The couple first met in May 2011 during Shamcey's birthday party. From then on, the two went on dates and eventually developed a relationship. Two years later, Shamcey and Lloyd got engaged.

Congratulations and best wishes, Shamcey and Lloyd!

Kung Fu Divas Starring Ai Ai Delas Alas and Marian Rivera Opens October 2

Two of the country’s “box-office divas” from rival TV networks—Kapamilya Comedy Queen AiAi delas Alas and Kapuso Primetime Queen Marian Rivera—will join forces in this year’s funniest epic comedy-adventure film titled “Kung Fu Divas,” which will hit cinemas nationwide on October 2 (Wednesday).

In celebration of its 20th anniversary, Star Cinema continues its two-decade tradition of sharing stories of pure laughter and entertainment to the Filipino audience by teaming up with co-producers Reality Entertainment and O & Co. Picture Factory to produce a world-class Onat Diaz masterpiece.

“Masayang-masaya kami ni Marian na part kami ng 20th anniversary celebration ng Star Cinema. Happy din ako dahil nakasama for the first time ang isa sa mga reyna ng GMA,” said AiAi. “Sa totoo lang, isa ito sa pinakamahirap na pelikulang ginawa ko–acting-wise and action-wise. Nag-training din kasi kami dito for martial arts kaya mahirap. Pero sa ganda ng movie, sulit ‘yung hirap. Fulfilled na fulfilled ako.”

Like AiAi, Marian takes pride in being part of “Kung Fu Divas.” In fact, she applauded upon learning about their milestone movie. “Happy ako na nagkakaroon ng ganitong pagkakaisa para sa isang pelikula at kabilang ako doon sa moment na ‘yun,” Marian expressed. “Napaka-memorable po nito sa akin dahil ang daming bago sa akin dito. Bukod sa unang pagsasama po namin ito ni Ate AiAi, first time ko rin pong nakatrabaho si Direk Onat, first time kong magkaroon ng comedy-action na pelikula, at syempre first movie ko po ito from Star Cinema.”

Aside from their newfound friendship, “Kung Fu Divas” was close to the heart of AiAi and Marian because of its top caliber concept and execution.

“Dahil sa movie na ito, mare-realize ng viewers na napaka-talented ng mga Pinoy at kaya nating gumawa ng pang-Hollywood na materyal,” AiAi said. “Marami na akong comedy films na nagawa pero ibang klase ang katatawanan dito, hindi mo mae-explain. Kailangan talaga siyang panoorin.”

“Bumilib talaga ako sa sa special effects ng movie. First time kong makagawa ng isang pelikula na halos lahat ng mga eksena ay nasa chroma,” added Marian. “Pero siyempre hindi lang sila maaaliw sa movie, madami rin silang matututunan lalo na tungkol sa pag-ibig at pamilya.”

“Kung Fu Divas” is a story about two bitter rivals in “Hiyas ng Dalampasigan” beauty pageant namely Charlotte (AiAi) and Samantha (Marian), who will be forced to become allies after an unexpected turn of events that put the lives of many in danger.

Can you set aside rivalry and sacrifice your own life for ‘world peace?’

Joining AiAi and Marian in “Kung Fu Divas” are Roderick Paulate, Edward Mendez, Bianca Manalo, Precious Lara Quigaman, Nova Villa and Gloria Diaz.

Don’t miss the world-class special effects, lessons, and the new flavor of comedy from the fresh dynamic duo of AiAi and Marian in the epic comedy-adventure film “Kung Fu Divas” showing on cinemas all over the country on October 2, 2013.

John Prats and Bianca Manalo Break Up Confirmed!

John Prats and Bianca Manalo had already broken up. The two had called it quits after what could be the best seven-month relationship they had as a couple. This was confirmed by Bianca Manalo herself, May 30 on the late night newscast, Bandila. 

Bianca Manalo told Boy Abunda via a phone interview that it was John Prats who initiated the break up  two weeks ago. 

Rumor has it that a third party was the cause of the John-Bianca break-up. Some reports pointed Sexbomb girl Sunshine Garcia as the cause of the break up. Sunshine, who is a member of the cast of Banana Split together with John Prats, is rumored to have caused arguments between John and Bianca. Rumors also claimed that John and Sunshine became close since working together and were going out with friends.

Sunshine, however denied the allegations. In her interview with Bandila, the sexbomb dancer explained that photos of her and John Prats showing sweetness to each other were all work-related. 

“Kay Bianca, nahihiya ako sa kanya kase hindi ko alam kung paano lumabas ang balita na ito. Wala akong idea kung bakit, kung sino, bakit ako. Sa natatandaan ko, wala kaming pictures ni John Prats, na sasabihin mong sweet na hindi kaugnay sa trabaho. Kung may picture man kami, siguro iyon yung mga scenes.” Sunshine said in her Bandila interview, May 30.

Sunshine said that people might have misunderstood her closeness with John since the latter is very easy to get along with. “Sweet si Praty. Mahilig siyang mang-asar. Siya yung tao hindi ka mahihirapan pakisamahan siya,” added Sunshine.

Meanwhile, Bianca Manalo also refuted the rumors that Sunshine had something to do with the break up. She, however did not disclose the real reason why she and John split. John Prats is yet to comment about the issue.
