Possibly one of the best looking young actors appearing in local movies these days, Andre Paras finally gets his biggest break from Viva Entertainment. He stars in the youth-oriented film Girlfriend for Hire with Yassi Pressman, one of several young female actors the multi-media company is building up after Nadine Lustre.

Paras and Pressman are the next love team Viva is pushing after Lustre and James Reid after the tandem eased into the A list at ABS-CBN with their current nightly soap On The Wings of Love.

While Paras and Pressman’s love team are exclusively in the movies, the potential of becoming a major tandem looms as the two are not frequently seen together – he is paired with another girl on GMA Network and she with other guys on TV5.

On Wednesday, fans of the two can watch them in the much-awaited movie adaptation of the hit Wattpad novel with more than 68 million reads titled, Girlfriend For Hire.

The romance-comedy movie marks the third team-up of the YanDre (Yassi Pressman and Andre Paras) tandem introduced in the 2014blockbuster Diary ng Panget with Reid and Lustre.

Julia Montes’ best face forward by Belo

Just because she is a star doesn’t mean that she has absolutely no imperfections. Star Magic’s talent and one of ABS-CBN’s television princesses Julia Montes is one of those whom ordinary people can identify with in this regard.

Although young and very pretty, Julia Montes has always been dissatisfied with the shape of her face. She felt that it was too rounded for her own comfort and when seen on television screens, the added pounds miraculously rendered by the screen appearance, does nothing to give her comfort.

Beautiful imperfection: Julia is the face of Belo’s latest beauty treatment 

That’s why Belo Medical Group’s latest breakthrough beauty solution called Face Out Fat clinched the deal for the young actress. Face Out Fat is all about achieving a slimmer face with non-invasive treatments. Right there and then, Julia knew that this was for her.

Julia says, “as soon as Dr. Vicki Belo gave us this option, I was very happy to really explore the idea of doing it. It was addressing my concern quite specifically and I knew that by doing it, it will give me more confidence to do my job. Now, I’m very happy with the result and many people have noticed my slimmer face.” 

Doctor to the Stars explained that Face Out Fat involves facial slimming procedures that are done quite excellently at the BMG. Some of them are Botox Masseter, Exilis for the face and Ulthera . “The great thing about these procedures is that they give very noticeable results. Many of these procedures are quick and you can resume your daily routines in a few minutes. It’s the best option for busy individuals like Julia who can’t afford to go through a long recovery period,” says Dr. Belo. 

Botox Masseter is a specialized treatment that involves injecting Botox into the masseter muscle in the jaw to reduce its size, giving the face a smoother and softer contour. It has been used on patients struggling with chronic jaw locking and jaw pain, adding the benefit of comfort on top of beauty.

Exilis Elite is an exciting new technology that uses radio frequency (RF) energy for body and face contouring and skin tightening. It is a non-surgical procedure that reduces fat and firms skin in the face and body.

Ulthera is a new type of non-surgical, non-invasive procedure that uses focused ultrasound and the body’s own natural healing process to lift, tone, and tighten loose skin on the face, brow, neck, under the chin, and even the décolletage (upper chest area). It is US FDA-cleared machine that helps make your face more rejuvenated, tightened/firm and smaller.

Face Out Fat from Belo is truly a wonder and Julia’s billboards up this month shows just how wonderful it is. The young lady’s beauty is enhanced so much more.

For more information about the Face Out Fat campaign, you may call 817-BELO and begin the journey to a more beautiful and confident you.

Grace dreams about her father

Senator Grace Poe revealed that her father, Fernando Poe, Jr., always appears in her dreams. Apparently, she misses him a lot.

“Palagi sa panaginip kapag nakikita ko ang tatay ko parang palaging normal lang na mabilis na parang may pupuntahan siya ulit. Na hinahabol ko siya,” said the senator. 

When asked what the dreams could mean, she said, “Hindi ko nga maintindihan kung anong ibig sabihin pa noon hanggang ngayon.” 

According to Grace, she is hurdling a lot of stumbling blocks regarding her candidacy and that might have triggered her dreams about her father.

“Pero minsan kapag meron akong mga hamon sa buhay, nag-iisa na lang, may magte-text sa akin at magsasabi ay huwag mo kakalimutan iyong sinabi ni FPJ noon na masmataas sa batas ang kapakanan ng mga tao,” Grace said.

While she continues to look for her biological parents, she doesn’t forget that her adoptive parents –Susan Roces and FPJ – had showered with love.
