Dingdong Dantes belied rumors that he is negotiating for a possible transfer to another network after his contract with GMA-7 expires.

Although Dingdong did not expound on the terms of his existing contract with the kapuso network and the duration of its validity, he gave the assurance that his contract with GMA-7 is still very much active and that he is still very much a kapuso.

It is not the first time that rumors have circulated in the past about the actor possibly moving to another network. The speculations even gained more ground this time when the actor recently appeared in a movie produced by the other network. But Dingdong himself says that he is still happy being a kapuso. He also said that he, personally, is not negotiating with the other network.

Meanwhile, Dindong spends most of his time taping for “Pahiram ng Sandali,” which is nearing the end of its very successful run.

MTRCB put Party Pilipinas on 6-month Probation

The Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB) ordered a six-month probation on Party Pilipinas over a “sexually-charged” dance number of Lovi Poe and Rocco Nacino during its January 27 episode.

The MTRCB also ordered the management and staff of the Kapuso weekly musical variety show to issue a public apology and to undergo “gender sensitivity training.”



Here are the latest tweets of the Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (@MTRCBgov):

MTRCB @MTRCBgov

MTRCB places Party Pilipinas on PROBATION, subject to per episode review, for SIX (6) MONTHS

MTRCB @MTRCBgov

MTRCB orders responsible officers, director, producer of Party Pilipinas to undergo gender sensitivity training.

5:13 PM - 07 Feb 13

The dance number that prompted some televiewers to file complains to MTRCB was the part when Lovi and Rocco performed a very “sexy” routine on a propped-up bed.

It’s interesting to note that Lovi is the half-sister of former MTRCB Chairman Grace Poe-Llamanzares, who is running for senator in this year’s local elections.
