in the midst of a controversy
Yo! wazzup now? I've been blog hopping since yesterday and know what I visited 35 blogs today (how did I know? cos I wrote down the urls.) OMG. And there's one thing I noticed: They've been criticizing this new show on TV5 - LIPGLOSS an adaptation of the hit TV series Gossip Girl and follows the life of the students o an ultra-exclusivehigh school through the school's "unofficial" website. Although its not confirmed that it's the Philippine version of GG I think there's a resemblance since the storyline is somewhat the same as the ultra-famous version in the US. It stars Mikee Lee, Rodjun Cruz, Saab Magalona, Maxine Eigenman, Sam Concepcion, and many more :)) Though Saab Magalona wrote in her blog that its not like GG. "Everyone’s just been hating on it." Magalona says and suggested just to chill.
On the contrary people why don't we give chance to this show? Instead of looking at the worst side of it, why don't we peek at the brighter side and appreciate it eventhough you think it's jologs or corny or trying hard or wanna-be. I can't blame you because cos this is not the first time, remember tabing ilog from Dawson's Creek? I betcha you've watched it :) And hey We are Filipinos :) We should love our own though there are hundreds of reasons not to love our locals (shows) hehe :) Where's the patronism?. Or let's just put it this way better yet If you can't stand it remember this:IF YOU HAVE NOTHING GOOD TO SAY, SHUT UP! It will help, I'm telling you! :)) these are some comments I've read:

This is too ambitious attempt. The Filipino crowd won't be able to reach th high end show Gossip Girl
No offense but I wonder why our TV writers can't think of anything a bit more original rather than just copying something that was popular on the other countries
Putek. ang corny. olats ito.
Filipinos can't truly create an original show. Too bad. Producers are just trying to create a show using someone else's creativity and originality.
Ok so I only typed few. My goodness I don't want to comment anymore. I'll just shut up. I haven't watched the pilot episode but on Saturday I promise I'll mark my planner so I can see this one :) I'll let my JOLOGS side out for a while :)
On much more lighter side, I have baby Dani's latest shots :) And btw again She's a she:
