GMA 7's "Iglot" made a strong debut on primetime last Monday, August 29, 2011 based on rating figures released by Kantar Media - TNS and AGB Nielsen.

"Iglot", which stars mostly ex-Kapamilya talents such as Claudine Barretto, Jolina Magdangal, Marvin Agustin, Pauleen Luna, Patrick Garcia and Luis Alandy, scored a pilot rating of 20.5% nationwide (Kantar Media) and 12.6% in Mega Manila (AGB Nielsen).



It was not the most-watched program last Monday but it was able to beat ABS-CBN's "100 Days To Heaven" in Mega Manila and pull up the (already high) ratings of 'Amaya' which ranked #1 last Monday, from being 4th only last Friday.

Claudine Barretto - Angelica Panganiban alleged Twitter War

Was Angelica Panganiban really the subject of Claudine Barretto's angry Twitter posts like August 4, 2010?

If you're going to look back at the Twitter posts of Claudine and Angelica, it's very unclear that there's a rift going on between the two.

On July 24, Claudine attached this picture on her tweet to Angelica: "I luv you baby sis ko! Miss you super!"

Angelica, on one hand, responded by recalling the characters they portrayed in ABS-CBN's "Iisa Pa Lamang", "tama!!! Scarlet and Katherine :)"

According to Claudine, it was taken at the house of their friend Martin Castro. And Angelica's boyfriend Derek Ramsay was also with them. During that time also, Angelica hasn't made "peace" yet with Claudine's sister Gretchen Barretto.

So it's contrary to the reports that Claudine and Angelica had a heated argument at Martin Castro's birthday party, because Claudine was still able to tweet that after the party.

Claudine also tweeted, "@IamAngelicaP baby sis! I super miss you, hope all is well with you! You know that I love you so much di ba?"

It turned out though that it will be the last "tweet exchange" between Claudine and Angelica.

Then on August 4, Claudine made her Twitter followers wonder with her numerous angry messages to an unidentified person. Read on...

"Tweethearts ano ba dapat gawin sa traydor na kaibigan na walang magawa sa buhay kundi siraan ako, asawa ko, kaibigan ko at pangalan ko ng mga anak ko!!! Don't mess with my family ang stand ko!"

"isang daga na tago ng tago!!! Mahahahanap rin kita promise!!! Sana di mangyari sa 'yo to if pakakasalan ka??!"

"if you're not guilty haharap ka diba????? Eh nagtatago. Cge ill pray or reflect after KARMA. Hahabulin ko nun."

"Lord pls sana tonight na dalawin siya ng konsensya at karma!!!"

"you're not worth it girl! I keep praying for your soul, napakasama ng ginagawa mo!!!"

"sana di ka pa nalulunod sa success, sana ma-remember mo yung magagandang bagay na ginawa namin ng family ko for you. Sana."

"'di pa tapos to. You cannot forever hide. God knows and sees your heart 'n soul."

"if you're not guilty or you really know me why didn't you face me?"

"Respect? San part mo ako nirespeto?"

Way too long.

It's indeed not clear if it's Angelica or not. When you read Angelica's tweet the same day, there was no sign that she was fighting with someone else.

But Claudine gave out a clue the same day as to whom she's addressing her tweets: "Itago na lang natin siya sa pangalang --------!!!!"

It's an 8-letter name and incidentally, Angelica has 8 letters.

On August 8, four days after those tweets by Claudine, Angelica apologized to Gretchen Barretto on The Buzz over what she said to the latter back in June.

In a recent interview, Claudine opted not to reveal the name of the girl she's at war with. When asked if it was Angelica, she neither confirmed nor denied.

Claudine Barretto's drama anthology starts airing on March 28

Claudine Barretto will finally have her first regular show on GMA 7 three months after she transferred to the network.

She will have her own weekly drama anthology starting March 27. In the self-titled show, she will portray different kind of roles and be paired with various leading men.

To start it off, Claudine's real-life husband Raymart Santiago will join her on its first offering.

Claudine actually has done somewhat similar show when she was still on ABS-CBN. It was called "Star Drama Theatre Presents" but she starred there only for a month 'coz the show featured many stars not only Claudine. Unlike in her new Kapuso show which she can really claim as her own.

Judy Ann Santos, Claudine's showbiz rival, already had the same kind of show on ABS-CBN in 10 years ago. It was called "Judy Ann Drama Special" which lasted for 2 years.

Claudine Barretto transfers to GMA 7 because of Angel Locsin?

It's no longer a surprise when GMA's 24 Oras reported that ABS-CBN homegrown talent Claudine Barretto has moved to the rival network.

Many already predicted this to happen especially when Claudine Barretto signed movie deals with VIVA Films a month ago, leaving Star Cinema, ABS-CBN's film outfit.

Claudine Barretto was considered the biggest artist of Star Magic, the talent management of ABS-CBN, thus it is a real shocker that Claudine made such big decision of leaving Star Magic and transfer to GMA 7.

Speculations say that Claudine's silent rift with former GMA talent Angel Locsin triggered her to make the move.

It was reported before that Claudine had a feud with Angel during the latter's first year of stay on ABS-CBN after leaving GMA.

Star Magic and Angel's manager patched things up between the two. Claudine Barretto even said in one of her interviews that she and Angel were already okay.

But according to some isyuseros, there was still a silent conflict between the two.

Claudine allegedly was not happy with how Star Cinema is making special treatment to Angel especially when it comes to the projects which were supposedly meant for Claudine.

One of those projects is the supposed reunion movie of Aga Muhlach and Claudine Barretto.

Claudine happily announced before that she'd finally do a movie with Aga, but the said project allegedly was given to Angel Locsin.

Piolo Pascual and Claudine, who were good friends since they made the movie "Milan", also had conflicts during the Claudine-Angel feud because Piolo allegedly took side with Angel.

Before leaving ABS-CBN, Claudine was last seen joining other Kapamilya stars during the Star Magic World Concert Tour in Manila last November 13, but she never granted any interview for the showbiz reporters of ABS-CBN.

She was also supposed to do a teleserye with sister Gretchen on ABS-CBN but because of this latest development, it will not gonna happen. Maybe in movies, it's possible.

While on ABS-CBN, Claudine was tagged as the Optimum Teleserye Queen (because of 7 successful teleserye) and was named Box Office Queen twice (for Kailangan Kita and Sukob) by the Guillermo Mendoza Scholarship Foundation.

Claudine is also a 6-time Best Actress awardee after portraying competent roles in 3 Star Cinema movies: Milan, Dubai and Nasaan Ka Man.

We wouldn't be surprised if Claudine's bestfriend Diether Ocampo will follow her in the future.

With Angel Locsin on ABS-CBN and GMA now has Claudine Barretto, at least "quits na sila".

Kapuso fans are optimistic that Claudine Barretto will finally be paired with ex-boyfriend Mark Anthony Fernandez in a soap on GMA 7 plus of course, Claudine's husband Raymart Santiago.
