Imelda Papin, the country’s Sentimental Songstress, recently signed a contract with Eagle Broadcasting’s Net25, which airs her and Victor Wood’s musical show “Beautiful Sunday,” Sundays from 11 a.m. to 12 noon. Mel, who also had a political stint (as vice governor of Camarines Sur) never forsook her singing career, something her fans appreciate.
“Hinahanap-hanap pa rin nila ang mga old hits namin ni Victor, so we got very good feedback from the first episode of our show,” Mel excitedly shared. She’s grateful to Net25 executives for giving non-Iglesia Ni Cristo members the chance to share their talents via their shows.
Among Imelda’s hits are “Bakit,” “Isang Linggong Pag-ibig,” “Pangako,” “Bakit Ikaw Pa?” “Minsan,” “Buhay At Pag-ibig,” “Kapag Puso Ang Nag-utos,” “Kay Lupit Mo Pag-ibig,” and “Isang Gabing Pag-ibig.”
Victor’s hits, on the other hand, include “I’m Sorry My Love,” “Teenage Señorita,” “A Tear Fell,” “Bintana Ng Puso,” “In Despair,” “Inday Ng Buhay Ko,” “Hahabol-habol,” “Sonata Of Love,” and “One More Chance.”
By the way, Imelda is the new president of the Kapisanan ng mga Artista ng Pelikulang Pilipino at Telebisyon (KAPPT) (Actors’ Guild of the Philippines).

Journey to love
Piolo Pascual is back via the film “Northern Lights: A Journey to Love,” described to be “a heart-warming movie about a father, a woman and a child, and their journey towards finding true love.”
Directed by Dondon Santos, the film marks the first time Piolo is co-starring with child actor Raikko Mateo and young actress Yen Santos.
Dondon’s impressive resume includes directing numerous episodes of top rating ABS-CBN shows as “Maalaala Mo Kaya,” “Komiks Presents,” “Ipaglaban Mo,” and the primetime series “Green Rose” as well as the movies “Dalaw” and “Noy” under Star Cinema.
In “Northern Lights,” Piolo plays a desolate man in search of the right path in his life, while Raikko portrays a child who is longing for love from his father.
Raikko showed his acting mettle in ABS-CBN’s top rating series “Honesto.”
Yen, on her part, earned viewers notice through her performances in Kapamilya shows such as “Pure Love” and “All Of Me.”
Piolo, a real-life father to 19-year-old Iñigo, consistently garners critical acclaim for his performances of challenging characters through the years.
Opening on March 29, “Northern Lights” is a co-production among Regal Entertainment, Spring Films and Star Cinema.
