Star Magic Ball 2012 -- Maricar Reyes

Maricar Reyes wears Ivarluski Aseron to the Star Magic Ball 2012. I got to watch her guesting on Kris TV with beau, crooner Richard Poon. It's good to see they're looking so happy.

Maricar is one of the few very visible Star Magic artist. She last starred in "Nang Dahil Sa Pag-ibig" with Jericho Rosales, Cristine Reyes, and Piolo Pascual. She also guested in "Please Be Careful With My Heart" as Rockie.

20 Years of Star Magic on ASAP (Part 3)

These scanned photos are featured in Star Studio Magazine September 2012 issue. Star Magic celebrated 20 years in a special ASAP segment.

Featured are Maricar Reyes, Melissa Ricks, Charee Pineda, and Jessy Mendiola.

Maricar Reyes wears Francis Libiran 

Maricar Reyes was last seen on TV show "Nang Dahil sa Pag-ibig" opposite Jericho Rosales. She is now dating crooner Richard Poon. Both have guested on morning show "Kris TV" to talk about their relationship.

Melissa Ricks wears Nat Manilag

Melissa Ricks is part of hit TV show "Walang Hanggan" where she plays a semi-villain role. I actually think she's suited to such roles. She's rumored to be dating Paul Jake Castillo, a product of Pinoy Big Brother Season 4. Her break up with ex- Jake Cuenca was pretty controversial for a while.

Charee Pineda wears Marvin Garcia

Charee Pineda stars in afternoon drama "Angelito: Ang Bagong Yugto," which is a sequel to the hit show that catapulted leading man JM de Guzman to fame as one of local showbiz's hottest and newest leading men.

Jessy Mendiola wears Nat Manilag

Jessy Mendiola has been compared to Kristine Hermosa in terms of beauty. True enough, she is one of local showbiz's prettiest faces. She starred in the movie "The Reunion." I wonder what her next TV project is. I think her last was "Budoy" where she played opposite Gerald Anderson.

"Kung Tayo'y Magkakalayo" was a star-studded telenovela that starred Queen of All Media Kris Aquino as Kim Chiu's mom. Coco Martin was just one of the supporting casts then. He has since gone on to star in his own TV series. The same thing with then newcomer Jessy Mendiola who was Coco Martin's love interest in the series. This was a pretty good soap as it combined drama and action. Kim's character was a breather too as it featured her as a rebellious daughter, a role she rarely plays.

Dahil May Isang Ikaw was nominated in the 2010 International Emmy Awards in  the Telenovela category and Sid Lucero for Best Performance By An Actor for his role as Alfred "Red" Ramirez. This was also the reunion project for former loveteam Jericho Rosales and Kristine Hermosa. Lorna Tolentino also made a comeback in this project. I remember there was an issue with Lorna and Chin Chin in one of the confrontational scenes of the show too. Karylle's portrayal of her character was pretty good, but I haven't watched her in a local drama in a while.

ABS-CBN Kapamilya stars also presented a combination parade cum fashion show of interesting and odd mix of fashion ensembles. Above photos show: Erich Gonzales, Jewel Mische, and Maricar Reyes with Sam Milby. ^_^

Maricar Reyes

I can't help but think that Maricar Reyes is a kapamilya favorite. Since she was discovered and launched, and later on got caught in a sex video scandal, Maricar is hardly absent from tv or movie projects. She has kept mum about the scandal issue and it seemed to turn to her favor. Anyway, I think she's a talented actress.

I may not have liked Maricar's role in "Lovers in Paris" remake as Karen, but I did like her Samantha character on "Immortal." I think she stood out in her performance there. I was sorry they had to kill off her character towards the end.

(Star Magic 2010)

Maricar's first attendance at Star Magic Ball. Her guesting role on "Betty la Fea" remake paved the way for her movie and tv appearances, but I believe it was the video scandal that made people pay more attention to her. A few years down the line, perhaps not many would remember it anymore. It will be good to watch Maricar as one of the lead characters in any project.
