Aga Muhlach: Now that he’s easing into his 40s, it’s time for him to focus on his acting legacy and come up with a truly exceptional film performance that will make him a contender again in movie award derbies. Karylle: Stop smiling — it can be dangerous to other people’s feelings. Charice: International success is great, but don’t overdo the birit— your singing voice will be adversely affected. Also, you’re only in your mid-teens, so easy on the eye makeup. Nora Aunor: You must make a new movie in the Philippines in 2009, to remind everyone of your special acting gift. Sharon Cuneta: Stop talking about it, and actually lose weight, asap. Richard Gutierrez: Stop essaying roles beyond your key; play characters you can do best. Marian Rivera: You come on too strong in defending yourself against detractors. Soften your approach, or you’ll end up as a villain in people’s perception. Anne Curtis: Don’t be a victim of miscasting, or your acting triumphs will be questioned. Mo Twister: Learn that hosting a talk show requires more than just asking provocative questions and rattling the skeletons in people’s closets. Ruffa Gutierrez: Take vocal placement lessons to add greater variety and liveliness to your rather monotonous speaking voice. Phillip Salvador: In your dramatic performances, learn to distinguish between judicious intensity and livid anger. Edu Manzano: Host a new TV talk show — that’s what you do best. John Lloyd Cruz: Stop biting your lips to look cute. You’re already “cute”; don’t push it. Sarah Geronimo: Take care of your singing voice, it’s not good as it used to be, due to overuse. Also, if you’re going to star in another romantic comedy, fall in love first, so your performance will be more believable. Mariel Rodriguez: Relax. Don’t come across as a Kewpie doll all the time. Carmen Soo: After your successful TV series, try to star in a Filipino movie in 2009, to continue teaching young actresses here how to act in a natural and believable way. Rufa Mae Quinto: Steer clear of controversies and scandals—for a change. Otherwise, people will keep using you as a convenient target, even if you tearfully protest your innocence. Noni Buencamino: Enough of “interesting” cameo and supporting roles. Convince an indie filmmaker to cast you as a lead this year, in a role as big as your talent. Christmas with Pia and Ryan Last Dec. 24, as our family got together to celebrate Christmas Eve, we surfed the TV channels in search of programs that would enhance our Yuletide spirit. EWTN had a Christmas concert, but it was too stuffily classical to be truly heartwarming. Still, in the absence of better and more seasonably appropriate entertainment fare, we made the televised concert our entertainment for the evening. The following day, we belatedly struck Yuletide gold: On “Shoptalk,” Pia Hontiveros had Ryan Cayabyab for her guest, and Ryan delighted viewers with snippets of his Christmas songs. Finally, here was the heartwarming holiday show we were looking for, and we thoroughly enjoyed the special program. So, obviously, did Pia, who must have found it a welcome musical breather from her show’s usual focus on— well, shoptalk. As the Christmas edition of “Shoptalk” unfolded, Pia and Ryan got along famously, as she asked the right questions that elicited the most insightful and personally revealing replies from Ryan.
