SM City Sucat sets the stage for the Philippine Jiu Jitsu Gi/No Gi National Championships

SM City Sucat is all set for high-adrenaline action as it hosts the Philippine Jiu Jitsu Gi/No Gi National Championships on August 29 and 30, held at the 3F Event Center. Over 200 jiu jitsu champs from all corners of the globe, including Vietnam, South Korea, Singapore, Hong Kong, France, Australia and the US, are competing in the BJJ Gi and No Gi divisions, and Juniors and Children’s categories.

Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is a martial art, combat sport, and a self-defense system that focuses on grappling and especially ground fighting. It was developed to allow a smaller, weaker person to protect him or herself from a larger, stronger opponent by using proper technique and leverage.

After rounds of intense combat and strategic moves, skillful champions emerged victories. Among the gold winners were Wilander Ordinado of Team Deftac Riberio , male adults white belt division, and Vanessa Lu of Team Fabricio, female adults white belt division.

Lock in a weekend to remember and be a part of the Philippine Jiu Jitsu Gi / No Gi National Championships at SM City Sucat. Know more about the art of jiu jitsu and keep tabs on the exciting combat by following SM City Sucat on Instagram and Twitter (@smcity_sucat), and on Facebook (SMCitySucat).

Acoustic balladeer TJ MONTERDE launches new single “Tulad Mo”

PolyEast Records acoustic singer/songwriter TJ Monterde is set to launch the new single and music video of “Tulad Mo” on Saturday, August 15 on PolyEast Records YouTube Channel (https://www.youtube.com/polyeastrecords).

It’s been two years since his last studio album and TJ is back dropping the digital release of the new single “Tulad Mo”. With his latest effort, the YouTube singer-songwriter traded in the acoustic ballads from his debut album for a breezy, mid-tempo charm.

“I've always loved acoustic and I will always love acoustic music. But this time, it's quite different compared to my previous acoustic songs. I tried reinventing to do more up-beat, pop-ish kind of feel. You know, the same music you sing when you’re happy” said the 25-year old acoustic singer.

#SlumbookSeries: Juan Karlos Labajo

Last time, I saw Juan Karlos Labajo was when they were introduced to the media for their The Voice Kids concert a year ago. Now he is releasing his album "JK" under MCA Music, and he is taller than me!

Of course, this was the perfect opportunity for another episode of #SlumbookSeries which he went and actively answered the questions. He actually misread one of the question which turned out very hilarious! What was the question, check out the video.

The Accidental Loveteam of #AlDub

Eat Bulaga is 36 years in TV and has done a lot of things to keep things new and interesting to viewers, but they were also surprised with the the emergence of the 'accidental loveteam" of Yaya Dub Smash (Maine Mendoza) and Alden "Bae" Richards.

What is supposed to be just a small stint for All for Juan segment, Yaya Dub is the companion of Lola Nidora in one of the barangays that they visited. Alden was one of the guest for Eat Bulaga. Then things got cheesy when they started making "moves" showing interest in each other on live TV, which was an instant hit. Yaya Dub will do her dubsmash moves, while Alden does his charming look.

Robin and Mariel Expecting Twins or Triplets!?

I recently viewed the latest instagram post of Mariel  and Robin Padilla (I both follow them) and saw an surprising post that Mariel is now pregnant. It has been a busy year for the couple with projects of movies, television, and even tracing the Padilla roots in Spain.

Now that they are back, it was recently revealed that Mariel was admitted into the hospital, and later on posted the ultrasound pictures of their child. And what is more interesting is that they might be expecting twins or even triplets!
