28 Philippine Showbiz Today Pinoy Big Brother December 8 - 21, 2015 Why Tommy, Miho fought Uh oh. It appears that “Pinoy Big Brother 737” grand winner Miho Nishida has pissed off model and suitor Tommy Esguerra. On Wednesday’s episode of “It’s Showtime,” it was re- vealed that their first-ever “lov- er’s quarrel” stemmed from Nishida’s decision not to wake Esguerra up for a party that they were supposed to attend. “Sobrang excited ako na makasama si Miho sa party ta- pos I waited for her all night sa house, tapos I took a nap. But then she comes home and she leaves. Hindi lang man niya ako ginising, wala man lang message, nothing,” Es- guerra said. Ac- cording to Nishida, she opted not to wake Esguerra up because she knew that he was tired from a gig the night be- fore. She has since apologized to Esguerra, but the latter was a tad hesitant in accepting it. Vice Ganda, donning his per- sona as “Madam Bertud,” then offered his advice to the two. He said: “Tommy, n a u u - nawan kita. Ka- hit sino man sa atin ang maiwan na may pupuntahan na isang mahalagang okasyon, magdadamdam ‘din naman.” “Lalo na ‘yung pag ang maka- kasama mo ay mahalaga sa iyo. Isipin niyo na pag-gising ninyo sa isang araw, wala na ‘yung taong mahal na mahal mo na hindi mo alam kung saan siya nagpunta. Magdadamdam ka.” “Pero kung uunawin mo ang dahilan kung bakit niya gina- wa iyon, malalaman mong may maganda naman palang inten- syon. Ang mahalaga kasi dapat ay alamin natin kung ano ‘yung intensyon nung taong inakala na- tin nagkasala sa atin,” he added. The two eventually patched things up by the end of the noon- time program. • - ABS-CBN Dinky Doo bounces back Having gone through the lowest of the low, comedian- turned-director Dinky Doo now has what he considers his second lease in life. Recall that Dinky’s severe arthritis left him bedridden and jobless in 2009. It got so bad that he was even featured on “Wish Ko Lang,” a wish-granting show for the needy and those in dire straits. “Totally bagsak ako, lipat- lipat ako ng bahay kasi ’di ako makabayad ng renta,” he said. Who would think that only six years later, Dinky will be back in harness and rolling in money. He now has a franchising business that allows him to travel abroad. He also claims to have a rest house, condominium units, and a luxury sports car. “The person in front of you right now is a survivor,” he said. “Ang binebenta ko ay pag-asa.” Life has been so good for Dinky that he even managed to co- produce and direct the movie “One Day Isang Araw, I Saw Nakakita,” which had a premiere last night at the Meralco Theater. A trilogy of comedy, action and drama under film outfit Yebahdabadoo, it stars new child actor AJ Ocampo along with John Regala, Nino Muhlach, Allen Dizon, Lara Quigaman and Ana Feliciano. While he has no formal training in directing, Dinky said he was mentored by his close friend, actor Ronnie Ricketts. Is he pressured to succeed as helmsman? Dinky smiled. “Hindi kami after doon sa kumita,” he said. “Ang gusto lang namin ay ma-expose ’yung bata at makatulong sa iba.” He plans to do a movie on his life story in the future, which he hopes to field in various film festivals. “Ang bait ni God,” he said. “Kasi wala na ako, nabaldado na ako, natanggalan na ako ng metro ng Meralco, naka-apartment lang ako. But now, nakagawa na ako ng sarili kong pelikula, first directorial job ko. Okay ’yung business ko.” “Gusto ko maging ilaw (para sa iba). I want to give hope.” - K.Valera & Jojo Panaligan, MB
