Raymond Gutierrez is glad to be hosting Party Pilipinas

RAYMOND GUTIERREZ was no longer in "SOP" when it folded up so he's now elated to be part of the new cast of "Party Pilipinas". "I started my hosting career five years ago in 'SOP' and I'm really glad I'm back at noontime on Sunday," he says. "We're all excited with it as there's a lot that the audience can look forward to. It will be more fresh, more entertaining."

Someone from her sister Ruffa's camp told us that the story that she'll return to "The Buzz" this Sunday to say goodbye formally is simply not true. "Ayaw ng madir niya!" says our source. "Sabi ni Annabelle, once umalis na siya, wag na siyang babalik-balik pa. Yun na yon!"

At the contract signing, we asked Annabelle herself about this and she confirmed it. "No, hindi na kailangan pang lumabas uli doon si Ruffa."
