The composition of the items in the Ken Chan X Peculiar Collection were personally handpicked by Ken and the Peculiar Eyewear creative team with his personal style as inspiration.  These collection includes computer/gadget protection eyewear and polarized sunglasses.

The collection is itemized by the following:

The "Basic", which has a cool minimalistic vibe, is the most functional piece as it can be used for any occasion. This is Peculiar Eyewear's bestseller in Lazada.

the "Aviator" has two lenses. One is polarized so it's perfect for the typical gym buff you or for anyone to wear on a sunny morning to prevent glares from the sun.

Next is the "Flex," a frame that can be bent 180 degrees. It's made with Titanium Alloy, which makes it more durable and lighter than most spectacles.
"Luxe" is the perfect over-the-top eyewear. It has an extravagant oversized computer lens, with a multi-color dip line at the back frame for an added classy feature.

Christmas Celebration is truly magical for everyone especially here in the Philippines. I am so glad that my parents are still here with us to celebrate this yuletide season. My father has been under Peritonial Dialysis for almost 3 years, I'm very thankful for the gift of life from God. Truly every Christmas celebration for us is magical because we are complete.
Something magical will continuously unfold on television as GMA Network launches its 2016 Christmas campaign dubbed "Maniwala Sa Magic Ng Pasko," the first locally-produced 3D animated Christmas campaign. It was launched last November 7, in 24 Oras.

"During such a busy time of the year, we hope that, by spreading the message of hope, every Kapuso will get to experience the joy and limitless possibilities that come with believing in the magic of the Season," says GMA Chairman and CEO Atty. Felipe Gozon.

The story. Magic Crayons, is the first in this three-part series and highlights the magical feeling of having one's wish granted for Christmas in the eyes of a child.

"It is felt that the use of animated images best complements the essence of our Holiday message this year - to believe in the magic of Christmas. Through this, it is hoped that even our youngest Kapusos will enjoy our campaign and embrace the meaning of our Christmas message this season," GMA President and COO Mr. Gilberto Duavit Jr. shares.

The Maniwala Sa Magic Ng Pasko Christmas campaign comes at the heels of GMA's animated anthology series Alamat's win of the country's first "Best of Festival" Award at the US International Film and Video Festival (USIFVF), a recognition given to an outstanding entry among Gold Camera awardees in the USIFVF.

GMA Network already did something Magical this coming Christmas with their campaign. It will touch your heart and give you hope and inspiration that no matter how hard life is and with so many struggles coming our way, we should never lose faith and continue believing and this should start as a child, the kids around us should never falter in wishing for the best even if it's not Christmas. Through the eyes of a child, every thing is possible.
GMA's Christmas stories are the brainchild of GMA's Program Support Department headed by Regie Bautista (First Vice President), Dino Garcia (Assistant Vice President), Hasmin Marable (Assistant Vice President), BJ Camaya (Associate Creative Director), Catherine Ko (Project Manager), Nicolle Castillo (Writer), and Juan Javier, Reybert Ramos, Laqy Laqueo (Artists); and brought to life by GMA's Post Production Department composed of Edward Achacoso (First Vice President), Paul Ticzon (Vice President and Head of Operations), and April Canasa-Angeles (Senior Manager, Video Graphics Section).

Teleserye has been part of a typical contemporary Pinoy daily lives, though there are so many teleseryes to watch we see to it that the story give moral lesson and of course a good and convincing act is a must. Actors need to convince us all that we believe in their character that's why viewers like me are now very much choosy. We don't want to feel the usual series that we watch that we get bored of it and we already know what will happen next, that's why GMA Network offers a unique and some new artist in the industry like in one of their teleserye the Destiny Rose which is aired via GMA Afternoon Prime starring on his debut role Ken Chan.
Of course GMA got the best artist that fits on their teleserye like Miggs Cuaderno, who portray the role of Joey (Destiny Rose) as a kid. Miggs Cuaderno has been nominated and won several outstanding awards. He recently won Best Child Performer in the 17th Gawad Pasado Award, 31st PMPC Star Awards for Movies and the 63rd Famas Awards for the highly acclaimed film Asintado. His most precious award is a Best Actor Award from Cheries Cheris International Film Festival in France. Imagine those awards and it turn out that Miggs is just 11 years old.
Miggs shared that portraying roles is a big pressure to him because most of the people who know him well will expect more from him since he has won several awards. He is doing his very best to portray such role like in Destiny Rose.

According to Miggs his first portrayal gave him a hard time, acting as a gay, but through workshop and his diligence in giving his best, he knew that he gave justice on the role that has given to him. In order for him to master his portrayal, he gets his peg from the gorgeous Solenn Heusaff. This is to make his actions and voice soft. It is very challenging for him to portray a gay role.
Ken Chan also faces a big challenge because he needs to do his best to match up with Miggs in acting as a gay in Destiny Rose, since Miggs is very good in acting as a kid role in Destiny Rose. According to Ken Chan, he underwent an audition just to get the lead role part in Destiny Rose and he is very thankful especially with the help of GMA Network and GMA Artist for all the support. He shared as well that he has a dream board that he looks at every morning to give him a boost to reach it, I can relate to this because my hubby has it as well, actually at our ceiling, so everytime we lie down or as we open our eyes we look at it, and it is effective because most of what is in his dream board were achieved already. Nice move Ken!
Ken Chan's peg is Marian Rivera and Jennylyn Mercado plus a workshop that helps him to portray his gay role, actually it is not the typical gay role, it's a transgender role.
Destiny Rose is also garnering high ratings from the moment it started and Ken Chan feels overwhelmed and thankful to all the viewers who supports Destiny Rose. All the hard work truly paid off because viewers appreciated their efforts and he promised that he will continue to do his best for the show.

Here are some videos during the interview:










Destiny Rose cast includes Manilyn Reynes, Michael De Mesa, Jackielou Blanco, Katrina Halili, Sheena Halili, Joko Diaz, Irma Adlawan and JC Tiuseco. The series is being directed by Don Michael Perez (Strawberry Lane, Innamorata).

After years as a young, accomplished actress, 16-year-old Bea Binene put out her long anticipated sophomore album titled “Dito Sa Puso Ko” released by PolyEast Records. On November 9, she will launch the album at the Harrison Plaza event center showcasing her ten new singles to entertain her legions of loyal fans.



The teen sensation is back to deliver the same high-energy performance to follow up the explosive success of the debut album “Hey It’s Me, Bea!”. Bea’s career in the pop world is in full swing as she returns with her teen pop tunes and a stage presence that commands full attention. “I really enjoyed doing the album…it’s like playing but creating something that I am really proud of at the same time” says Bea.



After dropping her successful debut CD, "Hey It’s Me, Bea!" the young singer/actress did not waste any time immediately heading back into the studio to record tunes for her sophomore album despite her busy schedule. “Hey It’s Me, Bea” was released last year and reached its Platinum record status-- an impressive feat for a 16-year-old juggling a successful career and home school at the same time. Being one of the most purely enjoyable albums since its debut, PolyEast Records also released “Hey It's Me, Bea! Limited Christmas Edition” and included Bea’s most favorite Christmas dance songs.



“My new album has more songs to offer to my fans and this time, we invited Ken Chan as my guest in the album. The songs were chosen by my label except for few songs I chose myself, “Bea adds. As the album title suggests, Bea speaks of teenage love and having fun. The album’s kick-off single is “Dito Sa Puso Ko” which was originally interpreted and composed by Ogie Alcasid – its old-school, yet fresh bubbly pop sound is now taking over the radio waves. With her sweet personality and knack for teen-targeting pop anthem, the album features ten tracks that include a team-up with a new teen-sensation Ken Chan with remakes that will surely bring you memories of 90s bubblegum pop. Ken Chan is a GMA artist and a host of the late night show, Walang Tulugan with the Master Showman. He already appeared in several shows of GMA Network in Tween Hearts and Time Of My Life.



Bea and her PolyEast Records producers freshen the 90’s sound with seven remakes inspired by the Sharon Cuneta’s “Highschool Life”; the carrier single and Ogie Alcasid’s “Dito Sa Puso Ko”; and DJ Alvaro’s “Ang Tipo Kong Lalaki” to name a few. Ken even gets into the retro-goes-pop doing a remake of “Nais Kong Malaman Mo” and “Sumayaw, Sumunod” which were originally by 70s band The Boyfriends. Unlike the previous album, “Hey It’s Me Bea” which she was joined by teen heartthrob Jake Vargas in a duet, the new album boasts a duet of Bea and Ken in an Ogie Alcasid hit in the 90s “Bakit Ngayon Ka Lang”, the reminiscent Lea Salonga hit “Bakit Labis Kitang Mahal” and the danceable “Whoops Kirri” only proves that the album has plenty to offer, evidenced by this enjoyable pop tracks with the sparkling jam between the two young artists.



“Asa Ka Pa” is the only original track in the album which Bea says, “I like the song because the experience of singing it is new to, because first, it’s a new compostion. The lyrics speak more than a love song or being young itself.”



Though she may seem like just another actress turned singer, Bea offers something more than what everyone expected. Bea, 16, is definitely a multifaceted artist behind young actress sheen and proudly gives a new flavor with the album “Dito Sa Puso Ko”-- from soft, slow ballads to upbeat-pop songs you’ll find yourself singing along to. Bea also adds, “In the album, we included few pictures of me and Ken for the buyers to enjoy our first team-up. And apart from that, they will also have a glimpse of how fun it is being young and singing what you feel sometimes.”



“Music has always been a part of me, and having a career in music has always been in my bucket list since I was still a kid. Now, I started learning how to play the guitars and I think I found a new love for it. Been playing the guitars with songs from the new album and I’m having fun”, Bea added.

Recently, Bea is currently on GMA’s comedy sitcom “Vampire Ang Daddy Ko” with Vic Sotto and is also a regular host every Sunday in Good News Kasama si Vicky Morales on GMA News TV. “Dito Sa Puso Ko” is also available for downloads on mymusicstore.com.ph and iTunes wordwide.
