MANILA, Philippines - Japanese porn star Maria Ozawa wants Filipinos as her screen (and bed) partners in her next movie.

"I bought Globe sim!....audition for the bukkake will be in January," she added.

MANILA, Philippines - Never take competition for granted. That was the lesson ABS-CBN Chairman and CEO Eugenio "Gabby" Lopez III learned the hard way when his company was overtaken by main rival GMA Network Inc., owned by Felipe "Henry" Gozon, years back.
