Taylor Swift 'Humiliates' John Mayer Thru Dear John Lyrics?


Dear John With Lyrics

“Dear John, I see it all now it was wrong / Don’t you think nineteen’s too young to be played with? / Your dark twisted games when I loved you so / I should’ve known” -- these were the pretty strong words Taylor Swift put on her single 'Dear John', which is included in her 'Speak Now' album. 

The song is rumored written by Country Singer & Composer Taylor Swift for her ex-lover Singer/ Composer John Mayer. But Mayer himself kinda confirmed it or should I say, he believed that Taylor’s new song is really meant for him. 

Because in an interview with Rolling Stone Magazine, Mayer says he was “humiliated” by Taylor’s song. ”I didn’t deserve it. I’m pretty good at taking accountability now, and I never did anything to deserve that. It was a really lousy thing for her to do,” 

“I was really caught off-guard, and it really humiliated me at a time when I’d already been dressed down. I mean, how would you feel if, at the lowest you’ve ever been, someone kicked you even lower?” Mayer added.

Well, Well, Well, with this new rift between Swift & Mayer, I remember someone had said before that "Be careful...If you break Taylor Swift's heart. You’ll be on her next song for sure!' and this is what actually happening to John Mayer.

Anyways, the song sounds great. So, there's no reason for Mayer to feel humiliated. Feel humiliated if Taylor made a song for you and it sounds suck? Right? :)

New video shows Claudine Barretto's camp first hurt Mon Tulfo



MANILA, Philippines - Close to three weeks after the melee between Ramon Tulfo and the group of Raymart Santiago and Claudine Barretto, TV5 got hold of a copy of a video purportedly showing that it was the latter who first hurt the columnist and TV5 host. 

The video shows a man in a pink shirt who was talking to Tulfo. The man was beside a woman in pink tops and white shorts, attire that is similar to what Barretto was wearing during the May 6 incident at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport in Pasay City. 

The man in pink shirt was seen on the video hitting Tulfo in the head with his left hand. 

The scene reportedly took place before the melee.

Tulfo had said he was simply trying to pacify Barretto, Santiago's wife, who was allegedly verbally abusing a ground crew over her offloaded luggage, when Santiago turned on him. 

Tulfo said he had arrived from Davao onboard a Cebu Pacific flight when he chanced upon Barretto scolding the ground crew of Cebu Pacific.

Tulfo said he was taking pictures of Barretto while also trying to pacify her when Santiago came up to him and allegedly tried to get his cellphone. He refused, and he said that was when all the trouble started. 

The Santiagos have kept saying the amateur video earlier uploaded on youtube [ watch here ], showing their group ganging up on Tulfo, told only the second half of the story, because, they claimed, before this happened, it was Tulfo who first hit them, prompting the group to retaliate.

Sharon Cuneta is on a career suicide, says Direk Joey Reyes



Last week I blogged about celebrities who stopped using twitter because they can't anymore stand people bashing them. [ read story here ] Pero unlike Angel Locsin, Sarah Geronimo and Kris Aquino, Sharon Cuneta, on the other hand, is still using twitter even if she always received hate messages through the said social media platform.

Hindi natin masisisi si Sharon kung magpatuloy siya sa pagsagot sa mga bashers niya. Kasi she's only defending herself and siguro hindi niya ma-take na hayaan lang ang mga taong ito na siraan siya at magsabi ng masasamang salita laban sa kanya.

But Sharon should still consider to quit on twitter because wala siyang mapapala sa mga basher niya samantalang ang mga basher niya ay may mapapala sa kanya dahil aminin man natin o hindi... ang sarap ng feeling na nag-rereply (o pumapatol) sa tweet mo ang isang Megastar. Right?

PEP.ph (Philippine Entertainment Portal)

Isa si Direk Jose Javier Reyes sa mga nagpahayag ng reaksiyon hinggil sa latest Twitter issue na kinasasangkutan ng Megastar na si Sharon Cuneta at isang PR-executive ng ABS-CBN.

Ang nasabing tweet ay may kinalaman sa anak ni Sharon na si KC Concepcion, kung saan inihayag ng network PR official, bilang reaksiyon sa isang tagapagtanggol ni KC, ang umano'y nalalaman niyang "baho" ng anak ni Sharon.

Maraming magkakasunod na tweets ni Sharon ang naging "sagot" sa alegasyon ng taga-network.

Ikinalungkot ng direktor na si Joey Reyes ang pangyayaring ito

"Sobrang nalulungkot ako," simula ni Direk Joey na nag-message sa PEP.ph sa pamamagitan ng social networking site na Facebook.

GMA7 & TV5 Merger Set on November ?!



I was following this story since the rumors arise about possible buyout of GMA Network by Manny V. Pangilinan, aka MVP. Because I’ am interested on what will happen on the TV industry if the buy-out push through or if the merger happens. 

Will MVP can sustain the hold of GMA-7 on Mega Manila and soon dethrone ABS-CBN on the National level. And Will TV5 can rise from being no.3 TV Network in the Philippines and placed ABS-CBN on third. Or the exact opposite will happen that ABS-CBN will still dominate the National TV Arena and will eventually snatch the lead on Mega Manila from GMA-7?

Well, we can only see what will happen after the grand merger happens on November of this year.

Funfare with Ricky Lo
PhilStar.com

This has to be a blind item as of now. Before the year ends, probably end of November, a giant merger will be announced in a grand (as in “fabulous!”) style.

Angel Locsin, Kris Aquino & Sarah Geronimo stopped using Twitter. Reason?



Twitter (and Facebook) is the way of celebrities to communicate and interact to their fans/followers on the web. This social-media platform made the celebrities reachable by their fans. 

But celebrities like Angel Locsin, Kris Aquino and Sarah Geronimo already quit tweeting. Why?

Best Actress Angel Locsin (@143redangel), who already has 1,866,342 Million followers, last tweet is dated March 21, 2012. Her tweet warned her followers to be careful on her poser (I43redangel). Nasabi ito ni Angel dahil napagkamalan siya ni @aomarget na nagsabi ng masamang salita tungkol kay PBB Ex-Housemate Biggel. Ngunit, hindi napansin  ni @aomarget na ang poser ni Angel na may Twitter Account na @I43redangel ang nag-tweet nun. #careless@aomarget_istheCULPRIT.

Popstar Princess Sarah Geronimo was the first who stopped using twitter. Her last tweet is dated October 2010. She quit using twitter during the controversial news about her, Rayver Cruz and Cristine Reyes. To date, Sarah has 1,165,558 Million followers.

Queen of All Media Kris Aquino, meanwhile, stopped tweeting last March 16, 2012, 5 days before Angel Locsin quits twitter. Her reason is her haters who continually bashing her. Kris has now 1,612,897 Million followers.

Jessica Sanchez & Phillip Phillips Made It to American Idol 11 Finale



16-years old Jessica Sanchez and 21-years old Phillip Phillips made it to the American Idol 11 Finale which will be held on May 22, 2012 (May 23: Manila Time).

I was happy and a bit shocked this morning when I heard the news. 

Happy because Jessica who also has Filipino descent reached the show finale and vying for the Idol Title. (feel so proud that Filipino blood is also running in my veins). :)

Shocked because Idol Judges Favorite and Front-runner Joshua Ledet has been voted off in the American Idol Season 11. I don't like Joshua but yesterday I predicted that it's Phillip who will be eliminated, which I based it on their performance last night. [watch/read here]

Well, Phillip should feel so lucky tonight because it's not him that bids goodbye. Congrats Jessica and Phillip! 

Watch the Elimination Video below:

Phillip Phillips & Joshua Ledet Performances on American Idol 11 Top 3 Show



Beggin' - Phillip Phillips

Phillip Phillips sang  “Beggin” by Madcon on the American Idol 11 Top 3 show. He also performed “Disease” by Matchbox 20 and “We’ve Got Tonight” by Bob Seger.

Imagine - Joshua Ledet

Joshua Ledet sang “Imagine” by John Lennon on the American Idol 11 Top 3 show. He also sing “I’d Rather Go Blind” by Etta James and “No More Drama” by Mary J. Blige.

My Prediction.
Based on their performances tonight, I think there's no more reason for Phillip Phillips to stay longer on the competition. Yeah, it's given that he is a good singer, great guitarist and charming - a total package I must say, but , I think, his performance tonight is not enough for him to stay and go to the finals. 

"My All" - Jessica Sanchez on American Idol 11 Top 3 Show



Jessica Sanchez performed Mariah Carey's song, "My All" during the American Idol Top 3 Performance Show

I must say, Jessica really sounds like Mariah. Great song choice for her! And If you will ask me, This performance of her is my favorite. It edge out her "I Don't Want A Miss A Things" [watch here] and "Ill Be There" performances tonight.

 Judges Thoughts:

Randy Jackson said “Yo, I mean, that was absolutely beautiful. We tell people never to do Mariah, but I’m tellin’ you what, that was one of the best Mariah songs sung on TV.”

Steven Tyler said “When you sing, you make people hang on your every note. I hope you get used to encores.”

Jennifer Lopez said “Hard song. You did it so beautifully and you did it in your own way.”

"I Don't Want To Miss A Thing" - Jessica Sanchez on American Idol 11 Top 3 Show


I Don’t Want To Miss A Thing - Jessica Sanchez

Jessica Sanchez sang “I Don’t Want To Miss A Thing” by Aerosmith during the American Idol 11 Top 3 performance show. 

I really love Jessica but I don't like this performance of her. The beginning was boring. Albeit she made a moment in the end, that's not enough I think. 

I'll Be There - Jessica Sanchez
Jessica's last song for American Idol 11 Top 3 performance show is a Jackson 5 classic, "I'll Be There". It was good not great but not bad atleast for my taste! :)

Support Jessica Sanchez.
If you’re in the US, you can vote for Jessica Sanchez by calling any of these numbers:
