  American RnB superstar Justin Timberlake will rock for a cause when he guests on Grammy-winning record producer, singer and rapper Timbaland’s Shock Value Tour II concert on March 27.

  Lives will definitely change when Timberlake, Timberland and Jojo perform at the SM Mall of Asia concert ground because the proceeds of the concert will be donated to the PLDT Smart Foundation Inc. (PSF).

  The PSF is the social outreach arm of the country’s oldest and largest telecommunications conglomerate, the Philippine Long Distance Telephone Co., and its wireless subsidiary, Smart Communications Inc.

  «I know Justin [Timberlake] will donate a portion of it so I’m confident that we’ll get something although it may not be a huge amount,» said PSF President Butch Meily during a roundtable with editors and reporters of The Manila Times on Monday.

  The concert will benefit the music department of a public school in Angono, Rizal, and about 100 orphans who lost their families when Typhoon Ondoy ravaged the country’s Metro Manila region, causing the worst flooding in more than four decades.

  «There are also suggestions to include the children of heroes who died saving other families. We think that should count as well,» Meily said.

  The PSF has worked in partnership with nongovernment organizations, schools and other groups in a number of diverse causes—education, microfinance, sports, juvenile rehabilitation, disaster response, the environment, poverty alleviation and the arts.

  It has supported Cinemabuhay, an effort to discover future filmmakers and give them the opportunity to display their talents. The foundation recently awarded a P1-million grant to Slow Fade, a digital movie directed by Rommel Sales starring Diether Ocampo and Lara Quigaman.

  The PSF is focusing on one or two priority projects every year. In 2009, it bankrolled the construction of a four-story school at the heart of Smokey Mountain in Tondo, and Bahay Pagasa, a P15-million juvenile rehabilitation facility in Dasmarinas, Cavite.

  Meily was also named the executive director of the Philippine Disaster Recovery Foundation (PDRF), which was formed to aid the government in the rehabilitation of damaged areas after typhoons Ondoy and Pepeng battered the country last year.

  The PDRF said that Dutch expert Tjitte Nauta, who has conducted a study on the Laguna Lake, will hold a workshop on Thursday on how to solve the country’s flooding problem.

  Before the end of the month, it is expected to come up with its assessment report of the damage caused by the disastrous typhoons, which will determine the cost of rehabilitation.

  «We’ll have to fix the damage before the rain comes again,» Meily said.

  The PDRF has received overwhelming support for the rehabilitation project from all walks of life. Meily said the foundation even received a check donation worth P6,549 from students of The Learning Tree school in Metro Manila.

  «This [check] was given to us by 10 to 11-year-old students. The outpouring of support for this project was overwhelming,» he added.

  Justin Timberlake leads guests in TV5’s relaunch

  http://www.manilastandardtoday.com/insi … 0/march/25

  INTERNATIONAL pop star Justin Timberlake, former lead singer of N’Sync, will be the special guest at the launch tonight of TV5, which is now under PLDT’s top honcho Manuel V. Pangilinan’s control.

  Timberlake, a Grammy-winning recording artist, will perform along with Jojo and Timbaland at the SM Mall of Asia Concert Grounds on March 27. PLDT and Smart Bro are the show’s main presenters, and its proceeds will go to the PLDT/SMART Foundation.

  The appearance of Timberlake at TV5’s launch tonight at the World Center is a sign that Pangilinan is serious in his bid to make TV5 a premier brand in the local free (to air) TV industry, after having acquired it from Antonio Cojuangco last year.

  The fledgling network has started to beef up its programming with new shows, which are mostly top-billed by stars from either ABS-CBN or GMA Network. These stars are expected to be part of a program to introduce the network to advertisers, the media (print in particular), and the public.

  Maricel Soriano, who headlines a Monday night prime-time show, will be joined by other stars that recently signed with the network, and they include Dolphy, Ruffa Gutierrez, JC de Vera, Amy Perez, Pauleen Luna and Paolo Bediones.

  TV5 has been raiding both ABS-CBN and GMA Network for possible talents, and at the same time luring managers of stars with offers that they can hardly refuse.

  Many have decided to stay while some have signed. The rest have agreed to do projects on a case-by-case basis, since they want to stay free to do shows at either the Kapamilya or Kapuso networks.

  Meanwhile, Pangilinan has ordered his foot soldiers to gradually transfer operations closer to Manila from Novaliches. MVP, as he is known among his employees, is said to be planning to build a new facility at The Fort in Taguig City to consolidate TV5’s operations.

  The news and public affairs group has been moved to an unoccupied building owned by PLDT in Mandaluyong that has been transformed into a newsroom and news studio temporarily. The entertainment group has been shooting on location to avoid having its stars travel to Novaliches each taping day.

  The launch tonight could mean that TV5 under Pangilinan is now ready for a three-cornered fight in the ratings race, which is dominated by ABS-CBN nationwide and ruled by the Kapuso network in Manila and the rest of Luzon.

  Except for Talentadong Pinoy and Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?, the rest of the shows on TV5 are all in the bottom rung of the top-shows list. But to make the channel more accessible to audiences that have vowed loyalty to either Kapamilya or Kapuso, TV5 is using «Kaibigan» as a tag line.

  Pangilinan’s dream of owning a media entity, broadcast particularly, has finally been realized. He had been trying to get into broadcasting mode many years back, when he had tried to buy shares of ABS-CBN and sent feelers to GMA Network. Unfortunately, both networks did not see any need to invite a new investor.

  Hardly discouraged, Pangilinan continued to wait for an opportunity to be in the broadcast and film business. In fact, PLDT/SMART Foundation has been financing up-and-coming directors’ projects in digital format.

  With the launch of TV5, Pangilinan could announce his formal entry into film-making. There have been talks about the network going full blast this year with an output double that of ABS-CBN’s Star Cinema and GMA Films.

  Timberlake is just the start of this newfangled energy that Pangilinan has brought into TV5.Timberlake could be singing his new single I Want You, and that’s exactly what Pangilinan wants for TV5.

  Justin arrives today for gig

  http://showbizandstyle.inquirer.net/ent … ay-for-gig

  MANILA, Philippines—As early as November last year there was talk that local concert promoters were bringing in pop superstar Justin Timberlake. But it remained just a rumor, until Francis Lumen’s All Youth Channels (former franchisee of MTV Philippines) announced a show that will feature not just Timberlake, but also Timbaland and Jojo on March 27 at the SM Mall of Asia grounds.

  It’s actually Timbaland, the rapper and sought-after record producer, who’s headlining the show. But even as Timberlake and Jojo (a teenage singer whom Timbaland has recruited in his latest album) are billed as guests, Lumen says they will play a major part in the show.

  Fundraiser

  In fact, the gig, dubbed «Changing Lives,» is a special one-off event, a fundraiser for the PLDT-Smart Foundation which is channeling the gig’s proceeds to help young victims of the Ondoy-Pepeng storms, including students of the Angono School of the Arts whose musical instruments were damaged by the floods.

  Timberlake, who’s flying in from Los Angeles today with girlfriend Jessica Biel, will be meeting the Angono music students after his arrival.

  But apart from its being a benefit concert, what makes this gig worth checking out?

  It’ll be interesting to hear how Timbaland would bring his studio production techniques in a live setting, without making it sound like the usual hip hop/R&B show.

  Jojo is very familiar to the high school crowd, a stunning beauty with matching good singing voice.

  Timberlake has certainly gone a long way from his ‘N Sync days. His collaborations with Timbaland would be the show’s highlight.
