PEP’s 20 Sexiest Celebs of 2008

Year 2008 saw sexy celebrities not only on the big and small screens, but even on fashion ramps and publicity prints. But unlike the show-it-all boldness in the past, last year’s hottest stars chose to display their finely chiselled physique, shapely curves, and flawless complexion in various ways: posing for glossy magazines, endorsing health and beauty products, doing a musical number, or playing a role. That’s sex appeal with pizzazz!

Now, PEP (Philippine Entertainment Portal) presents the top 20 sexiest male and female celebrities of 2008. Our list is based on a survey we conducted among lifestyle magazine editors, writers, and showbiz insiders. Ranking in both gender categories starts from the bottom up.

SEXIEST LADIES

10. Luningning. One writer describes Luningning as the only reason he continues to watch Wowowee. Luningning’s sexiness on television can be described as “wholesome,” appealing not only to the adult audience but to the young Luningning-wannabes who dream of a dance showdown with her.

YES! magazine’s “Wowowillie” issue sold-out; reprints ordered

Willie Revillame has been very forthright about the story of his life. As the face of the controversial daily noontime show Wowowee, the guy who entered the business as a drummer has given us more than a glimpse of his not-usually-trouble-free world.

But just when we thought we’ve heard it all, YES! magazine published a tell-all feature, which had Willie tackling the issues and controversies that continue to hound his public image.

The January issue uncovers the various facets of his life, including the myths surrounding the man fondly referred to by his loyal followers as “Papi.” The 48-page feature was the result of an exhausting no-holds-barred interview that clocked in, as accurately stated by associate editor Anna Pingol, “seven one-hour back-to-back macro cassette audiotapes.”

Lindsay Lohan: It’s not over with Ronson

LOS ANGELES – Lindsay Lohan says she hasn’t split with DJ Samantha Ronson, despite media reports they had publicly sparred several times over the holidays.

In a brief post on her MySpace blog, the 22-year-old actress wrote: “We did NOT break up!”

Lohan asked several media outlets “AND every GOSSIP website” to get their stories straight.

The “Mean Girls” star also complained Monday that her friends had been e-mailing her to console her about the rumored breakup with the 31-year-old Ronson. The pair had confirmed their relationship last September.

Lohan’s publicist, Leslie Sloane-Zelnik, didn’t immediately respond to a message seeking comment.

Former employee of Belo Clinic is the “missing piece” in Hayden-Vicki breakup

hayden_kho.JPG

“She’s no longer connected,” ang sabi ng sumagot sa telepono nang tumawag kaninang hapon, January 5,  sa Belo Medical Office sa Medical Plaza Building, Makati City, para hanapin si Princess Velasco.

Si Princess Velasco ang “missing piece” sa puzzling breakup nina Dra. Vicki Belo at Dr. Hayden Kho. Si Princess ay dating manager sa Belo Medical Clinic at girlfriend siya ng best friend na doktor ni Hayden.

Lumitaw ang pangalan ni Princess dahil sa mga impormasyon na natanggap ng PEP matapos ipalabas ng Startalk noong Sabado, January 3, ang kanilang exclusive interview kay Hayden. Nadamay ang pangalan ni Princess dahil na rin sa mga pahayag ni Hayden at sa rebelasyon ni Butch Francisco sa Startalk na sangkot din sa breakup nina Dra. Belo at Hayden ang girlfriend ng isang doktor.

hayden_kho2.JPG

Kahapon, January 3, sa Startalk, muling humarap si Dr. Hayden Kho sa dalawang hosts ng Startalk na sina Ricky Lo at Lolit Solis. Nag-back-to-back nga ang feature ng Startalk kay Hayden at kay Katrina Halili.

PLAY WITH FIRE AND YOU’LL GET BURNED. Unang tanong na ibinato ni Lolit kay Hayden ay kung talagang mahal na mahal niya si Dra. Vicki Belo, ano’t nagawa raw ni Hayden ang magkaroon ng affair sa iba?

“Hindi ko po ano…aaminin ko po, bata po ako, pero, it’s not an excuse. Bata po ako. Naglaro rin ako. Naglaro ako sa apoy at napaso ako.”

Tila nagiging tradisyon na nga ni Dingdog Dantes at ng kanyang pamilya na mag-spend ng holidays sa Boracay. Nagkataon naman na may mga crew rin ang Startalk sa Bora kung kaya’t nakausap nila si Dingdong during his vacation right after Christmas.

Ayon nga kay Dingdong, “Masaya! It’s my second year na kasama ko sila rito and it’s getting better. I’m always inspired, especially by them, kaya nga kapag ganitong okasyon, nakaka-engganyo, because you know, at the end of working so hard the whole year, ito ang nilu-look forward ko.

Para kay Jake Cuenca, magandang pagkakataon ang ma-feature muli siya sa Maalaala Mo Kaya especially for its opening salvo this year. Bukas ng gabi, January 3, sa MMK ay muling mapapanood ang balik-tambalan ni Jake at Roxanne Guinoo. Gumaganap sila bilang mag-asawa na nalamang infertile or baog pala ang Jake character.

“‘Yung mindset namin ni Roxanne at ng mga staff and crew kahit good take na, kapag pinapanood namin ang playback at hindi kami emotionally satisfied sa nangyari, wala nang hiya-hiya, uulitin namin. ‘Yung mindset namin na it’s opening salvo. We have to start the year right at siyempre, balik tambalan din namin ni Rox. Kumbaga, kailangan meron kaming ipapakita sa mga tao na hindi pa naming naipapakita.”

Anderson Cooper and Kathy Griffin - Best pair to welcome the New Year

Watch these two during the New Year’s eve celebration in New York. I cannot believe the discussion they were having while waiting for the ball to drop - it was hysterical. We (gays) know how hot Anderson Cooper is and how he’s somewhat out of the closet (did you see my post when he took on the challenge to race Michael Phelps?) and how we (gays?) LOVE LOVE Kathy Griffin.  You know she was trying to out him completely that night.. haha.  Imagine her asking Anderson to name the children of Sarah Palin - - and when she mentioned Crystal (”Crystal is my favorite”) , I almost died.

Anyway, watch the clip.. and enjoy.

Access Hollywood’s Most Searched and Top Stars Of 2008

78528_george-clooney-at-the-65th-venice-film-festival-aug-2008.jpg

To kick things off, it’s the town’s most eligible bachelor – George Clooney. Gentleman George came in at number five, with 30 stories on Access Hollywood in 2008. From fighting off engagement rumors, to his split from gal pal Sarah Larson… and even a rumored return to “ER,” Clooney was a staple in 2008.

 81315_tom-cruise-at-the-valkyrie-premiere-los-angeles-dl.jpg

Coming in right ahead of George was fellow box office superstar Tom Cruise, who appeared in 31 Access Hollywood stories in the past year. A reunion with Oprah, a reconciliation with Matt Lauer, taking on his “Valkyrie” role and shooting down rumors of a “Top Gun” sequel were just a few of the headlines that brought Tom to our airwaves in 2008.

Movie stars certainly weren’t the only ones showing up on Access over and over again this year. In fact, Justin Timberlake bested Clooney and Cruise with 33 stories this year. Kicking things off with his bruising Super Bowl Pepsi ad, taking the stage as host of the ESPYs and ending the year in high heels alongside Beyonce on “Saturday Night Live,” all the while dodging countless relationship questions about girlfriend Jessica Biel, JT reigned supreme when it came to Access’ male music star coverage in ’08.

jake_cuenca_roxanne_guinoo.JPG 

Bukas ng gabi, January 3, ay mapapanood na ang episode ng Maalaala Mo Kaya, tampok ang former lovers na sina Roxanne Guinoo at Jake Cuenca.
Bagama’t parehong professional ang dalawa pagdating sa kanilang trabaho ay aminado naman si Jake na nagkaroon ng ilangan sa pagitan nila ni Roxanne noong first taping day. Hindi naman kaila sa publiko na hindi naging maayos ang paghihiwalay ng dating magkasintahan na nasundan pa diumano ng isang pagtatalo sa Guam.

“Siyempre may konting ilangan sa simula pero true enough ‘yong first two sequences, ‘yong first sequence kissing scene, ‘yong second scene parang bed scene. So, when we got that out of the way, nung nagawa na namin ‘yong dalawang eksena ‘yon na smooth sailing na the whole time,” kuwento ni Jake nang makausap ito at ilan pang entertainment reporters noong December 30 sa CRIBS Foundation sa Marikina City kung saan nagdiwang siya ng kanyang 21st birthday.

OhEmGee!! Scott Caan shows off his goods… :)

 scottcaan1116-thumb.jpg

Muscular, swaggering and tough, Scott Caan gives every indication of becoming a “man’s-man” like his father, legendary actor James Caan. While it is obvious that he admires tough method actors like Marlon Brando and Sean Penn, James Caan’s eldest son also has a strong egalitarian streak, evidenced by his reasoning for baring his body in the film Varsity Blues (1999). He is quoted as saying that originally only the women in the scene were to be nude, but that he felt it really sexist, so he stripped too.

While changing at the beach over the weekend, he accidentally showed off his willy under the wrap-around towel he was wearing.    Guess where I found the pics?

3. DINGDONG DANTES (Actor, PHILIPPINES ) - Dingdong’s name seems to be so interesting, different, and sexy
for all those celebrities that described him. He was introduced as a fine
Filipino fellow who was born in 1980 with the name Jose Sixto Dantes III, but
his friends call him Dingdong.
