Mo Twister Uploads Controversial Picture on Instagram
He did it again!
It seems like Mo Twister is always hungry for attention!
"Like" hungry Mo Twister posted a photo of a topless woman ready to strip it off on his Instagram account.
The woman has her back on the camera. She's only wearing a thin, flesh colored panties labeled with "like this" with the famous Facebook thumbs up emoticon. The TV host/radio jock said the woman was aware that the camera was on.
Mo Twister: Do the amount of "Likes" you get on your Instagram pics mean
a lot to you? I have to admit, it's pretty important to me. I feel
accomplished and popular when I get a lot of "Likes"...so, here, she's
wearing a "Like this" underwear for you to "Like" and yes, she knew the
camera was on! ;)

Flavors of Asia at Marriott Manila
A lot of people will agree that one of the best ways to experience Asia is
through its food—historic, flavorful, and vast. Especially for the
Southeast Asian region that boasts a multi-cultural and hard-hitting
influence with the way we enjoy cooking and eating, it’s no wonder why
dishes that hail from these regions are considered a feast for the
senses.
To pay tribute to this revered cuisine of the world; Marriott
Manila brings home four of the Asia ’s most famous cuisines. From
Thailand , Malaysia , Indonesia and Vietnam , Marriott Cafe tantalizes
everyone with a masterpiece through a month-long celebration of
Oriental flavors that’s uniquely Marriott.
What else could be more exciting other than a larger than life
encounter with Renaissance Kuala Lumpur’s Ruhizad Muri, JW Marriott
Jakarta’s Dadang Wahyudi, Renaissance Riverside Saigon Phan Tien Hoa,
and JW Marriott Bangkok Thanatorn Krobsuay. Boasting with culinary
career track that is dynamically diverse, expect only authentic and a
palate tickling adventure anyone could get.
For only P2, 300 net from Sunday to Thursday and P2, 500 net for
Friday and Saturday, enjoy a charming Asian dinner that assures an
enjoyable age-old tradition of bonding through a delicious mix of
aromatic, spicy, rich, sweet, and hot Flavors of Asia.
Back by popular demand, Thai food definitely deserves all the hype
for its four fundamental tastes that we Filipinos love: sweet, sour,
salty, and bitter. Chef Thanatorn Krobsuay who trail blazed the first
two consecutive most-talked about Thai Food Fest at Marriott Café,
there’s no denying that it’s one of the cuisines we regularly crave
for. This year, chef Thanathorn makes the selections more lavish and
worth discovering with his new menu line up such as: deep fried sea
bass with chili sauce, sautéed squid with pineapple and cucumber, beef
balls cooked with typical Malay sauce, and braised beef spiced with
turmeric and coconut.
More than its legendary nasi lemak, chef Ruhizad Muri gives
foodies a taste of Malaysia ’s noteworthy nyonya cuisine. A signature
Penang-type of cooking that blends spices from roots (galangal,
turmeric, and ginger); leaves (pandan, lime, and laksa); fruit (lemon,
tamarind, and green mangoes); together with other ingredients like
shrimp paste and chilies. Imbibed from Thai cooking style, chef
Ruhizad puts an interesting twist with the time-honored wok dishes of
Malaysia . This section invites everyone as well to get creative with
blue crab, shrimps,dilis fish, beef tenderloin, chicken, clams,
barbeque chicken, steamed fish, assorted vegetables peppered with
Malaysian spices.
Another Southeast Asian cuisine that deserves to be in the
limelight is Indonesian. Popular for their satay which shows Asians’
love affair for grilled meats, chef Dadang Wahyudi makes skewers
tastier and more appetizing with these selections: chicken, shrimps,
calamari, beef, goat, pork and fish in assorted marinations! Another
must-try is the bebek betutu klung klung, an all-spiced up Balinese
dish enhanced by a host of pungent roots, herbs, and seasoning. Both
locals and visitors are just so psyched about this heavenly roasted
duck recipe that it’s considered a dish specially reserved for big
banquets and ceremonies.
A native of Ho Chi Minh, chef Phan Thien Hoa presents well-rounded
Vietnamese dishes notable for its minimal use of oil, bountiful use of
herbs and vegetables-- which shouldn’t make one wonder why it ranks as
one of the healthiest foods in the world! Most travelers would agree
that a Vietnam trip is never complete without tasting a steamy and
flavorful bowl of pho. Considered the heart and soul of Vietnamese
cuisine, it features a delicious play on broth, rice noodles, meat,
herbs and spices. Another delicacy that Vietnam is famous for is the
Vietnamese spring rolls—soft rice wrappers filled with choicest meats
and vegetables such as shrimps, tofu, chicken, and beef. Enjoy it fresh
and slow at this special section which will make you feel the charming
street-food style eating in Vietnam .
And with the Philippines long coast line, it’s a crime to miss out
our very owns seafood choices. Your meal will never be complete
without the tiger prawns, steamed lobster on ice, marinated marina clam
and curacha crab which are all highly regarded for its freshness,
standout taste and quality. So make sure this cold section is part of
your eating plan.
While the West is abundant with milk for most of their dessert
recipes, Southeast Asians on the other hand capitalize on the creamy
goodness of coconut milk, whether it’s for glutinous rice or fruits. A
mix of sweet, savory, hot and cold, these should be a flavorful last
hurrah for a really good meal: pandan crepes rolled with caramelize
coconut, stewed green bean with palm sugar, banana in sweet coconut,
pandan leave jelly plus other famous delicacies that will surely strike
anyone’s fancy.
Much more, we believe that food and travel are a perfect way to go
if someone wants to have an in-depth experience of a local destination.
With this in mind, our Marriott properties in Thailand, Malaysia ,
Indonesia and Vietnam ,are giving away three days and two nights gift
certificates to four lucky diners of Flavors of Asia—all you need to
fully enjoy a one hundred percent Asian experience!
Bringing an authentic taste of local life and hospitality, our four
chefs will also conduct a special cooking class for only P1, 500 net
inclusive of a hearty lunch: July 9, Thai; July 16, Malaysian, July 23
Vietnamese; and July 30, Indonesian. If you wish to experience this
treat that’s injected with fun and information, consider enjoying Asian
cuisine by learning to cook it yourself!

However, to build up more interest in her new show, the messages that poked fun of CH were used as teaser ads for the show. After a number of postponements, the show finally aired. However, it did not generate as much interest as was expected. Some critics blamed the time slot. Others commented the show was a rehash and offered nothing new. Still, others said that CH lost her luster.
After a month of airing, the show has apparently not improved its ratings. Hence, management sent a memo instructing the production to plan the remaining episodes, including the finale. It turns out, the replacement show is already being planned. Now, people are awaiting for CH's reaction regarding this latest development.
