Andi Eigenmann Blogs About Her Baby's Father

Months after she admitted she was pregnant, Andi Eigenmann revealed the father of her child through her blog. Albie Casiño was named in one of her posts, although it was later edited and replaced with the words "the baby daddy (-_- really?)."

On the third paragraph of her September 4 post titled #welliwasneverreallytheconventionaltype, Andi originally wrote:

Maybe instead of feeling bad that Albie left me to take on this responsibility by myself, I should thank him for giving me the opportunity go out and find genuine happiness once again. I'd obviously love for him to be around eventually. You know, to save myself the struggle to find a good way to explain his absence to his child. At the same time, I'd understand. Cus after all, I have no idea who or what kind of a person all the fame and fortune has turned him into now. All I hope is that he's well.

Even before she made the post, though, people have always speculated that Albie was the father of the unborn since he was Andi's boyfriend when she got pregnant. It actually stained the wholesome image of the actor, and perhaps it was the reason why he was pulled out on some (if not all) of his acting projects that had been given to him before the news about Andi's pregnancy broke out.

Eventually, Albie was seen on Maalaala Mo Kaya and 100 Days to Heaven episodes. There were also reports that he would star in the TV adaptation of Problem Child where he would act opposite Cherie Gil, the original star of the movie who is also Andi's aunt. Recent talks, though, says that Albie will no longer be in the show. His role, according to the grapevine, had already been given to Paulo Avelino.

In the recent Star Magic Ball, Albie and Paulo seemed to be in good terms as evident in the photo below.

Mike Tan Takes Over Paulo Avelino's Role in an Upcoming Soap

The GMA-7 soap opera that Paulo Avelino turned down to transfer to ABS-CBN had been handed over to another a fellow StarStruck alumnus, Mike Tan. And perhaps this is the break Mike had been waiting for.

Mike Tan

Titled Kung Aagawin Mo ang Lahat (previously titled Magkaagaw), Mike Tan will be working alongside Carla Abellana and Michelle Madrigal.

This is quite a good news for the fans and supporters of Mike. A big break after a series of supporting roles since after he won the second season of StarStruck back in 2005.

Congratulations, Mike!

Paulo Avelino's First ABS-CBN Project is with Coco Martin and Julia Montes

Paulo Avelino has just signed a 2-year contract with ABS-CBN last August 15, but it seems like one of his wishes has already been granted by the network.

In an interview after the contract signing, the StarStruck alumnus told the entertainment press that now that he's already a Kapamilya, he hopes he gets to work with Kim Chiu and Coco Martin who are both noted for the successful primetime shows they had starred in, Paulo said he aims to learn a thing or two from the said Kapamilya talents.

Paulo Avelino

And then a while ago, pep.ph posted this in their scoopbox: "Ayon sa feed na natanggap ng PEP, mala-Wuthering Heights daw ang konsepto ng unang teleserye na gagawin ni Paulo Avelino sa ABS-CBN. Balita ring makakasama ng StarStruck alumnus sa proyektong ito sina Coco Martin at Julia Montes."

Now, that's one wish less from the list!

Wuthering Heights is a romantic drama written by Emily Brontë. A Tagalog movie adaptation of the novel had been released in 1991 titled Hihintayin Kita sa Langit. It was directed by Carlos Siguion-Reyna and starred the love team of Dawn Zulueta and Richard Gomez. It was a big hit and was critically-acclaimed in its time.

Could Paulo's first teleserye be a TV adaptation of Hihintayin Kita sa Langit? Or if not, I'm sure it would be something of that kind since it was described as mala-Wuthering Heights.

Meanwhile, fans of Paulo Avelino have showed their support of the actor thru Twitter and Facebook by saying they would love the 23-year-old actor regardless of the network he chooses.

Paulo's last project in GMA-7 was Alakdana, where he played opposite Louise delos Reyes. The Kapuso network offered him another soap to convince him to stay but Paulo declined, obviously. The offer was a drama titled Magkaagaw with Michelle Madrigal and Carla Abellana.
