Heart Evangelista defends Marian Rivera from basher's comparison
Heart Evangelista came to the defense of fellow Kapuso actress Marian Rivera after a netizen compared them in a TikTok post. On Wednesday, July 23, 2025, Heart shared photos with friends Anne Curtis and Solenn Heussaff taken during the store opening of a French luxury brand. In the comments section, one user threw shade by writing: 'Ganito ang class Marian—sa kilos, sa salita, at sa pag-uugali.' Heart took notice of the comment and replied, 'Wag ganon. Marian is a woman of her own.' Netizens praised Heart for her graceful and respectful response, with many expressing joy over what they believe is a sign that any past tension between the two stars has finally been resolved. More than a decade has passed since Marian and Heart figured in a reported conflict during the filming of their 2011 movie Temptation Island. Rumors of tension first surfaced on X (formerly Twitter) and in blind items, sparking speculations of a rift between the two. However, Heart denied the issue at the time in a tweet dated June 11, 2011, where she wrote: 'Let's not make a big fuss. Marian and I are okay. Showbiz is showbiz so, Heartworld, wag na tayo mag-away-away.'

Netflix sets 'Love Is Blind,' 'Selling Sunset' and other reality TV show premiere dates
If you're a fan of Netflix reality shows like "Love is Blind," "Selling Sunset" and "Perfect Match," we've got great news: Your fall TV schedule is about to be stacked. Yes, the popular streaming service has officially announced premiere dates for a half-dozen of its most popular reality titles from August through December of this year. On the lineup is the third season of "Perfect Match," coming to the platform on Friday, August 1. In the romantic competition series, "contestants will pair up and take part in scandalous challenges designed to test compatibility and stir up drama," per Netflix. As per usual, the cast will feature some familiar faces from the reality-TV realm, including singles from "Love is Blind," "Too Hot to Handle," "Temptation Island" and more. Later that month is the second season of "Love is Blind: UK" on Wednesday, August 13: "In the new season, UK and Ireland-based singles who want to be loved for who they are — rather than what they look like — will take a less conventional approach to modern dating by choosing someone to marry without ever meeting them," per the streamer. October will see the premieres of both USA's "Love is Blind" season 9 (dropping on Wednesday, October 1) as well as "Selling Sunset" season 9 (Wednesday, October 29). In terms of the latter, the new episodes bring not only new high-stakes real estate listings but also new faces: Sandra Vergara joins the O Group this season, vying for hot properties alongside returning cast members like Chrishell Stause, Emma Hernan, Nicole Young, Amanza Smith and more. (Jason and Brett Oppenheim, the brokers behind the O Group, will also be back for season 9.) "Selling the OC," which is a spinoff series of "Selling Sunset," will also be returning for its fourth installment on Netflix on Wednesday, November 12. The offshoot series will also see new agents adding some tension to the property-pushing mix, with Fiona Belle, Ashtyn Zerboni, and Kaylee Ricciardi joining the season 4 cast. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. And the real estate-themed drama will continue into December with the premiere of the second edition of "Owning Manhattan" on Friday, December 5. The new season will continue following powerhouse business mogul Ryan Serhant and his brokerage SERHANT through the 'highest highs and lowest lows' of New York City real estate. 'It's an emotional and physical roller coaster,' Serhant told Tudum about season 2. 'There are records broken — $50 and $60 million purchases. There is commercial development in the hundreds of millions of dollars.' Sounds expensive and juicy! Given that "Love Island USA" is now over, our TV schedules are wide open for new Netflix reality drama — happy to see some of the streamer's best shows back to fill the void this summer and beyond.

Why This New Netflix Talent Show Is Already Rife With Controversy
While reality TV has faced a cultural reckoning over the past few years after the tragic deaths of Caroline Flack and former Love Islanders Mike Thalassitis and Sophie Gradon, it's clear the genre is no where close to being done. Streaming giants have only created more iterations since, from Temptation Island, to Next Gen NYC , and now we have Building the Band - a new talent-based reality TV series where singers battle it out to form the winning band. Many have taken issue with this particular reality series because of one of the famous faces appearing in it: Liam Payne. The late One Direction singer filmed his scenes days before he died aged 31, after falling from a hotel balcony. Critics have questioned whether it's ethical to still go ahead with the series and continue to broadcast Payne's scenes after this tragic event. According to Deadline, Netflix spoke with the singer's family first and the resultant conversation led to the decision to go ahead with the show. In a statement they said his family had 'reviewed the series and [were] supportive of his inclusion'. Earlier this week, Payne's sister Ruth Gibbins said on Instagram this week she is 'heartbroken' that Payne will never see how 'brilliant' he is on it. The series follows 50 singers as they compete to form bands without ever seeing each other. ' Building the Band is a brave and bold undertaking for all involved as we hand over power to the singers themselves to form their own band based on chemistry first,' its executive producer Cat Lawson said. 'With looks out of the equation, can they create a deeper connection with their bandmates? With limited bands, there are difficult decisions and heart-stopping moments along the way, but ultimately the outcome is truly amazing, with bands forming who in my opinion are worthy of the very biggest stage!' He's a guest judge on the series alongside Kelly Rowland and Nicole Scherzinger. The show is hosted by the Backstreet Boys' AJ McLean will host. Payne's involvement in the show was first announced last August, just two months before he died. The show has a total of ten episodes, and Liam will only appear from episode seven onwards. Deadline reported that filming wrapped on the show by October 2024, and that the final three episodes were shot live in August of that year in a Manchester studio.
