Jaymee Joaquin, ‘Games Uplate Live’ host, dies at 44
Filipina actress and host Jaymee Joaquin has passed away after a long battle with breast cancer. She was 44 years old. Colleague-turned-friend Corss Ebora-Valenton paid tribute to the former actress on 19 October. “She was powerful not because she wasn’t scared but because she went on so strongly despite the fear. You will be dearly missed, Jayms,” Valenton wrote. Valenton added that she was grateful for the opportunity to work and be reunited with Joaquin the previous year for Jaymee’s passion project titled Beautiful Scars, which chronicles Filipina breast cancer “thrivers.” “Itutuloy at tatapusin namin ang proyekto natin. Your legacy lives on with the @beautifulscarsdocu,” she added. Meanwhile, Joaquin’s cousin, Erika Geronimo, also shared the news of her death. “It is with a heavy heart that our family announces the passing of my cousin, Jaymee Topacio aka Jaymee Wins or Jaymee Joaquin. She lived an extraordinary life filled with adventure, laughter, and love. She inspired and touched a lot of lives through her advocacy and talent. She will be greatly missed and will always be in our loving memory as a strong woman,” Geronimo wrote. “A life so beautifully lived deserves to be beautifully remembered,” she concluded. Joaquin’s acting and hosting career in the Philippines blossomed when she was the game show jock for the late-night interactive show Games Uplate Live. She also appeared in numerous television shows and movies, such as Super Inggo 2: Ang Bagong Bangis (2007), Shake, Rattle and Roll 9 (2007), My Big Love (2008) and Tanging Ina Niyong Lahat (2008). In 2016, the former Star Magic actress was diagnosed with breast cancer. Despite her cancer recurring four times and forcing her to go through multiple surgeries, Joaquin maintained a healthy and positive mindset. She ventured into blogging, podcasting and writing two books, titled That Sh*t Called Cancer and No-Hair Mama, Don’t Care.

Nathan Studios acquires critically acclaimed Japanese film ‘Monster’
Nathan Studios, the brainchild of the Atayde family and helmed by president and chief executive officer Ria Atayde, has once again showcased its commitment to delivering cutting-edge content. Owned by the Atayde family, Nathan Studios is a top-tier production outfit committed to delivering groundbreaking content. With different projects spanning series, movies and live events, the studio has consistently showcased narratives that challenge conventions and resonate deeply with audiences. Under Ria’s leadership, the company has produced notable projects like Cattleya Killer, Misis Piggy and Topakk. During their recent visit to the Cannes Film Festival, the Nathan Studios team, in collaboration with veteran actress Lorna Tolentino and 888 Films International, secured the rights to the critically acclaimed Japanese drama film Monster. Directed by Hirokazu Kore-eda and penned by Yuji Sakamoto, Monster bagged the Best Screenplay award at Cannes. Monster marks a significant milestone for director Kore-eda, as it’s the first time he has directed a film he didn’t write himself since Maborosi in 1995. Its score also holds a special place in cinematic history, as the last project by the legendary Ryuichi Sakamoto, who died of cancer two months before its release. The film stands as a tribute to his memory. At its core, Monster is an emotional exploration of adolescence, deceit and the consequences that arise from them. Through the eyes of three different characters, the film demands patience from its viewers, promising a payoff filled with well-earned emotional revelations. The narrative revolves around Minato, his mother Saori and his classmate Eri, each offering a unique viewpoint on the unfolding events, revealing buried truths that trouble all the characters. Kore-eda’s exceptional camera work, combined with Sakamoto’s tender script, creates a cinematic masterpiece.

In the caption to two photos showing her with a smiling Martin, Liza, the life partner of singer-actor Ice Seguerra, wrote: "So yeah, my dad is fighting the big C (stage 4) but we won’t let if defeat us. I just realized its been a year now since we found out he is sick and while its been difficult for our family, we are inspired by my papa’s determination and fighting spirit. Ang dami nya pang gustong gawin. Ang dami nya pang gustong matulungan and I know nagpapalakas sya dahil gusto nyang bumalik sa public service." The rest of the caption said: "When challenges like these come your way, you can’t help but be grateful just for the fact that you get live another day; that being happy doesnt take that much because you recognize the value of the little things in life."

Deadly love, trauma, romance and death-defying stunts
[caption id="attachment_154993" align="aligncenter" width="669"] PHOTOGRAPH COURTESY OF VIVAMAXTHE cast of Vivamax’s ‘Deadly Love.’[/caption] Series Deadly Love. Last Wednesday, a few press members were teased with the first two episodes of Derick Cabrido’s romantic murder mystery Deadly Love at Cinema ’76 Tomas Morato. Top-billed by Louise Delos Reyes, Marco Gumabao, McCoy De Leon, and award-winning actress Jaclyn Jose, the series is set in a small fictional coastal town in the superstitious province of Pangasinan. Something sinister is lurking — but who? While I have problems with the clunky, inconsistent script, there is no denying that Cabrido knows how to hold your interest with his moody thriller. There is a mystery vibe all throughout, with my mind constantly swimming with guesses. But what strikes me the most is the breathtaking location and the pretty cinematography. The quality of the visuals is superb, evoking eerie feels all throughout, which makes me look forward to finishing the rest of the episodes. The miniseries will drop tomorrow, 10 July, on Viva One, Vivamax’s newest app. [caption id="attachment_154992" align="aligncenter" width="525"] PHOTOGRAPH COURTESY OF primE VIDEO‘THE Summer I Turned Pretty’ stars Lola Tung and Chris Briener.[/caption] The Summer I Turned Pretty Season 2. I am a big fan of Season 1, bingeing the entire season in two days tops. Based on Jenny Han’s best-selling books, the coming-of-age tale focuses on Belly (the captivating Lola Tung) and how her life unravels in an unforgettable summer at Cousins Beach. It’s basically a love triangle between teenagers. Still, even adults will fall in love with the wholly engrossing story that also involves Belly’s novelist mom (Jackie Chung) and her cancer-stricken best friend, Susannah (Rachel Blanchard). Season 2 picks up a year after the events of the first season and is based on Han’s book It’s Not Summer Without You. The eight episodes will drop on a weekly basis beginning 14 July on Amazon Prime. [caption id="attachment_154994" align="aligncenter" width="525"] PHOTOGRAPH COURTESY OF PARAMOUNT TOM Cruise and Vanessa Kirby in ‘Mission Impossible— Dead Reckoning Part One.[/caption] Movies Causeway. Another A24 gem. Jennifer Lawrence stars in Lila Neugebauer’s gripping and powerful drama Causeway as Lynsey, an injured soldier returning home from her Afghanistan tour. Suffering from traumatic brain injury, Lynsey struggles to return to her daily life in New Orleans. During rehabilitation, she befriends an auto-mechanic, played by Brian Tyree Henry, who also has physical and mental trauma. Slow-burn but rich with deeply explored themes on mental health, trauma, and friendship, Causeway, which earned Henry a nomination at the 95th Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor, is a must-see if you are on the hunt for quality drama. It is now streaming on AppleTV+. Mission: Impossible — Dead Reckoning Part One. The sequel to Mission: Impossible — Fallout (2018) and the seventh installment in the Mission: Impossible film series is a blockbuster event you would not want to miss. Dead Reckoning Part One follows the events of Fallout, where Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) leads his crew to save the world from a nuclear apocalypse. The trailer is enough to convince you to head to the cinema on its opening day on Wednesday, 12 July. The death-defying stunts, including a 61-year-old Tom Cruise riding a motorcycle off the edge of a cliff, should only be seen on the big screen. The beloved franchise’s latest offering will surely be one of the biggest cinematic events of the year.

On health issues: Kris Aquino begs supporters for prayers
Former TV host-actress Kris Aquino pleaded with netizens for continued prayers and urged them not to give up on her, as she revealed on social media her complex health condition. "How badly i wanted to keep this private because i’m scared baka mawalan kayo ng gana to keep praying for me & my doctors, my sons, and my sisters. Hindi ako sumusuko, sana wag rin kayo sumuko? Please?" She further disclosed that she has now five or possibly six autoimmune disorders. She is currently taking a "new biological injectable" to help bring down her IgE (Immunoglobulin E), the number of allergens in her blood which, according to her, remained "very high". "Naiyak na lang ako sa frustration because my blood panel numbers were bad. I won’t bore you with the details but my chest CT scan showed scarring & micronodules in my right lung," Kris said, adding that her doctor had a difficult time convincing her about methotrexate as she felt that her immune system wasn't ready yet. But when she saw her inflammatory numbers and ANA (antinuclear antibody) test were high, Kris eventually gave in to her doctor's advice. She started taking methotrexate slowly, increasing the dosage to 7.5 milligrams per week. "Roughly 13 hours ago, I started my 1st 'baby dose' of methotrexate," she said. According to her, methotrexate is in a class of medications called antimetabolites. "Methotrexate treats cancer by slowing the growth of cancer cells. Methotrexate treats psoriasis by slowing the growth of skin cells to stop scales from forming. Methotrexate may treat rheumatoid arthritis by decreasing the activity of the immune system," Kris expounded. In the video she shared, she was seen beside her doctor, eating what seems to be a pastry, and taking her medicine. "My gratitude post will follow," Kris promised.
