According to the Taylor Nelson Sofres (TNS) survey, I Love Betty La Fea is the winner in the primetime race last Tuesday and Wednesday but the top spot was grabbed by May Bukas Pa last Thursday and Friday.

The Kim Chiu-Gerald Anderson starrer “Tayong Dalawa”, on the other hand, placed 3rd last Tuesday, dropped to 4th last Wednesday and Thursday and climbed to 3rd again last Friday.

The highest achiever among GMA shows is Luna Mystika which is a consistent 5th placer from Tuesday to Thursday until it was beaten by Eva Fonda last Friday and settled for 6th overall.

Dingdong Dantes and Marian Rivera‘s “Tadyang” debuted at no. 3 nationwide last Monday but just like in Mega Manila, it wasn’t able to maintain it’s pilot episode and dropped to 6th last Tuesday to Thursday and an even lower 8th place last Friday.

The highest-registered rating last week was 38% and this was achieved by the drama series “May Bukas Pa” last February 5, 2009.

TV Ratings: Dyesebel Slips to No. 2 for the Very First Time, Betty Debuts at No. 5 originally appeared on Starmometer on September 10, 2008.

On the other hand, Bea Alonzo and Vhong Navarro (as Betty and Nicholas respectively) demonstrated the “bettyful” dance move.

Bettyful Song Number and Bettyful Dance on ASAP originally appeared on Starmometer on September 1, 2008.

The announcement of who will play Armando was supposed to be aired on ASAP a couple of weeks ago but for certain reasons, it was postponed. The names of Piolo Pascual, Jake Cuenca, Gabby Concepcion and John Lloyd Cruz surfaced on tabloids and blogs as the shoo-ins for the role.

If we are to deliberate each one, we can pick the actor with the most-possibilities of bagging the role. First is Piolo Pascual. He is about to do a movie with Angel Locsin right now and playing the role of Armando could be a conflict of interest. The same can be said about Gabby Concepcion who is starring as ‘Rafael’ in Iisa Pa Lamang. There’s no actor or actress in ABS-CBN who starred in two different primetime series that are running at the same period of time. So Gabby’s out for sure. Jake Cuenca is about to star in a soap opera opposite Angelica Panganiban and Alessandra de Rossi so it’s probably not Jake also.

John Lloyd Cruz, on the other hand, just finished the movie with Sarah Geronimo. He has no primetime project so far and the reason why ABS-CBN postponed the announcement of the “Armando” role was because John Lloyd’s movie is about to begin showing at that time.

And with the current series of teasers showing Armando’s back, our best bet is none other than John Lloyd Cruz, Bea Alonzo’s original love team. But i could be wrong, of course.

Here is the teaser:

The revelation will finally air tomorrow on The Buzz.

John Lloyd Cruz is Armando Solis on ‘I Love Betty La Fea’? originally appeared on Starmometer on August 16, 2008.

Alessandra was assigned with another “kontra-bida” role in the Rhian Ramos starrer but she refused the offer. It was reported that Rhian and Alessandra had an encounter in the taping of “L.U.V. Pow!” The said program was shelved because one of it’s star, Valerie Concepcion, switched network last year.

Aside from “I Love Betty La Fea”, Alessandra was also offered to lead in an upcoming soap opera co-starring her with Jake Cuenca and Angelica Panganiban.

Alessandra de Rossi Transfers to ABS-CBN for I Love Betty La Fea originally appeared on Starmometer on August 14, 2008.

To the tune of “Hey Betty You are Beautiful” by Mika, the final cast of Betty La Fea were finally introduced by Toni Gonzaga. The sneak peek was inserted minutes ago between gaps of My Girl.

The Final Cast:

Bea Alonzo as Betty
Ai Ai delas Alas as Julia
Sam Concepcion as Andrew
Ronaldo Valdez as Hermes
Marvin Yap as Bart
Lloyd Zaragoza as Roman
Vhong Navarro as Nicolas
Sheryn Regis as Kylie
Meryll Soriano as Rose
Krystel Moreno as Jen
Arlene Tolibas as Cely
CJ Jaravata as Lita
Sammy Villaresis as Guard
Wendy Valdez as Patricia
Megan Young as Marcela
Ruffa Gutierrez as Daniela
Joem Bascon as Mario
Randolf Stalamacky as Randy
Ronnie Liang as Enrique
Jojo Alejar as Mac
Thou Reyes as Hugo

But who’s Betty’s boss? Who is going to play “Armando”? I was hoping its Jake Cuenca. Speculations have it that Jon Avila or Gabby Concepcion will play Armando. We’ll see.
