Survivor Philippines 2 Premieres August 17th

Survivor Philippines 2 (Palau)
Survivor Philippines 2
will premiere August 17th on GMA-7. After the first season’s Ko Tarutao, Survivor Philippines goes 500 miles east of the country, in the island of Palau.

The second season’s sole survivor will be taking home Php3,000,000 in cash.

After season 1’s “leakage” where JC Tiuseco’s victory was prematurely spread, we’re quite sure GMA-7 is now taking extra precautions so it will not happen again.

Survivor Philippines 2 will still be hosted by Paolo Bediones.

Braden Bacha is a Naked Houseguest!

The California-born hunk is an international model and, as evident in his Dante's Cove appearance, is also an actor. He loves surfing, sleeping, and talking to the girls.

Michael Jackson's Final Rehearsal Footage

Just like all of his other concerts, Michael Jackson's 50-show "This is It" could've been a fantastic one that would have sent us fans in great bliss.

Too bad he didn't live long enough for his supposed final set of shows. And equally bad that these rehearsals didn't make it to the concert stage. Watch the rehearsal video below.


Fans will have a chance to attend the Michael Jackson's star-studded memorial service at the Staples Center but they reportedly have to pay $25 to sit in the stands. The main floor is for the pop star's family and friends.

The memorial service is designed to make it look like a concert production, with screens inside and outside Staples Center. There will also be guest speakers and a lot of music.

The t-shirts that were made to be sold at the "This is It" concert will be sold outside the Staples Center to the fans going to the service.

Sad news for the fans of the oldest Jonas, Kevin has already proposed to his girlfriend Danielle Deleasa. Kevin Jonas reportedly took an overnight flight after their concert in Canada, to New Jersey. Wednesday morning, Kevin was on his knees at Danielle's doorstep, asking her to marry him.

How sweet. Everything is going well for them, especially on the fact the the Jonas family is very supportive of their relationship.

Joe and Nick even wrote this on their Twitter: "Congrats big brother.....Dani welcome to the family, we can't wait to have you join us on the road!"
