walk of fame or walk of shame?

i read about german moreno being in-charge of giving out "stars" to accomplished actors/entertainers in the philippine showbiz circle - and a new batch was now named.

http://www.pep.ph/news/15681/New-batch-of-stars-honored-at-Walk-of-Fames-third-anniversary

now the big question: what are the criteria before they name a person worthy of a star? does anyone know? how does one measure one's accomplishment?

i learned that ruffa gutierrez was one of the recipients of the prestigious "stars" - let me ask this: WHY? what are her so-called accomplishment that are worth mentioning? does she have an acting talent or award? does she exemplify good example to the local entertainment scene? oh, i would really love to know why ... aren't you curious?

postscript:
someone whispered that i forgot to write about ruffa's miss world 2nd princess title in 19-ewan - geez, people, that doesn't count, ok? it's nothing but a consolation prize for someone who did not win the crown! get that right in your hollow heads!

you're right there, c ece..

in the world of beauty pageants-- which is now a dime a dozen-- they even have pageants for farting it seems-- being a runner up in year what's it-- DOES NOT COUNT!!!! HELL, THOSE ORGANISERS EVEN FORGET WHO WON 3 YEARS AGO-- what more some 'flea bed' like Ruffa who was only runner uP???shoot! ONLY SHE & HER LAME RAH RAH BAKLA BOYS & PR STILL MAKE A BIG DEAL OVER THIS... WHY??? BEC SINCE THEN-- SHE HAD NOTHING TO ACCOUNT FOR AS ACOOMPLISHMENTS -- THAT'S WHY!

If Kokey is to go by-- she has the blankest face passing for 'acting'???? it's called grimacing--pathetic

ps.. Miss China just won Miss
world or universe-- which is which???? ALL THE SAME-- but she WON! this is going to cause such a stir--- now china is in full throttle for the Olympics-- gosh! all the modernisation going on there & rest of so east Asia-- makes Phil looking like it's living in the stone age-- & Arroyo is proud with strong peso???? silly twit-- ONLY BEC THE DOLLAR IS WEAK WITH IRAQ-- HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH HER POLITICS OR WISDOM.

she's another one ,no wonder she protects Ruffa.. plus.. traveling to other countries-- is she that blind not to see what squalor & generic Phil is compared to her neighbours????!!!!

TRIVIA or TRUTH?
yung ibang tao sa pilipinas, or to some filipinos, they hang on to one motto: I LOVE MY OWN!

if i remember it right, this "i love my own"-attitude is bourne of the filipinos' wrong interpretation of the national song translated into english which goes:

"i love my own my native land - philipippines my philippines"

yung mga bata noon who were introduced to this version forgot the rest of the lyrics - yung "I LOVE MY OWN" lang yung na-recall.

so, as a result, look at what has happened sa pilipinas - in politics, in showbiz and in everyday life - the new generation of filipinos ngayon puro sarili lang ang iniisip, everything else is wala silang pakialam.

examples sa showbiz at pulitika:

si lolit solis - wala syang paki na sirain ang puri ni sam at piolo

si ruffing - wala syang paki kahit na alam nyang kasinungalingan ang mga sinasabe nya basta lang mapag-usapan sya.

nanay ni ruffing na si inday annabelle - wala syang paki kung imoral sa ibang tao ang mga ginagawa nya basta ang importante sa kanya ay ang kapalit na pera sa "trabaho" nya

TV-networks - wala silang paki kung mga immoral ang artista nila basta lang kumikita sila ng maraming pera

the RP president GMA - walang paki kahit na anupang boycott or clamour for her to step down - yung title nya gusto nya "forever"

yung ibang pinoy - walang paki kahit niloloko ng harap-harapan, mapa-pulitika or showbiz - ang attitude nila "bahala na ang Dios sa kanila" - kahit papaano na-entertain sila sa mga kabulastugan ng marami in their midst.

gising mga pinoy!

food for thought anon,isn't it????
the problem is-- fiipinos have tunnel vision-- as having that attitude??? Phil is actually behind everybody-- not even in the running-- all other countries esp in s east asia have moved forward & Phil have regressed to oblivion..Phil is sad & pathetic,really.

here in US- I get all these different Asian cable channels & they have shows about different countries & rarely Phil--one thing that stood out all others even Indonesia have ancient buddhist temples that were built almost a thousands yrs ago--Java has some ancient ruin preserved in pristine condition that can be older than Ankor Wat in Cambodia.

shoot! Phil cannot even boast of one lame buddist temple!!!! I feel so cheated!!! as what does this mean???? one thing for sure-- before the spaniards came-- phil or even as tribal islands-- phil never had any sort of civilisation going on--it was primitive. even so called filipio food is watered,very primitive version of other countries.

so i don't know what Flips are being so proud of??? what?/ being proud to be ignorant???
Indonesia have a richer culture than Phil-- they were colonised too by europeans but they are/were proud of it & infused what the Portuguese & Dutch to their own culture-- then there's India etc-- & their food is so rich with different influences that t hey made their own-- wonderful!

they still have the steam train system brought by the Europeans-- & what does the Phil have to s how for her spanish heritage? hardly anything. Mostly in ruins or in bad state of repair-- hell, with this Taglish.. I am watching Singapore, Malaysia, Taiwan having totally spoken in english tv sit coms-- & cute,too.

Plus, even in the boondocks-- these c ountries have one of the most modern high way systems in the world-- Vietnam is now being rebuilt for tourism & getting so modern-- foreign investors injecting major money. Phil?? shoot the world bank won't even give a loan afraid the funds will be pocketed by greedy politicians!

Phil ???? not good. so many flips in US & still not really integrated in the fabric of American culture. Everyone else is.

filipinos are generally looked down on by other Asians-- I know, as they meet me with warmth & asked where I was borne-- I'd say Manila-- they cannot believe it to say-- they don't see me as Filipnia. & adding surely-- not pure. I'd say . no.they are so dismissive of Pilipinos-- with shaking of their heads..rather shameful really.

something had got to give..

mad dragon hindi bat dito sa states ang mga fan ni britney spears are from trailer homes etc., sa pinas parang ganon si Ruffa di ba, inapi nila mga patay gutom pero mga patay gutom lang naman ang mga fans nila. Totoo naman di ba?

yes, dfwusa-- trailer trash is the quaint term for them..

someone pointed out her new pics at cheesedip... ha. ha.. at 33 she sure dresses so matronly-- & the corset style dress is so poorly designed--she looks so thick--& that dress at that kiddie party-- what the hell was that???!!! it looks like it came from curtains-- ay! & her rah rah keeps complamenting her she looks great???? crikey! such delusions-- this is what happens when you pay for one's press!

so stupid!

ps.. oh I am watching a new series on my asian cable called Business Class-- featuring all the business centers in so east Asia-- Manila is the next episode-- I am very curious way it's going to be compared to the other cities they featured--as rarely do these shows ever show Manila_shows you what they think of it--so far they've shown BANGKOK-- SHANGHAI, BEIJING, ALL SUCH MODERN METROPOLIS-- MUMBAI, HONGKONG--wh hardly needs mentioning--

we shall see-- & another show I watch is THE FINER SIDE-- FROM SINGAPORE-- I tell you their rich live even more luxe & they have a way about them-- which I never see with Flips-- wh is so contrived & usually just a fascade --trying so hard.

oh well..

by the way these shows are all conducted in englsih- & the host/hostess are Asian-- they speak in fuent english even with a British accent & their choices of words very articulate-- when I lived in Phil as kid-- Phil was known for this-- now??? geez! hardly,isn't it? all that taglish corrupted the ability & one's capacity to 'think' & be fluent in english when speaking-- I notice..

Hey you guys!!! Check this out:

On Seals 2007 Most Admired, correct me if I missed something. Did anyone see any of the Gutierrez names in there? Please verify with me. Coz I know I'm sitting here, trying to pinch myself that I actually found someone write something that might just be credible coming from the Philippines.

I see what you mean--df.. bluntly-- what's there to 'admire' about ruffa ??? what?? for being a BIGAMIST??? a huge, fat (like her overused ass) LIAR??
having a drug dealer for her 'prince'???
tv personality??? for GRIMACING?? in her upteemth tv appearances in Kokey? Top Model?? with toy boy Abunda?? HELL-- SHE'S MORE CRUELA DEVILLE'S OLDER SISTER FOR CRYING LOUD..lol..

Anonymous said...

come to think of it-- if they ever do a remake of cruela-- they can hire ruffa-- disney did a hard job transforming Glenn close to look the part-- with ruffa --she can just come on set as she is-- she already has the wardrobe to boot.

I saw on flip news here an Indian director went to phil to check the 'local' talent-- of course, ruffa opened her big mouth wanting to b e noticed-- cracks! compared to those Indian honeys-- she's not even fit to wipe their bums-- as those Indian ladies a re truly gorgeous- wonder, how they got that way-- absolutely stunning-- they weren't made like that b efore- even the guys are hotties now-- with panache....Flip mestizos/zas used to be that way in the 'old' days-- NOT ANYMORE.i'M AFRAID.

Ayan!!! Panay ang racket ni Lolit Solis dahil alam naman natin kaylangan niya ng datung para sa legal battle niya against Piolo and Sam. Ano pang best to do kundi mag positive write ups kay Ruffa (who desperately needs it right now) para mabayaran siya ng pamilya Gutierrez. Check this:

pooh, pooh, so damn smelly-- baho, now this is one tagalog word that's so succinct about them.

rufa mae at ruffa, nag-share daw ng guy one time ayon sa people's journal? none other than bong revilla. naku, mega-appear pa nga sa radio noon si anabel at sinabing kung hindi uuwi si ruffa dahil 3 days na yata silang nagkulong ni bong sa hotel e susugurin na sila ni anabel kaya ayun, umuwi din ang ruffa.

also, why are they drumming this movie as if it's ruffa's own and come back (sic) movie? as is the Desperadas-movie is equals to brain dead ruffing? di hamak na mas me mga kalidad na talento yung ibang cast sa movie. si ruffing? sya yung pang-dekorasyon! a la christmas tree bling bling - yucky!

LOL. bloody hopeless-- reading her quips so laughable when she said-- she waited 12 yrs for this part'???? SHE WANTS TO BELIEVE SHE'S LIKE MERYL STREEP INUNDARED WITH OFFERS BUT NOTHING GOOD ENOUGH TILL THIS CAME ALONG???

WHEN in truth-- SHE DIDN'T GET ANY OFFERS ALL THAT TIME??? & SEEING THIS TRAILER-- CRIKEY! THIS DAMN HOE CANNOT ACT OUT OF A PAPERBAG????

DON'T YOU LOVE THE WAY HOE D ELUDES HERSELF??? & EQUALLY STUPID NO GUTS TO CHALLENGE HER.

no wonder, on every level-- Phil is a joke-- cannot even shut this bleeding hoe..

yap, watched trailer out of curiosity-- what the hell was that???!!!!

I think pretty much the whole damn film is in that trailer-- & if this is a top contender for Phil Oscars-- no wonder, it's so far behind it's neighbours...

Ruffa's 'grimacing' which she calls 'acting'-- puts this whole thing out of whack & balance.. all 4 leads look like they are in 4 separate movies

md, I don't really see anything good about it. The story is lame, Ruffa's acting can make anyone suicidal, and it made Iza Calzado and Marian Rivera seems tasteless in choosing a movie and talentless on this movie. It was just so wrong in every way you look at it.
It's just too bad that there are Pinoys who would actually care for this movie. This just shows everyone why Philippines is so far behind every other small countries in Asia the past few years.

Anonymous said...

ah. dfw.. few years???? how about a lot of yeArs-- Phil is way behind it's neighbours???

For every mini step Phil makes in the international market to b e recognised? Her neighbours are making leaps & bounds. I am telling ya'-- amazing how well recognised & respected they are. Maybe bec Phil is so insular with these t hings-- they are not aware or having their blinkers on-- believing it's 'thinking positive''-- WRONG!

In my asian cable-- there's this pop show called Music Bang-- showing pop vids in Asia & this is when I see flip videos & pop groups-- GEEZ! WHAT??? DOING SEX PISTOL TAKE OFFS?? 20 YRS TOO LATE???!!! boring,tuneless music? & this is hot over there??? see what I mean?? I don't understand Korean nor chinese( only a bit) but I'd rather watch their pop videos.. better made ,better tunes. better performers! great singers,too.
I like Korea's RAIN very much-- hhe can give Usher a run for his money--
Rain is buff, great dancer & he can move-- he makes world class videos.

hell, half these Flip groups sing in Tagalog-- & I still have to figure out what they are saying-- & they are so unkempt & unattractive..& they think-- they are cool.. please..

so how about the movies??? if Desperadas is anthing to go by???

PS.. debating whether to subscribe to Flip cable just to see what's going on there-- as hardly anything about Phil is shown on my usual Asian cable-- they used to at least show some-- not anymore since they revamp it-- what does this tell you??? they have better things to show from other cuntries than Phil.. NOT EVEN ONE MOVIE...when once a week-- they show films from different countries-- last 2 weeks-- they were showing Korea's 'marrying the Mafia 2 & 3-- very sleek & funny!

I watched 'BUSINESS CLASS' featuring Manila- I was oping for something fantastic-- they tried-- but compared to t he other cities they visited? Manila isn't even in the running-- see what I mean?? I was so sad after watching it.

ay.. what more to say?????

Excerpt from Ricky Lo's article in his Philippines Star column:

'2007: An 'oink-oink year
By Ricky Lo
Sunday, December 30, 2007

• Ruffa Gutierrez — She stirred more than a hornet’s nest when she announced that she was separating from Yilmaz Bektas, her husband of four years and father of her two lovely daughters. Did Yilmaz really turn the former (1993) Miss World Second Princess into a punching bag? After an exchange of heated words on national television, Yilmaz came to try a reconciliation but, no way, said Ruffa, she would never, never go back to Turkey which was her home for more than three years.

Set your facts straight, Mr. Lo! You seem to have more inside information than most people yet you chose to be bias in favour of Ruffing's "reputation" - pwe!
