EKSTRA: Now Showing in Cinemas Nationwide


EKSTRA: Now Showing in Cinemas Nationwide

This is the first time that I saw Vilma Santos with no make up in a movie. She deserves to be called the star for all season. She is really a wonderful actress.

Please do watch the indie film "Ekstra". It will be shown in theaters nationwide beginning August 14, 2013. You will surely not regret watching the film. Go and see the movie in theaters. Let's help our Philippine movie industry. No to pirated DVDs.

Top 10 weird visa applications


Top 10 weird visa applications

Are you applying for a Visa to go somewhere? Maybe to work or live out your dream? 


Are you aware that your reasons for applying do matter when filling up the application or when interviewed? So, I suggest you put your acts together and make sure it agrees with the laws of the country that you want to access so you'll get higher chances of getting approved. Global Visas is a private company that helps individuals and businesses wishing to secure visas in the country of their choice thus, Globalvisas.com has put together a list of the ten weirdest applications they have come across with in the last 12 months. When asked for their reasons for travel, applicants gave an unusual array of answers - from the illegal, to the unexpected, and the frankly odd.

We are all unique individuals in every sense of the word, that’s already given, we all have certain hopes in our lives, which might have been inspired from your favorite show, a novel or maybe sparked from an article you read in the past. This somehow, though slim in chance may have pushed us to gain interest in trying our luck and living that glorious aspirations outside the Philippines. I guess everything is possible now-a-days but then do consider the list I have below, if you are under this spell, and consider this wise.

According to them, the ten strangest reasons for applying for a visa are the following:

1) A South African man applied for a European visa, by saying he wanted to go to Romania to become a vampire hunter.

2) On his UK visa application, a Brazilian man said he wanted to bring "flamenco to the streets of Norwich".

3) A Russian woman applied for a European visa, so she could work as a prostitute in the Netherlands.

4) An embalmer from Mexico applied for a visa to ply his trade in Spain. When his criminal record was unearthed, the visa was refused.

5) On his European visa a Mali man said he was skilled with a pirogue, and wanted to transfer his skills to gondola driving in Venice.

6) A UK man listed his profession as a dog food taster on his US visa application.

7) A man in the Philippines applied to travel to Australia because he was "evading the local authorities".

8) One woman applying to move from France to the US gave her profession as 'foot model'.

9) A woman applied for a UK visa, saying she had "seasonal work as a zombie" .

10) A Peruvian man applied for a European visa to work as an "alpaca shearer" during "shearing season".

Note that every country has certain laws and limitations when come to this. So for an absurd reason of running from the a crime here in Manila, don’t count your luck on it. If ever you fall into one of the list or you are at loss of what better career options to file for, it would be good to seek out professionals who are adept to this kind of application, and those that could assure your visa approval.

Don’t get into shameful discussions about your reasons and thus getting disappointed on a disapproved application and eventually not finding a vampire or zombies in some countries.

VIDEO:"Without You" by Anne Curtis and Martin Nievera

Actress Anne Curtis collaborated with concert king Martin Nievera in a mash-up video that is taking the internet by storm.

Yes, loves! Anne Curtis and Martin Nievera performed a duet of Without You for the YouTube channel of musical director Marvin Querido.

Anne said she did not expect that she will receive hundreds of compliments after her mash-up video was uploaded on you tube.

I was so amazed on how she carried all those notes! The video shows Anne belting out notes like we’d never seen her before. Oii, Anne you should hire your vocal coach for this song forever! Ang galing! Nailabas niya ang ganda ng boses mo dear! Taray mo dito teh!

We are not aware that Anne could rap very well! You will surely be in awe. This video is something to love Anne for even more.
