Star Magic Ball 2009: John Lloyd had Luis as his escort

Dressed in their formal attires and most elegant gowns, the talents from ABS-CBN's Star Magic gathered for the 3rd Annual Star Magic Ball last night, August 30, at the Makati Shangri-la Hotel.

Even non-Star Magic talents and non-Kapamilya stars were there to show some support to Star Magic, the biggest talent management and training center in the country.

Of course, people are very much interested to know who's with who during the ball.

Did Sam Milby attend the party with a new girl?

Definitely not this time. For the third year, Sam Milby escorted Anne Curtis to the ball to the delight of their fans. So, definitely, they're "back in each other's arms" (at least for a night).

There was this rumor before the event started that John Lloyd Cruz will have Ruffa Gutierrez as his date for the Star Magic Ball.

Well, sorry LloydFanatics, Ruffa brought his brother Raymond with her while John Lloyd was most of the time seen with leading man Luis Manzano (in promotion of course for their upcoming film "In My Life").

Last year, Luis was with Angel Locsin. (I'm still convinced that Luis' recent breakup with Angel is just a gimmick.)

How about comebacking loveteam Jericho Rosales and Kristine Hermosa? Jericho was with himself while Kristine was with rumored boyfriend Oyo Sotto.

Here are the other couples or pairs spotted in the event:


Kim Chiu and Gerald Anderson


Angelica Panganiban and Derek Ramsay


Matt Evans and Melissa Ricks


Mariel Rodriguez and Zanjoe Marudo


Piolo Pascual and KC Concepcion

John Estrada and Priscilla Meirelles
Diether Ocampo and Rima Ostwani
Claudine Barretto and Raymart Santiago (with Gretchen Barretto)

Will Devaughn and Helga Marie Krapf
Josef Elizalde and Nicole Uysiuseng (with Beauty Gonzalez)
Miguel Mendoza and Janna Dominguez
Joem Bascon and Meryll Soriano
Rafael Rosell and Aze Sazaki
Rica Peralejo and Joseph Bonifacio
Maja Salvador and Rayver Cruz
Shaina Magdayao and John Prats

Truly, the Star Magic Ball 2009 was the biggest, the grandest and most extravagant "artista gathering" ever!

The Star Magic Ball 2009 also marks the celebration of Star Magic's 17th anniversary.

That means to say, Star Circle Batch 1 member Rico Yan would have been celebrating his 17th anniversary in showbiz this year if not for his untimely death in 2002.

Cosmo Hunk: Sebastian Monroe

American-born Sebastian Monroe, 22-years-old and stands 6'0", is one of the Cosmo 69 Bachelors for 2009.

Sebastian is a professional model, who have graced various fashion events, print ads and commercials in the US, Spain, London and in Asia, including the Philippines.

There's no a lil Filipino blood in him. He's actually a mixture of French, German, Korean, Irish, native Indian and Filipino. Love the mix!

If he looks familiar to you, we'll you probably have seen him on the June 2009 cover of Stella Magazine with Erich Gonzales, Akihiro Sato, Rafael Endo and Victor Basa (he's the guy at the back near Akihiro).

He can also be seen inside Garage Mag's Aug/Sep 2009 issue with Piolo Pascual on the cover.

***

Sebastian is a shy-type guy but likes daring women.

In fact, in his interview with Cosmopolitan Magazine as one of the Cosmo 69 Bachelors, he says that there's nothing wrong if someone asks for his number right away.

"If you want to get my attention, just go right up to me and ask for my number!", he said.

Now you know what to do if in case you get face to face with him somewhere.

Sebastian also confessed he's a certified "b**b man" and he knows many ways to play with them. Wow!!!

Take a look at some of Sebastian photos taken from his Myspace account. Super hot!!!

Cosmo Bachelor Bash 2009 - September 10 - NBC Tent

Catch Gerald Anderson and 9 other at the annual Cosmo Bachelor Bash happening next month.

The Cosmo Bachelor Bash 2009 organized by Cosmopolitan Magazine (Philippines) is scheduled on September 10 at NBC Tent in Taguig City.

Gerald Anderson, who's a crowd-drawer in any BENCH fashion shows, will surely draw the biggest cheers in the said event.

But of course, don't underestimate the fans of Aljur Abrenica, who's also one of the 10 Celebrity Centerfolds.

After winning on GMA 7's Starstruck, Aljur has never been into an event like that of Cosmo Bachelor Bash or any major fashion shows. So, it's going to be a grand "first" for this "All My Life" lead star.

It has already been reported that Aljur has been doing extensive work-outs in preparation for the Cosmo Bachelor Bash.

Gerald and Aljur with their respective loveteams, who are all products of reality shows, are considered as "rivals" when it comes to being the "Teleserye Prince and Princess" titles.

But Aljur humbly admitted in an interview that the loveteam of Kim Chiu and Gerald has already gone too far as compared to Aljur-Kris Bernal tandem.

I hope the 10 Celebrity Centerfolds will be in full force this year, unlike in the previous years wherein two or three of the centerfolds were "no-show".

The rest of the 10 centerfolds are JC Tiuseco, Xian Lim, Ejay Falcon, Akihiro Sato, Daniel Matsunaga, Sid Lucero, Joem Bascon, and Phil Younghusband.

And of course, I'm also excited to see the 69 Bachelors walk the runway in their undies.

It's going to be fun! Get your tickets now!

Sarah Geronimo's Dahil Minahal Mo Ako stays at #1 on MYX OPM Countdown

The song "Dahil Minahal Mo Ako" is Sarah Geronimo's latest single to reach the #1 spot on MYX OPM Countdown.

Last August 15, the song made a strong debut at #2 and took the spot a week after.

And now, the song is enjoying its 2-week reign as #1 on Pinoy MYX Countdown.

If I remember it right..."Dahil Minahal Mo Ako" is I think the song composed by a fan who sent a letter to a newspaper requesting Sarah to interpret his song.

Sarah also sings Something New In My Life, the theme song of Star Cinema's upcoming film "In My Life".
