Why do you like riding hippos? I ride anything I get! Athlone couple fight [VIDEO]

Why do you like riding hippos?

This video of a cheating couple fighting on the street has been making the rounds online. Apparently it's popular in Ireland. I am laughing so hard I'm literally in tears. I feel sorry for the infant. Vicky Pollard is dat chu?



The $64 million question is: why do you like riding hippos? Why do you ride women that look like men? Answer me.

"I ride anything I get!"

HYSTERICAL!!!!

Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Mother's Day to all the mums out there.

Don't look at me like that Ricky, I'm telling your father when he gets home. Can't you for once just do it in the shower like every other four-year old girl? I don't know why feel you must fuck up the sheets. You're not the one having to wash them.

Here's the original video.



Enjoy!

Sonny Vandevelde for the Win!

Sonny Vandevelde for the Win!

It's not every day I ask you guys for favours but my friend Sonny Vandevelde, snapper extraordinaire, needs your help. I'm sure you've heard of that Island Reef job (dubbed as the 'best job in the world') contest and I want him to get shortlisted as a finalist.

Deadline ends in FOUR days so be sure to visit THIS link and give him a good ol' 5-star rating. It shouldn't take more than 20 seconds of your time -- come on, Sonny is absolutely PERFECT for this job. Also, it would be cool if you forward that link to everyone you know. The more views and high ratings, the merrier.

Thanks guys and I hope Sonny wins this one.

So it ends...

So it ends...

Just a quick note to let y'all know I'm back.



It's 2:14AM on a Tuesday and I'm going through over 3,000 photos etc.

IDENTIFY THIS MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

IDENTIFY THIS MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Be honest now ok? JUST BY LOOKING AT THAT PHOTO, would you hit it? YES OR NO? I want to know -- don't click yet, I need you to take note of your answer.

OK NOW. Click click click!

Atheist Bus in London - There's Probably No God.

Praise Jesus

Allelujah! You know these buses that are currently going around London at the moment? Well, it looks like they're gonna have similar campaigns in Italy, Australia, Spain and Canada.

I'd love to see these buses in the Philippine where a huge majority of the people were brainwashed by the Catholic Church. Personally-speaking, I have no major problems with people having faith in "god". Live and let live! However, when they start rubbing their personal religious beliefs to your face or when they use such beliefs to go on a moral high horse, that's when it gets really annoying. I don't know about you but I often find religious people the biggest hypocrites on the face of the planet. Question to catholic gays -- where's your god when you're sucking dick and nuts? Oh yes. Jesus saves!

Middle of Nowhere

Middle of Nowhere

It's 11:55PM and I'm here at the bed & breakfast in Tagaytay. We wanted to have a few drinks after dinner (that is, if you consider fast food Japanese/Teriyaki Boy "dinner") but there's no decent bar within walking distance so we ended up going to this dive bar called Kontiki. I had one drink but I had so much fun. It was the only bar in the nearby area and it's SO obvious the people who go there (tourists included) are alcoholics. It was HYSTERICAL!!!



Awww. Charice Pempengco is dat chu? BTW, that girl was adrable. There was this chubby guy who sang there and he had a great voice. It was kinda hard to imagine it was him singing. I thought that was funny. Anyway, I wish we stayed longer but I have so many things to do tonight. One drink was all I need. Ah well.

2008 Aries Horoscope and Monthly/Yearly Astrology Forecasts

2008 Aries Horoscope and Monthly/Yearly Astrology Forecasts

Between you and me, I'm not really a big astrology fan. Remember the days of Miss Cleo? Like her hired phone "psychics", I have a feeling some of these "astrologers" are nothing but excellent wordsmiths. Sure they have a way with words but how accurate are their predictions? I know horoscopes are for entertainment purposes only...

Well, thanks to Astrologyzone, it was only until last year that I got into the whole horoscope and astrology hoo-ha. Susan Miller's forecasts are quite spot-on. I kid you not. Some are dead accurate, a few are near-misses but still. I also LOVE that super cool celebrity astrology site, AstroCrack.

So what's in store for Aries in 2009? I browsed a few astrology sites and took some of the interesting bits and pieces. Click click click!

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!

23 minutes to go. Thought I'd bid adieu to 2009 with some mancandy, courtesy of polaroid king, the amazing Mr. Jeremy Kost. I love Jeremy. He's the one who took those ferosha videos for New York magazine. Think Coco Rocha. Let me present you our New Year's treat -- his name is Ellis McCreadie and he's with Major.

Happy, happy new year to all! I wish you the best of everything for 2009.

As for me, well, I want a tall, well-built and well, well-everything man next year. Failing that, I'm happy if someone sent me that beautiful ostrich Asprey bag in the mail. Who needs a man when you've got Asprey? kthxbye.

Happy holidays to you and yours!

Happy Holidays!

Happy Holidays!

Happy holidays my dear minions! I wish you all the best of health, happiness, peace and prosperity.



Wherever you are in the world, thank you so much to everyone who supported me throughout an amazing and colourful 2008. I hope next year will be just as bright and wonderful... or even better.



I love you all. Please enjoy the festive season. Always remember: eating is cheating!

Just kidding.

Kisses, hugs, champagne and chinchilla.

And the winner is...

And the winner is...

I apologize for the delay in announcing the winner of my dream destination contest -- proof that I'm really the world's worst procrastinator. A big congrats to Jonathan B. who lives in Narrangansett, Rhode Island USA. He was the first person who was able to guess my dream destination right. He emailed his answer within minutes of me posting my entry. Except for the very few who got it wrong (wtf Copenhagen? wtf South Korea? better luck next time...), I suppose most of my readers are smarter than what I thought. Hah!

Jonathan sent a funny photo of him in Taipei when I asked for his mailing address.

So where is my dream destination? The answer is: New Delhi, India. OMG I've *always* wanted to go there but never really had the chance (or should I say the balls) to do so over the years because opting for the usual places seemed to be the easiest option. Nevertheless, I'm gonna make an effort to try to visit there next year (set this in stone) for a vacation.

Why New Delhi, why India you ask?

If memory serves me right, I remember going to a dinner party many, many years ago (at an Indian restaurant of all places) and travel was one of the topics at the table. Everyone was talking about how they wanna go to this and that place yaddi yaddi yadda. When it was my turn, I told the group I wanna go to India. Then this girl went into a crazy SHOCK-HORROR mode and went all "eeew why do you wanna go there? it's so smelly, it's filled with homeless people, people with no limbs roam around the streets, blah blah blah". She went on and on and on with her tirade, not giving me the opportunity to answer her question. I quickly asked her,  "well, have you been to India before? where do you wanna go next"? She replied by saying no she's never been and she wants to go to LA to visit family and friends etc... so I snapped, "you go girlfriend. Go to LA while I soak up some culture in India."

What's so amusing though is how she made all these comments about poverty in India when the bloody restaurant we were at is situated smack in the center of what used to be (or so I thought) one of the red light districts of Manila where homeless children and beggars roam the streets etc.

Anyway, I think India's so rich in culture, history and tradition. The food. The architecture. The sights and sounds. I have this folder in my computer filled with all these magical images I've saved and I look at them when I'm in the mood to dream! Like China and Russia, India has changed tremendously over the recent years -- shit, they even have their own Vogue and that speaks for itself, no? Going there for a visit, I'm sure, is gonna be on heck of a great experience.

Dolce & Gabbana Rosary

Dolce & Gabbana Rosary

I love stylists. I really do. They always have the coolest shit you won't find elsewhere like this Dolce & Gabbana rosary, a real one, owned by a stylist I met in Kuala Lumpur named Daniel Henry. I thought this was the most hilarious thing I've ever seen in the longest time. Talk about bizarro to the max.

There we were, sitting inside a car on the way back to the hotel after a shoot. Traffic was horrible and chatting helped to pass time. One of the things we talked about was religion. I think it's amazing how different cultures and different faiths are in harmony in Malaysia, a predominantly Muslim country. I asked whether there are Chinese Muslims in Malaysia -- the answer is yes.

I also asked Daniel and Vince, both of Chinese descent, whether they're Muslims and Vince told me he's Catholic. Daniel on the other hand, probed his Vivienne Westwood bag and handed me what looked like a rosary and said "here's your answer". Lo and behold it's not just an ordinary rosary but a Dolce & Gabbana one. It was hysterical. I couldn't believe it!

As far as I'm concerned, I've lost faith in the Catholic church. OK fine, I'm probably the first person to summon our Father come Christmas time to get nice presents or hail Mary who is full of grace when the bills arrive but really, shame on the Catholic church for meddling in political and civil affairs... and shame on the politicians who use the church and their influence for their political agendas. I recently read in the news that Manila Mayor Alfredo Lim is against the promotion of contraceptive use, saying "it kills lives, destroy families and destroys health". What rubbish! Back in January, I wrote how depressed I got over the last holiday season because of it. Overpopulation is the exact reason why we're in the dumps and it angers me so much that a country so tiny such as the Philippines, is the 12th most populous nation on the planet. I don't know about you but that's appalling. 

In the name of Domenico (Dolce) and Stefano (Gabbana), may your god help you all.
