GOOD friend of
Cesar Montano said he feels sad for
the actor who, to date, has not yet won back his wife, Sunshine Cruz.
Sunshine and her children are still staying in the condo unit
in Greenhills, which Cesar is renting for them. Cesar is free to visit his three
daughters anytime he wants to. Sunshine has given him the privilege to "borrow"
the three girls.
"Pero, siyempre pa," said Cesar’s friend, "iba pa
rin ‘yong kasama mo ang iyong pamilya. At iyan ang obviously
pinakamimithi ngayon ni Cesar. Ang muling mabuo ang kanyang pamilya."
Cesar is host of the upcoming game cum singing show on ABS-CBN,
"The Singing Bee."

Marianna del Rillo, the Brazillian girl previously rumored to
have caused the break-up between Cesar and Sunshine no longer feels affected,
even if she is still being questioned about it. She insists she has a clear
conscience. And that’s what matters to her.
Marianna is now a talent of Star Magic, the talent arm of
ABS-CBN. And for her first project as a Star Magic talent, she is cast as one of
the lead stars of the new comedy-adventure teleserye, Mars Ravelo’s "Komiks
Presents Kapitan Boom."
Marianna will work with fellow Star Magic talent, Jon Avila,
who plays the title role. Also in the cast are Maja Salvador and Jay-R Siaboc.
In co-starring roles are senior stars Gloria Sevilla, Bembol Roco and William
Lorenzo.
Marianna is playing the role of Cheska, best friend of Maja
Salvador, who plays the character, Melody. Jay-R is the alter-ego of Jon who
becomes the superhero who fumbles on his mission through a number of mishaps and
disasters.
Gloria portrays Jay-R’s lola. William is Jay-R’s dad.
He is a witty inventor. Bembol is Hector Domas Quinoz, a loving husband and
industrialist.
Directing "Kapitan Boom" are Fransco Mortiz and Dondon
Santos.

Bayani Agbayani is planning a trip to Canada with his wife,
Lenleng, and their three elder daughters. The youngest, also a girl, born last
October, will be left behind with Bayani’s mom.
"She’s still too young to travel," Bayani explains.
Bayani, if you recall, lost his passport when he was
victimized by a bukas-kotse gang. His driver had parked his BMW in front
of a restaurant which Bayani owns with a friend in Roxas Boulevard, Manila.
"Ang bilis ng mga pangyayari," Bayani related. "Iniwanan
sandali ng driver ko ang kotse to relieve himself inside the
restaurant. Nang bumalik siya, nakita niyang bukas na ang kotse at wala na sa
likuran ‘yong back-pack ko, which contained my passport which
carried my US visa.
"Kaya nga, ‘di ako nakapanood ng boxing match nina
Pacquiao at Marquez, kahit pa I had a ticket courtesy of Manny."
When Bayani decided to re-apply for a US visa, he decided to
bring his three girls with her.
"Naisip kasi namin ni Lenleng na since nasa
Canada na kami, we could proceed to the US with the children.
"I’m glad they were all given a US visa," Bayani added.
