Awww, it’s been just 9 months since we started doing this, but it seems so long ago! Super kaduper thanks to @jrhyan for putting this together!

When we met Bela Padilla during the press launch for the Yahoo! OMG Awards, we knew we had to guest her. She’s drop-dead gorgeous, and has a sharp wit about her to boot! So when she got to the station, she was rarin’ to go, and hit the ground running.
Of course we had to have our epic pic. I have no idea why i tried to fit my face into the kettle bell handle, but I guess I’m odd that way. I look like a shmooshed duck. As always, everybody else looks normal.

Then of course came our epic rap-off. We skipped a week and missed one rap-off, mostly due to my “Lindsay Lohan”-ish episode, so we promised to make up for it this week. Hopefully we didn’t disappoint. At least we got it in one take! Again, our endless thanks to @JRhyan for always recording our celebrity guests on video every single time, even though he hadn’t had a stitch of sleep. Duper kaduper thanks Jaime!!!
Bela actually sounds good enough to be on radio. She’s got this really nice “cool chick” timbre to her voice, and she’s got a really adorable laugh that sounds interminable cute on air. Talk about a complete package! Thanks again, Bela!!!

It’s been a busy and hectic week, so although it’s a bit late, here’s my post on the Yassi Pressman guesting with the Kikay Barkada! The girl is cray-cray. She fits in so well with the kikayness and the bitchiness that is the norm in the morning. She may be 17, but she can make sabayan with us whatever it was we were talking about. And she got the zingers as well. Since she’s a great dancer, we thought we should skip the rap-off, and go for a dance-off instead. Here was the hot mess that was the first ever Morning Rush dance battle!
I swear, she’s a ball of energy! As you can see, I went low batt towards the end of the routine! This half-British kid was a handgul, and that’s just the way we like it in the morning! Cray-cray!

It was quite a treat having Rocco Nacino over to join the fun on The Morning Rush, because he was very much game to join whatever kulitan we had in store for him! Of course he had his fan sign for the Rushers:

And, every single time we have a guest in the booth, we cannot NOT have an Epic Pic, this one with Rocco gamely showing us his “abs”!

And of course, our now notorious Epic Rap-Off! This was a first, because Rocco joined the Rap-Off, the first guest of ours to actually join in the rapping!
We even had to do a take 2, but it’s all good, it all turned out funny in the end. I didn’t get to enjoy our little Magic Mike moment there, since I didn’t want to flub my part, so watching this was actually the first time I saw what actually happened. Special thanks to @JRhyan for documenting Rocco’s guesting, for posting it on YouTube, and for giving Rocco a copy of our book as a souvenir! Wow, he gets to think of the stuff that we should be on top of. Again, thanks Jaime! I do hope he comes back for seconds, and expect more guestings like Rocco’s in the future! Tell us who you want to have on the show, and if we can wrangle it, we will! Or better yet, if you have contacts to the celebs you want on the show, maybe you can help us out.


Omigosh, thank you to @jrhyan for this! It definitely made our morning! I just officially lodge my protest. How come Delle and Gino get to have big pageant-friendly smiles, and I get a constipated princess look instead? NOT. FAIR.

Wow, thanks to JRhyan for this Epic Pic Collage! I never knew we had this much already!
