After almost two months of vacation (something she has never done before in her longstanding career), Pop Princess Sarah Geronimo is back to work.
“Yes, 100 percent back na,” Sarah said in an interview with Push.com
“Yung mindset ko is talagang energized, mas motivated to work even harder. Kasi dumarating din sa stage ng buhay natin na ano ba ‘yung purpose ko, bakit ko ba ito ginagawa, ano ba ‘yung kulang ko?”
The singer-actress also said that she realized that she shouldn’t work for other people to please them.
“’Yung main goal mo dapat is to share whatever you have. Kung ano ‘yung binigay sa ‘yo ng Panginoon, regardless kung magbunga siya ng konti or sangkatutak,” she excitedly shared and added, “Ang pinaka-importante is to glorify and honor Him sa kung ano ang ginagawa mo sa buhay mo.”
For now, Sarah intends to focus on her singing and recording career, but there is a possibility of doing a movie as well.
“I’d like to focus more sa music ko at i-promote ‘yung nakaraang album ko. Hindi ko talaga na-promote nang maayos. We are planning na talagang mailabas ‘yung magagandang tracks dito sa latest album ko,” she shared.
Sarah is also preparing for her major concert, while getting ready for a special show for her album “The Great Unknown” which recently reached platinum.

Congratulations to Lotlot de Leon on her Special Acting Citation given to her during the All Lights India International Film Festival (which is part of the Indywood Film Carnival last Sept. 24-27 in Hyderabad, India.
Lotlot was cited for her role in the indie movie, “1st Sem,” which was made by first-time directors Dexter Hemedez and Allan Ibanez.

After directors Allan and Dexter were announced as winners, the hosts of the awards night explained that the board of jury decided to give Lotlot a special citation. It was the first time in the festival’s history to do this.
“Hindi talaga ako makapaniwala,” Lotlot said. “Hindi ko kasi ine-expect.”

There were two special guests during the birthday of James Yap’s Italian girlfriend, Michela Cazzola.
Bimby, James’ son with Kris Aquino and his older brother Josh Aquino, attended the simple celebration, along with the couple’s new baby, MJ.
In an Instagram post last Oct. 27, James thanked Bimby and Josh for being with them during the special occasion.
“Thank you Kuya Josh and Kuya Bimb for celebrating Tita Mic’s birthday with us,” he posted.
According to Kris, it was Michela who personally invited Josh and Bimby to join them for her birthday celebration.
It was only recently that Kris and Bimby went over to the couple’s residence so that the latter can finally meet his new brother.
In her Instagram post, Kris shared a picture of Bimby and MJ with the caption, “I reached out to James & asked if it would be okay for Bimb to meet his baby brother. I prayed a lot for this day to arrive when we’d all be ready, because I just want what is best for my bunso. Thank you James & Mic for graciously welcoming us into your home. Mic went out of her way to prepare carbonara for Bimb & to bake an Italian chocolate pie for our merienda.”
