		<title>Who is your Darna: Marian Rivera or Angel Locsin?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Marian Rivera will try to outshine Angel Locsin once again as she is crowned as television&#8217;s new Darna.
Rivera&#8217;s forthcoming role was officially announced by GMA-7 on April 23rd at the GMA Network Center. She was the lead star in Marimar and Dyesebel. Both stories were supposed to be for Angel Locsin, but she moved over to ABS-CBN 2.
Darna and Dyesebel are originally made for komiks by Mars Ravelo, but eventually became hit movies. Previously, only Vilma Santos was able to play both Darna and Dyesebel (in separate shows, naturally).

		<title>Gary Granada: GMA Kapuso Foundation took advantage of my work</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Remember Pinoy Ako, the first theme song of Pinoy Big Brother? It sounded very much like &#8220;Chandeliers&#8221; of The Care (UK).
Now Gary Granada is saying that GMA Kapuso Foundation took advantage of a study tape he submitted and when compared with the jingled that came out on TV before Christmas 2008, it&#8217;s like Pinoy Ako all over again.
Granada is a talent of GMA Records, the music label of GMA Network.
