A hoax is Bourne, Charice and Jinkee get Photoshop potshots + more lowlights

Published: Jan 6, 2012 - 9:16am

 

 

1. AMID THE BOURNE LEGACY FRENZY, A CASTING CALL HOAX TARGETING PINOYS WITH HOLLYWOOD DREAMS IS HATCHED ONLINE. It's just part of the "Click without thinking" campaign, which, by the way, has a neverending "casting call."

 

 

2. COMEDIAN VIC SOTTO SAYS HE CAN'T BELIEVE HIS LATEST "ENTENG ENTRY" IN THE MMFF IS THE TOP BOX OFFICE DRAW. Congratulations! (We can't believe it either.)

 

 

3. THE 2012 NEW YEAR REVELRY IS TAGGED AS "THE DEADLIEST IN 20 YEARS" BY THE DOH. Did evolution skip some parts of the world?

 

 

4. CHED SAYS NURSING IS AN "OVERSUBSCRIBED" COURSE. Try telling this to the parents who force their kids to take the course.

 

 

5. RETIRED MAJOR GENERAL JOVITO PALPARAN IS ON THE RUN, REWARD FOR HIS CAPTURE IS NOW P1 MILLION. An ounce of paranoia is better than a whole lot of reward money. (We suppose he got away because everyone was so busy with Gloria.)

6. LOOKS LIKE ALL SYSTEMS ARE GO FOR CHIEF JUSTICE RENATO CORONA'S IMPEACHMENT TRIAL. We crown thee "Gloria of 2012."

 

 

7. POP STAR KATY PERRY AND COMEDIAN RUSSELL BRAND ARE GETTING DIVORCED. They lasted 14 months, which is a lot more than what Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries can say.

 

 

8. COMEDIENNE POKWANG ADMITS SHE HAS A CRUSH ON ABS-CBN NEWSMAN HENRY OMAGA DIAZ. Well, he is sort of cute in that "tito" kind of way.

 

 

9. NETIZENS CRY "PHOTOSHOP FOUL" WHEN CHARICE PEMPENGCO AND JINKEE PACQUIAO LOOK "MORE BEAUTIFUL THAN USUAL" ON MAGAZINE COVERS. They're damned if they "look ugly" and damned if they you look "too beautiful." (Ladies, just opt for the latter.)

 

 

10. THERE'S "TENSION" BETWEEN VICE GANDA AND AI-AI DE LAS ALAS. Just an observation: They look like they could be siblings.

    Malaki rin ang pagkukulang ng CHED sa usaping non-performing nursing schools. Ba't hinayaan nila na dumami na parang kabute ang mga nursing schools na walang maipasa kahit isang graduate nila sa nursing board exam?! CHED wasn't on the ball on this one. They should never have allowed fly by night nursing schools out to make a quick buck to operate in the first place. Now they have 400,000 graduates who can't practice what they spent 4, 5 years in college for. If CHED has the power to regulate such matters and didn't do anything about the problem for years, then they copped-out on that responsibility. Shame!

    How is Enteng's achievement as box office top grosser a lowlight? Is the film, it's quality and content of the story really that not worthy of this feat? The main reason why people watched it is to laugh, to be happy. In this aspect, the film has definitely delivered.
