  • THE NEW AGENDA ISSUE

    The Big Bang and then Some: ‘The Secrets of Hotel 88’ and the Theory of Evolution

    When the doors of Pinoy Big Brother closed on the Celebrity Collab Edition, what remained wasn’t just a set of former housemates ready to collect checks for their next project. What emerged was a batch that redefined how Filipino audiences relate to celebrity. After capturing fleets of adoring fans, banking on unfiltered vulnerability, the stars of the historic edition face their biggest challenge yet: scripted drama. In "The Secrets of Hotel 88," they must prove they can transform into characters while keeping the authenticity that made them stars. Will they rise to the occasion, or will the demands of showbiz change them forever?

    New Sound, New Heights: Jenzen Guino Strikes the Right Chord

Now, with a string of recent releases backed by a new label and artistic home, he harnesses his inherent flair for telling stories through heartfelt hymns and catchy melodies, along with lyricism that’s reflective of his youth and with it, his universe of truth. Five years into the game, Guino marks himself ready for take off and onto higher ground with a crescendo of new pursuits from upcoming new hits and a promise to shift gears and take his artistry to new, greater heights.

    As the noise shifts from the chaos of day commuters to the rustles of night owls, Manila, then until now, lives through stories—both of the loud and the unspoken.

    Crowning Glory: Let the Divine Divas Show You How to Mother a Movement

    Legacy isn’t just what you leave behind. Sometimes, it’s what you pour into others, night after night, lash after lash.

  • THE HOT DAMN! ISSUE

    A Golden Streak: The Education of Emilio Daez

    Treading his path to prominence from social media favorite—having been anointed by a phalanx of supporters as “golden retriever” in a sea of Internet Boyfriends—young corporate professional-turned-aspiring actor, Emilio Daez, talks about his recent and very noticeable golden streak. Hot on the heels of a brief stint on the two-decade-old pop culture juggernaut, Pinoy Big Brother, following his first few jabs at acting on primetime television, Daez flexes that boyish charm, rolls up his sleeves, and dips his toes into uncharted waters, armed only with a passion and growing familiarity with an industry so far removed from the world of numbers and structure he has long been immersed in.

    The Art of Being Gab Pangilinan

    A theater mainstay for years, award-winning actress Gab Pangilinan has trailed her storied path from an ensemble actor to a celebrated lead with marked roles like that of Roxane in “Mula sa Buwan”, to what is now a landmark portrayal of Joy in “Ang Huling El Bimbo”. Charting her trajectory, it goes without saying that her arrival and eventual rise to theater superstar status is every bit divinely ordained—coming at a time when a future in and of the live theater appeared bleak and uncertain. Now, while reluctantly seated on the pantheon of Philippine theater greats as one of its most recognizable faces today, there’s no denying that the art of being Gab Pangilinan shines not in collecting applause from the laurels of her smash hits but in forging a path to solidify the foundations of the very community that helped harness and amplify her voice—on and off the stage.
