I most remember Chelli-chan as the nervous kid who had the misfortune of being the receiving end of my katarayan during a formal interview. FLORI: Are you nervous? CHELLI: Yes, Ma’am. FLORI: Well you should be! So Cherie Gil-Sharon Cuneta, isn’t it? Anyway, who would have known years later that that same trembling kid would become Chelli Mariano, J-event host extraordinaire! Don’t let that cute petite package fool...

Anyway, Hana Yori Dango or HYD ( personally, I call it HanaDan) is a...
It ain’t just a band scene anymore
I was pleasantly surprised when I found out that one of the performers at the J Crunch Ripiito last Saturday was in fact a solo J Pop act. The young and pretty Setsuna.
