Alex Gonzaga Transfers to ABS-CBN, Returns to Her Kapamilya

Kapatid primetime princess Alex Gonzaga will leave TV-5 to return to ABS-CBN, several reports have confirmed. Alex, who is the sister of multimedia star Toni Gonzaga is originally a Kapamilya before transferring to the country's number 3 network in 2008.

Alex (born Catherine Gonzaga) is introduced in the defunct ABS-CBN teen sitcom Let's Go and Gokada Go, where her current screen name came from. She also went on to be a part of the Philippine remake of My Girl starring Kim and Gerald before becoming one of TV-5's prime star on its revamp. While a Kapatid, she was given huge projects such as Babaeng Hampaslupa and P.S. I Love Yove You.

Alex was last seen in the eco-fantaserye Enchanted Garden. According to reports, a Kapatid executive is blocking Alex's next project in the network. Since her contract expired last December 2012 and TV-5 has no offer at the moment, Alex and her manager, Mommy Pinty Gonzaga decided to accept the offer of ABS-CBN.   

There were reports that TV-5 big boss Manny Pangilinan, upon learning Alex's jumping to ABS-CBN, asked for a meeting with her camp for possible projects, one of which is a teleserye with Sharon Cuneta. However, it was too late since Alex has already negotiated a deal with ABS-CBN.

Alex Gonzaga is set to sign a contract with ABS-CBN on April 15. Her upcoming projects in the Kapamilya network include a light drama series (rumored to be a musical-serye opposite Jericho Rosales) and a movie with Star Cinema.

Angel Locsin on Working with Angelica Panganiban Again: "Huwag muna natin pag-usapan"

Angel Locsin avoids discussing her alleged rift with One More Try co-star Angelica Panganiban. The two-time Star Awards for Movies Best Actress however denied that the said rift was the reason why Angelica Panganiban is no longer part of their supposed film with Bea Alonzo and Toni Gonzaga which starts shooting soon.

"Naisip ko nga no, parang nagkaron nga ng kulay ngayon. Pero hindi namin iniisip kasi hindi kami ganon magisip kapag may katrabaho ka. Basta kami masaya lang kami, excited lang kami na bigyan kami ng trabaho,” Angel told Push.com.ph.

The gap between Angel and Angelica allegedly stemmed from an incident while filming for their MMFF 2012 entry. Rumors said that Angel was badly hurt after Angelica slapped and pulled her hair in the movie's confrontation scene.

Angel told the website that she and Angelica have not met until now and will not elaborate more about her working relationship with the Apoy Sa Dagat lead star since it will not do good on both parties.

When asked if she is willing to work with Angelica again, Angel replied: "Huwag na muna natin pagusapan."

Meanwhile, Angelica Panganiban was replaced by Shaina Magdayao in the upcoming Star Cinema movie. Enchong Dee will also be part of the movie. The cast had their story conference recently and Angel said she's very excited to start shooting for the film which will be directed by Cathy Garcia-Molina.

"Nung binabasa ko 'yung script, konsepto pa lang parang ang saya-saya panoorin. Makaka-relate ang mga tao. Ang magkakapatid kasi kahit gaano kaiba ang personalities, mayroon pa ring similarities. Paano kaya namin ito gagawin? Na-imagine ko na talaga. Ang ganda," she said.

Toni Gonzaga Hosts The Voice Philippines; Robi Domingo, Social Media Correspondent

Ultimate Multimedia Star Toni Gonzaga is officially the host of The Voice of the Philippines, the country’s edition of the worldwide hit singing competition The Voice. Meanwhile, PBB alumnus Robi Domingo will be the backstage correspondent of the show, hosting the social media part of the program covering Facebook and Twitter.

Toni will be the Pinoy counterpart of Carson Daly who hosts the more popularly known US edition of The Voice with Christina Aguilera, Adam Levine, Cee Lo Green, and Blake Shelton as celebrity coaches while Robi will be the counterpart of Christina Milian.

The Voice is a unique singing competition where auditions are based solely on vocal ability. In the first stage called the “blind auditions,” all four coaches must listen to the artist without facing him or her and must press their respective buttons if they want the artist to be part of the team they will mentor. Hitting the button will also trigger the coach’s chairs to swivel so that the coach can finally see the face behind the voice.

The coaches get to choose the contestants to form their respective teams.  They will then dedicate themselves to develop their singers via mentoring and will pit two of their own team members in the second round called the “battle rounds.”

After the vocal face-off, the coach must then choose who among the singers will advance. Those who will survive in the battle rounds will proceed to the third stage— the live performance shows— wherein viewers can save them from elimination by voting.

In the end, each coach will have one star artist left to compete against the other team’s finalists and the last one standing will be named “The Voice of the Philippines.”

Unlike other ABS-CBN-produced talent shows such as Pilipinas Got Talent and The X Factor Philippines, contestants of “The Voice of the Philippines” can make it through the different rounds mostly because of their vocal ability.

Let the voice of the Philippines be heard! For audition details like the show’s official Facebook page at www.facebook.com/TheVoiceABSCBN or follow @TheVoiceABSCBN on Twitter.

Congratulations TONI GONZAGA host of The Voice Philippines ☺
— Joyce A. Ramirez (@PublicityAsia) January 19, 2013

Robi Domingo, on the other hand, is one who will definitely follow the footsteps of Luis Manzano when it comes to hosting being trained in two PBB editions (Unlimited and Teen Edition 4), MYX as one of its former VJs, ASAP chill-out and Sarah G Live. Robi is also one of the hosts of I Dare You (Season 2).
