WE HEARD Viva Films is alarmed that after nearly two years in the making, the Aga Muhlach-Regine Velasquez reunion flick, "Of All the Things", is nowhere near completion up to now, whereas "Working Girls 2010", which has a much bigger cast has been completed after only a couple of months and is now ready to be shown. Some folks say it was delayed by Aga's efforts to take off some unwanted poundage, but others say shooting is frequently stalled because its director, Joyce Bernal, is often intoxicated. "When it started, ni hindi pa nasisimulan ang 'Diva' ko on GMA-7," says Regine. "Ngayon, ongoing na ang 'Diva' at regular na ang tapings ko rito, pero hindi pa rin tapos ang movie. Tapos, heto sisimulan na ang bagong Sunday show, 'Party Pilipinas', kaya sana, matapos na kami kasi another movie is waiting for me na kukunan on location sa Recto Avenue. But we're so sa "Diva" as our ratings have picked up after my character, Sampaguita, became a singer of the Khumparis and Khumaris Band that sings in weddings, baptisms and funerals. But I learn that I have a brother, Smith (Mark Herras), the son of my dad Elvis (Boboy Garovillo) with another woman. My dad then meets an accident and loses both legs. A producer (Randy Santiago) discovers me and offers to build me up but I have to make over my ugly face."
Going back to the film with Aga, is it true that his manager, Manay Ethel Ramos, contracted some skin allergies due to tension over the delay in the filming? She's waiting for Aga to finish it so he can start the film he'll do with Angel Locsin, who's now also a ward of Manay Ethel. As it is, Angel is getting restless and is said to have gone to Hongkong by herself. It's been half a year since her last show, "Only You", was shown and she has had no exposure on TV or in film for a long time now. Meantime, new stars are beuing built up by ABS non-stop, like Erich Gonzales, Bangs Garcia and Andi Eigenmann, so she does have a reason to feel worried.
