Here are some basic info about some of the Z-list celebs who auditioned for TARP:


KC Montero
*  Former MTV Asia VJ.
*  Currently working as a DJ in some English-speaking radio station.
*  Joined Survivor Philippines: Celebrity Doubles Showdown with ex-wife Geneva Cruz, who quit before the first Tribal Council.  It was a trainwreck.


Troy Montero
*  KC's older brother.
*  Worked as a model and actor.
*  His girlfriend, actress Aubrey Miles, joined TARA and Survivor Philippines Celebrity Edition.

********


Danilo Barrios
*  Former member of Streetboys dance group.
*  Eventually worked as an actor, as many members of Streetboys do.


Jaycee Parker
*  Wife of Danilo Barrios
*  Started out as a "sexy model" and became a "sexy actress."  (We don't do porn here, but "sexy movies" are the closest to it.)

********


Rosanna Roces
*  The top-tier sexy actress back in the 1990s, with movies such as (when translated to English) "The Heat Can't Be Stopped," "May I Taste Your Pineapple," and "When Eve Opened Her Eyes."
*  Known for her "public" trainwreck moments.

Don't bother about her son.  We don't know him, except he got arrested for drunk driving.

lol starczamora at the pictures you chose!

There are plenty of other rumored names and possible celeb names out there, but with some of the names I'd actually be fine if half of the cast is celebs. 
But I'd still prefer at least half are regular ol' folk.

business comes to matter bro....

who's gonna watch TV5 if all pure original people... (of course they are still a lot), but with involving artists that not all of their everyday's life or attitude or behavior can be seen on TV, and with TAR all characteristics of human can possibly revealed... and watching artists doing silly and dirty stuff (literally speaking, like mud, paint, etc...) where they were always look clean and handsome and beautiful is also part of entertainment...  ;)


But, again I'm surprised that all Philippine's FHM stars can easily bypass TAR Asia and now attempted to do TAR Philippines...  :stare

KC Montero also joined the last Survivor Phils. and made it the Top 4. He was then blindsided by his two lady allies.  :lol:

One step closer to our TARPh host.

Actor Derek Ramsay confirmed that TV5 has indeed offered TARPh to him, but he hasn't officially signed the contract.

From this article at PEP.com:
Quote
Nang tanungin ng PEP kung ano ang proyektong inialok sa kanya ng TV5 na natipuhan niya, inamin niya: “They were mentioning the Amazing Race and the Olympics.”

"When PEP asked which projects offered to him by TV5 appealed to him, he confessed: "They were mentioning the Amazing Race and the Olympics.""

He officially signed the contract so it looks like Derek Ramsay will host TARP.

Confirming what everyone's basically known for a year lol, Derek Ramsay is officially the host of The Amazing Race Philippines.  But one interesting thing, he mentions how with TARPh, he'll be traveling around his "own country."  I hope he's just mistaken or half-right and that TARPh will leave the Philippines even if it's just half the Race.



The relevant piece from the article at PEP:
Quote
    AMAZING RACE. Three-year exclusive contract ang pinirmahan ni Derek sa TV5.

    Gaya ng unang naiulat, ang unang magiging show ni Derek sa TV5 ay ang The Amazing Race Philippines, ang local franchise ng Emmy-winning reality show sa Amerika.

    Ni-request niya ba ang Amazing Race?

    “Actually, hindi.  Ever since that show came out, I’ve been wanting to participate.  Sabi ko nga sa TV5, sana contestant na lang ako rather than host.  But yeah, I’ll be hosting Amazing Race,” pagkumpirma ng aktor.

    Dagdag pa niya, “I cannot believe that they entrusted me to be the host of Amazing Race! One of my passions is travelling. I’m gonna get to go around my own country.  We have so many beautiful places in the Philippines. I’ve travelled [to] a lot [of places in the] country but I’m sure marami pang lugar na hindi ko pa napupuntahan.  I’m sure sa project na ito, mapupuntahan ko itong mga lugar na ito.  I mean, anong klaseng trabaho yun, di ba? Nakakapag-ikot ako.  I’m gonna go to paradise and say, ‘You’re team number one, you’re team number two, you’re last…’  That would be the most negative part about this project but I mean to get to travel and see our beautiful country, that’s amazing!”

And with my so-so Tagalog translating skills, lol:

Meh, wouldn't be surprised if that were true. :duno:

I wouldn't mind them just traveling the Philippines since there's everything from tropical rain forests to desert sand dunes to fog-covered mountains.  But I do hope they can visit some nearby countries.

I'm honestly getting worried about this. hopefully TV5 will make TARP a good one. I don't trust adapted reality show that much.

Still hoping for at least one or two other counties to be visited, though.  :knuckles:

Damnit Derek! lol
Maybe he means they'll start out with a couple of legs in the Philippines then leave the country.  (At least that's what we are all hoping  hehe)

TARP's wikipedia page says it will be in standard 480i definition. I find this stunning. Even the Vietnam version will be in High-Def.


I'm really worried about this version, I hope it won't go TARAsia's way (consisting of nothing but celebrity teams, very cheesy at times, loaded with product placements, and unimpressive route).

I'm doubtful, but hopeful :jam:

Race around the Philippines? I think it's a good idea but I hope they travel around the world.

what about 6 legs in the Philippines and 6 legs in SE Asia?  And damn, TAR 21 didn't visited to my country and they're already heading eastward toward Sri Lanka after Indonesia and Singapore legs, in spite that Puerto Princesa Underground River is officially part of 7 Wonders of Nature.  Probably they don't like the airport in Manila because the Ninoy Aquino International Airport is one of the WORST airport in the world.  Blame those corrupt officials in my country! :gaah:

carrying this over from TAR21 Spoilers

The person who posted these pics on instagram I am assuming is from the Philippines (her bio says she attended De La Salle-College of Saint Benilde)

Could this be TARPhilippines?!?!  :duno:
