Happy Birthday, Michael Jackson

It's not so long ago when a boy was born.  The eighth of ten children to an African American working-class family , in Gary, Indiana, an industrial suburb of Chicago.[]

With an interview with Oprah, he admitted been abused physically and emotionally, learning his talents the hard way.  He's been trained of singing and dancing instead of playing outside their house, enjoying his childhood.  Then Jackson 5 was born.  One of the songs that I could remember was "Ben" which speculations says Jackson dedicated to a mouse he learned to called his friend when abuse by his father  Joe took place.  He rose to stardom.  He became an icon with his "bitin" pants and white socks, distinctive black sequin jacket and golf glove.  He "Heal(ed) the World" with his songs, made us realize how we should change ourselves first in his "Man in the Mirror", learned to deny things with "Billie Jean", learned how to fall inlove with "I Just Can't Stop Loving You", pays tribute to AIDS victims such as his friend Ryan White. Then the rest is (as they say), a history.

I just wanted to relive his music, his influence as an artist, and what he has become from an abused kid.  Today is supposedly Michael Jackson's 52nd birthday.  

You'll remain the King of Pop in our hearts.  I love you, man...

Rest in Peace, Redford White

Yesterday, about 6:47 in the morning when the veteran action comedian, Cirpriano Cermeno II, better known as Redford White died of brain and lungs cancer.




“Today is one of the saddest days of my life. A truly honest and good man has passed away. Red was my partner. My Sol. We were One. I was the body, he was the soul. I was the vessel, he was the spirit. “He was a man who believed in the craft and valued his work. He was a professional and dedicated actor that everybody admired…. He is now one with his Creator. We love you Red. We will miss you,” said Eric Quizon, one of White's closest friend (in a text message.)

His last TV appearance was Palos with ABS-CBN 2, 2008. It's really sad for I grew up watching Body and Sol.

Charice got a Botox!

Charice Pempengco got a Botox! When surgery became a trend that doesn't mean you have to be "in". That's the talk of the town nowadays. Just recently, Filipino pop star, regarded by Oprah as "the most talented girl in the world", Charice Pempengco http://www.charicemusic.com undergone a botox procedure. People were like, "what the? She's just 18!" It's like a contagious disease circulating all over the Internet that speculates her young age over the concept of the procedure. Botox, when used as a cosmetic, will temporarily improve the appearance of moderate-to-severe frown lines between the eyebrows by means of paralyzing it of some sort. I'm not a doctor or a medical practitioner to elaborate it well. But Charice, when ask why did she undergone the procedure, says she got it to relieve her jaw problem. There's nothing wrong with that. whether she did it because of medical or personal reasons, it's up to her. And besides, she'll be rubbing elbows with the Glee Stars and I think she just wanted to make her look more contoured or celebrity-like. I just hope she'll not be addicted to her. Just take a look at Heidi Montag and Lindsay Lohan. Don't say I don't warn you, kiddo. Charice begins filming Glee this month and plays a foreign exchange student who will serve as serious competition for lead character Rachel Berry (Lea Michele). [source]
