Cosmo Bachelor Bash 2012: Cosmo Men Unite

First of all, I would like to send my love to Summit Media and my friend, Allan, for giving me VIP access to the event.

I’ve been watching Cosmo Bachelor Bash since 2007, and I never missed a single show since then. And last night was probably the biggest turnout of attendees. The VIP area was jam-packed and the regular area was extremely crowded. When we get there, all seats were already occupied so we had to find the best place to stand. We were really lucky because our spot was right beside the runway allowing us to see every bachelors up-close.

Since I am also an Event Director, I can’t help but comment on some things. First, I love the multi-level stage that was utilized all throughout the event. I also love the runway and its side extensions. Some segments were great, while some needs more rehearsal time and proper execution. Lighting was good too!

I would like to share some of the  photos (taken by me) from the event.

I once told my friends that Paulo will be this year’s Top Cosmo Bachelors and my prediction was right.
Well, after joining the Kapamilya network, being included in one of the network’s highest-rated show, and appearing on various sexy billboard for Bench, there’s no reason for him not to top the list.

I had a chance to work with Paulo Avelino during the 10th year Anniversary Party of Mossimo Philippines. I approached him and we started having a quick-talk. At the backstage, I remember him taking a photo of us with his camera. And i also have a snapshot of us.

I am really happy that Paulo made it to the Top! He’s a very humble and hardworking guy. He’s also a good actor and he has proven his worth in the entertainment industry. I will forever support Paulo because that’s the only way i can thank him for the kindness and his genuine smile.

Since I am an Event Director, I had a chance to work with some of them or has been introduced to a few. So let’s name some of those Bachelors first.

My friend-Lucky Conde. He’s is from Batangas and once hosted a regional tv show under ABS-CBN. He’s one of our models during the Converse Block Party. I think Lucky is probably of the nicest model around.

Pancho was one of our Red Angels during an event/flash mob for a chocolate brand, together with Bryan Benedict of Protege.

Anthony Semerad

 

The Prodigal Twins of San Beda.
These two handsome guys used to play for San Beda Red Lions. During the championship game of NCAA, the Semerads caught the attention of the country after leading the Red Lions all the way to Championship. A few months later, they dropped the big bomb- David and Anthony Semerad decided to try-out for the Blue Eagles.

I am from San Beda and met them several times. We had a chance to talk and they were really nice.

Victor Silayan

 

We do interact a lot on Twitter. He started following me (I followed him first) after I helped him with something. He’s also one of my Mom’s favorite actor. Jome is a humble guy and very friendly. Follow him on Twitter too! here

 

We don’t know each other personally but we are Facebook friends and we once had a conversation via chat. Though, we’ve been on several events together, we never had a chance to talk personally.
