Kababayan L.A. host, Janelle So

Greetings PinoyLifers.  A few weeks ago, I was asked to appear on a show called Kababayan L.A. by its host, the lovely Janelle So.  She wanted to do a segment on blogging and asked me to be on the show after seeing some of the fun things I put on this site. 

The show aired on September 25, 2008 but there is a bit of backstory to some of the antics I pulled during the appearance.

Charice-Mania is running wild! (on daytime tv)

September 15, 2008 · Posted in General, Links, Music, Videos · 16 Comments 

Charice Pempengco keeps impressing the masses and now she’s gotten the attention of French Canada’s gift to the world – Celine Dion. 

On September 9, 2008, daytime talkshow host Oprah Winfrey had the young Pinay perform on her show only to surprise Charice with a video greeting from Celine Dion where she invited Charice to sing a duet at the Celine Dion concert in Madison Square Garden.  As much as Celine’s music immediately kills any sex drive and alcoholic buzz in my system, that is an impressive accomplishment for young Charice Pempengco.

If you don’t know her name yet, you better learn it fast because she is on her way to be the next big thing.

I’m not a fan of kicking a dead horse when it is down.  It’s just a mean thing to do. 

HOWEVER, there was one question people kept asking me when I was at FPAC, “Do you know how Pinoyfest went?”  

So for all of you that were curious, someone that goes by the name “A Very Opinionated Pinoy Dude” took one for the team and went to Pinoyfest with a video camera. 

I just have a few more things to say and I promise to stop with the Pinoyfest stuff.
