Guns and Roses pilot episode beats Amaya in nationwide ratings

"Guns and Roses" starring Robin Padilla and Bea Alonzo had a successful pilot last night, June 6, by posting a rating of 29.9% beating its rival show, the Marian Rivera-epicserye "Amaya", based on the data provided by Kantar Meda / TNS.

It ranked 2nd over-all, placing behind "100 Days To Heaven" with 32.9% rating.

ABS-CBN's rating figures last Monday were so much lower than last week, especially when compared with last Friday's ratings when "Mara Clara" aired its finale and scored its highest rating ever, with 43.4%.

Angel Locsin, Marian Rivera give way to Sam Pinto on FHM 100 Sexiest Women 2011 Poll, May 20 tally

Sam Pinto grabs the lead on FHM Philippines 100 Sexiest Women 2011 Poll based on its latest voting tally as of Friday, May 20.

Marian Rivera, who occupied the top spot during the last 3 weeks, dropped to 3rd this week and taking over is not Angel Locsin, who stays on the 2nd spot, but it's last week's 3rd placer Sam Pinto.

If Sam Pinto ends up with FHM Sexiest Woman 2011 title, it's definitely a major major achievement to beat Angel, Marian and even Cristine Reyes. Last year, Sam made her FHM Poll debut at #32.

That's actually the only major change in the poll since last week, as the remaining ladies in the Top 10 are still the same, with Valerie Concepcion climbing 2 slots, overtaking Jennylyn Mercado and Ellen Adarna.

Here's the partial tally of the FHM Philippines' 100 Sexiest Women in the World 2011 Poll, as of May 20, 2011:

Marian Rivera binatokan si Manny Pacquiao sa Party Pilipinas, May 15 episode

Marian Rivera and Manny Pacquiao "batok" incident on Party Pilipinas last Sunday, May 15, is still being talked about as people continue to debate if it was just okay or not for Marian Rivera to do it to Manny Pacquiao.

Manny Pacquiao who won the fight against Sugar Shane Mosley last May 8 was given a homecoming party on GMA 7's Sunday musical variety show "Party Pilipinas" where he performed 6 songs (3 English and 3 Tagalog) along with Ogie Alcasid, Janno Gibbs and Lito Camo.

After his performances, Marian Rivera, Manny's co-star in "Show Me Da Manny", made a surprise appearance and there the "batok" incident happened.

Here's a screenshot of what happened:

Marian really hit Manny hard, but for close friends, I think it wasn't a big deal.

But for some viewers, they think it was kinda not proper to do it on live national TV, most especially to a Congressman and Pound-for-Pound King like Manny Pacquiao, who's well-respected and being idolized by many people around the world.

Here's a video of Manny Pacquiao's guesting on Party Pilipinas last Sunday, May 15, with Marian Rivera's "batok" incident happening on the last part:

What's your opinion on this Marian Rivera-Manny Pacquiao "batok" issue?

Still on top is Marian Rivera with Angel Locsin, which dropped to 3rd in the previous tally, is back on the 2nd slot.

Sam Pinto goes up and is now 3rd, while Cristine Reyes dropped from #2 to #4.

Lovi Poe has been showing improvement in the FHM Sexiest 2011 voting since it started in April. From #54 to #26 previously, she's now in the Top 10 ranking at #9, replacing Rhian Ramos. (Probably Rhian's controversy with DJ Mo Twister makes her less sexy.)

Marian Rivera is now the one leading on FHM Philippines' 100 Sexiest Women 2011 Poll.

Based on the partial results as of April 29, 2011, Marian is now on top spot, from #3 in the previous update (April 19).

Angel Locsin who's previously on top and last year's FHM Sexiest winner drops to 2nd.

There was a mistake in the update above from FHM Philippines. Marian Rivera was listed twice, #1 and #3. But I think, the 3rd spot belongs to Cristine Reyes.

Marian Rivera "napakabait pala", says Tom Rodriguez

Kapamilya actor Tom Rodriguez is working with a bunch of Kapuso stars in the 2011 remake of "Temptation Island".

In the film, he plays one of Marian Rivera's two leading men.

It's their first time to work together, and Tom, who's still a newbie in the industry and has done only 2 films so far, admitted that he was really intimidated and scared the first time he met Marian Rivera during the story-con for the movie.

But his impressions with Marian all changed when they already started to film for "Tempation Island" last weekend.

Tom and the rest of the cast took a break from the shooting for the Holy Week observance and on Twitter (@akosimangtomas), Tom shared how he misses her co-stars, who are mostly Kapuso, and how he appreciates their being nice to him, most especially Marian who he finds as super nice and "kalog".

"Packup na ang temptation island for the holyweek...seryoso ako na mamimiss ko talaga ang buong cast at crew ng temptation island. Wala akong masabi sa kabaitan nila at kung pano nila akong tratuhing parang parte ng grupo :) lalo na si marian na natakot ako at naiintimidate nung una ko syang mameet eh napakabait pala at sobrang kalog :) ang astig nilang lahat :)," Tom posted on Twitter today.

Fans of Marian are happy to hear that coming from Tom, especially that Marian usually makes impressions as being "mataray", "maldita" etc.

A fan (@iamprimadona) even replied to Tom: "@akosimangtomas its nice that u had a chance to know the "real" marian. most of the time 1st impressions are really inaccurate."

And Tom tweeted back, ":) that is very true".

Aside from Marian and Tom, "Temptation Island" also stars Lovi Poe, Solenn Heussaff, Rufa Mae Quinto, Mikael Daez and Aljur Abrenica.

Marian Rivera no lines again in new Maxi-Peel Exfoliant Soap TVC

Marian Rivera is strikingly beautiful in her new TV commercial (TVC) for Maxi-Peel Exfoliant Soap TVC.

Marian's new TVC also features Survivor Philippines' Jef Gaitan, model Angelo Cacciatore and another one (pls pakilala ka po). Watch Marian Rivera's new Maxi-Peel TVC:

She's so beautiful!

But many have noticed that Marian wasn't given a line (again!) in her new TVC.

Since her Panasonic and Honda TVCs, some people have been monitoring her new TVCs to see if she'll be given at least a single word to say or no lines at all.

Marian even made headline on Pilipino Star Ngayon last year with regard to her TVCs. Published on July 18, 2010, the article was titled: "Marian hindi na binibigyan ng dialogue sa TV commercials".

Why nga ba?

But whatever it is, Marian definitely has one of the most beautiful faces we have, that's why her face alone is enough to convince the consumers to buy the product.

Mikael Daez starts shooting for 'Temptation Island' (Set Photos)

Mikael Daez has replaced Paulo Avelino as one of the leading men in Regal Film's upcoming film "Temptation Island".

Paulo's role in the film went to Mikael after the former begged off for the role due to health reasons, as what was revealed by his manager Leo Dominguez last Friday.

"Because @mepauloavelino fell ill and is still recuperating, he had no choice but to give up his leading man role in 'temptation island'.:(" Dominguez posted on Twitter.

Paulo was advised by his doctor to rest after he was diagnosed with pneumonia.

Cameras have already started rolling for "Temptation Island" since yesterday in Ilocos now with its new cast member Mikael Daez.

The newbie actor, who will soon play on TV as Marian Rivera's leading man in "Amaya", is playing leading man to Solenn Heussaff in his debut movie.

And guess what's Mikael and Solenn's first scene together? A kissing scene.

Check out fresh photos of the cast on the set of "Temptation Island":
