Gerald Anderson at Cosmo Bachelor Bash

. Being the cover boy of the Cosmo Centerfolds this year, understandable kung bakit naging kaabang-abang ang pagrampa ng Kapamilya star na si Gerald Anderson sa ginanap na Cosmo Bachelor Bash 2009 kabagi, September 10, sa NBC Tent, The Fort, Taguig City.

Si Gerald din ang nakakuha ng pinakamalakas na hiyawan mula sa mga tao sa loob ng NBC Tent, kung saan kasama niyang rumampa ang iba pang Cosmo Centerforlds this year na sina Aljur Abrenica, Ejay Falcon, Akihiro Sato, JC Tiuseco, Phil Younghusband, Xian Lim, at Daniel Matsunaga. Hindi naman nakarating sina Sid Lucero at Joem Bascon.

Pero halatang nahiya si Gerald nang sabihan na siya ang "pinakabida" among the bachelors na rumampa dahil siya nga ang huling tinawag.

"Hindi naman, hindi naman... Masaya lang. Sobrang nag-enjoy ang mga tao kaya nag-enjoy din kami," sabi ni Gerald nang makausap ng PEP (Philippine Entertainment Portal) sa backstage ng NBC Tent.

Does he feel above the rest sa nangyaring show?

"Ah, hindi naman. Noong lumabas kami, pantay-pantay kaming lahat," sagot niya.

TOPLESS GERALD. Ano ang naramdaman niya na walang tigil ang tilian ng audience—na karamihan ay mga babae at bading—habang rumarampa siya?

"Nakakahiya nga!" bulalas ng young actor. "Parang ayaw ko ngang lumabas kanina. Pero masaya. Sobrang nakakatuwa talaga. Pero siyempre, kinilig din ako kahit paano. Ito ang first time na mag-topless ako talaga."

Two months din daw ang naging preparation ni Gerald for the event.

Ano ang exact feeling niya noong finally ay umakyat na siya sa stage?

"Nahiya ako, first time ko kasi, tapos Cosmopolitan pa. Pero pag-akyat ko sa stage, sobrang overwhelmed ako nang makita ko ang mga tao. May mga water guns pa sila!" sagot ni Gerald, na ang tinutukoy ay ang water guns na gamit ng audience upang basain ang rumarampang models at artista na gusto nila.

Ano ang naging motivation niya para mapapayag siyang rumampa nang naka-topless sa harap ng maraming tao?

"Siyempre noong tinanong ako, of course, overwhelmed ako. Masaya ako, so ginawa ko. At saka ginawa ko ang lahat para maging maganda ang outcome."

Bago lumabas ng stage si Gerald ay ang Kapuso star na si Aljur Abrenica muna ang tinawag sa stage. Nag-usap ba sila ni Aljur sa backstage kahit na galing sila sa magkalabang networks?

"Aljur is a good guy," sabi ni Gerald. "Nakita ko siya sa backstage, so he's also deserving. Minsan magba-basketball kami kapag may free time."

KIM'S POSSIBLE REACTION. Kung si Aljur ay pinanood ng ka-loveteam niyang si Kris Bernal upang magbigay ng suporta, hindi naman nagpunta kagabi ang kapareha ni Gerald sa Tayong Dalawa na si Kim Chiu. Pero ayon kay Gerald, inimbitahan daw niya si Kim at naiintindihan daw niya kung hindi man ito nakarating.

"Of course, pero si Kim naman, hindi siya puwede sa mga ganito," sabi ni Gerald. "Hindi siya mahilig sa mga ganito, and may trabaho rin siya ngayon. Pero si Kim naman, siya ang nagsasabi sa akin na, 'Mag-workout ka. Mag-workout ka!'"

Kung mapapanood ni Kim ang footage ng ginawa niyang pagrampa, ano kaya sa tingin niya ang magiging reaction nito?

"Ay, ewan ko!" natatawang sabi ng tanyag na ring young star ng ABS-CBN. "Sana naman maging proud siya."

Kung si Gerald man ay napapayag mag-pose sa Cosmopolitan, hindi daw niya papayagan si Kim mag-pose for a men's magazine.

"Ayaw ko siyempre, si Kim yun, e. At saka alam naman natin na napaka-wholesome ni Kim. Pero kung ano ang gusto niya, supportive ako," aniya.

TAYONG DALAWA. Dalawang linggo na lang ang nalalabi at matatapos na ang pinagsasamahan nilang primetime series ni Kim na Tayong Dalawa. Ano ang nararamdaman ni Gerald sa nalalapit na pagtatapos ng kanilang teleserye?

"Nakakalungkot, pero at the same time, siyempre ang Tayong Dalawa naging consistent naman sa rating. So, masaya naman ako. Kahit papaano naman, kahit patapos na kami, masaya naman ako," saad ni Gerald.

Hindi ba sila nailang ni Kim nang gawin nila ang honeymoon scene nila sa serye?

"A, ginawa namin sa Boracay yun, e. Wala... Alam mo yung kapag nasa Boracay ka, yung atmosphere, talagang tumutulong sa amin. Siyempre, four years na kaming magkasama ni Kim. Pero hindi naman namin pinag-usapan, so we're really comfortable with each other."

Saan patungo ang loveteam nila ni Kim ngayong matatapos na ang Tayong Dalawa? May follow-up project na ba sila together o papaghiwalayin muna sila?

"Naku, hindi ko alam," sagot ni Gerald. "Sana mas maraming project to come. Sana mas marami pang matured roles."

Kung paghihiwalayin sila, okey na ba sa kanila?

"Kung yun po ang desisyon ng management. Siyempre, kahit maghiwalay man kami, alam namin sa isa't isa na magkakaroon din kami ng project in the future," sagot ni Gerald.


Celebrity Centerfolds at 2009 Cosmo Bachelor Bash

. Whistles were handed out to guests who entered the NBC Tent last night, September 10, during the 2009 Cosmo Bachelor Bash. In line with its theme "Cosmo Cell Block 69," spectators were supposed to help capture the "bad boys" by blowing on their whistles when they see them coming. Special guests were given water guns so they could spray their favorite hunks.

All was set for the eagerly awaited annual Cosmopolitan Magazine (Philippines) event where young, good-looking, muscled, and expectedly virile men appear before a crowd of well-dressed but screaming women and men. (Cosmopolitan Magazine is published by Summit Media Inc.)

However, when the 69 Bachelors and Celebrity Centerfolds appeared in their underwear—their half-naked bodies in full display—the audience ended up simply ogling the muscular men and their photo shoots and videos.

Fun, fearless females had the chance to see men acting out life behind prison bars—the fights, the power struggles, and more.

Around 8:30 p.m., host Joey Mead started the show by conducting naughty games sponsored by various companies. By 9 p.m., she was interrupted by a loud alarm, signaling the arrival of the "bad boys." Handcuffed guys entered the ramp, eliciting cheers from the well-heeled crowd.

"Jail warden" Joey Mead ordered the men to hit the showers and some of them did—practically naked! Some hunks had their back to the audience as they "showered" onstage. Women and gays shrieked when the buff men turned around, each holding a white towel over his private parts.

But the highlight of the evening was still to come. This came with the introduction of the "Most Wanted Criminals," a.k.a. this year's Celebrity Centerfolds.

A short video showed excerpts of the pictorials of the 10 gorgeous hunks handpicked by the Cosmo team. The top ten hunks were charged with various offenses that all had corresponding "punishments."

Case File No. 10 was The Notorious Runway Teaser; No. 9, The Bedside Bandit; No. 8, The Love Drug Dealer; No. 7, The Duke of Delirium; No. 6, The Sensual Cassanova; No. 5, The Sexy Offender; No. 4, The Lone Survivor Pirate; No. 3, The Cyber Peeping Tom; No. 2, The Thief of Hearts; and No. 1, The Mastermind of Desire.

Kapamilya star Gerald Anderson was the last to walk the ramp and he certainly got a lot of cheers and applause from the audience. Wearing a striped prison jumpsuit like the other Celebrity Centerfolds, he pulled this down to reveal his well-developed upper body. The matinee idol then walked quickly from centerstage to the end of the ramp.

"Binilisan ko talaga ang paglakad, nakakahiya, e," he told the press backstage right after the Cosmo Bachelor Bash. He had been preparing for this event for the past two months. He revealed that onscreen partner Kim Chiu wasn't able to attend that night because she had work.

For his jail sentence, Kapuso hunk Aljur Abrenica was ordered to dance, dance, dance! He smiled broadly when he saw loveteam partner Kris Bernal seated in the crowd, taking videos of him and spraying him with water. The young star almost stole the show when he took a mineral-water bottle and drenched his whole body with its contents.

Two Brazilian-Japanese models made it to the ramp this year: Akihiro Sato and Daniel Matsunaga. This marks the second time that Akihiro has been chosen as a Celebrity Centerfold, which was why he was very comfortable onstage. He will be in the latest edition of GMA-7's Celebrity Duets, so women going crazy over him will still get their fill of the fellow.

Soccer player turned reality-show contestant Phil Younghusband walked the ramp confidently with his handcuffed hands placed above his head. He maintained his air of mystery until he took off his mask as he reached the end of the ramp.

First Pinoy Sole Survivor JC Tiuseco teased the crowd when he stopped in the middle of the ramp and put his hands on the zipper of his pants. And then he smiled and wagged his finger as if saying that part was off-limits!

Katorse stars Ejay Falcon and Xian Lim also showed off their well-toned bodies during this event, which ended at around 10:30 p.m. Unfortunately, Sid Lucero and Joem Bascon, two more Cosmo hunks, were unable attend because of work.

Celebrities who watched this year's edition of the Cosmo Bachelor Bash were Carla Abellana, Kris Bernal, Maxene and her sister Saab Magalona—all of whom were first timers to the event.

PEP (Philippine Entertainment Portal) also spotted IC Mendoza, Ana Capri, and talent manager Maryo J. de los Reyes. Direk Maryo directed Aljur Abrenica and Kris Bernal in their upcoming film Nandito Ako...Nagmamahal Sa 'Yo.

Among the 69 Bachelors who walked the ramp were Mark Bautista, Carlo Guevarra of Be Bench fame, Eri Neeman, as well as Pinoy Fear Factor participantes Manuel Chua and Jose Sarasola.

Mark exuded a lot of sex appeal when he walked the ramp. He even surprised people when he lowered his pants slightly, much to the delight of the crowd.

As the show ended, confetti rained down on the "bad boys" who were now all free to unleash their naughty side!

The September 2009 issue of Cosmopolitan is now available with Carla Abellana on the cover. It comes with the Cosmo Men supplement containing photos of the 69 Bachelors and the 10 Celebrity Centerfolds.
