'My Binondo Girl' Part 2 or a movie? What's next for Kim Chiu and Xian Lim?

ABS-CBN's 'My Binondo Girl' had its successful 'dragon finale' last night, January 20, as many viewers watched to know how the love story of Jade (Kim Chiu) and Andy (Xian Lim) will end in the soap.

And just like in most Pinoy soap operas, it also wrapped up in a wedding between Jade and Andy, which was of course a delightful ending for the fans of Kim and Xian loveteam.

As wished by the fans, Jade's father, Papa Chen, played by Richard Yap has survived from lung cancer and lived happily ever after with Zheny (Ai-Ai delas Alas).

For many reasons, 'My Binondo Girl' was truly one of the most successful and most memorable soaps on ABS-CBN.

It was the launching pad for Richard Yap who because of his 'Papa Chen' role is now the newest Kapamilya heartthrob and is being dubbed as 'Papa ng Bayan'. (Read: 'Papa Chen' Richard Yap, new Kapamilya heartthrob)

This is for sure the start of a bright showbiz career for 'Papa Chen', though he said on Twitter that he doesn't know yet what ABS-CBN is planning for him after his debut soap. (Maybe he's keeping it a secret.)

It was also in 'My Binondo Girl' where Jolo Revilla shone as an actor (for the first time). He delivered very well his role as the admirable Onyx, that even his rumored girlfriend Kris Bernal loved it so much.

In an exchange of tweet with her on Twitter, the Kapuso star (yes, she also watched 'My Binondo Girl') is hoping she could also find someone like Onyx.

"@mykiru sana may katulad pa ni Onyx!!! :))," said Kris (@soKRISme) in reply to my tweet.

And of course, the soap gave birth to (you choose) Jandy or KimXi, the loveteam of Kim Chiu and Xian Lim, which was well-received by the fans despite Kim coming from a very successful loveteam with Gerald Anderson.

Lots of projects are already lined up for Kim and Xian after 'My Binondo Girl', such as a movie and a new teleserye.

Some fans who were so much attached to the characters of Jade and Andy are wishing for a Part 2 of 'My Binondo Girl' or a movie version of the soap, while others want a brand new teleserye or movie for the two.

There are fans who are also open with the idea of putting together Kim and Xian, and Kim's former loveteam partner Gerald Anderson in one project.

Whatever it is, it's definitely goin' to be a hit.

If you were to be asked, what do you like next for Kim Chiu and Xian Lim? Vote on this poll...

Gretchen Barretto reacts to "Alta getting shelved" issue

Gretchen Barretto has already reacted on the issue that her teleserye 'Alta' has been shelved.

In 'Alta', Gretchen will star for the first time with Angelica Panganiban and KC Concepcion.

At PeopleAsia Magazine's 'People of the Year' Awards held Thursday night, TV Patrol reporter Mario Dumaual got the chance to ask Gretchen about the status of her new soap.

She said, "I want to fall in love with my project. Gusto ko, kapag in love ako sa project, I know that people will fall in love with a project. Hangga't hindi ko yun mabibigay, ayaw kong gumawa ng proyektong hindi tama para sa tao."

What a vague answer!

Analyzing La Greta's statement, it seems 'Alta' has been put on-hold but definitely will still push through ('coz she wants to fall in love with the project first.)

It's been more than a year already since 'Alta' was offered to Gretchen.

She gave her "yes" to the project in September 2010, while she was still committed to the fashion-serye 'Magkaribal' which earned her a Best Actress recognition at the 25th PMPC Star Awards for Television last October.

2011 has passed, but taping hasn't started yet for the much-delayed teleserye.

Aside from Gretchen, Angelica and KC, originally cast as their leading men were Zanjoe Marudo and Sam Milby, but the latter already pulled out from the project last November, 'coz he's set to leave this February 1 to try out his luck in Hollywood.

New additions to the cast after Sam gave up his part in the soap were Diether Ocampo and Luis Manzano.

American Idol Season 11 Top 42 Contestants Spoilers Leak: Pinoy Jessica Sanchez makes the list

American Idol Season 11 had its 2-night premiere, January 18 and 19, 2012, with Steve Tyler, Jennifer Lopez and Randy Jackson returning as judges and still hosted by Ryan Seacrest.

The American Idol Season 11 premiere episodes only showed who made it to the Hollywood round from the auditions held in North Charleston, South Carolina and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA, but weeks before the premiere, some 'Idol' fan sites have already leaked the contestants who made it to American Idol Season 11's Top 42 list.

One of those sites is VoteForTheWorst.com which has the spoiler list of the Top 42 contestants, those who made it to the "Sing-For-Your-Life" round.

It's the round after the Las Vegas round (Top 60) and before the Top 24 is revealed.

And we, here in the Philippines, have something to get so much excited about as 16-year-old Filipino-Mexican Jessica Sanchez (photo) from San Diego, California reportedly made it to the Top 42 (and even in the Top 24).

A wildcard contestant in America's Got Talent Season 1, Jessica Sanchez is close friends with American Idol 10 finalist Thia Megia and Justin Bieber's ex-girlfriend Jasmine Villegas. Thia and Jasmine are also partly-Filipino.

Thia Megia Network has a kiddie photo of the three:

A name of another Top 42 contestant, Alex Borja, sounds Pinoy, but he's reportedly a Mexican.

Check out the contestants who made it to American Idol 11's Top 42, based on the leaked spoilers list:

Sarah Geronimo's solo show 'Sarah G Live!' replacing 'Gandang Gabi Vice'

Sarah Geronimo will finally have her own solo show, a weekly musical program, soon on ABS-CBN.

Entitled 'Sarah G Live', Sarah Geronimo's
show will premiere February 19, that's a Sunday, reportedly replacing 'Gandang Gabi Vice' (GGV), which is a consistent top-rating program.

That's what PEP's @scoopbox posted on Twitter last night, but there's no official confirmation yet from ABS-CBN and from Vice Ganda himself if GGV is
indeed going off-air and will be replaced by 'Sarah G Live!'.

[LATEST UPDATE: Gandang Gabi Vice will temporarily bid goodbye, and will return for its 2nd Season.]

Will this just ignite the rumored feud between Sarah Geronimo and Vice Ganda?

If you notice, Sarah never guested on Gandang Gabi Vice since it premiered last May, even if Sarah had a movie to promote, 'Won't Last A Day Without You' with Gerald Anderson.

Sarah also never promoted the movie on Vice's other show, "Showtime". But Gerald did, just him and no Sarah.

The 'silent war' between Vice Ganda and Sarah reportedly stemmed from Sarah not granting Vice's request to guest her on Gandang Gabi Vice during its first few episodes.

That probably explains why it was so easy for Vice to make fun of Sarah when couple Cristine Reyes and Rayver Cruz guested on Gandang Gabi Vice last December.

Remember that episode? The one with a Sarah G impersonator singing 'Won't Last A Day Without You' for Cristine and Sarah's ex-bf Rayver?

Sarah also hasn't guested yet on Kris TV, hosted by Vice's best friend Kris Aquino.

During the promo for 'Won't Last A Day Without You', it was only Gerald and Mr. Joey De Leon who guested on Kris' show.

What's going on Vice, Kris and Sarah?

It would still be delightful for most viewers if we have 'Sarah G Live!' and 'Gandang Gabi Vice!' back-to-back every Sunday. What yah think?

Jason Abalos kisses better than Patrick Garcia, says Maja Salvador

Jason Abalos is better than Patrick Garcia when it comes to kissing expertise, according to their leading lady Maja Salvador.

Jason Abalos, Maja Salvador and Patrick Garcia are the stars of the new afternoon drama 'Precious Hearts Romances Presents: Lumayo Ka Man Sa Akin'.

Maja has lots of kissing scenes with Jason and Patrick in 'Lumayo Ka Man Sa Akin', and when asked at the presscon who's the better kisser, Maja picked Jason.

It's kinda obvious though that Jason kisses better than Patrick even without kissing them. Just base it on their lips. The thicker, the better! Lol! (Where's Rayver Cruz?)

'Lumayo Ka Man Sa Akin' premieres Monday, January 23, on ABS-CBN's Kapamilya Gold block, right before 'Maria La Del Bario', whose stars include Jewel Mische.

That means, starting Monday, it's a back-to-back Jason and Jewel on ABS-CBN.

Recently, Jason has admitted his relationship with Jewel, just in time for the promo of his new teleserye.

Jason Abalos still the 'Kayod King'
In 2010, I branded Jason as the 'Kayod King'. Read HERE why I said so.

And he still owns the title up to now.

'Reputasyon' which also stars Jason is ending this Friday and will be replaced on its timeslot starting Monday by Jason's new soap 'Lumayo Ka Sa Akin'.

It already happened before with his soap 'Kambal Sa Uma' being replaced by a new soap "Nagsimula Sa Puso" still starring Jason.

'Lumayo Ka Sa Akin' is already Jason's 13th teleserye in only 6 years, and his 7th afternoon teleserye, that's why he also now owns the title "Prince of Daytime Drama".

Anne Curtis sends tweet to 'Bourne Legacy' actor Edward Norton, targets Hollywood?

Anne Curtis was caught on Twitter sending a tweet to Hollywood actor Edward Norton.

42-year-old Norton of the movies "Primal Fear", "American History X" and "The Incredible Hulk" to name a few is reportedly here in the Philippines to shoot for the film "The Bourne Legacy".

But sources say that he's yet to arrive on January 22.

That's why 26-year-old Anne Curtis, Philippines' newest Box-Office Queen, an award-winning actress and a platinum-selling music artist, took the chance (everyone has this chance actually) of sending a tweet to Edward on Twitter, welcoming him to the Philippines.

According to Anne, Norton is her favorite actor. Using her Twitter handle annecurtissmith, Anne posted, "@EdwardNorton You're one of my fave actors ever! Hope you enjoy you're shoot here in the Philippines!"

It's my first time to hear that Norton is her favorite actor. Is it just because Norton is here and now he becomes Anne's favorite?

Is she making "papansin" and hoping she might land a Hollywood role?

Aside from being an actor, Edward Norton is also a director. He directed "Keeping The Faith" which starred himself and Ben Stiller. Who knows, if Anne gets Edward's attention, he might bring her to Hollywood or thru his influence, help Anne land a part in 'Bourne Legacy'. Pwede!

But I believe though that Edward is really Anne's favorite 'coz she has been following Norton's Twitter account for a long time already, long before he was reported to come to the Philippines.

Edward is really a great actor, as his first movie 'Primal Fear' in 1996 already earned him an Oscar nomination. Then another Oscar nod came after 2 years for his 4th film 'American History X'.

And probably it's Edward who will be flattered to receive a tweet from Anne, who has so much more followers than him on Twitter. Edward has 1.19-million followers while Anne has 2.2-million.

Anne is also among the Top 200 most-followed Twitter users in the WORLD, while Edward is nowhere even in the Top 500.

Unfortunately, Norton hasn't replied yet to her tweet.

Aside from Anne, other Filipino celebs who said on Twitter that Edward Norton is their favorite are Georgina Wilson and Solenn Heussaff.

Georgina (@iloveGEORGINA) tweeted, "Is Edward Norton really here in the Philippines??? Omg he's my favorite actor!!!"

Solenn (@solennheussaff) replied to her tweet. "MINE TOO!! Where are u ed?? haha."

But wait, Anne, Georgina and Solenn are close friends right? Wow! They all fave Edward Norton.

Other Filipino celebs such as Jason Abalos, Paulo Avelino, Karen de los Reyes and Megan Young are joining these three gorgeous girls in the club and also posted on Twitter about being a fan of Norton.

thejasonabalos: "Darating si Edward Norton?????~|<€#}~<%%^££*^%#^% gusto ko makita hehe"

mepauloavelino: "one of the actors i look up to is in the Philippines!!! Edward Norton!!!!"

karendelosreyes: "Whooooaaaa! Edward Norton is here in the Philippines? One of My Fave Actors Ever!"

Carmina Villaroel, Patrick Garcia, Paulo Avelino all want to work with Kim Chiu

Carmina Villaroel is the latest star from GMA 7 to transfer to ABS-CBN and she's also the latest to express intention of working with Kapamilya Primetime Princess Kim Chiu.

In August, when 'StarStruck' Avenger Paulo Avelino moved to ABS-CBN, he said that among the female leading ladies in the Kapamilya Network, it's Kim Chiu who he wants to be paired with.

When asked why he chose Kim Chiu, Paulo said "Aside sa galing niya sa pag-arte, siyempre ang kagandahan niya at isa siyang mabait na artista," as reported on ABS-CBNNews.com.

Then Patrick Garcia, who returned as a Kapamilya last December, also said via Push.com.ph that he wants to star in a project with Kim Chiu.

Aside from Patrick, another returning Kapamilya, this time an actress, also wants to work with Kimmy.

Instead of citing a male Kapamilya like Piolo Pascual or some other, Carmina Villaroel cited Kim's name when asked the same question as that of Paulo and Patrick.

"Gusto ko si Kim Chiu kasi maraming nagsasabi na magkahawig daw kami," Carmina said during her contract signing with ABS-CBN last Monday.

(Quota na si Kim Chiu ah!)

And if ever Aljur Abrenica, who's being rumored to transfer to ABS-CBN this 2012, he will also have Kim Chiu as his top choice, as this Kapuso actor said before that he has a crush on Kim.

***

Speaking of Aljur's rumored transfer, a Kapuso insider told Mykiru that it would be very hard for Aljur to leave GMA 7 for ABS-CBN. "Masyadong tight ang contract sa GMA eh, kaya malabo 'yan," the source said.

After 'Amaya', Aljur has no follow-up project on GMA, other than a post-Valentine movie entitled 'My Kontrabida Girl' with Rhian Ramos as his leading lady.

Big Brother Brazil Rape Scandal: Daniel Echaniz allegedly raped fellow housemate Monique Amin

Big Brother Brazil is being rocked by a rape scandal involving two of its housemates: Monique Amin and Daniel Echaniz

Big Brother Brazil housemate Daniel Echaniz, a 31-year-old "black" professional model, has been accused of raping fellow housemate Monique Amin, a 23-year-old student.

The intimate moment between Daniel Echaniz and Monique Amin while under the blanket was watched live by millions of Brazilian viewers, video of which has already been uploaded on Youtube.

The incident happened early morning Sunday, January 15, 2012, after the housemates had a drinking party. (Our very own Pinoy Big Brother also had a drinking party that day.)

That's only 5 days after all 16 housemates have entered Big Brother Brasil house last January 10. (Mister Brasil Mundo 2010 Jonas Sulzbach is among the housemates. He reportedly has a webcam video scandal.)

Wow! Can you imagine that? Daniel and Monique have only known each other for 5 days, yet they already did that inside the house. Isn't it too fast?

The Daily Mail reports that the police has been alerted of a possible rape inside the Big Brother house and is now conducting an investigation.

Daniel Echaniz allegedly took advantage of the alcohol-fueled and unconscious Monique Amin, which can be classified as rape, but Amin, when asked about what happened, there was no rape and it was consensual.

Big Brother Brazil allegedly was given an option by the police, either to remove Daniel Echaniz or cancel the show, as investigation continues for the alleged rape.

The show opted to eject Daniel for a serious violation of the house rules. (In Pinoy Big Brother, it's Forced Eviction).

Echaniz left the Big Brother Brazil on Monday, January 16, a day before the 1st Eviction, where Echaniz was not among the nominees.

But his misbehaviour caused him to become the first housemate to exit Big Brother Brazil Season 12.

While "under the blanket" thing is very common in some Big Brother versions worlwide, it's I think the first "rape" incident that ever happened in any version of Big Brother (if it was indeed a rape).

Jason Abalos and Jewel Mische, new showbiz couple

Jason Abalos has finally admitted that Jewel Mische is his new girlfriend.

The new Prince of Daytime Drama Jason Abalos, who topbills new soap 'Lumayo Ka Man Sa Akin', faced Boy Abunda on Bandila's "Ikaw Na!" segment and there he admitted about his relationship with 'Maria La Del Barrio' star Jewel Mische.

Boy Abunda asked, "Kayo na ba ni Jewel Mische?"

Jason Abalos, who was only given "yes" or "no" as an answer, has admitted his relationship with Jewel Mische by answering "yes".

It was in July 2011 when the two were reported dating and were seen many times going out together.

And that time, Jason denied any romantic involvement with Jewel and insisted that they're just friends.

Jason's last relationship prior to Jewel was with Kapamilya-turned-Kapuso Bela Padilla, while Jewel, a Kapuso-turned-Kapamilya, had Richard Gutierrez as her boyfriend.

Luis Manzano to host Kapamilya Deal Or No Deal Season 4

Luis Manzano will be hosting Kapamilya Deal or No Deal when it returns for a new season on ABS-CBN.

Luis replaces Queen of Game Shows Kris Aquino, who hosted the previous 3 seasons of Kapamilya Or No Deal.

It was actually Kris who accidentally announced on her show, Kris TV, this morning that Luis Manzano will be the new Kapamilya Deal or No Deal host, probably to show the viewers she's not bitter that she lost the hosting job.

"Okay lang talaga sa 'kin na 'di na ako ang host. Kasi nga may soap ako ['Kailangan Kita'] with Anne Curtis and start na kami ng taping sa February 17. 'Di ba sabi ko naman sa inyo, ngayong 2012 I'm an actress" she said, followed by her signature laugh.

This marks the first time that Luis Manzano will be hosting a game show without Billy Crawford.

Luis and Billy co-hosted the short-lived game show 'Panahon Ko 'To: Ang Game Show ng Buhay Ko'. (They also hosted together 'Pilipinas Got Talent', a talent search program.)

A multi-awarded TV host, it's actually Luis' first show on ABS-CBN where he will be hosting solo (he's the only host and no co-hosts.)

He usually hosted with a partner: with Jodi Sta. Maria in 'Star Circle Quest', with Anne Curtis in 'Qpids', with Alodia Gosiengfiao in 'Laugh Out Loud' and Billy Crawford, as mentioned, in 'Pilipinas Got Talent' and in 'Panahon Ko 'To..."

Pinoy Big Brother kissing game draws lots of buzz | Lance Howard, Wendy Tabusalla's boyfriend, reacts!

Pinoy Big Brother boring no more!

Pinoy Big Brother Unlimited becomes exciting again, thanks to Pinoy Big Brother housemates Tin, Kevin, Slater, Divine, Wendy and Carlo.

PBB Unlimited was already becoming uninteresting, but not until when the drinking party was aired last Sunday, January 15.

"Ang wild ng mga housemates!" says Diane, a friend who texted me last Sunday while watching PBB.

The episode featured the drinking party of the Top 14 PBB Unlimited housemates, and after enough dosage of alcohol, they had a kissing dare game where some housemates shared hot kisses.

Housemates who kissed each other on the lips were Tin Patrimonio and Kevin Fowler, Slater Young and lesbian Divine Maitland-Smith, and finally, Carlo Romero and Wendy Tabusalla.

The terms "Tin and Kevin", "Slater and Divine" and "Wendy and Carlo" all made it to Twitter's trending topics in the Philippines that night, and "Tin and Kevin" also trended worldwide, at #9.

Carlo and Wendy actually kissed the longest among the 3 pairs, and then later kissed again the 2nd time.

Carlo also kissed with Deniesse Joaquin on the later part of their drinking party.

It was just fine. It looked so exciting, except that Wendy is very much committed.

Wendy was heavily criticized by netizens
because she has a boyfriend waiting outside. He's Lance Howard (photo), a model who looks so much hotter than Carlo.

Lookin' hurt, Lance Howard appeared on PBB UnliDay episode yesterday and reacted on Wendy's kiss and intimate moments with Carlo. "Na-hurt ako talaga. Pero nangyari na. Tanggapin na lang. Kung saan sya masaya, suportahan ko sya."

PBB UnliDay host Bianca Gonzalez asked Lance's opinion if it's just okay for a committed person to kiss with someone who's not his girlfriend or her boyfriend. A teary-eyed said, "It's okay to be touchy on others even if you have bf or gf already, but masakit lang talaga eh."

Lance was also asked to give a message for Carlo and he said, "Steady lang!"

And for Wendy: "I'm still here to support you. I'm proud of you."

But in a separate interview aired on PBB UnliNight the same day, Lance had a different message for Carlo and girlfriend Wendy. To Carlo: " dumistansya ka naman!" And for Wendy: "Sana mauntog ka!"

Janelle Manahan wants links to the 2nd video of her and Ramgen

Janelle Manahan is already aware that the 2nd video of her with late boyfriend Ramgen Bautista aka Ram Revilla has already made its debut online.

The 2nd video which shows Ramgen Bautista and Janelle Manahan inside the bedroom is 4-minute long and a concerned fan has already alerted Janelle about it.

On Twitter, she posted a message to Janelle telling her about the newly-leaked 2nd video of her and Ramgen.

Janelle replied to the fan and asked for the links to the new video. "Can I please have the link to it so I can report it? Thank you!"

She further asked what kind of scene is being shown in the 2nd video. "What kind of scene is it? But you're certain? Thank you for the information."

The fan later described to Janelle that the 2nd video shows her in bed with Ramgen.

I feel so sad for Janelle that she's going through with this super harsh situation. But a strong and driven woman, I know she can handle this with ease.

Ronald Singson is back! But Lovi Poe now dating Migz Villafuerte?

Ronald Singson has been released from prison!

Ronald Singson is now back in the country after his 18-month stint in Hong Kong jail due to drug possession.

Singson arrived last Saturday and was given a welcome party in Vigan but his girlfriend, allegedly an "ex"
already, actress Lovi Poe was not around to welcome the former Ilocos Sur Rep. back in the country.

Will Singson make up for the lost time with Lovi? Is Lovi still
willing to accept Singson in her life?

That's still possible if Lovi hasn't found someone to get addicted in love with.

A reader has sent to Mykiru two pictures of Lovi Poe in the arms of another guy, who I've recognized as Miguel 'Migz' Villafuerte.
(Remember him? Migz was linked to Sarah Geronimo last year.)

These are the pictures, which were originally uploaded at 7th High's Facebook Page and were taken last December 31 during the club's New Year countdown.

They look sweet in there!

Are they dating? Is Migz Villafuerte the new 'Singson' in Lovi's life?

If yes, then Ronald Singson would be broken-hearted to know about it (and he might just want to return to prison na lang haha).

Janelle Manahan and Ramgen Bautista 2nd video (Part 2) has leaked: From Bathroom to the Bedroom

Janelle Manahan and Ramgen Bautista's private video has a Part 2 and this time, they're in the bedroom.

Janelle Manahan admitted on "The Bottomline" last Saturday that she and slain boyfriend Ramgen Bautista did a couple of videos in 2007.

That was during the first year of their relationship, and according to Janelle Manahan, they kept the videos in CDs and in their laptop for 2 years.

They finally destroyed all the copies in 2009 after video collections of Hayden Kho Jr leaked on the internet, probably they were worried that it might also happen to them.

But it seems like the videos weren't deleted completely as copies of those have been uploaded online.

Janelle said in her 'Bottomline' interview that Ramgen's family, who is now in possession of the laptop and who she suspects as responsible for the leak, possibly was able to retrieve the deleted videos from the laptop's hard drive.

She also made an appeal to whoever has copies of the video not to watch and share them in respect to Ramgen. "Respeto na lang po sa namatay. 'Wag na nating tangkilikin yung video kasi wala naman kayong mapupulot na maganda. It doesn't make you a better person."

Despite the appeal, a Part 2 video of Ramgen Bautista and Janelle Manahan, this time in the bedroom, is also making rounds now, reportedly not just only on the internet but also in cellphones.

The Ramgen and Janelle bedroom video, according to some Twitter users who have watched the 2nd video, runs for 4 minutes and exposes Janelle more when compared to the first video.

'It's More Fun In The Philippines" says Janelle Manahan despite the controversy

'It's More Fun In The Philippines' indeed for Janelle Manahan when asked if it's still more fun in the Philippines after the murder of her boyfriend Ramgen Bautista and after her private video with him leaked on the internet.

Janelle Manahan actually answered a very funny (irrelevant) question by a PUP student who was given a chance to ask her on "The Bottomline with Boy Abunda" last night.

He asked, "Can you still say that it's more fun in the Philippines after the scandal and the murder happened?"

(Lol. Who would want to be murdered and be feasted by people with your steamy video? It's definitely not fun.)

Probably he was sent there by the Department Of Tourism (DOT) to ask that question to Janelle, but this Bicolana woman still answered his question, left with no choice but to say "yes" and agree that it's still more fun in the Philippines.

"Of course naman, I'm proud to be a Filipino and mahal ko ang Pilipinas," said Janelle.

Maybe she considered the positive things she has. The murder and the scandal were just two against the many good things that happened and will happen to her. (And that's something we should learn from her.)

Janelle is truly a brave and intelligent woman as she answered all questions thrown during her tell-all interview on The Bottomline.

When asked if she was a battered girlfriend, she said yes. And it was within 2 years, but no longer during the last year of her relationship with Ramgen.

On the question about having more videos with Ramgen other than the one leaked on the internet, Janelle admitted that she and Ramgen have
more private videos which they did in 2007 until 2009.

They burnt it on CDs but when the Hayden Kho - Katrina Halili scandal came out in 2009, they destroyed all copies and also deleted the files from the laptop.

Janelle made an appeal to everyone not to watch and share the videos.
"Respeto na lang po dun sa namatay, kahit 'wag na sa 'kin. 'Wag na nating tangkilikin yung video kasi wala naman kayong mapupulot na maganda. It doesn't make you a better person."

Boy Abunda also asked her if she has someone from the Bautista family who she still trusts. She bravely answered, "No one!"

It's unclear though if she meant the whole Bautista family including Ramgen's half-brother Sen. Ramon 'Bong' Revilla Jr or only Ramgen's family (his siblings and his mom Genelyn Magsaysay).

Sen. Bong's son, actor Jolo Revilla was watching The Bottomline's episode on TV last night. He even tweeted, "@Janelle_Manahan watching you right now... :-) be strong! #justice4ramgen"

Janelle later tweeted in reply to Jolo, "@jolorevilla Thanks jolo! Super thank you sa inyong lahat for being so supportive towards finding #justice4ramgen."
