Brazilian-Japanese model Akihiro Sato named winner of Survivor Philippines Celebrity Showdown

Brazilian-Japanese hunk Akihiro Sato was voted winner of Survivor Philippines during the live season finale held earlier tonight at GMA studio.



Akihiro Sato, who's turning 27 this December 9, won P3-million cash prize (tax-free) and becomes the first ever Celebrity Sole Survivor as well as the first non-Filipino winner of Survivor Philippines.

He got 3 votes from the Jury, good enough to defeat Solenn Heussaff and Ervic Vijandre, who each had 2 votes.

The finale episode actually began with the announcement of the 7th Jury member.

Here's how the 6 Jury members and the Final 4 voted: (the name on the
right was the one they voted off)

Jon - Solenn
Aira - Ervic
Michelle - Ervic
Ahron- Aubrey
Elma - Aubrey
Moi - Solenn
Akihiro - Aubrey
Aubrey - Akihiro
Ervic - Akihiro
Solenn - Akihiro

It was actually the results of the voting during their last tribal
council at the island. As you can see, it resulted to a tie between Akihiro and Aubrey, both getting 3 vote-off points.

Thus, all (except for Aubrey and Aki of course) had to vote again between Aubrey and Aki as to who should join the Jury. Solenn, Ervic and Moi voted against Akihiro and the rest voted off Aubrey, making
her as the 7th member of the Jury and leaving Aki, Ervic and Solenn to become the Final 3.

Aubrey was given time by host Richard Gutierrez to say her final words and without showing any bitterness, she gracefully said, "I know I'm really deserving to win but I know that it's not meant for me. Pero gusto ko lang sabihin sa lahat na...we're not here to compete about who we are but we are here to compete about how we played the game."

While she was talking, Aubrey's partner Troy Montero along with her 2 sons were shown in the audience. Her son, the older one, was already crying while Troy looked kinda disappointed with the results.

And then the Jury, now including Aubrey, had to make the hardest decision by voting who should become the 1st Celebrity Sole Survivor.

It was one close fight with Aki getting 3 votes, while Solenn and Ervic each with 2 votes.

Akihiro cried after his name was announced as winner and then a woman from the audience, probably his live-in partner, rushed to the stage to hug him.

Did the best or the most deserving celebrity castaway win? Or did they
pick the wrong winner?

For me, Akihiro was the right choice 'coz he was able to master not only the physical challenges, but also the social aspects of the game. He has proven that it always pays to be nice.

How about you? Share your thoughts below.

Survivor Philippines Finale: Who will be the first Celebrity Sole Survivor? | Solenn Heussaff tops Popularity Poll

In less than 7 hours, the first ever Celebrity Sole Survivor will be revealed on the live finale tonight on GMA 7's Survivor Philippines Celebrity Showdown.

Who among Akihiro Sato, Aubrey Miles, Ervic Vijandre and Solenn Heussaff should win as the first Celebrity Sole Survivor and take home the P3million grand prize?

It's all up to the Jury Members to decide who's the most deserving of them all.

But if the show's fans are to be asked, most of them probably want either Solenn or Akihiro to win.

Mykiru's Popularity Poll, which was conducted since the show's pilot and asked fans to vote for their favorites among the 18 castaways, shows Solenn on top with 16.7% of the total votes. And because she topped the poll, Mykiru now names Solenn (pictured below) as the Most Popular Castaway of Survivor Philippines Celebrity Showdown.



Akihiro is in far second with 12% while Ahron Villena, who's already eliminated, gets 3rd place with 10.8% and Aubrey comes 4th with 7.6%.

Buwi Meneses, Princess Snell, Pretty Trizsa and Mykah Flores meanwhile are the least favorites, getting only 1-2% of the total votes.

"Puso ng Pasko Artista Challenge" will be replacing Survivor Philippines Celebrity Showdown which will air its grand finale on December 3, 2010.

Starting December 6 on GMA Telebabad, 12 pairs of celebrities will take on the challenge in "Puso ng Pasko", the 1st ever reality Krismaserye on Philippine TV.

Original hosts of "Puso ng Pasko" were reportedly real-life lovers Dingdong Dantes-Marian Rivera and Drew Arellano-Iya Villania.

But we all know what happened to Iya right? She stayed with ABS-CBN, leaving Drew as host in the show.

Richard Gutierrez meanwhile was supposed to be one of the 12 challengers with Solenn Heussaff as his partner. But Chard eventually backed out. Why? (For sure, you guys could guess the reason why!).

On Showbiz Central yesterday, it was announced that the official hosts of Puso ng Pasko Artista Challenge are Drew Arellano, Rhian Ramos, Vicky Morales and Richard Gutierrez.

Husband-and-wife Cesar Montano and Sunshine Cruz are last-minute addition as one of the 12 pairs, taking over the slot of Richard & Solenn.

Moi Marcampo is out! Survivor Philippines now down to its Final 4

Piolo Pascual's former yaya Moi Marcampo has been voted off tonight from Survivor Philippines Celebrity Showdown.



It was a surprising elimination for the viewers who never thought that it would be Moi.

Though he voted against Moi, Akihiro Sato was visibly shocked with the results. He thought he's next to exit the game following the immunity challenge, which caused conflict between him and Aubric (Aubrey Miles-Ervic Vijandre). (Related story HERE)

Aubric, Aki and Solenn Heussaff are now the Final 4 of Survivor
Philippines Celebrity Showdown.

Moi's failure to reach Top 4 disproves the rumor which circulated when the show premiered August 30 that she's the Sole Survivor of the season.

The rumor was believed to have started from 2 "Kapamilya" Twitter users (one is a comedian) who probably wanted to spoil the show.

Tonight's episode was full of excitement as Ervic and Akihiro were confrontational as they shared how they feel about each other, still in connection with their face-off during the immunity challenge.

Aki said that he should have not joined Survivor Philippines if he knew that it's gonna be a dirty game. When asked by host Richard Gutierrez about what he learned from the game, he said, "I've learned 3 things that in this game, you have to be plastic, you have to be selfish and you have to be liar."

Ervic meanwhile had these words against Aki: "Parang pinapalabas nya na may utang na loob ako sa kanya. Wala ba akong ginawa para sa sarili ko kaya nandito ako? Sumakay lang ba 'ko sa likod ni Akihiro? Akala ko talaga noong una, ang nice nya, ang bait nya, pero hindi pala."

But surprisingly, despite that heated exchange of words, the two didn't vote off each other.

Survivor Philippines: Who now hates Ervic Vijandre?

A lot of people are now hating Ervic Vijandre after watching tonight's episode of Survivor Philippines Celebrity Showdown.



The endurance challenge shown tonight had Ervic and Akihiro Sato as the last men standing, fighting for a brand new car or an immunity necklace as the prize.

Before the game ended, Akihiro made an agreement with Ervic that he would give up the game for Ervic so the latter could have the car provided he will give the immunity necklace to Akihiro.

Ervic agreed. Akihiro then gave up the game. Ervic won and chose the car.

But he gave the immunity necklace to Aubrey Miles, and not to Akihiro.

Many viewers were disappointed with what happened.

Just on Twitter alone, tweets about Ervic are mostly negative comments.

Here are some of them:

@johncyrene: ervic has no word of honor to aki. Traitor in the game...walang sportsmanship

@yllenram kainis si aubrey at ervic magsama kayong dalawa!!!!!!

@rogeGREENpaBLUE hindi ko na crush si #ervic...d nya man lang inisip c #aki...ang galing talaga ni #aubrey magmanipulate...

Those are actually still nice tweets. Some other tweets are offensive and below-the-belt, or personal attacks to Ervic.

I feel sad for Ervic. Just because of that wrong move, he's now the 2nd most hated castaway this season, next of course to Aubrey Miles.

Meanwhile, Aubrey, who probably is receiving not so nice remarks about her lately, posted this on Twitter this morning: "Survivor is not looking for a ROLE MODEL or who has the kindest heart. It's a game of survival, doing what you don't normally do in real life."

I don't agree with what Aubrey said because in Survivor Philippines, you need not be bad just to win the game. Whether you're in a survival game or in any competition, you can still be wise and nice at the same time.

Ervic Vijandre butt exposure on Survivor Philippines

Ervic Vijandre had an accidental butt exposure while doing a physical challenge on Survivor Philippines Celebrity Showdown.



It happened while Ervic, as member of Sar Mayee, was doing the reward challenge, a mud challenge which they eventually won.

It turned out that Ervic wasn't wearing an underwear and so the exposure happened.

But of course, Ervic's behind had to be blurred when it was shown on tonight's episode. (Ang killjoy ng GMA haha! So disappointing lol!)

Maybe let's just imagine how Pretty Trizsa felt when he saw it. He was able to see all of Ervic not only the "pwet". How lucky!Source URL: https://mykiru1.blogspot.com/search/label/ERVIC%20VIJANDRE

Survivor Philippines Celebrity Showdown: Who went naked?

Did you watch the pilot episode of Survivor Philippines Celebrity
Showdown last night? It was already exciting and the castaways were
indeed so much prepared for an island drama in Thailand.

Karen delos Reyes is already showing her bratty personality while Aubrey Miles is starting to unlike 40-year-old Mykah Flores. "Di ko
maintindihan kung innocent sya o ignorant," she said.

Michelle Madrigal is indeed very kikay while Solenn Heussaff is still reserved for now.

As for the boys, Ervic Vijandre is lookin' so great on TV. He has this "animalistic" stance that Dingdong Dantes also has. Now we know what Marian Rivera likes in a boyfriend.

Akihiro Sato is not in his best form but he's adorable as always while
Jon Hall looks so tough and hard. (I can imagine he's so wild in bed)

Doc Ferdz Recio is effortlessly sexy! Looking forward to more shirtless scenes of Doc Ferdz. Ahron Villena has a killer bod. (Pang-romansa daw!)

A teaser was shown last night and Pretty Trizsa is well-prepared to seduce the boys and she started it by asking a kiss from Ervic.

It's also exciting to know who among the hunky castaways whose undies got pulled down and went accidentally naked in one of the challenges. Can you guess who among these 7 hunks?


Ahron Villena, Akihiro Sato


Ian Batherson, Doc Ferdz Recio,


Jon Hall, Ervic Vijandre, Mico Aytona

Ervic Vijandre to reveal a secret of Marian Rivera? | Dingdong Dantes not open to working with Ervic

Basketball player and model Ervic Vijandre is among the 18 castaways on GMA 7's Survivor Philippines Showdown which is about to premiere tonight.





But before we know him now as a Survivor castaway, we already knew him so well as Marian Rivera's boyfriend for 8 years before Dingdong Dantes.

And now that Ervic is entering showbiz for real, he's not spared from facing intrigues and endless issues about ex-love Marian Rivera. But is Marian already his "ex-love" or does he still love her?

Ervic indeed has lots of issues to face. How true that Dingdong was the reason why he and Marian broke up? And how about the rumor that he was trying to win Marian back but the actress dumped him and chose Dingdong?

There's also this rumor that Ervic is going to reveal a secret about Marian. I don't think it's gonna or it should happen. If he's a true gentleman, he won't reveal anything against Marian.

But how about working with Marian and Dingdong in a teleserye or a movie? That's one good idea, but Dingdong is quick to disapprove on this one.

In an article by Mario Bautista published on Journal Online yesterday, it seems Dingdong doesn't like the idea. He also doesn't like Ervic to use Marian in his entry to showbiz. "Honestly, it won't be a good idea. Mas mabuti if he'd make it on his own talent so he won't be accused na he's just banking on a past relationship," he said.

Aside from issues with Marian, Ervic also has to face a malicious rumor that he allegedly caused the breakup of Paolo Bediones and Abby Cruz last year just because of the "cozy" photos of Ervic and Abby in Boracay? (Ervic and Abby were both finalists in the Century Tuna Superbods '09 held in Bora)

I remember those pictures. I once posted them here before. Ang babaw naman kung ganon!Source URL: https://mykiru1.blogspot.com/search/label/ERVIC%20VIJANDRE

Marian's ex-bf Ervic Vijandre among finalists for Century Tuna Superbods '09

The twenty (20) official finalists for the Century Tuna Superbods '09 have been announced yesterday and one of them is Marian Rivera's ex-boyfriend Ervic Vijandre (photo).

Ervic, 23, from Taguig City, is a model and a basketball player. He was also one of Cosmo's 69 Bachelors for 2008.

Aside from Ervic, this year's line-up of challengers is as exciting as the previous years, especially with the inclusion of familiar faces such as Star Magic Batch 16 member David Nagtalon, Man of the Year Philippines 2005 Joseph Kidwell, one of Metro Mag's Smoking Hot Men of Summer Van Victor Leano and model-actor Rey Talosig, who was a member of SOP's Take 5 Boys.

Among the female finalists, most notable is Paolo Bediones' beauty queen girlfriend Abby Cruz, who is in the news right now due to a Boracay scandal along with two other beauty queens.

Abby recently joined Binibining Pilipinas 2009 but was unplaced. She already participated two years ago in Binibining Pilipinas and was 1st Runner Up. I also saw her auditioning for Miss Philippines Earth 2009.

Joining her as one of the finalists is Fil-Canadian Theresa Fenger who joined a number of beauty pageants and singing contests in Canada. Fenger was also a recording artist in Japan and was crowned Miss Global Teen Canada in 2004.

Ms. Sexy Body 2009 winner Kriska Gonido is also in the list. She was also one of the ASF Dancers in Wowowee. Mr. Wowowee Willie Revillame used to label her as "Paloma".

Cherry Ann Kubota tries her luck once more in a summer bikini competition after placing 1st Runner Up in Mossimo Bikini Summit 2007. She also graced the cover of FHM in November 2008.

Another Binibining Pilipinas contestant is among the finalists this year. Bianca Paz, who was unplaced in the 2009 Binibining Pilipinas pageant, is also the former girlfriend of actor Polo Ravales.

Most of the finalists for Century Tuna Superbods '09 are from Metro Manila. (Only three finalists are outside Metro Manila).

Here's the complete list of 20 Finalists (10 Males and 10 Females) for the Century Tuna Superbods 2009 Bods and Brains Challenge:
