There was a car explosion that rocked Taguig City this afternoon that burned the driver inside the car to a crisp. The blast happened in the Fort Bonifacio Global City near Serendra and right across the Fully Booked bookstore in Bonifacio High Street (BHS).
The authorities are currently investigating the cause of the explosion. Speculations abound that the blast involves foul play. No indication yet from police reports.

Whew.
After almost 2 years (getting invited to events or launches not counted) of not having nightlife, I was out again last Saturday night with my 2 best wing women. Partied until the sun came out.
Early Saturday evening was spent with a small mooncake-dice game dinner with my mom and sisters and the Fil-Chi San Juan Chamber at Annapolis Seafood restaurant. I bounced even before the dice game started since Madz was going to pick me up by 11:10PM.
(Play Music)
Now the day is turning into night A
nd everything is still going right
There’s no way you can stop me this time
Or break this spirit of mine
Like the stars above
I’m gonna shine
Anything I want will be mine
Tonight I’m gonna have a good time
Call a few friends of mine
‘Cause I’m loving life
And tonight’s for feeling…
I’m feeling so good
I knew I would
Be taking care of myself
Like I should
‘Cause not one thing can bring me down
Nothing in this world gonna turn me round…
Locations:
Capones
Club Bureau A. Venue Hall Makati
Attica Bar and Lounge A. Venue Hall Makati
Tabu Salcedo Street Makati
Bugsy’s City Golf Plaza Pasig
Off we went to A Venue in Makati. Capones was the first stop of the night.
Chai soon followed. Club Bureau was the next stop. After 20 minutes of waiting in line, we girls grew impatient and left supposedly for Tabu but Chai invited to Attica. I didn’t want to go (knowing that I might bump into someone) so Chai owes me BIG time for that. It was all for the best because guess who I see right as the door opened.
A familiar face hovering near a girl’s ear with a leaning forward motion (looks so eerily a blast from the past but standing up as opposed to sitting down). Frozen smile.
Moving on.
Tabu was on the hit list. Good music. Steady vibe. Expensive drinks (downside boo). Free drinks. Dance. Stoking the heat. Dancing. Dancing. Dancing.
(Shout out to Chai for all the photos. I purposely left my camera at home since I was all about the clubbing and dancing that night. I have no decent shots haha but who cares?)
Hold my hand and will have a blast. I got a feeling… Woo-hoo… that tonight’s gonna be a good night. Coz tonight’s gonna be a good GOOD night.
Chai bumped into some college friends. Madz met a new friend. The free drink I got I was gonna pass on to another group when a shadow is up in the same joint I was in again. Sprint out of there. That’s what you do.
Oh coincidence? Right. More like haunted.
Club Bureau. Time check: 2:30 AM. NO lines. There you go. No photos but that time with Madz was fantastic. G-Rrr-eat hip hop/RnB/dance music. Vodka tasted good –not the shoddy kind. Danced to the music. Danced with the music.
Nightcap was spent at Bugsy’s. Buffalo tenders and breakfast meals are the sweet tone to end the rough but splendid night. Chai brought me home by 630AM. Alcohol was still flowing in my veins as my tired body drifts me to sleep.

A Michael Jackson movie could hit theaters by the end of 2009. Rumor is Sony Pictures is willing to pay the 50-million dollar deal for worldwide rights. AEG Entertainment, the company who owns the 80-hour material showing Michael Jackson rehearsing for his planned series of comeback concerts, had previewed the footage to different Hollywood studios. The television rights are up for bidding at $10 million.
Kenny Ortega, the choreographer for the King of Pop’s “This Is It” concerts might direct the movie. He is also famed for the hit film, “High School Musical.”
We’ve seen a few clips of the rehearsal footages but that’s only a morsel compared to what AEG has in their possession. The footage released last July 2 showed the international pop superstar practicing a song-and-dance routine at Los Angeles’s Staples Center two days before his death. The footage shows that Jackson had been in good health prior to the day he died.
Jackson was found barely breathing on June 25 at his rented Los Angeles mansion. A final cause of death has not been revealed as coroners await the results of toxicology tests.

The Battle for Michael Jackson’s Estate Continues
Millions of people all over the world stayed tune to the live coverage of Michael Jackson’s public memorial. 20,000 people flock to Staples Center, Los Angeles to celebrate the King of Pop’s life. Family and friends of Michael Jackson remembered his contribution to the music and to the world.
Brooke Shields expressed her breaking heart as she remembered her younger moments with Michael Jackson, as well as Berry Gordon, founder of MoTown Records, Magic Johnson and Kobe Bryant, Stevie Wonder.
The most touching moment for me during the memorial is when the whole family of MJ was onstage and Paris Jackson, one of Michael Jackson‘s three young children, and spoke about her late father. With Janet Jackson on her side, she broke down saying that her father is the best father imaginable… her voice cracked as well as her heart when she expressed her love for her father.
Growing up under shades, blanket, masks, Michael Jackson made efforts to protect his children’s faces from the paparazzi for more than a decade. But on Tuesday, in front of an audience of thousands at the Staples Center and millions more around the globe, 12-year-old Michael Joseph Jr., known as Prince Michael; 11-year-old Paris-Katherine; and 7-year-old Prince Michael II, known as Blanket clutching a Michael Jackson doll, sat in the front row, taking in their father’s memorial service at Staples Center.
The ceremony’s significant spotlight was on Paris addressing the crowd while fighting back sobs. She breaks down in public in remembrance of her dad as millions of fans’ heart mourned with her.
“Ever since I was born, Daddy has been the best father you could ever imagine,” she said, her tiny voice cracking. “And I just wanted to say I love him — so much.”
Another tearful moment was Jermaine Jackson singing a song for his brother. Viewers all over the world were stricken with emotion when the elder Jackson who was in tears performed his brother’s favorite song, “Smile.”
The group performed “We are the World” on the stage to honor Jackson’s role in bridging races.
Jackson sold an estimated 750 million copies of his album. Only Elvis Presley and the Beatles are within this record.

The Battle for Michael Jackson’s Estate Continues
Jackson’s public memorial is scheduled on Tuesday in Los Angeles, California. Ticket winners started retrieving their passes to the Staples Center ceremony. More than 1.6 million people registered for the free entrance tickets. From the registered million, only about 9,000 names were picked. The ticket allocation is two per person. Email notifications were sent to the lucky fans that scored the hottest ticket in town. Sadly, some were selling their much-coveted tickets on Ebay starting at USD 3,000.
The list of participants at the memorial includes Stevie Wonder, Mariah Carey, Kobe Bryant, Brooke Shields, Motown founder Berry Gordy, Lionel Richie, John Mayer, Usher, Jennifer Hudson and Martin Luther King III.
While the memorial organizers, Los Angeles police and Michael Jackson fans are busy in the upcoming public memorial at Staples Center, the battle for the King of Pop’s estate continues. Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Mitchell Beckloff ruled against the request of Jackson’s mother to be put in charge of Jackson’s estate. The judge granted Michael Jackson’s longtime attorney, John Branca and music executive and family friend, John McClain to oversee the pop singer’s estate for now. Based on the 2002 will that surfaced recently, Jackson wanted the two to administer his estate.
Jackson died June 25, deeply in debt. But a court filing estimates that his estate will be worth more than $500 million. His assets are supposed to be for a private trust. Michael Jackson owned a 50 percent stake in the massive Sony-ATV Music Publishing Catalog, which includes music by the Beatles, Bob Dylan, Neil Diamond, Lady Gaga and the Jonas Brothers.

The family also asked if Jackson’s mother, Katherine can co-administer the estate with Branca and McClain to ensure that there is no conflict of interest since the two also has involvement in Jackson’s other shares. They also wanted more time to see if another would emerge and to accommodate Jackson’s memorial service. The judge however denied the request.
The judge further grants Branca and McClain several powers over the estate, including the rights to negotiate a settlement with concert promoter AEG Live over refunds for Jackson’s canceled London shows.
Michael Jackson’s life and legacy will be memorialized publicly at the Staples Center, Los Angeles, California. People all over the world are organizing memorial services as well at their own locals to pay tribute to the King of Pop not only as a performer but bearer of a good heart.

Michael Jackson’s Doctor Investigated
Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) agents and LAPD detectives searched the residence and office of Conrad Murray, each location a week apart. Murray is Michael Jackson’s doctor who is believed to have given Jackson a lethal dose of anesthetic Propofol.
Propofol is used to induce unconsciousness in patients ahead of major surgery. In hospitals, only a trained anesthesiologist is allowed to administer the drug under strict monitoring conditions.
TMZ.com reported that Murray had told police in an interview he gave Jackson Propofol via an intravenous drip. The website reported police believe Murray may have fallen asleep while the drug was being administered, and awoke to find the singer already dead.
If Murray did inject Jackson with Propofol negligently, he can be charged with homicide.
The federal agents and police came to his office a week earlier with a search warrant seeking evidence for the “offense of manslaughter”
The LA Coroner’s office reported that the toxicology result is due by the end of this week.
