updated first!
5 of some of the hunkiest guys in the Philippines in one film? Yes, it is possible! This comes as CALL ME PAPI will be shown on theaters this coming December 7th, nationwide! This stars Enzo Pineda, Lharby Policarpio, Royce Cabrera, Aaron Concepcion and Albie Casiño. It's a full blown barkada film, so if you've got friends that stick with you through thick or thin, you'll definitely find yourself in one of the characters.
A Filipino Barkada film, CALL ME PAPI stars Enzo Pineda, Lharby Policarpio, Royce Cabrera, Aaron Concepcion and Albie Casiño
Times are tough for films this year but they're raring to have this shown during the holidays. This is the opportune time to do it because this film was delayed because of pandemic restrictions, it took them over 3 years to finish it. It's a tale of 5 men from different walks of life, all of whom would be testing the bonds of friendship, and camaraderie. Have you ever heard of "friends being family you choose?", that's exactly how this one goes, but there's more to their individual struggles that will be told in the film.
Check out what happened during the press conference last week:
Seasoned actresses Katya Santos and Irma Adlawan will also be joining the cast. Anya Aguilar will play the girlfriend of Albie Casino in the film.
Enzo says "My character is a little artsy, but always end up with the wrong women, like some who are married, and struggled finding out what relationships are and if it does make him happy."
Royce says "I play Lito in the film. He is a hard worker, a call center agent, and does every odd job imaginable just to put food on the table."
Albie adds "I play the character of Bret, who's a waiter, a man who's going through life and survive daily struggles. His life is going to change once that he finds out that he has to take care of a baby, who's mom left behind."
Lharby plays Mario, a call center agent, who's a man's man. He takes care more of his peers rather than just himself. He doesn't go out much, and just stays at home after work. He also contributes for the expenses of his family, doing his best to help his papis all the time.
Aaron Concepcion plays Roy, a farmer, someone from the province who wanted to just help his family. There will be a twist on his professional career, which will affect not just his friends, but his family too.
Life may have been very complicated for these 5 guys, but it would be nice to see how the dynamics of their friendship would solve their problems, how one would be able to help one another or break down in shambles when you need them most. I hope this gives a glimpse on the lives of Filipino guys that are not toxic, and puts a lot of importance on their peers, to hopefully help each other out in times of trouble.
This will really be a huge challenge for production, and the cast to bring this message across. I pray they get noticed for awards as this has got a solid concept and story. This is also dedicated to the film's producer Shandii Bacolod who passed away a day before the shoot was done. This is also directed by Dr. Alvin Yapan. She made remarkable work especially for this project because she believed in the material, the cast too. Again, if you would like to see a feel good Filipino barkada film, give CALL ME PAPI a visit on theaters this coming December 7th. Bring your friends!
My favorite Thea Tolentino, Lianne Valentin, Liezel Lopez are now signed for stardom!
Several artists renewed ties and new ones joined Signed for Stardom, the annual Sparkle signing event for artists joining GMA. This includes Kylie Padilla, Kyline Alcantara, Ysabel Ortega, Shayne Sava, Derrick Monasterio, David Licauco, Angel Guardian, Thea Tolentino, Lianne Valentin, Liezel Lopez, Sophie Albert, Thia Thomalla, Sherilyn Reyes, Rodjun Cruz, EA Guzman, Juancho Trivino, Anjo Damiles, Luke Conde, Dustin Yu, Skye Chua, Kim Perez, Haley Dizon, Marco Masa, Princess Aliyah, Hailey Mendes, Jade Tecson, Jayson Gainza, Bianca Manalo. The event happened in the morning and we got there a bit in the late afternoon so a few of the stars left for work (and their locked in tapings) but we were pretty blessed to have been able to personally talk to some of them.
Then we also got to talk to Thea Astley and Kim Perez. Thea indulged us with her experience singing in Sunday shows whilst Kim talked more about what he could put on the table when acting challenges come soon.
Ysabel Ortega had us in on a lot of the things she's doing for Voltes V and the Miguel Tanfelix loveteam. Shayne Sava had a lot of exciting shows which she's enjoyed over the years, hence this particular signing with Sparkle was quite a welcome development for her.
As for new artists, there wasn't any shortage of that. Here's who to look forward to in the next few years of GMA shows!
This is just the start and I'm liking the way they talked to us during this short talk. They're quite promising and I hope it'll be a short amount of time to wait for them to do GMA dramas, fantasy or comedy shows in the channel. Imagine the amount of talent that GMA now has in their stable. I hope this starts pouring opportunities for them very soon.
It was fun to see the brightest stars of GMA at the SM Skydome a few days ago. Artists like the recently viral Andrea Torres, leading man Jeric Gonzales, Voltes V Legacy's Ysabel Ortega, Miguel Tanfelix, Radson Flores, Matt Lozano, Raphael Landicho, Martin del Rosario, the First Lady Sanya Lopez, businessman and actor Ken Chan all gave the fans a show they would never forget. It was a gathering of sorts, and they wanted the fans to experience how it is to be with their favorite celebrities.
Aside from that, this was also a venue to introduce new generation of Kapuso stars and the teens who just got signed by the network did not disappoint. Much of the hosting, dancing and singing numbers had them showcase what they have in store for future GMA shows. I love the Sparkada and the new ones who introduced themselves on stage, some extremely good looking ones too.

Fans won prizes through raffles and games that Kapuso stars also participated in. This event really made the celebrities accessible to their fans, as a way of thanks for all the years they supported their idols.
Make sure you follow Sparkle's social channels to get to know more of the new Kapuso stars and their new upcoming shows on the same network.
