Regis Films and Entertainment Inc. was launched recently to coincide with the birthday celebration of its president and CEO, Anicia Joson-Regis. She shared the vision of the company which is “Wholesome entertainment that binds global Filipinos.” Their initial offering, “Tatlong Bibe,” focuses on the cherished values of love, hope, giving, sharing, and forgiving.

Honesto F. Ongtioco, DD, Bishop of The Roman Catholic Diocese of Cubao, encourages its parishioners to watch the wholesome film to be shown starting tomorrow, March 1.

The movie is about three children played by Raikko Matteo, Lyca Gairanod and Marco Masa, whose paths cross while searching for three ducks. Others in the cast are Rita Avila, Sharlene San Pedro, Victor Neri, Luis Alandy, Edgar Allan Guzman, Ronnie Lazaro, Anita Linda, JK Labajo, Perla Bautista, Nikki Valdez, Lou Veloso, Janna Trias, Eddie Garcia, and Dionesia Pacquiao.

Barbie in a bikini

For the first time, Barbie Forteza wore a two-piece bikini onscreen. This was for a beach scene on her GMA primetime TV series “Meant To Be” aired last week.

Her four leading men – Ken Chan, Jak Roberto, Ivan Dorschner and Addy Raj – gave their full support to the actress in her preparation for the scene shot at a resort in Laiya, Batangas.

When Barbie learned she was going to wear a two-piece bikini on the show, she immediately went on a diet.

“Wala agad carbs, maliit na chicken for protein and egg whites. Saging na saba,” Barbie told “24 Oras.”
