GMA Network Airs the Bigger, Fiercer and Tougher "The Clash" Season 3 on October 3

Isa, laban sa lahat!

Beginning October 3, a new breed of talented contenders will battle it out towards becoming the next singing sensation on GMA Network’s all-original musical competition – The Clash Season 3! 

Known for its exciting twists at every round, this season promises fiercer and tougher singing face-offs where only the best of the best Clashers all over the country will make it to the top. 

Returning as Clash Masters are Total Heartthrob Rayver Cruz and Asia’s Pop Diva Julie Anne San Jose who are both eager to be back on-stage as the competition’s hosts. 

“Masaya and excited kami,” Rayver said. “Alam namin na mahirap magbalik-trabaho lalo na sa panahon ngayon pero nandito kami para ihatid ang minahal ng viewers na mga pasabog ng The Clash at para ipakilala ang bagong mahuhusay na Clashers.” 

Julie Anne shared that preparations for the show were taken to another level to ensure that strict safety protocols were followed, “Unang-una is to observe physical distancing and follow the guidelines and safety protocols. Preparations had to be taken to another level. Wala kaming audience, mas kaunti ‘yung tao. Nevertheless, I’m very excited about the Clashers’ performances.” 

Also making their way backstage again to get to know the Clashers are Journey Hosts Rita Daniela and Ken Chan. 

Rita expressed her excitement to learn the contestants’ off-cam stories, “I’m more than happy because I get to work again with the people that I love! I really can’t wait to hear all the wonderful stories of our Clashers. I’m excited to be their ate.” 

Likewise, Ken is also looking forward to meeting the new group of Clashers. “Na-miss ko ‘yung pakikisalamuha namin sa Clashers at pati na rin sa mga pamilya nila,” he shared. “Kaya ngayong season 3 ay excited akong malaman ang kuwento ng bawat isa sa kanila.” 

Taking their seats anew as The Clash Panel are Asia’s Nightingale Lani Misalucha, Asia’s Romantic Balladeer Christian Bautista, and Comedy Concert Queen AiAi Delas Alas. 

“I always look for someone with a certain uniqueness in his/her voice, someone who sings with genuine emotion, and has impressive stage presence and an amazing personality,” Lani said. “I’m absolutely excited to see and experience what's going to happen in this season.” 

For Christian, the vocal battles will be even more intense, “The intensity of judging, guiding, and constructively building new champions is very exciting. It will really be more intense and nerve-wracking for the contestants because we are facing tough times right now.” 

Aiai, in turn, is also stoked to be back in the studio, “Nasa ‘new normal’ na tayo kaya we have the opportunity to do things differently and better. The Clash is always big, and I’m sure it will be even bigger ngayon dahil sa mahuhusay na contestants. Hindi lang ako excited, I am ablaze with energy para sa The Clash Season 3!”

Six Thai Actors to Watch Out For in iWant's "I'm Tee, Me Too"

Streaming service iWant TFC brings together popular Thai stars Off, Gun, Tay, New, Krist, and Singto in the all-new Thai series “I’m Tee, Me Too” where they will unexpectedly find friendship and people to celebrate life with, premiering this Friday (September 18) at 10:30 PM simultaneous with its Thailand airing. 

The series, which will be available to standard and premium subscribers in the Philippines in both its Filipino-dubbed and original Thai version with English subtitles, follows six guys living under one roof who have the same nickname but different personalities and ticks. 

The story begins with architecture student WaTee (Kirst), who suddenly finds himself alone after his mother passes away and seeks the help of tenants in order to pay the bills and keep their house. 

Here is where he meets TeeRex (Gun), an only child who fears living alone, TeeDet, (New) a workout buff who is terrified of beautiful women, MaeTee (Off), an imaginative communications student who is paranoid of ghosts, MaiTee (Singto), the resident cook who is afraid of good news, and TeeDo (Tay), a musician who despises the sound of chewing. 

With six months to endure each other’s company, will they only worsen each other’s unhealthy traits or help each other become the best version of themselves? 

Here are a few things you should know about the six Thai stars and their characters in the series:

1. Krist Perawat as WaTee 

PersonaliTEE and unique traits: As someone dealing with trust issues, WaTee hates seeking help from others but is willing to sacrifice in order to keep his childhood home and the happy memories that once lived in it. Now dependent on the five tenants to be able to pay his mortgage, all while dealing with the recent loss of his mother, he remains reserved and refuses to open up to his new housemates.

Where you might have spotted Krist: Viewers must be excited to see Krist in another Thai series as he has already held two fan meets in the Philippines back in 2018 and 2019.


2. Singto Prachaya as MaiTee 

PersonaliTEE and unique traits: MaiTee is someone who is scared of receiving good news and getting disappointed. He is also a neat freak germaphobe who loves to cook but ends up getting on the nerves of his housemates because of how organized and clean he wants everything to be.

Where you might have spotted Singto: As the other half of KristSingto, one of the most popular boys love (BL) pairs in Thailand, he has also been to the Philippines twice with Krist. You can also recognize him as he recently starred as Mes in the eight-part Thai romance drama “Come To Me,” which is now streaming for free on iWant TFC.


3. Gun Atthapan as TeeRex 

PersonaliTEE and unique traits: TeeRex is the ever-reliable housemate who is always willing to lend a helping hand to others. Sharing the space with the five other tenants gives him joy as he is an only child who is scared of living alone. As much as he loves the company of others, you will not really hear much from him since he is a cellphone addict who only likes to communicate through social media messenger apps.

Where you might have spotted Gun: Viewers can also look forward to more of Gun, who visited the Philippines in 2018, as he stars in “Theory of Love” where he plays filmology major Third. It streams soon on iWant TFC.


4. Off Jumpol as MaeTee 

PersonaliTEE and unique traits: MaeTee uses his creativity to his advantage as a communication arts major who writes about love during his free time. Though he may seem invasive of other people’s space, this is only because he is extremely terrified of ghosts as he tries to deal with his imaginary encounters with them.

Where you might have spotted Off: Like Gun, Off also appears in the well-known Thai drama series “Theory of Love.” Viewers will also recognize the popular BL pair from a meet-and-greet with Filipino fans in 2018.


5. Tay Tawan as TeeDo 

PersonaliTEE and unique traits: When things go wrong, the housemates count on TeeDo and his patient disposition to solve the problem and mediate the tension. He is the seventh son who comes from a well-known family of musicians and turns into a different person when he hears the sound of a person’s chewing.

Where you might have spotted Tay: Pinoys are already familiar with Tay since he joined the iWant original Japanese game show “Find the Wasabi in Nagoya,” where he competed with Filipino actor Khalil Ramos. He visited the Philippines in 2018 for a meet-and-greet with fans and he also starred in “Dark Blue Kiss,” which will soon be available for streaming on iWant TFC.


6. New Thitipoom as TeeDet 

PersonaliTEE and unique traits: TeeDet is easy-going, just not around beautiful women because he suffers from gynophobia, an intense fear of beautiful women. Another thing about this forestry student is he declines to take part in certain activities because he is afraid of failing and being criticized afterwards. He is also the type to nag everyone around him even if he himself cannot get the job done.

Where you might have spotted New: New also starred in “Dark Blue Kiss” and has also brought joy to his fans when he visited Manila in 2018 for his fan event with Tay.

“I’m Tee, Me Too” is the fourth Thai series streaming on iWant TFC after “2gether,” ”Still 2gether, and “Come to Me” as a result of ABS-CBN’s partnership with Thai content company GMMTV. Singto also stars in “Come to Me,” while Tay joined iWant’s original Japanese global game Show “Find the Wasabi,” where Filipino actor Khalil Ramos was named the winner. 

Starting September 18, standard and premium subscribers of iWant TFC in the Philippines can stream “I’m Tee, Me Too” every Friday at 10:30 PM on the iWant TFC app (iOs and Android) or iwanttfc.com.

GMA Network Presents a Star-Studded Drama Anthology ‘I Can See You’ feat. the Biggest and Brightest Kapuso stars

Do you ever get the sense that you are being watched? Or that you are not alone? 

If you have ever felt like being spied upon whether by someone or something, more often than not, your instincts are correct. Researchers believe that humans are sensitive to gaze as it signals intimacy as well as danger; two of the things we need to pay attention to for our own well-being. 

Beginning September 28, GMA Network raises the bar with an exceptional and one-of-a-kind program featuring the biggest and brightest Kapuso stars in the drama anthology ‘I Can See You’ on the Telebabad block. 

This unique drama anthology which highlights four mini-series – Love On The Balcony, High Rise Lovers, The Promise, and Truly. Madly. Deadly. – dwells on its common visual storytelling mnemonic device which is the use of a camera as a witness to the tales of love and mystery from everyday people; hence the title – I Can See You. 

The ground-breaking program gifts viewers with compelling, contemporary, and unique stories produced by four different teams in a remarkable four-week viewing experience. 

In observance of anti-COVID-19 protocols alongside the Network’s precautionary measures, the cast and crew of the show underwent RT-PCR tests, lock-in tapings and strictly practiced government-mandated safety and health protocols on the set. 

Kick-starting the drama anthology is “Love On The Balcony” top-billed by Asia's Multimedia Star Alden Richards, Kapuso hunk Pancho Magno, and Kapuso leading Lady Jasmine Curtis-Smith. It tells the timely story of a wedding videographer, Gio (Alden), who crosses paths with a frontline nurse, Lea (Jasmine). Uninspired and creatively drained, Gio is encouraged by his business partner and friend Val (Pancho) to search for a potential fling during quarantine. After their unfortunate encounter, romance eventually blossoms between Gio and Lea amidst the pandemic. Is this the beginning of a beautiful chapter in their love story or is it just destiny’s way of putting people in our lives for a purpose? 

Completing the cast are Denise Barbacena and Shyr Valdez. Love On The Balcony is directed by LA Madridejos which airs beginning September 28. 

Heating up primetime TV viewing on October 5 is the second installment of the series “High Rise Lovers” which stars Kapuso Premier Drama Actress Lovi Poe, actress-beauty queen Winwyn Marquez and multitalented Kapuso actor Tom Rodriguez. It follows the story of married couple Samantha (Lovi) and Luis (Tom) whose relationship dwindles as their opposing goals in life get the best of them. After moving into a new condominium unit, Samantha continues to strive for a big promotion at work while Luis, an unemployed contractor, is forced to accept a renovation job for another occupant – the mysterious and sultry Ysabel (Winwyn). Will Luis yield to the temptation of a new lover who comforts his bruised ego or will Samantha realize that her marriage is still worth saving? 

Also starring in the episode are Teresa Loyzaga and Kenneth “Tetay” Ocampo. High Rise Lovers is under the helm of Monti Parungao. 

Bannered by talented Kapuso stars Andrea Torres, Yasmien Kurdi, Benjamin Alves and Paolo Contis, “The Promise” gives viewers more reasons to believe in the power of love this October 12. The story begins with a rich widowed man named Frank (Paolo) who loses his passion for life and became a recluse after losing his wife Clarisse (Yasmien) from an accident. When Jude (Benjamin), his cousin and right-hand man in the company, visits him in the lake house where he stays at, Frank takes an interest in the latter’s girlfriend Ivy (Andrea), an aspiring artist who is willing to do anything to take her family out of poverty. 

Also playing an exciting role in this series is Maey Bautista. The Promise is directed by Zig Dulay. 

Finally, set to bring mystery and romance is the last installment “Truly. Madly. Deadly.” headlined by Kapuso Drama King Dennis Trillo, versatile Kapuso actress Rhian Ramos, and Ultimate Star Jennylyn Mercado premiering on October 19. Coleen (Jennylyn) is a professional woman who, after being ridiculed online for a scandal with a married man, moves out of the city and works in a remote resort where she meets the mysterious resident IT guy named Drew (Dennis). Life seems to be going well for the recovering Coleen until her best friend turned enemy Abby (Rhian) shows up and her past begins to haunt her once again. 

Joining the talented cast of this episode is Jhoana Marie Tan and with the special participation of Ruby Rodriguez. Truly. Madly. Deadly is directed by Jorron Lee Monroy. 

Don’t miss out on GMA Network’s newest and much-awaited offering this year ‘I Can See You’ beginning September 28, right after Encantadia, on the Telebabad block.

Fans of MNL48 Gush Over the #MNL48SaveTheDate Hashtag

MNL48's fans are dying to know the meaning of the #MNL48SaveTheDate hashtag. 

With the non-stop offerings the group has been releasing, the fans are puzzled about what is happening next. On MNL48's Facebook and Twitter pages are pictures of the group's music videos with the #MNL48SavetheDate hashtag.

After the postings, viewers have started speculating that something big might happen this September 30 and they have their own sets of theories. 

Facebook user Ramon Siason guessed that it might be tied with the "River" song of the group, "River lyrics na yehey." 

Another FB user Ran Deres thinks that it maybe a new group, "Feeling ko project girl group co-manage ng Star Hunt, tas ila launch sa Sept.30, feeling ko lang naman." 

Facebook user Phionalyn Martinez, meanwhile, said that they are like detectives in searching for clues on the said announcement.

Find Your Happy Place in 'Trolls World Tour' Arriving in PH Cinemas Soon

DreamWorks Animation’s musical adventure Trolls World Tour is coming to Philippine cinemas soon! 

Anna Kendrick and Justin Timberlake return in an all-star sequel to DreamWorks Animation’s 2016 musical hit: Trolls World Tour. In an adventure that will take them well beyond what they’ve known before, Poppy (Kendrick) and Branch (Timberlake) discover that they are but one of six different Troll tribes scattered over six different lands and devoted to six different kinds of music: Funk, Country, Techno, Classical, Pop and Rock. Their world is about to get a lot bigger and a whole lot louder. 

Watch the Trolls World Tour trailer at https://youtu.be/ck-0aXE2iDc 

The first Trolls movie unlocks the joy we feel from deep interpersonal connections in our community. If the movie had a thesis, it would be “tapping the source of happiness we possess inside and not fixating upon external quick fixes,” reflects producer Gina Shay. 

While in the first film, Poppy shows the giant Bergens the way to seek inner light, in the second movie, it is the new queen who finds herself the student. This chapter from director Walt Dohrn and co-director David Smith expands the franchise’s core themes. It reaches far and wide to include all communities—those in a musical populace none of the Pop Trolls knew, or even considered, existed. 

As Poppy discovers that every voice matters and that we all need to listen now more than ever, she gains a deeper understanding of her fellow Trolls and figures out how her tribe must live together in musical peace…with the rest of their Trolls World. 

Discussing her desire to subvert audiences’ expectations, Shay offers that her team aspired to expand the world of Trolls, especially in the lyrical and sonic landscape, so they created an entire map of lands based on musical genres. 

“We didn’t want to follow the same template,” Shay says. “This movie is about all voices coming together to create a harmony. Everything comes from the story, or else it won’t feel authentic. At that moment in time in Trolls, there was a song that made everyone happy. It physically made you dance and sing. On Trolls World Tour, it’s about bringing everyone together.” 

Cast as members of the different musical tribes is one the largest, and most acclaimed, groups of musical talent ever assembled for an animated film. From the land of Funk are Mary J. Blige, George Clinton and Anderson .Paak. Representing Country is Kelly Clarkson as Delta Dawn, with Sam Rockwell as Hickory and Flula Borg as Dickory. J Balvin brings Reggaeton, while Ester Dean adds to the Pop tribe. Anthony Ramos brings the beat in Techno and Jamie Dornan covers smooth jazz. World-renowned conductor and violinist Gustavo Dudamel appears as Trollzart and Charlyne Yi as Pennywhistle from the land of Classical. And Kenan Thompson raps as a hip-hop newborn Troll named Tiny Diamond. 

Trolls World Tour is directed by Walt Dohrn, who served as co-director on Trolls, and is produced by returning producer Gina Shay. The film is co-directed by David P. Smith and co-produced by Kelly Cooney Cilella, both of whom worked on the first Trolls. Trolls World Tour will also feature original music by Justin Timberlake, who earned an Oscar® nomination for his song for 2016’s Trolls, “Can’t Stop the Feeling!,” and a score by Theodore Shapiro (2016’s Ghostbusters, The Devil Wears Prada). 

Trolls World Tour is distributed in the Philippines by United International Pictures through Columbia Pictures. Follow us on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/uipmoviesph/; Twitter at https://twitter.com/uipmoviesph and Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/uipmoviesph/
