  1. I am very disappointed that the pictures taken and posted on the Internet majority were unknown people. I was expecting to see more of the Philippine actors/singers whom we know best, but instead there are so many people who are not that even famous. Let Alone Nora Aunor which is an Icon has no picture. Kuh Ledesma has only one versus aong all the unknown. Please, next time you have this vision again, planned it well and include the important people not just post someone wannabes.. this is very embarassing and it comes off as a cheap trying hard night..

  2. It’s a travesty that not even one photograph of Ms. Nora Aunor, the one and only Superstar and a presenter in the evening’s festivities was made. Even Ms. Kuh Ledesma had only one snapshot.

    The event has a lot to improve upon for next year’s show.

  3. The photographers who submitted the slides to us were limited by the constraints placed upon them by the organizers of the event and timing of the celebrity attendees.
    1. Pre-show red carpet photos could only be taken for a limited time (thus well-known celebs who came in late had no shots)
    2. The photographers then were PREVENTED from taking pictures of presenters and awardees at the show, instead they were herded down to the press room where supposedly they could shoot photos and interview the presenters and awardees. Unfortunately, most of the aforementioned were not escorted down to the press room. And if photographers left the room, they were not allowed back in.
    3. The after-show party was not open to photographers. Some had to pass through the “back door” through sheer resourcefulness to be able to take pictures of celebs who stayed on for the after-show party.

    That being said, kudos to the group of photogs who were able to share their pictures with us. Cheers.
