How could there not be a contract?  I wasn’t aware that contracts were not part of conversations with PAMI!  Who conducts business without anything in writing?  I go to the store and I get a receipt for a pack of gum.  I work and I get a contract.  Why wouldn’t there be one necessary for Maja?  Strange!!

Kinumpirma sa unang pagkakataon ng talent manager at entertainment columnist na si Chit Ramos sa PEP (Philippine Entertainment Portal) ang mga bulung-bulungan tungkol sa estado ng relasyon nila ng alaga niyang si Maja Salvador. Hindi rin naitago ni Chit ang tunay na damdamin niya sa kanyang talent.Marami ang naniniwala na nag-ugat ang problema sa pagitan nina Chit at Maja dahil sa paghingi ng kontrata ng young actress mula sa kanyang manager. May plano raw kasing bumili ng bahay si Maja at isa yata sa mga requirement ang managerial contract niya. Nagpaliwanag si Chit tungkol sa isyung ito.

 

“This is not only my case, this is also a case of most PAMI [Philippine Artists Managers Inc.] members,” bungad ni Chit. “We do not believe in contract. Ngayon, halimbawa nagkaroon man ng pirmahan dahil there was a necessity, parang it is a letter of authority to collect o di kaya ay required ng kumpanya.

Maja Salvador experiences first reel and real kissing with John Lloyd Cruz

Author: Rose Garcia

 

 

Sa huling presscon para sa latest offering ng Star Cinema, ang One More Chance, humarap na rin sa entertainment press ang iba pang cast ng movie bukod sa dalawang bida na sina John Lloyd Cruz at Bea Alonzo.

 

 

Isa na rito si Maja Salvador who plays a very important role in the film. First time din ni Maja—reel or real—na magkaroon ng kissing scene, at ang masuwerteng "nakauna" sa kanya ay ang young actor na si John Lloyd.

 

Pero dahil hindi naman si Maja ang maituturing na bida talaga sa pelikula, may mga nagtatanong kay Maja: bakit siya pumayag na sa One More Chance niya gawin ang unang kissing scene niya?

 

 

"Si John Lloyd naman po, e," sagot ng young actress. "At saka, kailangan naman po talaga sa character at saka movie naman po. Sobrang laking project pa po."

 

Okay ba sa kanya na si John Lloyd ang first-ever kissing scene niya?

 

 

"Okay lang po sa akin. Kasi ako naman, super-kumportable ko kay John Lloyd. ‘Tsaka ang tagal na naming magkakilala, kaya okay lang sa akin kahit hindi ako ang bida. Sinabi rin naman po nila sa akin ahead na may kissing scene nga raw po. At sinabi rin nila na ‘Nineteen ka na, huwag nang mag-isip ng kung ano-ano.’ Tapos, yun pa nga po, si John Lloyd pa nga po kaya okay lang sa akin," lahad ni Maja.

 

 

Naitanong din ng PEP (Philippine Enrtertainment Portal) kay Maja kung hindi ba nila naisip ng manager niya na si Chit Ramos na i-reserve na lang ang ganoong eksena sa pelikulang siya na talaga ang bida.

 

 

"Naisip din po namin, kaya lang kasi, kailangan talaga sa character," paliwanag ng young actress. "Twenty-two years old na po kasi dito ang character ko. Sobrang ang tanda na talaga sa age ko. Kakaibang Maja, ibang level."

 

 

Magkaganunman, inamin ni Maja na hindi niya pa rin maiwasang hindi kabahan at mailang nang gagawin na nila ang kissing scene. Lalo pa nga raw at first shooting day pa lang niya, ‘yon na ang eksenang ipinagawa sa kanya ng direktor ng movie na si Cathy Garcia-Molina.

 

 

Kuwento ni Maja, "Noong una, noong hindi pa po namin ginagawa, iniisip ko, naiilang ako. Di ba, sinasabi nila, baka magkaroon ka ng feeling? Ganyan-ganyan. Pero after naman ng kissing scene, yun pala ang sinasabing walang malisya talaga.

 

 

"At saka humingi ako ng ibang advice sa ibang friends ko. Like kay Denise Laurel na okay lang ba ‘yon? ‘Tapos sabi niya, yes, wala namang malisya ‘yon, e. Kaya lang po, siguro sa sobrang kaba ko po, bigla akong nagka-period after naming gawin ang scene!" natatawang sabi niya.

 

 

MORE DARING MAJA? Nilinaw rin ni Maja na after that, wala namang maaasahan sa kanya na sa mga susunod niyang projects ay mas daring na Maja na ang mapapanood.

 

 

"Stop na muna ‘yon," sabi niya. "Kumbaga, kay John Lloyd kasi kaya pumayag ako. Like sa Pangarap na Bituin, nang makita nila na may kissing scene ako sa movie, tinatanong nila kung puwede kaming mag-smack ni Jay-R Siaboc. Sabi ko naman, hindi pa naman po ganoon ang pinagsamahan namin ni Jay-R. Hindi naman sa ayoko, pero hindi naman po kasi movie yung Pangarap na Bituin."

 

Ano ang meron kay John Lloyd kaya napapayag siyang magpahalik?

 

 

"Kumportable ako sa kanya," mabilis na sagot ni Maja. "Sobrang kumportable ako at ang tagal ko na naman siyang kakilala. Kumbaga, halos siya yung nalalapitan ko kung may problema ako. Sobrang close talaga kami. Kumbaga, kuya-kuya ko po siya talaga. Pero nang gawin namin ang movie na ito, pinagbawalan akong tawagin siyang kuya or tatay-tatay.

 

 

"At saka, alam ko na siya yung lalaki na puwede kong bigyan ng trust. Na kapag nag-kiss kami, alam kong hindi siya magpi-feeling or hindi ako mababastos.

 

"Kaya ko rin po ito tinanggap dahil alam ko po na never akong pinabayaan ng Star Cinema. At saka, ano pong malay natin, after po pala nito, kung anong project naman ang susunod na ibibigay sa akin ng Star Cinema," masayang pahayag ng young actress.

 

JOHN LLOYD-BEA FAN. Ayon kay Maja, malaking bagay sa kanya ang makasama ang loveteam nina John Lloyd at Bea sa isang pelikula.

 

 

"Ako, happy po ako. Sobra! Malaki or maliit na role, gusto kong tanggapin basta John Lloyd-Bea. It Might Be You po kasi, kasama nila ko at sobrang fan nila ko. At saka, wow, dati sobrang supporting lang ako sa It Might Be You, ‘tapos ngayon… So, sobrang happy po akong talaga," excited na pahayag ni Maja.

Maja Salvador Profile

Maja Salvador Profile

Born October 5, 1988- Maja Salvador is one of the latest in line of the illustrious show biz clan of the Salvador family. She is now making her own identity and mark as the Dance Princess of the Philippines and one of the most promising young actresses in the industry.

Name: Maja Ross Andres
Stage Name: Maja Salvador
Nick Name: Maja, Majang, Baby Maj, Totzki
Birthday: October 5, 1988
Age: 18 yrs. old
Zodiac: Libra
Siblings: Joseph, Jonjon, Bong, Luchi, Shyla, Jason, Marie, Kirby
Father’s Name: Ross Rival
Mother’s Name: Thelma Andres
School: San Benildo Integrated School / ABS-CBN Distance Learning Center
Hometown: Apari, Cagayan


Majah’s Biography:

There’s something about a teenaged girl aching for her long-lost dad that moves one’s heart. When ABS-CBN’s Charo Santos-Concio saw Maja Salvador pleading on nationwide TV for a glimpse of her dad Ross Rival, something in the girl’s angelic face tugged at the network executive’s heartstrings. Concio asked her staff to look for Maja.

Thus did Maja Salvador sign up with the Lopez network and was introduced as John Prats’ partner in It Might Be You last February.

Before that though, Lady Luck was working overtime for the 17-year-old girl from Aparri. Maja met Farrah Ramos, movie columnist-talent manager Chit Ramos’s daughter in a modeling workshop and they became fast friends. Little did Maja know their friendship will lead her, not only to a reunion with her dad, but to a promising career in showbiz, a field her father’s side of the family has been identified with for decades.

Maja confided to Chit that she had long wanted to see her dad, whom she last saw when she was only seven. Maja did not know Chit wrote about showbiz and never suspected her wishful thinking will come true.

To Maja’s surprise, Chit replied, “You want to see your dad? Let’s call Phillip (Salvador, Maja’s uncle).” Before Maja can say a word, Chit dialed Philip’s number on the cell phone and uncle and niece were talking.

The long-delayed father-daughter reunion - chronicled and aired on The Buzz – took place in the house of Ramon Salvador, Phillip’s older brother. As fate would have it, Concio was watching at that time, and that touching scene stuck in her mind. The rest, as they say, is history.

“I feel no bitterness toward my father, even if he and my mom separated when I was a baby. My mom said I won’t be here if it weren’t for him,” says Maja.

Besides, she has moved on herself. Maja is grateful to her Japanese stepdad for taking good care of her. It was her stepdad who, upon learning she was entering showbiz, came home from Japan, where he markets Toyotas, to buy Maja a van to take her around.

Maja is having the time of her life, never mind if she has to wake up early to make it to her classes in a school close to their home in Cainta at 7 a.m. Never mind, too, if unlike before, when she can go to malls in casual shorts, “I must look presentable because fans see me.”

She need not worry about her get-ups though. Navy/White Tops got her as image model. The brand’s pastel colors complement Maja’s young, carefree image, and its casual look, she adds, jibes with her love for things simple yet comfortable.

Her style has even caught the eye of Aga Muhlach and Janice de Belen’s son Igi Boy, who sent Maja flowers during a presscon.

“Maybe it’s his way of telling me I should feel at ease at that time,”Maja brushes away romantic ideas.

Basketball Update Alaska Aces

Filed under: Sports

Aces storm to 2nd victory

The Alaska Aces roared to their second straight victory in the Philippine Basketball Association Preseason Tournament with a devastating 80-71 rout of the undermanned Purefoods Tender Juicy Giants at the Arellano University gymnasium.

 

Purefoods missed the services of 2006 Most Valuable Player James Yap, who was resting a sprained ankle.

 

Another victory, tomorrow over the undermanned Barangay Ginebra Gin Kings, who lost their opening game, 82-83, against the Giants, will propel the Aces to the one-game championship of the preseason tourney on Sunday.

 

By then, the Aces hope to parade the newest addition to their family — rookie Mark Borboran, who was traded by Air21 to Alaska, in favor of big man JR Quinahan.

 

Quiñahan was the seventh pick overall by the Aces in the 2007 PBA Draft. An outstanding amateur player, he did not get the chance to strut his stuff because the Aces were loaded with big men in Sonny Thoss, John Ferriols and new recruit Ervin Sotto.

 

Borboran, who was the sixth pick in this year’s PBA Draft averaged close to 20 points and eight rebounds for the University of the East Red Warriors. He averaged 17. 1 points for Hapee Toothpaste in the Philippine Basketball League’s Unity Cup last May.

 

Borboran is the fifth left-handed player of the Aces. He joins fellow lefties Willie Miller, Joe Devance, Reynel Hugnatan and Ferriols in the squad.

 

 

Basketball Update Alaska Aces

New Alaska player Devance leads team to PBA preseason win

Joe Devance scored 15 points for his new team Alaska and Rain or Shine’s highly touted new recruits struggled in Alaska’s 90-77 win Wednesday in the Philippine Basketball Association preseason tournament at the Lyceum Gym.

Devance, the top pick in the 2007 draft who groped for form in his rookie season, was said to be comfortable with the Aces. He was acquired from Welcoat via draft-day trade.

Rain or Shine started strong and kept the game close in the first half, but a 10-0 run by Alaska to start the third quarter put the Aces ahead 56-44 and stayed in front the rest of the way.

Two-time league MVP Willie Miller had 14 points, while big-man Sonny Thoss added 12.

Gabe Norwood, the first overall choice in the 2008 draft, finished with 13 points for Rain or Shine but was hardly a factor. Eddie Laure led the Elasto Painters with 15.
