Us Girls' August Awards 2011 nominees bared

Studio 23's "Us Girls" has revealed the nominees for its 3rd August Awards (2011) and among the nominees are controversial stars like Marian Rivera, Dingdong Dantes, Heart Evangelista and more.

You've heard the news about Heart Evangelista vs Marian Rivera over Dingdong Dantes, but for Us Girls' August Awards 2011 to be presented next month, they're not competing against each other, as all three of them are nominated in different categories.

Dingdong Dantes is nominated as Most Fashionable Male alongside John Lloyd Cruz, Gerald Anderson, Sam Milby, Jericho Rosales, Jake Cuenca and some other, while girlfriend Marian Rivera is nominated again as Face of the Year along with Bea Alonzo, Angelica Panganiban, Maja Salvador, Jennylyn Mercado and more.

It's already Marian's 2nd consecutive year to get nominated in the said category. During the 2010 August Awards, she got nominated as Face of the Year but lost to Kim Chiu and Kristine Hermosa who tied for the award.

Heart Evangelista meanwhile gets a nod as Most Fashionable Female. Also nominated are Kim Chiu, Rhian Ramos, Georgina Wilson, Isabelle Daza, etc.

Even Heart's boyfriend Daniel Matsunaga is also nominated, but in another category (Bodies of the Year).

Angel Locsin and John Lloyd Cruz in Head and Shoulders TVC

Angel Locsin's new leading man in her newest Head and Shoulders TVC is not Phil Younghusband, but it's her "Imortal" leading man John Lloyd Cruz.

In February, Angel Locsin already announced that someone will join her in a new Head and Shoulders TVC.

"may bagong kapamilya ang Head & Shoulders!☺ abangan!♥" Angel Locsin (@143redangel) posted on Twitter last February 26.

Two names came out as the possible new endorser of Head and Shoulders Anti-Drandruff Shampoo: John Lloyd Cruz, who's paired with Angel in "Imortal", and Phil Younghusband, who was being reported then as Angel's new admirer.

And just last night, it has been officially revealed. It's no other than John Lloyd Cruz, who's making a big shift, from endorsing Clear Anti-Dandruff Shampoo for 2 years, he's now endorsing its rival brand.

If you can still remember, there was an issue before between John Lloyd Cruz and Clear with regard to the Clear TVC in 2009 which supposedly starred John Lloyd with Piolo Pascual and Dingdong Dantes.

John Lloyd reportedly backed out because he was unhappy with the exposure that Clear was supposed to give to him in the new commercial. Jericho Rosales replaced him in the said TVC.

In all fairness to John Lloyd, he accepted Head and Shoulders offer to be its new endorser, more than a year since his contract with Clear expired in Dec. 2009.

Watch Angel Locsin and John Lloyd Cruz in the new Head and Shoulders TVC:

The new Head & Shoulders TVC of Lloydie and Gel came out 2 weeks after their show "Imortal" aired its successful finale last April 29.

Do you think the release of the new TVC is kinda late? It just shows that the two's successful loveteam still continues even if Imortal is over already.

Perhaps, a movie for them could be next.

"Bumuhos Man Ang Ulan" music video released!

The official music video of "Bumuhos Man Ang Ulan" is now out and has been uploaded already on Youtube yesterday by Star Records.

"Bumuhos Man Ang Ulan" is the beautiful theme song of ABS-CBN's "Green Rose" composed and performed by its lead star Jericho Rosales.

And joining Jericho in the music video is no less than his "Green Rose" leading lady Anne Curtis.

Watch the official music video of "Bumuhos Man Ang Ulan":


I super love this song.

"Bumuhos Man Ang Ulan" solidifies Jericho Rosales' status as an OPM hitmaker, as the song charted #1 in radio music countdowns. I think it's only with this song that people started describing Echo, no longer just an "actor", but as the "singer-actor".

You can vote for this song on MYX so it will be included in its music countdown. Just text, MYX VOTE [title of the song] and send it to 2366.
