JESSICA SANCHEZ SINGING THE ANTHEMS

Too much vibrato, the old ones will say, but we totally dig Jessica’s version of “Lupang Hinirang” and “Star-Spangled Banner”) — short, sweet, solid, strong, proud and definitely inspiring!

MORE HOLLYWOOD FANS SURFACE

Mark Wahlberg and Paris Hilton were just some of the many fans of Pacman. Let’s add to the list Victoria’s Secret Angel Adriana Lima, who even got her wish granted when she got to meet and train with Manny.
