Whenever Regine is busy, it’s as sure as the sun will rise tomorrow that her fans are busy too. 
And entertainment reporters have stories to print.
Ang aga ng calltime ng press pero hanggang sa makaalis kami ay wala pa sina Regine Velasquez at Robin Padilla sa victory party ng Till I Met You kamakalawa nang gabi sa Executive Lounge ng GMA.
May taping ng Pinoy Pop Superstar si Regine at aakyat lang daw ito saglit para bumati. Si Robin ay hindi namin alam kung saan manggagaling.
Sabi sa amin ni Direk Mark Reyes, so far ay nasa P40M na ang kinikita sa takilya ng Till I Met You mula nang magbukas ito nu’ng Oktubre 11.
Naniniwala kaming malakas ang TIMY dahil maging si Mr. Ric Camaligan ng SM Cinemas ay naringgan namin (nu’ng Sabado sa IMAX premiere ng Open Season) na kumikita ang Regine-Robin movie at sa tantiya nila ay aabot ito sa P100M mark.
Ayon kay Noel Ferrer (Project Development Head of Synergy and Publicity ng GMA Films), isang Valentine movie (Suddenly It’s Magic ang working title) ang next project na inihahanda ng GMA Films.
Nabanggit ni Ms. Annette Gozon-Abrogar (GMA Films President) na mula sa two films a year ay five films (or more) na ang ipoprodyus ng GMA Films.
‘TILL I MET YOU’ TO REACH P100-M MARK
WHEN it rains, it pours. That holds true to GMA7 and Viva Films, represented by Veronique del Rosario–Ilagan (for dad, Vic del Rosario) and Annette Gozon–Abrogar, which held a thanksgiving party for the press for the success of the movie, Till I met You, starring Robin Padilla and Regine Velasquez.
Still showing in 100 theaters nationwide, Till I Met You is expected to reach the P100-million mark till the last showing day. So, what’s up? GMA7 vows to continue making high quality films in the coming years—expect 2007 to be a banner year for GMA Films, and of course, for GMA7 and QTV11 to reign supreme in all ratings surveys.
Meanwhile, Robin will be doing his next project for GMA, an Asian telenovela soon. It is an action-comedy-romance and adventure with Angel Locsin as the local filmdom’s Bad Boy’s love interest.
Not bad, not bad indeed. 
And that 40M earning is not padded, mind you. I’m also hoping it could reach the 100M mark. Fighting!
Liezl ilalakad si Robin kay Regine
IN-ANNOUNCE sa victory dinner ng Till I Met You na P40 million ang kinita ng pelikula sa five-day run. Tantiya ng mga producer, mahi-hit nito ang P100-million mark during its entire run.
Kaya, hindi lang sina Regine Velasquez at Robin Padilla ang masaya, mas happy sina Annette Abrogar ng GMA Films at Veronique del Rosario ng Viva Films.
May tampuhan sina Regine at Robin sa victory dinner dahil ’di dumating ang actor sa mall tour nila last Sunday.
Ang tagal daw binati ng una ang huli nang sunduin sa taping ng Pinoy Pop Superstar at kinailangang lumuhod ng actor bago patawarin.
Next year pa ang follow-up movie ng dalawa’t may gagawin si Regine sa Viva at may iba ring project si Robin.
Pero patuloy silang magkikita dahil may gagawing concert si Regine, na ang beneficiary ay ang foundation ni Robin para sa free education ng mga batang Muslim.
Sa December 1 gagawin ang concert sa Zirkoh at susunod ang mas malaking concert next year sa isang hotel.
Touched si Robin dahil si Regine mismo ang nag-offer na mag-concert at ito na rin ang mag-iisip ng concept. Thankful din si Robin kay Allan K dahil libreng ipagagamit ang Zirkoh para sa show.
Samantala, hindi lang namin alam kung seryoso si Robin sa sinabing tutulungan siya ng asawang si Liezl Sicangco sa panliligaw kay Regine.
Narito ang kanyang asawa at ito rin ang magsasabi kay Regine na walang magiging problema kung papayag siyang pakasal kay Robin.
Regine, nag-offer ng concert para sa foundation ni Robin
Ang Pilipino STAR Ngayon 10/18/2006Hindi malaman ni Robin Padilla ang gagawin niya nang mag-offer si Regine Velasquez sa kanya na gagawa ito ng fundraising concert para sa foundation niya na ang benipisyaryo ay ang mga batang Muslim na nangangailangan ng edukasyon. Matagal nang nasa isip ni Robin at maging ng mga kapatid niyang Muslim na hilingin ito sa ka-partner niya sa pinipilahang Till I Met You pero, nahihiya sila at bago pa ito mangyari ay nauna nang mag-offer si Songbird.
Ang concert ay magaganap sa Disyembre 1 sa Zirkoh Timog. Ipagagamit ang lugar ng libre ng may-aring si Allan K.
Hindi ito ang magiging una at huling pagtulong ni Regine kay Binoe at sa mga Muslim dahil next year, ay magku-concert uli siya para sa kanila.
Samantala, walang pagsidlan ng kaligayahan ang magka-partner dahil makaraan ang limang araw ng pagpapalabas ng Till I Met You na pinagtulungang iprodyus ng Viva at GMA Films sa mga sinehan ay kumita na ito ng P40M. May bonus para sa mga nagtrabaho sa movie, kung magkano ay depende sa total na kita nito after ng regular run nito.
Oh, puhlease. Stop that courting courting chuva already. It’s not really good for the morals of everybody. Honestly! So Regine and Robin are gonna have another movie next year? As much as I like their tandem, isn’t it too early for another team-up? But if the concept is nice and refreshing, well, okay then.
Oh, adiks out there, it seems Regine is planning another major concert? But in a hotel? Great! (Sarcastic here, hehe) The ticket prices will surely be expensive. Does Regine really want to make us fans paupers in the future?
Anyway, the Songbird really has a big heart inside her. She readily agrees and even offers her singing services to those who needs it. And for a great purpose. Uh, can she sing for my birthday? Well, just hoping, hahaha. It’s not really a significant wish, hehe.
So, Regines itenerary should be including the following;
- Countless mall shows (still) for the promo of TIMY movie and soundtrack (click this for the list of venues and dates)
- A fundraising concert for Robin’s foundation in Zirkoh on December 1 (I’m sure tix for this show is 1K a pop)
- Another (major) concert next year
- A project with Viva (hmm, wuz this? Yung movie na di matuloy-tuloy?)
Haay, I need to save money constantly.
DALAWA ang ending ng Till I Met You. Sa mga advance screening ng pelikula noon, ito rin ang palaging ipinaaalala ni Direk Mark Reyes, ang gumawa ng pelikula.
Bahala na raw ang tao kung alin ang gusto nilang ending — yon bang kay Robin Padilla mapupunta si Regine Velasquez o kay Eddie Garcia.
Kung kay Manoy Eddie, malinaw na pagtanaw ito ng malaking utang na loob kung kaya siya pipiliin ni Regine para pakasalan. Kung kay Robin naman, ‘yon ang tunay na pag-ibig.
As I’ve said, kayo na lang ang mamili ng ending na gusto ninyo.
This article is totally misleading. Sure, there were two endings, (but Regine’s character, Luisa, never ended up with Eddie Garcia’s character, Don Manuel [I prefer baby Manuel, hahaha]) but the first is like a prelude to the second, or sumthin like that. Has this writer seen the movie? Or if he has, did he understood, honestly?
Here’s the day 46 Filipino transcript of the hit Korean drama My Name is Kim Samsoon. This drama was shown Monday to Friday, 9:30pm, over GMA-7 in the Philippines.

Hello. (It seems this this the first time I said hello in all of my posts, hahaha)
Anyway, Aria Productions has announced that the “Twenty” concert of Regine, which was just held last weekend, is going to be shown, already, over GMA-7 this Sunday! Whoa! And weeeeeee.
Whoa because everyone must have asked why so sudden. I mean, it was just 96 hours fresh and it’s gonna be seen on national television already? Hmm, wuzgoinon?
Anyway, weeeeeeeeeee. I was planning to watch it again if there was gonna be a repeat, but since it’s gonna be televised, then it’s better for all the fans, those who’ve watched and those who didn’t get the chance to watch. I really, really wanna watch it again and my hopes has been answered. Thanks to Regine’s production and GMA! Yes!!
So kids, don’t forget. Twenty will be shown on Sunday, October 22, 2006, after Da De Di Do Du! 
Okay, let’s proceed to the news articles.
Regine Gives Comedy All That She’s Got
by Nestor Torre / inq7.netVIEWING Mark Reyes’ “Till I Met You,” the new Robin Padilla-Regine Velasquez starrer, is like watching two very different movies in one. The film’s first half is zany and feisty, and focuses on the “hate you” aspect of the two
lead characters’ relationship, while the second radically shifts gears to their “love you” denouement. It’s a jarring and dissonant shift, to say the least.This is what happens when filmmakers conceptualize projects that aim to be all things to all types of viewers. As a result, considerations like unity and consistency of styles and intentions fly out of the window. It’s a good thing that Regine is able to manage the shift with relative aplomb-a tribute to her versatility as a performer.
Why do Robin and Regine hate each other so much at film’s start? It turns out that Robin’s surrogate dad, hacendero Eddie Garcia, is about to marry “sosyal” Regine, but Robin smells a rotten fish and believes that Eddie’s fiancée is marrying him for his money.
Regine is scared that Robin is about to blow her cover, so she retaliates by lashing out at him and beating him in several impromptu contests, like racing, singing-and getting drunk. It’s during this last competition that Regine comes up with the movie’s best scene: When her character gets soused, she ceases to behave and talk in a sosyal manner, and reverts to the raucous lush she really is.
The scene is deliciously funny because Regine gives it everything she’s got-complete with a great, show-stopping burp in the end-and doesn’t care if she looks silly and slatternly in the process.
Unfortunately, Robin doesn’t get similarly high marks. He was able to rein in his slapstick and gimmicky tendencies in “La Visa Loca,” but they’re back in full force in his current starrer.
To make things worse, he’s surrounded with similarly slapstick-y supporting actors who add to the movie’s decibel level, milking the story’s comic situation for all the cheap laughs they’re worth.
It’s a good thing that less hysterical performers are on hand to balance the stylistic equation. As a result, despite the movie’s low or shrill moments, viewing it is a generally positive experience.
The film’s first half is particularly eventful and diverting. But the production has a rough time making the radical transition from “funny” to “serious,” and awkward moments accumulate.
Things get even dodgier when the two leads finally admit to their “forbidden” love for one another, Eddie becomes aware of it, Regine gives up her dream of living a wealthy life, and Robin is conflicted due to his
love for both his surrogate dad and his unintended intended.All this proves to be too sticky a mess to efficiently sort out, so the film’s denouement is decidedly dense. Despite this muggy conclusion, however, the movie’s score sheet still ends up with enough plus points to make it a positive viewing experience.
Wow, it’s rare that I read something positive about Regine from this writer. He always used to lash at Regine’s everything. From her songs, her way of singing, her clothes, her reactions to rumors (violent or non-violent), her movies, etc, etc. Well, it’s nice to know that he’s had a change of heart. Or did he really? Or maybe this is just a good example of a writer being paid for a good and favorable review? Hmmm, just wondering.
Regine, weird sa concert
abante-tonite
Malat-malatan si Regine Velasquez sa ikalawang gabi ng kanyang two-night Twenty concert sa Araneta Coliseum nu’ng Sabado.
Nabanggit niya sa audience na medyo emotional siya dahil itinodo niya raw ang pag-awit nu’ng first night kaya nawawala ang kanyang boses.
Akala rin niya ay naiyak na niya ang lahat nu’ng Biyernes pero hindi pa pala dahil panay pa rin ang cry niya nu’ng second night.
May dayalog din ang Songbird na naiinis siya dahil ayaw lumabas ng kanyang boses.
Pero ang ‘weird’ kay Regine, kapag nagsasalita siya ay paos-pausan siya at hirap magsalita pero pag umaawit na siya ay powerful pa rin ang singing voice niya at kaya pa rin niyang bumirit!
May ilang kanta siya sa first part ng show na medyo garalgal ang boses niya at alam mong may extra effort siyang abutin ang matataas na nota, pero hindi pa rin sumablay o pumiyok ang Songbird!
Dalawang beses siyang binigyan ng standing ovation ng Araneta crowd — una sa makalaglag-bagang rendition niya ng What Kind of Fool habang nakasalampak siya sa stage at ikalawa sa ending ng kanyang ‘winning moments’ medley na makabasag-baso ang pagbirit niya ng You’ll Never Walk Alone.
Sa duets medley ni Regine with Dennis Trillo, Erik Santos, Mark Bautista, Jed Madella, Gabby Eigenmann at Marc Tupaz (ng bandang Shamrock) ay pinakamalakas ang hiyawan at tilian kay Dennis.
“Pssstt!! Tara nga dine!” tawag ni Regine kay Robin Padilla na nakaupo malapit sa stage.
Akyat agad sa entablado si Binoe at panay ang halik kay Regine. Lumuhod pa si Robin sa stage nang magpasalamat sa mga tao para sa box-office success ng pelikula nila ng Songbird na Till I Met You.
Halos non-stop ang performance ni Regine na ang bilis magpalit ng outfit.
Ang portion lang na medyo matagal siyang nawala sa stage ay sa dance number nina Mark Herras, Marky Cielo at Migs Eugenio.
Okey ‘yung opening number na ikinuwento ni Regine ang talambuhay niya nang pakanta, at nakaka-touch ‘yung segment na dedicated niya sa madir niyang si Mommy V. at fadir niyang si Mang Gerry.
Cry si Regine at humihikbi-hikbi habang inaawit ang Bakit Ako Mahihiya? (ni Didith Reyes) na panlaban niya noon sa mga amateur singing contest.
After her last song na The Greatest Love of All ay umakyat ulit sa stage si Robin para abutan ng pumpon ng bulaklak si Regine.
Hindi na pinababa ng Songbird si Binoe at inawitan niya ito ng Till I Met You habang halos magkadikit na ang kanilang mga mukha at para bang any moment ay maglalaplapan sila o sisibasibin ng halik ang isa’t isa!
Magtu-12:00 AM na natapos ang show at nagawang awitin ni Regine ang halos lahat ng kantang pinasikat niya sa loob ng dalawampung taon.
Simple, walang bagong gimik at walang kakaiba sa 20th showbiz anniversary concert ni Regine, pero kung avid fan ka niya ay siguradong memorable sa ‘yo ang gabing ‘yon.
Isn’t she just divine? Can anyone name a singer, local or international, who can do just what Regine does all the time? Sing with all her might and still hit the highest note effortlessly even if she croaks when she speaks? Amazing, isn’t she? Janno’s description of her is so true. He said, “Regine’s worst is still the best.” Take that! You freakin’ detractors! Pfftt.

Hmmm. Only Lea, Mikee and Regine command such astronomically high amount for just a single endorsement. Talk about selling a name!
And why is Angel Locsin not included? Her face is pasted in billboards all over the country but she hasn’t been getting enough? Hmmm…
Oh, and since “Twenty” has already been held last weekend, I’ve asked permission to the generous Regine fans in RegineMultimedia.com if I can post the pictures they took from the concert. And they said yes! Yes!!

Of course, since it’s the first week of showing of the film, “Till I Met You”, news articles abound. Sometimes, I’m just too lazy to post them here daily.
Anyway, here are the news stories that are circulated around by broadsheets and tabloids around the country from Oct. 13 to 16, 2006.
True hype
A LITTLE BIT by : Remy Umerez
TILL I Met You” had a VIP screening at the Podium with the cast of the movie headed by Robin Padilla and Regine Velasquez in attendance. Is all the hype about the so-called “Movie Event of the Year” true?
Wonderfully, they all are. In the tradition of Viva and GMA’s standard of glossy filmmaking (it is a co-production between the two companies), the movie is both entertaining and touching as the drama unfolds midway. Robin is at his handsome and masculine best while Regine is simply radiant in those drop-dead gorgeous attires she wore.

‘Till I Met You’, sinira ang box-office record ng lahat ng GMA movies!
RATED A Ni Aster Amoyo / Ang Pilipino STAR Ngayon 10/13/2006
Tuwang-tuwa ang GMA Films na pinamumunuan ni Annette Gozon-Abrogar dahil higit pa sa kanilang inaasahan ang naging performance sa takilya ng pelikulang Till I Met You na tinatampukan nina Robin Padilla at Regine Velasquez mula sa direksiyon ni Mark Reyes sa pagbubukas nito nung Oct. 11.

Regine on heartaches and ‘20’
By: Danny Vibas / Content provided by: The Manila TimesRegine Velasquez celebrates her 20th year in show biz this October and November with a two-night concert on October 13 and 14 at the Araneta Coliseum and a much-awaited movie with Robin Padilla slated to be shown next month.
And how is the Songbird of Asia taking her 20th year in show biz as a singer, actress, TV host and concert and record producer?
Joyfully, gratefully, meditatively—and with some pains and hurts on the side.

Sinners, saints and lovers
By Rito Asilo / Inquirer 10/13/2006D: Mark Reyes
S: Robin Padilla, Regine Velasquez, Eddie GarciaTRUST Mark Reyes to come up with a visually succulent, meticulously photographed feature, with toe-tapping musical numbers to boot. But, while the film is better than his recent five-hanky drama (the shallow and dragging “Eternity”), his latest production doesn’t really offer a new perspective to the boy-meets-girl formula:
Robin (who’s back in his crowd-pleasing, over-the-top acting shtick) plays Gabriel, who’s out to expose Luisa (Regine Velasquez), a mysterious grifter who intends to marry his aging, affluent benefactor, Señor Manuel (Eddie Garcia), a widower for 30 years, so she can live a life of comfort and opportunity — and to escape a sketchy past.

May appeal talaga sa madla ang tambalang Robin Padilla at Regine Velasquez. Nanood ang mga kaibigan ko sa opening day ng movie at sila mismo ang nagsabi na panalo talaga sa takilya ang Till I Met You.Marami mang butas ang script at luma man ang ginamit na formula sa movie, pero nakaaaliw pa rin itong panoorin.
Anyway, mahigit daw sa P10 million ang halaga ng bahay na ipinapagawa ngayon ni Regine sa may Quezon City.
Ayaw lang sabihin sa amin ng aming source kung ano ang design na napili ni Regine.
Ito raw ang regalo ni Regine sa sarili sa loob ng 20 years niya sa showbiz.
Huwag daw intrigahin na bigay ng kung sino o may tulong ang kung sino sa pagpapagawa na ito ng bahay ni Regine dahil mula ito mismo sa perang kinita niya.
journal.com.ph
Malat si Regine Velasquez sa second night ng kanyang Twenty concert. Hirap itong magsalita, pero ang boses, ’di nagbago. Hinintay ni Allan Diones na pumiyok ito, na hindi nangyari’t abot pa rin nito ang high notes ng mga kinanta.
Nanood si Robin Padilla at sweet pa rin sila kahit naipalabas at kumita na ang Till I Met You.
Ito na ang pinaka-emotional concert ni Regine na aming napanood sa rami ng beses niyang umiyak, lalo na nang kantahin ang Bakit Ako Mahihiya, na dedicated sa kanyang parents na naghirap para maging superstar singer siya.
Tiyak na ikinatuwa ni Regine ang two standing ovations na ibinigay ng audience at ’yung una’y nang kantahin niyang nakaupo ang What Kind of Fool.
Aliw siyang tingnan nang hubarin ang sapatos at tuloy sa pagpi-perform.
Pilipino Star Ngayon
Congratulations sa Viva Films at GMA Films dahil hindi sila nabigo sa tambalan nila Regine Velasquez at Robin Padilla.Bakit ba naman kasi inuunahan ito agad ng mga taong komo hindi sila ang producer ng movie ay agad na sinasabing hindi ito kikita.
Sana naman alisin na natin ang pagiging isip talangka. Gumagawa nga ng paraan para kumita ang industriya tapos sisiraan pa natin. Dapat ay tulung-tulong tayo sa patuloy na pagsulong ng ating industriya na tayong lahat ang nakikinabang.

May Kilig Pa Rin
Hindi kami magtataka kung bakit naging blockbuster sa takilya ang Till I Met You. May kilig factor pa rin ang tambalan nina Robin Padilla at Regine Velasquez. Isa pa maganda ang istorya na hinaluan ng drama at komedi sa kilig eksena ng dalawang bida.
The articles above just proves that Till I Met You is a certified box office hit. Regine proves once again that she’s the most bankable star in the industry.
And “Twenty”? I was there on the first night (it should have been both nights hadn’t it been for my sister who confiscated my Oct 14 tickets for herself) and I was truly overwhelmed (again) with her talent. She’s truly one in a zillion. Nobody can can stand up next to her in terms of talent and heart. My sis also told me that the second night was a blast. She used to “okray” Regine til I cry but she just admitted that she’s also a fan ever since forever and that she was just teasing me (I’m kinda soft and sensitive when it comes to anyone badmouthing Regine). She boasts that the second night maybe better than the first because there were more emotions and excitement the whole night and even though Regine was croaking when she speaks, her voice is still unfaltering. Can anyone beat that?
Ah, her house is worth 10M? Well, she’s earned that so she deserves an abode as expensive as that.
Regine, Aja aja Fighting!
Hehehe.
I had one of the most enjoyable night of my life just earlier. (It’s 2am now). And the review/praise I’m posting below is as kikay as I can get. I wanted to post a more serious one, but that wouldn’t be me, hehehe. And it would take a long time for me to finish it. So I decided to post how I usually talk, hehehe. Hope you enjoy!
Regine Velasquez’ 20 concert (A kikay report)
Waaaaaaaaaaaahhhhh, ang ganda! Sobra! To the highest Level lahat ng kanta! Yung mga gowns naman, to the most daring!
May tatlong gay impersonators at the start na paniwalang paniwala ako na si Regine yung nasa gitna. Tapos nahuli ng cue sa lipsync, hahaha. Tapos bigla lumabas si Regine from below the stage, yu kno, elevation ang dating!
Loved the music vidz. Reason Enough remix at yung HOT STUFF / Pussycat Dolls number. Ang landi ni Regine with both, eeeeeeeeeee. Hahaha.
Umpisa pa lang, naiyak na ang lola. Ay ka-touch kasi di niya daw talaga akalain na makakaabot siya sa ganoong stage ng career nya. Go Ate!!!
Tapos nagkamali siya ng umpisa sa Pangako.
“Ba-bakit ba? May lungkot sa iyong “TAO LANG” mga mata?”
Hahahaha.
The best for me yung “Bakit Ako Mahihiya”. Mommy V was crying on the monitor na malaki. Regine was also teary-eyed, no, actually, naiyak talaga siya, when she introduced the song. Dedicated daw sa parents nya. Huhuhuhu.Second best yung encore! Yung hotsuff/pussycat nga, with the ever-seductive giling-giling ng lola! Ay! Then yung parting medley nya of “Greatest Love Of All” at “I Believe” with the luhod luhod thanks to the LORD. Lab ya Regine!!! The best lahat! Hehehe. Maski yung dance number ni Marky, Mark at Miggy, maganda. Kasi nga they danced to the tune of Reason Enough/You Made Me Stronger remix.And I also love the compiled videos of Regine kissing scenes. From Cristopher to Aga. Exception lang yung kay Richard (Hanggang Ngayon) at Uge (Captain barbell). Siningle out pa yung first stage kiss nya with Ariel, sabay sabi niya na “Lalo tuloy akong naiiyak, huhuhu.” Naiiyak na kasi siya before that part. Pero bawi naman siya ng, “Pero meron na namang iba ngayon”. She had a merry time teasing the audience. Sobrang kagat naman kami, hehehe.
There was another video compilation of Regine crying scenes. Waaah, ang cute nung una niyang mga tv drama projects. Chonang chona, hahaha.
Dennis, Jed, Gabby, Mark, Mark (Shamrock), Eric sang the duets with her. It was a great number. Ang galing nilang lahat. Dennis is improving.
And Regine’s impromptu spiels were really funny. When Mang Gerry was walking at the front, sabi niya, “Mang Gerry, saan ka pupunta?” LOLZ. then when she introduced Gerard Salonga, she said Hi to him as soon as she finished her intro. Kaso di napansin ni Gerard, so nagpapansin ang lola. Sinutsutan ba naman si Gerard, hahaha. Ang kikay talaga. Then when her Dadalhin number with Cesar Aguas finished, the large monitor at the back showed Cesar sporting a longer hair. Ang lakas ng tawa ni Regine sa nakita niya. Ang kulet, pagtawanan daw yung tao, hahaha.
Haay, ang dami pa. But to sum it all up, the song numbers were all fantastic. Spectacular! Regine didn’t falter, not even on a single note. Everything was perfect, even with the wrong lyrics on the side. Of course, she’s forgiven for that. It even adds enjoyment, coz she laughed at herself.
And her appearance? Direk Louie said it best and I agree a hundred percent. She looked like a goddess. A very sexy, seductive goddess.
Ayun! Honestly, this concert is the best that I’ve seen of her. Malas lang at di ko napanood yung R2K ng live, di pa kasi ako adik noon. But you can compare 20 with R2K. Parehong maganda at magaling!
Regine, Happy Anniversary! All the best!

News, news, news!!! When will this end? Not that I’m complaining, hehe. Keep it coming!
The Song Bird on love and Mr. Right
Regine celebrates her two decades in show business this October and she starts the celebration in a big way, with this highly anticipated second team up with Robin Padilla.
“We were together for almost a month and I had a great time working with him again and I am happy to know him better,” says Velasquez. “He thought that I was a snobbish person before because after each shoot, I would go straight home to Bulacan. What he failed to realize was na-shy ako because of him being the Robin Padilla. Imagine! Robin Padilla was my screen partner!”
Rumors are spreading that Padilla proposed during the filming. Regine clarifies, “We were talking about so many topics and then unexpectedly, he asked me what I thought of the Muslim’s culture of marrying several women. I answered him quite frankly that I will not be comfortable with such a setup because if I do get married, I want it na ako lang. He was taken aback by my answer so what he was planning to ask me that time, he didn’t muster enough courage to continue,” answers Regine.
“I don’t think I can share my man with someone else. I am not trying to be a hypocrite about this. I do not want people to take it all wrong that I am judging people who are in situations wherein her partner has other partners. This is just my belief as a person, as a woman. I do not see myself going through one relationship after another just for the heck of it. Parang nakakahinayang kasi. I do not believe doon sa collect and collect then select. It is as if you already gave yourself to so many men. You might say that it is only through previous relationships that you get to learn about love and life but for me, I would rather wait and be with that one right person. However, if I do have one chance of happiness and I know that I have that choice, it is better for me to just wait for him, I don’t mind waiting for as long as I’m sure he is the one,” Regine explains.
The actress believes one knows the Right One by instinct, “gut feel.” “You just know. All of us have that. I think its God’s gift to us. We should listen to our gut feel, to that inner voice in you’re heart, and you must admit that at all times, that voice or your gut is saying what is right. I will know if it is him. There is this weird vibe, ‘yun parang ma-a-adik ka when you finally meet,’’ she ends with a laugh.
To end all the pesky talks of her being linked to this or that married man, Regine reveals she has a four-year-old relationship with a ‘mystery man’ and, according to her, she has been giving clues about her “boyfriend,” but it seems that the press refuses to believe.
“Seriously speaking, I am in a relationship and I’m very happy. I hope you understand why I cannot reveal him just yet. You all know my story. You know how public my life has become. And the very little privacy that I have, I want to treasure it and just keep it. What is important is that I am happy. I am in love. I am committed. Hindi na virgin ang lola niyo, Matagal na!” concludes Velasquez with a guffaw.
So how does this mystery man make her happy? “As a human being, I’m very easy to please and I’m such a mababaw person. In my career as a woman, daughter and as a sister, I made sure that I was able to do what I must do. I am very grateful that I made most of my dreams into realities. In a way, I am already complete. When he arrived in my life, he did not complete me for I feel complete already. He was not my missing piece. He makes my life very colorful. We do not have a perfect relationship. We have our good days and bad days. I just feel really good that he is around for me to share my successes.”
“I have to admit to myself that it is not easy to become an artista and I want to spare him from all the intrigues and all the relentless questioning and doubting. For the past 20 years, all I ever think about are the people, my audience, and my fans. Do not get me wrong, but I’m truly grateful to them. Kaya lang now, I think it’s just fair that I think of myself muna. I know that you guys understand and you know that one of these days, I will let him know all of you. Honestly, he wants to go public, but I explained to him why I want to keep him for myself muna for now,” concludes Regine.
Till I Met You opens nationwide in major theaters starting Oct. 11.
Ay! Same as the earlier articles. Anyway, goodluck to your lovelife Regine. May “he” be the one.
Regine celebrates 20 years in show biz
By Nini Valera / Inquirer 10/12/2006
REGINE Velasquez has worked non-stop for the past 20 years, enduring trends and time and coming to terms with life.If there were regrets, Regine said she looks at them as part of learning.
In the face of a whirlwind of activities for her movie with Robin Padilla, GMA Films’ “Till I Met You,” Regine called a press conference for her concert “RV 20” on the week typhoon Milenyo wrought its fury on the country.
“Not everybody has reached this stage,” Regine told Inquirer Entertainment, referring to her 20th year in the business. “At first, I didn’t want to celebrate it, but on second thought, I decided to hold this concert. It’s an event, anyway. So why not celebrate?”
But a celebration for something as momentous as 20 years in the business was hard for Regine to do. For the fourth time, she had to produce a concert herself.
“It’s sad,” she said. “The state of the (entertainment) industry has made it so difficult for concerts to be mounted. The artists have to do it themselves. It’s difficult to look for sponsors. Thank God, none of my productions have flopped.”
Regine pulled out all the stops in mounting this concert, produced to the tune of P10 million. The Araneta Coliseum, where it will be staged on Oct. 13 and 14 will be transformed into a Roman Coliseum, with a grand staircase from the center stage to the upper box gallery where Regine will make her grand entrance.
To produce the show, she has reunited with longtime mentor Ronnie Henares, whom she called “my second father.”
Ronnie discovered Regine when she guested on “Penthouse Live” 20 years ago. Then named Chona Velasquez, Regine was plucked from obscurity by Ronnie, who for 15 years, guided her career and molded her into an artist. He also gave her the name Regine.
“There are few regrets in my life,” she admitted. “I never got to attend a high school prom or ball. I have not finished college, but I’m sure I can go back to school if I want to.
“There was also a time that I imagined myself to be a teacher. But that time is now gone. I can’t imagine myself anymore as anything else but a singer.”
At a young age, Regine used her singing talent to support her family.
“My father (Mang Gerry) really, really worked hard, but he couldn’t make ends meet,” she recalled. “He has scoliosis, and he worked in construction. My brother and sisters might not remember this, but we had a very hard time. I saw the desperation on my parents’ faces. I knew I could do something to help out. I knew I could sing.
“I feel so blessed that I was able to do this for my family. I am happy that God chose me to be the one to help my family. I enjoy singing, so why not use it to help my family? Why not use this gift?”
For 20 years, Regine has cultivated this gift of song. Forays into acting were few and far between.
“I knew my limitations,” she said. “I can’t be a good dramatic actress. So I deliberately chose roles that were a little bit of drama and comedy. But I like to make movies. Like my singing, acting created opportunities for me.”
But she chooses to sing more than anything else.
“It’s what I do best,” she said.
Weee, happy anniversary, Chona. Personally, Regine has been my favorite, unconsciously, ever since I was in high school. and it only went full fledged in 2000, just during her R2K concert. It’s been six years. Haaayyy…
Don’t miss “RV 20,” Regine Velasquez’s concert celebrating her 20 years in showbiz at the Araneta Coliseum on Oct. 13 and 14 .The Songbird’s “love affair” with her fave photographer Jun de Leon will be showcased.
There will also be a medley of her duets with Jose Mari Chan, Martin Nievera, Gary Valenciano, Ogie Alcasid, Janno Gibbs, Paul Anka and Jackie Cheung with a modern twist and a medley of her movie themes.
For tickets, call 9115555 or 9267868.
