Talk about a transformation and Angeline Quinto will come to mind.
The singer looks dramatically different than before. She is much prettier and has lost weight.
“Kung sabagay,” a kibitzer observed, “Angeline has not denied that she submitted to beauty enhancement.”
Did she also have her breasts done? someone asked.
“Puwedeng hindi,” the kibitzer replied, “likas na maganda naman ang dibdib niya.”
Angeline was at the “Traslacion” for the feast day of the Black Nazarene in Quiapo last Saturday.
Like Noli de Castro and Coco Martin, she is a devotee of the Black Nazarene.

While Janella Salvador and Markus Peterson are super happy to have their newborn son, Jude, married is not in their immediate plans.
“It can wait,” they both say.
Janella and Markus are still in the United Kingdom. But they are hoping that will get an assignment as soon as they return home.
Janella’s mom, singer-actress Janine Desiderio, reportedly offered to help take care of Jude. Janine is separated from Janella’s dad, Rage Band vocalist and award-winning songwriter Juan Miguel Salvador.
Janella decided to give birth in the United Kingdom where Markus was born.
Before Markus ventured into showbiz, he was a known football player.
Before they became sweethearts, Janella and Markus were never linked to each other.
Markus was previously rumored to have courted Filipino-Australian singer Ylona Garcia. And Janella was with Elmo Magalona and also paired with Joshua Garcia, her leading man in the series “The Killer Bride.”
