Noontime shows

Malamang kayo rin!: Ang isang favorite pasttime ng family nyo pag linggo ay manood ng noontime show sabay laitin at i-criticize ang mga performers. Its a national past time. Ewan ko ba kasi naman yang mga noontime shows ang hilig gawing mag:
1. Palabas ng mga banda sabay sasabayan ng host na off na off . Mabuti na lang talaga na merong mga bandang kagaya ng Kamikazee na ilan beses na nila pinasabayan ng host pero palaging natutulala lang ang host sa hirap ng kanta at sa tinde ng kakulitan.

2. Maglipsing ng kanta..lipsing na nga talo pa rin.

3. Pilitin magsuot ng Jacket ang mga hosts kahit ang init init.

4. Pilitin pagsuotin ng Haute Couture type outfits.

5. Pilit pakantahin paulit ulit ang mga 60's at 70's songs na malamang ay personal favorite lang kasi ng director pero sa totoo ay bored na bored kami family pag nanonood ..para bang walang mga bagong kanta .

6. pakantahin ng lipsing na may broadway type theme.. pinauso non ni kuya germs ..pero 20yrs ago pa naman yon!

7. Pilit paperformin ang older generation sa newer generation ... eto madalas to sa ASAP , yung kakanta sila kuh at zsa zsa with matching outfits with the new singers and performers.. eh hello naman ibang level na ngayon dapat ang singers at performers.. ngayon tumatumbling tumbling ang mga artista pag sumasayaw.. pagbumirit ..birit with matching lively showmanship.. most of the stars before doesnt do that stuff.. dati kasi kakaunti lang ang stars..ngayon sobrang dami kaya ibang level.. makikita mo mega showmanship mga new singers tapos dyadyan pasok ang older singers.. biglang drop ng energy level..tapos ang outfit naman pa ni zsa zsa at kuh.. umiinit palagi ang ulo ngmga tita ko pag nakikita. Sana hiwalay na segmetns naman.

sasbagay.. infairness marami na ring improvements ang noontime shows.. gaya ng mga magaling sumayaw lang talga ang pinasasayaw as much as possible .. wala ng mga bellstar numbers na panay buhat lang ang ginagawa. Marami ng live numbers. At syempre nagpagsasama family sa lunch table para manlait man or magenjoy.

Tito Vic ang Joey

I bought a friend of mine a TVJ t-shirt as a despedida gift a few days ago. The T-Shirt had the SGT Pepe album cover printed ont it. It was pretty cool. I also have a TVJ shirt where in they were all in Straight Jackets , I wore it at saguijo one time and some guys would just blurt out.. "Uy pare cool shirt" pero most girls wouldn't notice the shirt . Siguro its one of those things you see on FHM, wherein they would ask girls questions where in most of the true blue husky male population would be able to answer but most of the women would have no clue. So What am I pointing at? Tito(pre political career) Vic and Joey are considered Male Icons.

Palagay ko nagshift na ang paradigm talaga, nung 80's sino ang mga icon or idols.. si Arnold, si Sly, si daboy, si FPJ, yun ang mga idols dati. Lets take out sports idols , kasi the category for them I think hasn't changed.

Ill do Tito Vic and Joey first, why they are still considered Idols and Icons til now, kasi most of the guys I named above are considered has beens except for arnold and FPJ. Well for starters they were rebels before, they were funny, most guys grew up with their jokes and their brand of kulitan. Plus ang pinaka importante eh di sila pretty boy.. so bihira mo sila makitahan ng yabang factor. I mean, If you ask a guy kung idol nya si Richard Gomez or si Vic Sotto.. mas malaki chance si Vic Sotto. This also tie's up with my Cute and Witty theory a few months back. Yup they were not pretty boys, they got in trouble , they were green, they were funny and they partly responsible for reinventing or scuplting the current Manila Culture. I think thats why they are considered Icons, they were the true blue artists who kept reinventing themselves , tapos kaya pa rin nila mag influence or dictate what new stuff is cool.. yun ang cool.

So, ano yung change of paradigm? well for one thing hindi na uso ang hollywood action star and pinoy action star.. they are not idolized anymore, gone are the days that a name can sell a movie. Thank Goodness for that , specially in the local scene. I think that brought about the almost demise of the local industry , when the movie industry itself failed to admit that names dont always sell a movie, its having a good movie itself that makes it sell. In hollywood, actors are now considered as actors, they move from comedy to horror to drama to action. Mas matured na ang mga viewers. So kung ako sino sapalagay ko ang cool actors? Si Pen at Ping Medina,Ricky Davao, Albert Martinez, Michael DeMesa, Jay Manalo, Bembol Roco, Epi Quizon, Eddie Garcia etong mga to I think theyre cool kasi magaling sila sa field nila, talagang kahit anong role maparapist mapabakla pinoportray nila ng performance level. I'm not that versed so malamang marami pang actors na magaling, pero the good part of it is that hindi na kagaya ng dati na magsuot lang ng leather jacket eh good actor na.

pucha ang tagal ko na di nakapag blog.. parang halo halo ang naiisip ko.. anyway dahil blog.. sensha na!
