Hinting a little of her behind, Bianca Gonzalez goes a bit daring on her cover for Rogue magazine this June 2013.

This is the first time Bianca Gonzalez will show more than just her bikini-perfect body. and I thought Esquire magazine's April 2012 issue was the most daring she can get. This time at Rogue, its definitely a must see! Even if its just an itsy bitsy peek.

How about you? Which cover do you think is sexier and alluring, and which caught your attention longer and immediately?

The Inquirer reports "On May 17, during the packed concert titled “I Vice Ganda Mo Ako sa Araneta” at the Big Dome, Viceral staged a whole segment about unlikely celebrities becoming bold stars.

The segment, uploaded on YouTube in its entirety, included jokes about Soho, the only GMA 7 personality among ABS-CBN stars (Boy Abunda, Kris Aquino, Gus Abelgas and Kim Atienza) “roasted.”

Should Soho start making sexy movies, Viceral said, the pivotal scene should be a gang rape. This followed a joke—and was followed by another—about Soho’s weight.

“I could let the fat jokes go,” Soho told the Inquirer earlier. “But he had to go so far.”"

In other words Vice Ganda, roast only those close to you, who knows and patronize you. Be on safe zone na lang para lahat happy.

I salute Pinoy products because I am a proud to promote Filipino made products that came from the creative minds and entrepreneurial spirit of Filipinos. Whether in or out of the Philippines, the Pinoy really makes an outstanding mark.

I most admire those businessmen who would try to compete with big brands in a world where branding and recognition is highly invested upon. We would see a lot of marketing efforts that would shell out a large financing in order to promote a brand.

It is such an inspiration knowing that locals would try to make a name out from a market that's already filled up with so many choices.

I never knew this will be another memorable experience for me as I rubbed shoulders with Solenn Heussaff as one of my team mates during a cook fest challenge sponsored by Sun Broadband.

This is in line with their promotions of their WiFi stick that was designed to be used primamrily for vehicles as it comes with an adaptor for car charging.

What was amazing aside from the technological innovation from Sun, it was a huge surprise learning that Solenn was so knowledgeable in cooking, plus friendly and accommodating. She was also a team leader as she participated well in the team effort to be able to come up with dishes based only from the available ingredients given to us.

Details of the remarkable experience below.
