MANILA, Philippines - "We're friends."
These were the words said by President Benigno S. Aquino III to describe Korean television and radio host Grace Lee during a radio interview yesterday, sparking curiosity if the rumored breakup between them is indeed true.
In the interview aired over Bombo Radyo, the President was asked on his thoughts on the impeachment trial of Chief Justice Renato Corona, the new Tourism ad "It's more fun in the Philippines," the airport brawl between journalist Mon Tulfo and actor Raymart Santiago, his Cabinet men, as well as other personalities like Ombudsman Conchita Carpio-Morales and Jessica Sanchez, to name a few.
However, when the name Grace Lee was mentioned, the President only answered, "Kaibigan natin (Our friend)."
It was the first time the President spoke about his relationship with the Korean celebrity following rumors that he and Lee have already broken up.
Lee earlier declined to answer questions pertaining to the matter, urging the media to ask the President himself about it.

SINGAPORE (Reuters) - The success of Manny Pacquiao is delivering a knockout blow to Filipino dreams of a first Olympic gold medal, with young boxers fast-tracking to the professional ranks in a desperate bid to escape poverty and emulate the success of their hero.
Manny Pinol, a former governor of North Cotabato and current manager of boxers through his Braveheart Boxing stable, says the success of the eight-weight world champion is hindering the amateur Olympic program at home.
Despite boasting a population of over 100 million and a love of boxing, the Philippines will send just one fighter to the London Olympics later this year - the same number as the tiny Seychelles - leaving little hope of adding to the three bronze and two silvers won by their boxers in previous Games.
All this while Pacquiao (welterweight), Nonito Donaire (super-bantamweight), Sonny Boy Jaro (flyweight), and Donnie Nietes (light flyweight) hold world titles in the pro ranks.

In her own sweet and adorable way, Hollie Cavanagh has clawed and kicked her way to "American Idol's" top four--bucking the odds, outlasting frontrunners like Colton Dixon and Skylar Laine, ruining office pools, and along the way establishing herself as Season 11's tiny Reinhartian warrior. Last week, in fact, she was so wonderfully in the zone, as Randy Jackson would say, she even managed to upstage Jessica Sanchez. But this week on "Idol," some of the fight seemed to leave Hollie's little warrior body. Joshua Ledet and Jessica experienced big moments with big songs that once again had the judges up on their feet (in case you'd lost count, that was the TWELFTH standing ovation for Joshua, and this latest one was undoubtedly deserved).

Hilario grows up to be Professor Larry (Vic Sotto), a physics teacher. When fate and duty calls, he transforms as Lastikan who protects people from injustice and oppression. Things become perplexing when Lastikamn was involved with the clash of his two students. His nerdy student Jepoy (Jeffrey Quizon) who used to idolize him turn to a villain called Evil Stryker.

To make matters worse, news spread that Lastikaman beats up Jepoy and kills Ryan (Ryan Eigenman). This disheartens Lastikman. He now contemplates if he’ll remain to be a superhero or just an ordinary & simple man.

Sometimes, the ease with which we fall in love is also the ease with which we fall out of love. This can happen because the relationship has run its course; your partner and you now want different things out of life; you’ve changed as a person and cannot relate to the relationship anymore. The comfort and habit of being in a relationship may work as a hindrance and not allow you to take the necessary steps required to call it off. But if you notice most or all of these signs, then you know you must confront the obvious and make a decision before it’s too late.
