Batman actor Christian Bale, 34, was arrested after his mother and sister reported him to police for alleged assaulting them. His mother Jenny, 61, and sister Sharon, 40, are said to have gone to a police station in Hampshire to make the claim, which was later referred to the Metropolitan police.

Bale, in London to attend the European premiere on Monday night of superhero blockbuster, The Dark Knight, was apprehended at the up market Dorchester Hotel.

The Welsh actor had been staying there when he alleged incident took place.

A Met Police spokesman said: “A 34-year-old man attended a London police station on Tuesday by appointment and was arrested in connection with an allegation of assault. He currently remains in custody.”

He is alleged out at his mother and sister on Sunday at the Dorchester, Britain press reports said.

Police allowed Bale to attend Monday night’s premiere, where there was no sign of the family drama.

The movie has become a monster hit in the United States, Singapore and other countries

Lift your head, baby, don’t be scared / Of the things that could go wrong along the way / You’ll get by with a smile / You can’t win at everything but you can try. Remembering those days with my high school classmates, singing this song in field trips and break time. Since MP3 became part of the trend, I included it to my playlist and regularly play it. I’m glad when I have read Ricky Lo’s write-ups in Philippine Star last Sunday that Eraserheads will have a reunion concert this August. Here’s the article:

Flash: Eraserheads reunite!

Sunday, July 13, 2008

Yes, it’s confirmed: The Eraserheads are reuniting after many years of being apart, not for good but only for one show slated for Aug. 30 at the CCP Open Grounds.

According to the STAR source, all the original members (photo) are performing — Ely Buendia, Buddy Zabala, Marcus Adoro and Raimund Marasigan.

This piece of good news should make the Eraserheads fans very happy.

Said to be the ‘greatest Pinoy band,’ the Eraserheads will sing all their hit songs, including Alapaap, Toyang and Ang Huling El Bimbo.

Waah! Why only now? I was in the Philippines for more than a month but it’s only now that I’m here in Singapore and they are going to have a concert. I will not be able to see it but I’m still happy for these guys to reunite again for a concert. I hope someone will televise and upload it in any video-sharing websites

I saw their spoof video in YouTube last month. Yesterday, I searched their latest spoof and I was surprised because they’re already in GMA Channel 7 and become part of the longest-running gag show Bubble Gang. Moymoy Palaboy lip-synchs Parokya ni Edgar’s song Ordertaker last Friday. This two got famous in YouTube because of their Spice Girl’s Wannabe lip-sync video with more than a million views.

While searching American Idol Season 7 in YouTube, I was surprised because there was a Filipino who joined the audition. He is Ronaldo Lapuz, 44-years old from Reno, Nevada who entered the American Idol audition in Dallas, Texas. Wearing a flashy silver cape, white adornments and white hat that had Simon written on it. Renaldo sung his original composition titled: We’re Brothers Forever and Simon Cowell was unimpressed at first but later on he waves his hands to him. Randy Jackson was so amused while Paula Abdul stood up from her seat and motioned.

Randy went up to Renaldo and belted out the lyrics: “I am your brother / your best friend forever / singing these songs / the music that you love / We’re brothers till the end of time / together or not, you’re always in my mind.” After that Simon gave his appraisal to Renaldo for his performance and said it’s going to be No but he told that it’s going to be a hit record.
