Jackie Rice Accident On Location


Jackie Rice met an accident, just slight, on the set of her next teledrama, Sisid.

In an award-winning scene, possibly, in Sisid, Jackie Rice hurt her foot when she kicked a chair instead of her co-star.

The trooper that she is, according to her press release, she proceeded to finish the day's taping, hurt foot and all.

If you find that little accident a bit ho-hum, then you're not alone. I read a much more interesting story about Jackie Rice and her little vacation in Boracay during Holy Week.

So Jackie Rice and her boyfriend went for a little R&R in Boracay. But our Ms Jackie Rice refused to go out and enjoy the sun and beach because she was afraid of getting mobbed by overzealous fans.

Holy delusional, batman!

When Jackie Rice was finally persuaded to go out, no fans of hers, not even one, was there to ask our Ms Jackie Rice for an autograph or picture-taking.

Well, the people who saw Jackie Rice in Boracay were probably thinking, "Who is this lady, a lady who can benefit from a little tan, with the shifty eyes?"

Some of us have encountered those types of semi-famous celebrities who are all alert-like, waiting to be mobbed at any moment.

More times than not, no one approaches them because either the celebrity is famous only in their minds or PEOPLE simply DON'T CARE ABOUT THEM. Truth!

I have this sort of built-in radar for recognizing celebrities, stars and starlets alike. I could probably even spot extras in a crowd if I see them often enough on TV.

I'm thinking of approaching Marian Rivera for a picture if I ever see her on person. Either I get a picture or an evil eye from Marian Rivera. Either way, I have a juicy story to blog about. So win-win!

Imagine This

Somewhere in Turkey, a groom accidentally killed three relatives at his wedding when he fired into the air with an assault rifle in celebration.

Eight other people were wounded at the incident at the village of Akcagoze in the South Eastern province of Gaziantep.

The groom lost control of an AK-47 rifle and accidentally raked the guests with bullets.

His father and two of his aunts died in hospital.

Suffice to say, the groom is not enjoying his honeymoon.

Turks are notorious for breaking out into gunshots to celebrate weddings and sports victories, a practice that has caused many deaths and which authorities have so far failed to curb.

I automatically think of Ylmaz Bektas when I hear "Turkey" mentioned. It's really a testament to how far I've come that I don't associate turkey with poultry anymore. :p

Anyway, imagine the Turkish wedding of Ylmaz Bektas and Ruffa Gutierrez. Ylmaz, so proud that he's snared the heart of a Ms World Second Princess and a toast of Brunei, suddenly fired shots into the air out of shear joy.

Imagine, Ylmaz suddenly losing control of the gun.

Imagine, Anabelle Rama as one of the guests closest to the action.

The outcome of that fantasy depends on whether you're a fan or just a jeluz h8tr.

Yup, I'm on that bus going to hell.
