Michael Sager meets 'Freakier Friday' star Manny Jacinto
Michael Sager just met his fellow 'Vancouver boy' Manny Jacinto! On Instagram Stories, the Sparkle star shared a photo of himself with the Filipino-Canadian Hollywood rising star at an event. 'Vancouver boys,' Michael wrote in the caption, tagging Manny. In case you missed it, Michael was born in the Philippines but spent most of his formative years growing up in Vancouver, Canada. Similarly, Manny was also born in the Philippines and immigrated to Canada with his family when he was just three years old. Manny was in the country for the Philippine premiere of 'Freakier Friday' where he stars as Eric.

'Into the Woods' opens to a crowd of luminaries with much aplomb
"Into the Woods" is finally here, opening to a crowd of luminaries Wednesday night, which included National Artist Ricky Lee, international darling Dolly De Leon, direk Jose Javier Reyes, showbiz personalities Judy Ann Santos, Ruffa Gutierrez, and Christian Bautista to name just a few. The hype is well-deserved. Despite the occasional malfunctioning mics, a material that's a wee bit too long, and a second act hovering on messy, Theater Group Asia's staging of "Into the Woods" is a testament to Filipino talent through and through. Because the beloved Stephen Sondheim musical — three-hours long with a sophisticated musical sense — means serious business for performers. It takes more than talent to deliver those challenging lines with an even more challenging phrasing. Apart from the memory work, there is also the physical strength and endurance required as well as intense breathing work but the cast nailed it to a T. Of course, Lea Salonga is a given. But even then, the Tony award-winning theater actress manages impress and and exceed expectations. And even amid the makeup and prosthetics — perhaps precisely because of them — she is a joy to watch. Eugene Domingo, more popular as a comedienne than a singer, manages to hold it out on her own with her singing, as Nic Chien, who must be the recipient of extra attention given he is Lea Salonga's child. Mark Bautista (Rapunzel's prince) Nyoy Volante (Baker), Mikkie Bradshaw Volante (Baker's wife), Jamie Wilson (Cinderella's Father and The Steward), Carla Guevara Laforteza (The Giant and Granny), and Rody Vera (narrator), theater veterans that they are, showcased not just their talent but their professionalism and more importantly, their years of experience. Teetin Villanueva gave Little Red Riding Hood a whole lot of personality that's so unique and cool and funny, she reminds us of Chun-Li from "Street Fighter." It reads like a stretch, we know, but her hair is fixed in two buns and she casually plays with balisong so maybe the comparison is not as far out. Arielle Jacobs meanwhile is a fitting actor to play Cinderella — comedic where it matters, graceful where it is expected, and beautiful all around. But it's Josh dela Cruz who is the real revelation, playing both as Prince Charming and The Wolf to perfection. His expressions are spot on, his comedic flare evident, and wow, what a voice! He acts with his whole body, making his characters extra funny, extra punchy, and extra everything. His scenes with Mark, equally a commanding actor, are among the best in the three-hour bonanza, and their duet on "Agony," among the most memorable. That said, much love must be given to the 19-piece orchestra, which provided not just the musical background and the accompaniment to song numbers, but the sound effects as well, making even the small scenes pivotal and important. The gala performance featured Gerald Salonga helming the orchestra. "Into the Woods" runs until August 31. Tickets are already sold out but if by some miracle you manage to come across them, please do yourselves a favor and buy them. It will be three hours of topnotch entertainment that'll make you forget about the real world for a while. — GMA Integrated News

Lea Salonga: 1st Pinay on Hollywood Walk of Fame — 'Still quite stunned about it'
'Kinda great to be the first Pinay to get it!' Lea Salonga says about receiving her own star in the Hollywood Walk of Fame. 'Truly an honor.' In a career spanning decades and continents, Tony Award-winning performer Lea Salonga has made a home in the hearts of Filipino theatergoers in the Philippines and around the world. Two Filipina Americans describe what Lea meant to them growing up. "Since I was a little girl," reminisced artist Ann Constantino Beck, "I have loved Lea Salonga's rendition of 'A Whole New World' with Brad Kane. I continue to enjoy it today. She is an artist I greatly admire." Jessy Daing, a director at NYC's Metropolitan Transportation Authority, remembers Lea "since I was a kid" when she watched her film a Sanrio commercial in a Manila mall. "I distinctly recall hearing her flawless, pitch perfect voice at such a young age, and I just knew then that this little girl was destined for greatness." Lea has made such stirring impact in the hearts of many young Filipina girls who grew up with her music and idolized her immeasurable talent. This beloved artist who has conquered Broadway and Disney is set to receive one of the entertainment industry's most iconic honors—a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Other luminaries have been there before her—namely Bruno Mars, and Rob Schneider–but to be the first Filipina? "Kinda great to be the first Pinay to get it!" she tells The FilAm in an email interview. "Truly an honor." "It's one of those things you think about and dream about, but never really think it will come true. And yet here we are! It's wonderful!" she continued. She found out the big news on coming home from travel and still suffering from jet lag. "I woke up very early that morning, around 5:46 a.m., and went on social media. There were already posts congratulating me for the star, but I didn't believe them right away. It was when my manager sent a text saying, 'Call me before you look at any social media, email or text' that it really hit home that it was true! I mean, wow! I'm still quite stunned about it all, to be honest!" Lea Salonga sings the US National Anthem at New York Yankees game. Courtesy: New York Yankees On October 20, Lea will headline a concert called "Stage, Screen & Everything in Between," at the Town Hall. In this show she has done in the UK and the Philippines, she will be singing the "familiar hits from the worlds of the stage and the movies." Musical theatre fans will experience stage and screen classics from "Miss Saigon," "Les Misérables," "Aladdin" and "Mulan," plus new-found favorites from the critically acclaimed Broadway and West End hit "Old Friends," Broadway blockbusters, pop classics, all from her celebrated career. She added, "The format is familiar, but I don't think I've had this much fun in a traditional concert setting. We put so much love into creating this set list, and there's also so much love whenever we perform it. It's not just a concert—it's a love letter to musical storytelling, crafted with passion by Salonga and her team." To Lea, performing since the age of 7 on Philippine stage and television, has been "such a fun profession." While others might consider her childhood unusual, she sees it differently. "Normalcy is relative…I don't know what it's like to not be a performer, so as far as I'm concerned, what I'm doing is normal in my world," she said. The intrigues and pettiness in the industry, she has learned to mute and brush aside "those things (that) come from small people with smaller minds." She is grateful for all the luck and goodwill that have come her way and to have worked with the "most incredible people" on and off stage. "I honestly just have the best time. Acting and singing are fun! Getting to disappear into a character and play dress-up for a few hours brings me immeasurable joy, and I hope the audience sees that. I wouldn't have lasted this long if it wasn't fun," she said. Though her voice is one of the most recognizable in the world of musical theater, Salonga's journey has experienced a rare vocal hurdle. "While I was in 'Miss Saigon' in London, there was a time when I didn't actually know what was happening with my voice. It was failing me, and I wasn't equipped to handle it." She took a break under medical advice and returned to singing only after intensive voice training. The experience reshaped her approach: "I learned how to sing properly, heal, get stronger, and keep going." If she was not a performing artist, what would she like to do? At the age of 9, she had announced she "wanted to be a psychiatrist or in today's parlance, a therapist. Perhaps I was just curious about what made human beings tick. Today, I'm an actor with that same curiosity. So perhaps in that way, I fulfilled my childhood ambitions." — The FilAm
