iGMA: Raymond Gutierrez talks about StarStruck V
Source: Jason John S. Lim, gmanews.tv
After three seasons as a host of 'StarStruck,' it can be argued that Raymond Gutierrez has learned a lot sa competition na ito. And that's why we ask him what this season's contenders should do to make it big sa larangan ng showbiz.
Start pa lang ng season na ito, Raymond already promised that StarStruck V will be bigger than its predecessors.
"I'm very, very excited," pahayag ni Raymond nang interview noon. Dahil bukod sa mga bagong twists na darating from the show, Raymond is also reuniting with his StarStruck family. "I've been with them for how many seasons already, they're like a family to me." And, he tells us, it's also his first time na makatrabaho si Carla Abellana.
What else is Raymond excited about? Seeing how this season's contestants handle the pressures of being a star, being a celebrity, "and of course, the challenges that go along with it."
Sabi nga nila, every season of StarStruck is different. Hindi lang dahil may mga bagong twists na aabangan lagi, but also because ibang-iba lagi ang personalities ng mga nakakasama sa competition. "So exciting [din] how it's gonna be different creatively."
Isa sa mga bagong addition sa season na ito, compared to the seasons Raymond has been part of, is the mentorship program. Five experts with their own fields of expertise are coming together to give the finalists a top-notch education in singing, dancing, acting, grooming and image development.
Kaya naman nasabi ni Raymond na, "if I was a contestant, I would maximize the fact that I have these mentors around me. I'll ask as many questions as I can, and really try to absorb their advice, really try to listen. Kasi sila talaga 'yung nakaaalam sa bawat aspeto ng industriyang ito."
At dahil nga ito ang gagawin niya if he were in the contestants' place, ito rin ang advice niya sa mga remaining survivors ng StarStruck V—to ask. "Whether it's with acting, or with style, or with singing—anything that would hone their skills, to make sure they stand out."
"Kasi, at the end of the day, I'm sure they want to stand out." Raymond says that if these contestants really want to impress the judges, they should maximize the fact na mayroong silang mentors.
We asked him, kung siya ba ang papipiliin, ano ang gusto niyang makita sa future star na mahuhulma ng StarStruck V? Raymond said that the overall package is important sa competition, that the winner should not just have talent, but also wit. "Someone that can carry themselves in any situation, someone na kayang i-express 'yung sarili nila—‘yun 'yung hinahanap ko."
"And also dedication, determination, 'yung pagiging strong-willed. Importante ‘yun in becoming a star," he added.
Do our survivors have what it take to make it big, sa batayan ni Raymond? We'll find out as the competition continues on StarStruck V.
Catch Raymond hosting StarStruck V every Saturday, pagkatapos ng Pinoy Records, where he breaks down everything that has happened for the week.
You can also catch shorter updates from Mondays to Fridays sa StarStruck ShoutOut bago mag-Family Feud. And, of course, ang elimination nights ay live na live every Sunday night sa Studio V, pagkatapos ng Kap's Amazing Stories, with Dennis Trillo and Carla Abellana.

iGMA: Sunday’s SOP is Fully Charged!
Source: gmanews.tv
Sundays have just gotten a new jolt of electricity through 'SOP Fully Charged!' If you think 'SOP' ruled before, you're in for a new treat as the choice Sunday Concert TV pulls out all the stops.
Super energized ang SOP Fully Charged this Sunday, with major launches ng Full House at Ang Panday. If that's not enough, makiki-party din sina Darna (Marian Rivera), Ding (Robert Villar) at Pancho (Dennis Trillo). Mark Herras will be launching his newest dance album; and La Diva premieres their first music video as a group.
At kumpleto nang muli ang hosts na sina Regine Velasquez, Ogie Alcasid, Janno Gibbs and Jaya.
If you were surprised by the changes in last week's SOP, expect more in the coming weeks, including this Sunday's live episode.
Nang makapanayam namin ang bagong Program Manager nito na si Ramel "Rams" David, he explained some of the changes that have happened and will continue to happen.
Something new. "May segments, pero hindi regular 'yung artist doon sa segment. So 'yung segment, iba-iba 'yung puwedeng sumayaw, kumanta." ‘Yan ang sinabi sa amin ni Sir Rams about the new format.
At sa pagpasok ng new faces sa SOP, gaya nina Jake Vargas, Barbie Forteza, Joshua Dionisio, Alex Casto, Jay Perillo, Prince Stefan and Edgar Allan Guzman, there will also be more new segments according to him.
Pero dahil sa pagpasok ng mga bago, may ilang mga lumang mukha ang hindi na munang makikita; tulad nina Raymond Gutierrez and Rufa Mae Quinto.
Sir Rams tells us, "kasi, kung napansin niyo, kaunti na lang 'yung spiels. Tapos ibibigay na namin doon sa apat [na main hosts] talaga."
This is one of the ways na naisip ng SOP to make the show more energized—by continuously providing performance after performance, which means less talk.
"Tapos, mayroon kaming running LED, na instead na may ina-announce na 'happy birthday,' 'thank you,' doon na lang. To save time."
Bukod dito, SOP Fully Charged also introduces the 'One Time' segment. Sir Rams explains, "parang labanan ‘yan every month. So three weeks na may iba-ibang production numbers. Tapos sa fourth week, malalaman kung sino 'yung nanalo sa voting. So kung sino may gusto nung number, puwede kang mag-vote."
Last week it was Gian Magdangal. Can you guess who will go out of their comfort zone this week?
At ang huli sa mga na-reveal nang surprise? "Sa last hour namin, mamimigay kami ng premium items." Sir Rams said, "kaya SOP iLike e. Pwedeng mag-text, pwedeng mag-chat—interactive 'yung last hour."
Of course, the actual chat happens throughout the whole program. And you can join them this Sunday.
Regularly irregular. Another way of keeping viewers coming back is SOP Fully Charged's decision to rotate the younger performers every week, para hindi nasasawa ang mga viewers.
"Para we can give chance din to others," Sir Rams explained.
But of course, may ilang faces na hindi puwedeng mawala sa SOP—like Jolina Magdangal, Dennis Trillo, Heart Evangelista, Jan Nieto and La Diva. But Jolina and Jan will both be taking short breaks muna para sa isang grand image makeover. Pero sa SOP Fully Charged din mapapanood, of course.
Better preparations. With all these changes, siyempre kailangan sabayan rin ng mga performers ang continuous improvement na ginagawa ng show.
Kris Bernal, one of the re-launch performers, share with us: "Ngayon, mas mahaba na 'yung time ng rehearsals. Pinag-aaralan namin 'yung mga sayaw a week before the live episode. So ngayon medyo mas pulido, mas binabantayan 'yung bawat step, mas pinag-aaralan—at nagpupuyat kami."
Kaya naman mas matutuwa ang viewers sa mga mapapanood nila, according to Kris. "Kasi mas lalong pinagbubutihan at pinaghuhusayan ng lahat ng artista."
Dagdag pa niya, "talagang bawal ang walang energy."
SOP Fully Charged energizes your weekend viewing habits every Sunday after Joey's Quirky World. Don't miss this Sunday's episode as Lea Salonga takes the SOP concert stage for the very first time.

iGMA: Susan Roces talks about GMA's first-ever ChristmasSerye
Source: gmanews.tv
May handog na special series ang GMA 7 na naaangkop sa pagpahiwatig ng tunay na kahulugan ng Pasko. At sino pa ba ang nararapat manguna rito kung hindi ang Reyna ng Pelikulang Pilipino na si Ms. Susan Roces.
Sa pictorial ng first-ever Christmas series ng GMA Network kamakailan ng Sana Ngayong Pasko, nakapanayam ng press ang star ng ChristmasSerye na ito at balik-Kapuso na si Ms. Susan Roces.
"I'm just as excited. Noong unang in-offer sa akin ito, nabigyan na ako ng background tungkol sa kung ano ang istorya at kung ano ang role ko," related Ms.Susan. "It's a very heartwarming story—it's about family and the importance of memories together with the family. This is a very timely Christmas offering. I feel very honored. Karangalan ko na makasali sa first ChristmasSerye ng GMA-7. December 7 na siya."
At nang maibanggit namin na maraming fans ang excited na mapanood muli siya sa Kapuso network, sinuklian niya ito with her own excitement: "...para sa kanila at para din sa akin."
A family reunion
"Timely nga ang pagdating nitong serye na ito. Dahil kung ano ang ginagawa ng pamilya, kapag nagse-celebrate ng Pasko, ay siya rin gagawin noong araw na 'yon sa serye," declared Ms. Susan.
"Katulad ng karamihan sa ating mga pamilya rito sa Pilipinas at sa buong mundo marahil. 'Yun ang araw ng reunion…reunion para sa mga magkakamag-anak na magkita-kita," she said.
Pagpapatuloy pa niya, "Para sa mga apo na puntahan ang kanilang lola at magmano at mamasko. Gawing Pilipino. Ganun namin sine-celebrate ang Pasko."
Para kay Ms. Susan, importante pa rin ang handaan tuwing Pasko. Kaya sinisigurado rin niya na sa sarili niyang mag-anak na personal pa rin niyang pinaghahandaan ito.
"Ibinabagay mo iyan sa oras ng pagdating ng mga inaasan mong kamag-anak. Kung bata, siyempre ibinabagay mo ang mga putahe dun sa mga pagkain na gusto nila," she stated. "Pero siyempre, nakagawian na natin ang Pasko ay laging may hamon, may queso de bola, may bibingka, at puto bungbong."
Remembering Da King
Ngunit ang isa sa mga pinakaimportate kay Ms. Susan sa panahon ng Pasko ay ang pag-alala niya sa mahal niyang asawa, ang Hari ng Pelikulang Pilipino, na si Fernando Poe, Jr. who passed away last 2004.
"Lagi naman 'yun. Tuwing sasapit ang kanyang [death] anniversary—that is December 14—ay dinadalaw namin siya," she explains. "Personal choice ko ay sa simbahan kung saan kami ikinasal. Pagkatapos dadalawin ko siya [sa cemetery]. Ganun lang, ganun lang ka-simple."
At para naman sa mga fans ni Ms. Susan na hindi pa rin natitinag ang supporta sa kanya, simpleng mensahe ang kanyang ibinigay: "Maraming salamat sa napakagandang pagtanggap ninyong lahat sa akin. Karangalan ko."
Ang iba pang makakasama ni Ms. Susan sa ChristmasSerye na ito ay sina Christopher de Leon, Gina Alajar, Maxene Magalona, JC de Vera, Ynna Asistio, at JC Tiuseco.
Kaya gawing espesyal ang panahon na ito by watching Sana Ngayong Pasko starting December 7.
