Spiking the summer heat away with the Creamline Cool Smashers in Volley Fiesta!

 Another Selfie with the legendary and super popular volleyball star, Alyssa Valdez... 
Summer sunshine shining down my hot pink hosting gig! All my favorite things in one event! Thank you once again to the best events and multimedia company in the Philippines, Global Visions (GVE) and of course, to Creamline Creamy Ice Cream for letting me host your Creamline Cool Smashers events! 

Aren't these Volley Belles so beautiful? They are the most popular, pretty ladies in the Philippines or even Southeast Asia when it comes to Volleyball! Led by Alyssa Valdez, of course! And since I hosted several events for them, here are more fun, pink photos, some with the GVE Team...  
More photos with the Creamline Cool smashes, including Melissa Gohing, made even more popular thanks to her beau, a well-followed Filipino actor, Rocco Nacino! 
 And more of the same photos but in different sunshine tones... so much fun!!! 
Lastly, here are my videos in action, in 4 parts. Don't forget to watch them before you go! Thanks for dropping by...

Fil-Am Singing Sensation, Mr. Rhythms, Steven Paysu croons and conquers in Las Vegas, Nevada!

Touring all around the Philippines and the USA, the one and only Mr. Rhythms, Steven Paysu finally finds his way in Sin City! 
You can say that I hit the "jackpot" yet again as I return for another gig in Jackpot Casino and Bar. Steven Paysu was the star of the show, but another Filipino-American star, Eumie Capile Roque was featured in his concert. 
 And below is Miss Melanie Paysu, the very lovely and loving wifey of Mr. Rhythms. He attributes his success to her unwavering support! 
As you may know, Steven Paysu won in 'Tawag ng Tanghalan' seen in a popular noontime show in the Philippines. 
Talented Filipino-American songstress Eumie Capile (now Eumie Roque after getting married) is now based in Chicago. What an honor to introduce them both and do what I love to do! 
 Catch my Big Mouth! You can tell that I just love owning the stage with my invisible crown and holding my scepter... the microphone! 
Here are a few videos of me hosting during the evening...   
Lastly, I had my own little photo session before the show, with myself as my own photographer all thanks to my camera phone's timer feature! Can you tell that these were done in the restroom? Lol. Couldn't help myself, I felt rather good and pretty that evening...
Sorry not sorry for "feeling" myself that night! I felt great, music was awesome! 
These last two are my favorites. I do not feel old... I feel like Gold!

Hitting the Jackpot: Hosting for the Comedy Queens of Las Vegas, Nevada!

What is better than one awesome night of endless laughter! Two nights in a row with the finest comedy queens of Nevada! One of my most memorable gigs at Jackpot Bar Las Vegas featured two Filipino-American comedy acts, Rey Kilay and Vivorah Vivorah!
Let's meet the comedy queens of Las Vegas! Here is Vivorah Vivorah, all the way from the Bay... yes she drove to Vegas (about 8 hours away) from San Francisco Bay, California! 
And here's Rey Kilay who was one of the most famous comedians in the Philippines. I am so happy to be working with him now here in the USA... 
Kilay in Tagalog (Filipino) means "eyebrow." Don't our eyebrows look fab? Yup, both of us, eyebrows on fleek!
At the Encore evening. Here I was waiting for the show to begin!
Talk about 'hitting' the Jackpot for two nights in a row! Jackpot Bar and Grill also has a casino and event hall. Apart from the comedy queens I met other beautiful, talented queens too...
The night of regal hilarity was opened by shows from these two lovely women, the sexy lady in red is a Filipino-American fashion designer and business maven behind Be You Stars lounge wear, Jesica Dapat! The other one looking beautiful in black is local songstress, Sheela Kunishige... 
Jes has become a good friend. She recently ventured into making masks to help people out during these times, coping with the pandemic. And are her face masks so flirtatious and fabulous, I don't mind wearing 'em all day! 
Isn't she lovely? Jes and I prepping for her fashion show, which I also emceed, of course! Had fun describing her glorious runway creations!
One of the Be You Star models, Jennifer Renie Martin... 
Now posing with Chevy, Jes and Jennifer... Don't you just love the red and black color combination below? 
Before I end, here are a few clips of me doing my spiels that night... 
This video was during the first evening, thanking our sponsors... 
Here's a video of me doing my usual voice-over spiels. I love doing this! 
And one last video, of Day 2... thanks for visiting my blog today!

A Memorial Day Weekend to Remember: Driving through 5 States in 8 days!

Home for me will always mean Nevada. I love Las Vegas, and appreciate the rest of this great nation! Last Memorial Day weekend was truly one for the books; we drove through Utah, Idaho, Oregon, Washington and then though California before we went back home to Nevada!
First Stop. Beautiful, peaceful Utah! We went around its capital, Salt Lake City, enjoyed chewy salt water taffy and scootered around the Capitol building and that unforgettable library in downtown Utah, the biggest we've ever seen in our lives! 
Exploring downtown and uptown Utah in e-scooters. Here's the Capitol Building, in Capitol Hill that overlooks the beautiful downtown Utah... 
Every inch of Capitol Hill, Utah was an elegant architectural masterpiece! 
More of the Salt Lake in Salt Lake City, of course! 
Next Stop: Idaho. Potatoes, anyone? But no, Idaho is actually called the "Gem State" and not Potato State, okay? It was the 43rd State to be part of the USA, after being admitted in the union on July 3, 1890.
Godric and I at the Shoshone Falls Park. 
As for me, I was exhausted driving. Excuse the "I look super exhausted, don't I" photos below... 
SNAKE RIVER. This grand river snakes through 4 different US States: Wyoming, Washington, Oregon and in this case, we viewed its majesty from the State of Idaho. 
And for the very first time, we saw a marmot up close... only in Idaho! Near the Snake River.
Jumping for joy when we reached Washington State! Just imagine how long and far we've been driving!
Boeing, Boeing, Gone! We also visited the Boeing hub in Everett, Washington State. Took the chance to remind my son who already wants to be a police officer that it might be smarter to first be part of the Marine Corps and be a helicopter pilot! Giving him a glimpse of the bright future that awaits him in our travels! Of course, a photo with shy Godric...

Godric and I in Seattle, Washington; we couldn't get tickets to go inside the Space Needle as it was sold out and didn't buy it in advance, so posing outside would have to do for now...
Godric wasn't so happy because we couldn't get tickets to go inside. Playing and taking photos outside will have to do for now... 
So we just walked around Seattle, and this was near Pike Place, where ours and the world's favorite coffee shop, Starbucks was born! 
Before heading back home to Nevada, we drove through California and had breakfast, and then ended up in another city, called Biggs. How Bigg is California, really? We always get lost somewhere and end up discovering something spectacular!
