HOLLYWOOD dreamer Liza Soberano was in town. Nowhere in sight though is boyfriend (?) Enrique Gil who usually fetches Liza whenever she arrives. There are speculations, “na hiwalay na ang dalawa.”

But there is another thing they talk about Liza. The road to Hollywood is not easy for Asians.

Singer-actor James Reid is managing Liza but his Hollywood connection is not enough for her career to prosper. All she has achieved is a supporting role in a TV series and be photograped with some celebs. Her coming home was meant for an endorsement but ended up with some controversies due to her words about former manager and TV network.. Could mean she should recharge to continue her quest for Hollywood fame. Filipina actress, Dolly de Leon, who achieved some honor after winning in international award giving bodies, came to her rescue. Dolly says we should give Liza a chance if she really want another chance at stardom, and this time, in Hollywood. There’s no harm in trying and malay natin, one day, makuha rin ni Liza ang pangarap niya?

Their love story is an open secret. What fans are waiting is the admission that Coco and Julia are now parents to a baby boy. Or girl? Rumor is loud, but lips are sealed.

Sarah still a hot item

SARAH Geronimo celebrated her 20th year in showbiz with a sold-out concert. And for the first time all her dance moves were not choreograped by G-Force’s Teacher Georcelle.

What when wrong? Their artistic creativity allegedly differ. Or, nagsawa na ba si Sarah sa style ni Teacher Georcelle?

Another talk is about Sarah’s parents who were visibly absent in her concert. Hindi pa rin daw talaga napapatawad ng mga ito si Sarah. Well, whatever. Sabi nga, time heals all wounds, but it seems taking so long for them. Kung anu’t anuman, hubby Matteo Guidicelli felt so proud of the success of his wife. Is having a baby their next agenda? Baka pag may baby na maghilom na ang mga sugat ng mga Geronimo. Basta ang importante, pinag-uusapan pa rin si Sarah.
