“WILLIE REVILLAME IS A GOLD MINE”
By: Rosauro M. Angeles

Wilfredo Buendia Revillame is a huge mine of gold.

Indeed, he is a gold mine. Yet mining the gold out of Willie entails a lot of controversy.

He is a formidable television host. On the side, he is an actor and a recording artist. Although supported by a few talented noon time co-hosts, he alone as a single personality consistently brought the house down and rakes a lot of money for ABS-CBN defunct noontime TV show “Wowowee”.

Some of the serious controversies where Willie has been involved include “The Ultra Stampede” resulting to deaths and injuries of “Wowowee” myriad of fans; the public disgust of his behavior during the funeral march of the late President Corazon Aquino shown in “Wowowee” episode of August 3, 2009; Willie’s on air call for the termination of one of the talk show host of ABS-CBN and the latest of which is centered on a 6 year old child who performed a live macho dancing on TV 5’s “Willing Willie” episode of March 12, 2011.

TV 5 management has already made a stand on the latest child macho dancing issue. TV 5 is willing to back Willie Revillame which they think was put on a bad light and was casted unfairly as a child abuser.

Casting Willie Revillame as a child abuser is totally unfair. Although anyone who would view an edited version of a video portraying a crying 6 year old child performing a macho dance will opine that the act was made in bad taste.

In a live performance, when emotion is high, the continuity of action is very fluid and things are happening without you knowing that it had reached already the level that needs an abrupt stop, a slow down or a change in course. The host and the show management must be discerning, action oriented and must not be carried away by the emotions that is running high particularly if the large live audience are very engaging and participative.

On the one hand, there are sectors of our society particularly in the entertainment, media and government sectors who loves controversy. Others simply make controversy as their principal business. Controversy draws attention and influence peoples’ opinion. It carries with it a continued media and TV coverage that can help some personality to gain popularity and a particular business to increase its revenue. It is also a way of arresting the growing popularity of competition.

Most often, due to pressure of public opinion, it sways some agencies or branch of government to act with haste thus resulting to investigations and unnecessary spending of tax payers’ money. This is true, not only in the case of Willie Revillame.

Arnel’s story is a fascinating look at how fame and celebrity have transformed in our super-connected Youtube age. Like fellow Youtube sensation-turned-pop icon Justin Bieber, Arnel was catapulted to stardom after being “discovered” by sheer chance. Our film follows him through this uncharted world of democratized media, where a celebrity’s fame is fueled by viral hype and destroyed by short attention spans and fickle opinions…

If you have told anyone 10 years ago that in the future, someone can be famous and reach millions and millions of people around the world in one week’s time, no one would believe you.

The ‘future’ of instant fame happened six years ago when three cool geeks from California invented YouTube in 2005. Since May 2010, YouTube exceeds 2 billion views a day. 2 billion. Since March 2010, there are 24 hours of video uploaded PER minute. I thought there should be more but over the years, there have only really been a few breakout artists who attribute their good fortune to YouTube: Arnel Pineda, Charice, Greyson Chance, Kina Grannis, Marie Digby, and Justin Beiber comes to mind.

That’s what is special about Maria Aragon, a Filipino-Canadian 10-year old girl from Winnipeg, Canada. NOT everyone gets their chance! Her simple video of her covering Lady Gaga’s new track “Born this way” stood out from the hundreds of cover of the same song. She wasn’t trying to be anything. She wasn’t trying to copy Lady Gaga, she was just doing her own interpretation of the song!

Another season to celebrate the magic of So You Think You Can Dance and one great reason to tune in on Fox every Wednesday and Thursday nights: Jazz dancer Filipino-American Alexie Agdeppa!!

This season couldn’t get any harder than the six previous seasons combined. This year, the producers introduced huge changes that’s never been done on the show.

Among the variations– instead of the usual Top 20 (Top 10 guys, Top 10 girls) they slashed it to half! So there are only 5 girls and 5 guys competing for the title “America’s Favorite Dancer.” Instead of the contestants being partnered with one another, they will be paired with an all-star cast from the favorite finalists from different seasons. Such tremendous challenge and Alexie Agdeppa is one of the “it” girls!!

I found this news rumor on Broadwayworld.com.

Broadway World is such a respectable site for everything Broadway/Theater and the like. It is very surprising to find how they can run a story without validation. Nonetheless, their main source is from the Philippine Daily Inquirer and it quoted Charice’ manager Grace Mendoza.

“The Phillippine Daily Inquirer confirms that Charise, the Philippina singing sensation will join the cast of GLEE next season. Her manager, Grace Mendoza, tells the Inquirer: “Yes, it’s true, Charice will soon join GLEE… And not just as a guest, but as part of the cast in a new season.” [Note: Yes, they've misspelled Charice name and Filipina!]

Digging into it because I am a huge Glee fan, I found out the link to the Inquirer doesn’t exist anymore. Either they have been removed because it was false or they intentionally put the story up without confirmation other than rely on the manager’s words. In which case, I strongly suggest Charice fire her own manager for starting out an incredible story that isn’t true.

The world Premiere of Charice’s Music Video “Pyramid” debuted at Oprah Winfrey’s official site a few days ago and I’m pretty excited to blog about it. Didn’t realize her album is set for release on May 11th.

To those unfamiliar, Ellen DeGeneres ’sort of’ discovered the then 15 year old girl with the big voice from the Philippines Charice, after Charice made her first US television appearance in the popular daytime show two years ago. Oprah Winfrey, the queen of television and considered to be the most influential woman in the world happened to notice her too. That encounter began a wonderful journey for Charice toward making it as an international artist! The rest is history.
