Piolo Pascual and his Cannes Acting Skills

It wasn’t publicly stated that Piolo Pascual is nominated as Best Actor in the recently concluded Cannes Film Festival. He flew there for Manila as its producer, not as its lead actor. It was a surprise that he was actually nominated for best actor in the event.

That alone is an achievement to take home. Even though a US critic has said that his acting was bland for the film, he was also described as “hunky at best”. Piolo might not be able to win the highest regard for an actor in the said festival. But being there, representing the country is a good achievement. What’s great is that they went home with the Best Director trophy, courtesy of Brillante Mendoza’s Kinatay.

Now that Cannes is over, Manila should hit the local cinemas very soon. Manila will be locally distributed by Star Cinema.

Piolo Pascual Nominated as Best Actor in Cannes

For his performance in Manila, the official entry to the 2009 Cannes Film Festival, Piolo Pascual was given the rare chance to be nominated for best actor. Unfortunately, he didn't win the award. It was given to Austrian Christoph Waltz who appeared in Inglorious Basterd of critically acclaimed director Quentin Tarantino

Piolo didn't win. But fellow Filipino Brillante Mendoza bagged the Best Director title in the prestigious festival. His entry is Kinatay, starring Coco Martin. Incidentally, an American critic said that his film is the worst entry to the Cannes thus far. Well, he can eat his words now. For he could be the worst movie critic in the world. Mendoza won best director. That's enough vindication for him.

Piolo Pascual on Love and Career

In a recent interview, Piolo Pascual revealed that it is his career that's his priority up to this very day. Now that Judy Ann and Ryan have married, people can't help but ask, when will this 32-year old hunk/heartthrob/matinee idol will ever tie the knot?

Piolo said he's still looking. And if he finds her, he don't want to choose between love and career. So right at this point, he's focusing all his effort on his career because when she does come, he would like to shower her with time and effort.

Piolo's busy schedule keeps him from moving around and meeting new girls. He said that if ever he's going to fall in love right now, it would be with a girl within his environment. And there are simply too many beautiful girls around him in showbiz right now. But if he were to choose, he'd rather date a beautiful non-showbiz girl.

Piolo Pascual Back in France

Piolo Pascual made his schedule clear for his reentry to France, not just as an actor but this time, but as a producer. And at a very prestigious event at that. It was previously reported that Piolo's co-produced film, Manila, had made it to the Cannes Film Festival. As a proud man behind and in front of the camera, he gladly represented his movie in the Festival.

Cannes Film Festival is a widely-acclaimed international film festival in the world. With only a handful of films nominated in different categories, it is but an honor for our country to have at least 4 films and recognitions in the event.

Piolo will be back to the country again for his local engagements and of course, for the taping of Lovers in Paris with KC Concepcion.

Judy Ann Confirmed: I Invited Piolo to My Wedding

Speculations can now be finally laid to rest as to whether or not Piolo was just invited to the delayed reception in Makati and not in the exclusive by-invitation-only Judy Ann-Ryan wedding in Batangas.

Coming from the mouth of the actress, Judy Ann said that Piolo was welcome both at the wedding and at the Makati reception. However, Piolo never really came on the two occasions.

Piolo said he had work the day of the wedding. And on the Makati reception, he has to enjoy the waters with his family. Piolo didn't intentionally snob the event because he said that it was okay between all of them. And he sent his greeting wishing them well.

Attending or not, there's still controversy. Good decision not to attend? Or not?

Piolo Pascual a No-Show on Judy Ann's Makati Reception

It has been the talk of the town whether or not Piolo Pascual is going to be invited to Judy Ann's wedding to Ryan Agoncillo. If not at the actual ceremony, at least at the Manila reception which was held at Le Souffle Rockwell.

It can be remembered the Judy Ann's manager Alfie Lorenzo only has bad mouth for Piolo. As for Judy Ann's now husband Ryan Agoncillo, they've got some rift a few years ago. So the big question was, will Piolo Pascual ever be invited?

As a matter of fact, he is. For Judy Ann, Ryan, and Piolo, everything's already okay between all of them. Alfie may still think otherwise but he's relatively harmless - at least not when he's writing his columns.

Anyway, despite the exclusive invitation, Piolo was a no-show at the Makati reception. He was better off surfing with a sibling. Not that he snubbed the event. He said that he's just trying giving the couple the time together that they deserve. Like Piolo, Judy Ann's former leading man Derek Ramsay is also nowhere to be found.

Lovers in Paris Targets June as Airing Date

Piolo Pascual said that he and KC Concepcion are continually working on the Lovers In Paris set to get the show all canned up. The target airing date would be in June and if everything works out good, the series should hit the boob tube by then.

Piolo said that they're taping every other day right now. However, he and KC still have international obligations to fulfill so it's going to be a tough schedule for both of them in the coming days. KC will go with her mom Sharon Cuneta for her US tour and him back to France for the Cannes Film Festival. The festival runs from May 13 to 24 of this year.

Piolo Plans to Go Back to France for the Cannes Film Festival

Piolo Pascual may just head back to France without KC Concepcion. Nor will it be for Lovers in Paris. Piolo's first try in producing indie films brought him too much recognition even he can't believe it. Manila, which is a twin bill focusing on Ismael Bernal and Lino Broka's past films, had made it through the Cannes Film Festival. It's an international recognition and Piolo can only be too proud.

Piolo would like to attend the festival's awards night this May. After which, Star Cinema would be locally distributing the film. Piolo Pascual fans should not miss him in this rare acting piece. He plays a low-life scum in both stories, something we don't see him doing much.

Piolo Pascual on Ryan and Juday's Wedding

Piolo Pascual have been Judy Ann Santos' leading man for the longest time. They used to be close until things got sour with Piolo and Judy Ann's manager and then Judy Ann's then-boyfriend Ryan Agoncillo.

With all the rift and troubles, things got okay between all of them in the past few years. The question right now was so big. Is Piolo Pascual invited to Judy Ann's wedding?

Piolo said that he is. However, he also said that he had work that day so he didn't come. Besides, it was the couple's big day and he wanted to contribute to the privacy of the event by not coming to the wedding altogether.

Even so, Piolo is very ecstatic about them, saying that he's happy for Judy Ann that finally, she's going to build a family. He also wishes that they have many cute little babies together.
