Subject: Ogie is Regine’s favorite composer Author: mmJun- with Pops [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 00:23:44 02/12/06 Sun Ogie is Regine’s favorite composer < --- Well, what a music revelation. hehe.. ;-) --- > POPS Fernandez admits she’s now managed by Arnold Vegafria. “But it doesn’t mean my mom (Dulce Lukban) will no longer have a part in my career,” she adds. “She’ll still help me, but I’m such a workaholic so I want more projects to come in. And even if it’s Arnold’s deal, my mom will still get her commission. Na-sensationalized lang ang lahat. We’re still in good terms. She just resented it kasi nalaman pa niya sa ibang tao. Actually, I told my brother about it to tell our mom, pero hindi pala nasabi. But she understands it now.” With Arnold now managing her, will she also be going sexy and pose for FHM like what Arnold did to Bianca King and Camille Prats? "May offer talaga ang FHM sa kanya," says Arnold. "At gusto ko, pero ayaw niya." "Hindi ko kaya," says Pops. "What will my sons say? Robin is 19 and Ram is 16. Pero baka rin. It depends sa mood ko, sa concept, sa ibabayad nila sa akin," and she laughs. What can she say about the revelation of Piolo Pascual that they dated three years ago? "That’s true. I really don’t know why ngayon pa naungkat. But that was just for a very short time only. Hindi natuloy." And what about Jomari Yllana now? "We go out. Two years ago, I needed a sports car as props for my concert and he lent me his car. That’s how we became friends. When I produced a show at Zirkoh Bar, he guested in it and we started going out na. It’s no big thing. My kids know about it. Tuwing lalabas naman ako, I inform them. I want to be honest with them so they’ll also be honest with me." Did she see Jomari in drag in the "Bebot" contest of "Eat Bulaga?" "Oh yes, he’s very funny in his gown. Jom is really very nice and has a good sense of humor." Do we hear wedding bells ringing soon? "No such thing. But when I attended Andeng’s wedding (sister of Bong Revilla), I told myself gusto ko rin ng ganitong wedding. Pero matagal na matagal pa ‘yon." Pops is joining Close Up’s "Lovapalooza" in Cebu on February 11, do a special show at Glorietta on February 12, and a Valentine’s show, "Let’s Talk About Love," with Kuh Ledesma at the Mandarin on February 13 and 14, presented by San Miguel and Smart. "It’ll be a perfect treat for lovers as we’ll do many medleys of romantic songs," she says. This year, she’s slated to do two new films, a new album for Warner produced by Ogie Alcasid, and a new TV show. "I expect to be really busy this year as I also have concert tours with Regine in the US and later with Kuh in Europe." Regine Velasquez denies that she’s leaving Viva and moving to GMA Records. "My contract has expired but I don’t know if it’s Viva who has the option to renew it," she says. "I still have to ask my lawyer. Also, although I’d like to try another company, wala pa namang offer sa’kin ang GMA Records. Basta as of now, I’m busy promoting my new Viva album, ‘Covers 2,’ which is a follow up to the hit ‘Covers’ album I did a year ago." "Covers 2" is an even more ambitious project as it has 16 songs with novel arrangements that make them sound new. "My sisters Diane and Cacai gave me a whole bunch of songs to choose from, mula sa ‘50s to the ‘90s. Walang OPM song kasi mas mahal ang rights, unlike foreign songs na may fixed standard fee. I chose my favorite songs na I can give my own interpretation. ‘Pag sobrang ganda na, I won’t revive it, huwag mo nang baguhin at baka mababoy pa. Ayoko naman kasi noong parang you just copied the original. I want to give it my own interpretation. Like Elvis Presley’s ‘Blue Suede Shoes,’ ginawa kong blues. ‘Yung ‘Straight Up’ ni Paula Abdul, ginawa kong jazz. The carrier single, ‘Hold Me in Your Arms’ by Southern Sun in which direk Louie Ignacio made a music video of it." How long did it take her to record the album? "I record very fast, sometimes, six songs a day. Kaya lang, I want to listen to it nang paulit-ulit muna to further improve on it hanggang makontento ako." The other great cuts in her album are "Call Me," "Come Together," "Xanadu," "Never Give Up," "On the Radio," "So Much in Love," "Kiss," and many more. She will return to original pop songs in her next album. Who’s her favorite composer? "Si Ogie Alcasid. Madaling hingan, e. He made all my hit movie theme songs. Pag sinabi mo, pahingi naman ng new song, he’d say agad, ‘o, heto,’ parang dinudukot lang sa bulsa niya. At hindi mo na kailangan pang i- audition dahil siguradong maganda." Rico Puno has just confirmed that she and Ogie are really on. "He’s just joking, alam n’yo naman ‘yon. Kasama namin kasi siya ni Ogie in our Valentine’s concert on February 10 and 11." So who’ll be her date on Valentine’s? "My dog, si George. Also, tulog ako sa Valentine’s mismo dahil tiyak na tired ako sa concert namin." She hasn’t done a movie for more than a year. "There’s the Star Cinema project with Piolo Pascual pero they haven’t called me kung kailan ang shooting. If they’d schedule it in March and April, I’d be with Pops Fernandez on a concert tour sa US and Canada. Sa May and June naman, I’d be on tour with Ogie and Ai Ai de las Alas. So ewan ko kung saan isaksak sa schedule ko ang shooting." http://www.malaya.com.ph/feb11/ente_2.htm rv_thebirdnest · Regine Velasquez Fans Bird Nest Group! http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/rv_thebirdnest/ [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]
