Bad news from Justin Timberlake

Justin tells EW that he’s “not working” on new music right now. The singer has been hitting the studio lately, but only to produce tracks for other artists, like T.I. (“Dead and Gone") and Ciara (“Love Sex Magic”). “Right now, I like the idea that things can just kind of pop up and if they feel right I can do them,” says Timberlake.

Sad news indeed! Hu hu hu..... Im a certified JT fanatic since "Justified" was released seven years ago. There's a gap of four years between the aforementioned first cd and the release of his sophomore cd: Futuresexlovesounds back in 2006. So if he will follow the pattern, ill be definitely waiting for another year or two before finally hearing a new record from the Prince of Pop! WTF!

fave JT singles: Like I Love You, Cry Me A River, My Love, What Goes Around

summer special 09' kaput???

Hannah's Beach Resort, Ilocos

The latest news from the fab girls: backing out one by one on our supposedly two summer specials: A so so Opening salvo: Bulacan Night swimming (last week) and Fab Pagudpod Special (next week). Hay, I really have a feeling right now that we will not have a "summer special" this year for the first time since 2001. I admit gone were the days of the exciting vacations we had in the past. For the past 2 years, I witnessed the waning interest of the girls to come up with a "ol' good out of town" experience on par with the other classic specials. Many factors should be considered for the failure of the girls to ignite new interests. But whatever the reasons are, I'm still hoping and I know we still have the "hots" to create a new historical summer special in the future.

An outtake from last year's Cosmopolitan Magazine's Annual Sexiest Men. A mind boggling question for me since last year, why does the editors of Cosmo didn't use this awesome yummy shot (pit and bulge galore)? Instead, we just got a not satisfying pic of this hot gentleman from that said hot issue.

Federico Fellini

One of my fave directors of all time, Fellini was the greatest Italian film director known for his distinct style of unique combination of dreams, fantasy and reality. He was the director of my all time fave film "8 1/2". Fellini was so influential that a term coined from his name called "Fellinesque". It is used to describe any scence in which a hallucinatory image invades an otherwise ordinary situation. His films were widely acclaimed and four of his films won the Best Foreign Film Oscar. He was the major factor why I fell in love with classic European art films.



recommended films: La Dolce Vita, La Strada, Satyricon and 8 1/2

WAITING
by Madonna
from EROTICA album

Well, I know from experience
That if you have to ask for something more than once or twice
It wasn't yours in the first place
And that's hard to accept when you love someone
And you're led to believe in their moment of need
That they want what you want but they don't

Don't go breaking my heart like you said you would
Baby, you're no good
And you hurt me like no other lover ever could
Don't go making me cry
You're gonna say goodbye
Baby, tell me why
Tell me why or you're gonna have to justify this

Waiting for you
I'm waiting
Can't you see
I'm waiting for you
Don't break my heart

It was so easy in the beginning
When you didn't feel like running from your feelings like you are now
What happened?
What do I remind you of?
Your past, your dreams
Or some part of yourself that you just can't love?
I wish I could believe you
Or at least have the courage to leave you
Life has taught me that love with a man like you
Is only gonna make me blue
But I love you anyway no matter what you do
You don't come around here like you did before
When you did adore
Tell me what I did to deserve this

Finally I see a different man
Only love can hurt like this can
Finally I see a different face
Tell me who is going to take my place
I knew it from the start that you would desert me
You're gonna break my heart
Baby, please don't hurt me

It's official! Im so OVER with you! Fuck you!!!

Did you know that he is also my ultimate inspiration for my frustrated directing career back then?

1. Happy Together

3. In the Mood for Love

Love to see his other works: Ashes of time, Days of Being Wild, As Tears Go By, Fallen Angels

King of Pop

I was once a Michael Jackson mega fanatic from 1983 to 1997, but after his HiStory World Tour '96 set foot in Manila, I was kinda stop following him. Not that I hate him because of the controversies surrounded this talented man. Let just say it was just a MJ fatigue coz I was constanly playing all his songs, watching his vids, buying anything about him, tried to look paler and paler ever throughout the HiStory era (1995-1997). As far as I can remember I was so obsessed with him to actually name my newly purchased japanese spitz pup to "Jackson" back then. I was just Im kinda sick of hearing his songs anymore and Madonna returns with a bang in early 1998 with Ray of Light. So he was definitely overshadowend by my Queen of Pop. By the way my site title "Behind the Pale" was actually inspired by the King of Pop.

Since he is making a comeback later this year, Im just paying him a little tribute for once being a big part of my life.

But I still love this song!!!

Ciara, the leotards has to go!
This comeback leotard craze were all started by non other than the Queen of Pop in her 2005's "Hung up" vid! Since then all pop stars were caught up with this 70's oufit from Rihanna (disturbia) to Lady Gaga (Pokerface) to Beyonce (Single Ladies).

RecordRunner

My all time fave shop in the whole world!!!!

Record Runner is located at Jones st., New York City. Luckily, I discovered this little record shop way back in 2001 on my first trip to USA. Everytime Im reminiscing of that unforgettable american trip, I always yearn to go back to this wonderful place. Why? Because its a "MADONNA HEAVEN" for super fanatics like me! Fucking awesome! When I entered their store I was like a child in a freaking candy or toy shop. I was literally smiling while browsing their extensive Madonna inventory. You can find here anything about the queen of pop from 80's magazine covers to cd singles from around the world to promo cds to promotional standees to lunch boxes to posters etc. Wow! Unfortunately, I had no super big budget to purchase all the stuff their selling. My remaining moolah all went to this temptation of evil store. Did you know that this was the place where I spend my lonely xmas 01' in NYC. Since Im homesick at that time I went alone on xmas day to Record Runner to splurge on Madonna items just to ward off my suffocating depression. The nice black guy attendant from the shop knew me already coz I was there almost everyday. So he generously gave me some Madonna freebies as xmas gifts. Awww.... Forget the trips to other places in the world, my only wish ever is to just get back in this place. Really! As in!

fave finds: classic back issues of Vanity Fair Magazines, Entertainment Weekly Magazines, Rolling Stone Magazines, CD singles, Promotional items

note: FYI they are also selling lots of rare and not rare stuff from other pop singers

Sea Change

Sea Change is an album by Beck, released in 2002. So different from his previous quirky, fun and silly records. The concept of this album is inspired by the dissolution of his relationship with his long time girlfriend. He bares all his soul on this brilliant album.

One of my faves of all time and the best break up album I've ever heard. To describe Sea Change, its the most depressingly beautiful, melancholic and heartbreakingly simple. You can hear the singers sadness and pain in every words of the lyrics. I fell in love with the cd's gorgeous songs: Lonesome Tears, Guess Im Doin Fine and Lost Cause. This is Beck's masterpiece.

In addition, I am really captivated everytime I watch the creepily simple, haunting, heart wrenching video for "Lonesome Tears".
