Global apparel retailer UNIQLO kicks off the Holiday celebration with the 11.11 nationwide sale. Customers can look forward to special offers and exclusive prices on their favorite LifeWear items.

“Few more days before UNIQLO Philippines’ 11.11 sale and I am already filling my cart with mine and my family and friends’ favorite LifeWear pieces,” shares Matteo Guidicelli, a UNIQLO fan and endorser of the brand. “I’m definitely doing my Christmas shopping at UNIQLO since it offers stylish and comfortable pieces for everyone’s everyday clothing needs.”

For his wife, Matteo’s top item is the Women’s Ultra Light Down Jacket, just in time for the cold weather. The jacket can be used as an innerwear or an outerwear and has a special lining so it’s static-free. For work, the jacket can be paired with the Women’s Rayon Skipper Collar ¾ Sleeve Blouse to add a sophisticated touch and the Women’s Smart Ankle Pants that has a two-way stretch for stress-free comfort.’

Its’ loose-fitting cut can be layered with the Women’s HEATTECH Ultra Warm Leggings in case she gets cold this season or when she travels to a cooler destination. It uses bio-warming, insulating, and moisture-retaining features making it 2.25 times* warmer than the regular HEATTECH item.

On the other hand, Matteo is eyeing more formal pieces for his dad to wear to his meetings and special occasions. Called the Ultimate Classic Shirt, the Men’s Oxford Long Sleeve Shirt is made with special yarn to achieve a fabric with a premium feel. It is also pre-washed and pressed for a lasting elegant look that goes well with the Men’s Smart Ankle Pants (Ultra Stretch DRY-EX). This pair of pants has a clean ankle-length cut and is made with DRY-EX material that quickly dries sweat and moisture for a comfortable feel even after a full day’s work. To complete the look is the convenient and versatile Men’s Overshirt Jacket (Jersey).

For his younger brother, he’s thinking of casual looks to go with his daily errands. The Men’s Chino Shorts has a unique texture brought out by slightly brushing the high-density cotton twill material and through a special dyeing and washing process. The fit has been made looser from the thigh to the hem so it is easier to pair with oversized tops like the Men’s Uniqlo U AIRism Cotton Crew Neck Oversized T-Shirt. For slower days at home, Matteo is buying his brother the Men’s AIRism Cotton Set (Short Sleeve) which offers a top and bottom made with AIRism material with dry technology to make it extra soft and comfortable.

Catch "Hey Matteo" on Nov 30 at the Kia Theater

After his very successful concert in Cebu last year, Matteo Guidicelli is once again taking centerstage, this time in Manila, with ”Hey Matteo" to be held at the Kia Theater on November 30, 2017 at 7:30PM.

”Hey Matteo” will give fans a glimpse into a different Matteo. This concert will introduce Matteo The Singer to the public. Though he has sung live on W and in personal appearances, this is Matteo’s first time to headline a concert in Manila. To say that he is excited is an understatement, especially because singing is one of his passions and it allows him the opportunity to share a side of himself with his fans that they may not always see in his Movie and TV roles. ”Singing for me is freedom, honesty, and telling your story. Singing and music will be the most natural, the most real, the most raw form of art . ”

“Hey Matteo" will be a coming together of artists whose passion and commitment to excellence know no bounds. It combines Matteo’s talents and enthusiasm with the creativity of Concert Director Rowell Santiago and Musical Director Louie Ocampo.

Having worked with Matteo in various projects in the past, both directors have borne witness to his growth as an artist and musician. With a repertoire that was carefully planned and selected, the concert will tell Matteo’s story through songs that strike the perfect balance between a youthful vibe and the 90s sound.

Matteo will be performing covers inspired by the music that he grew up with and of course, original songs from his new album including Hey, the album's first single that was released in September, that reintroduces to the public that alternative rock sound. Hey’s music video featuring Bogart the Explorer has also been released and is winning rave reviews for its unique and humorous perspective on courtship and winning the favor of your girl’s parents.

Add caption

Joining Matteo in this concert are some of the top names in the music industry today-Kiana Valenciano, rapper Loonie, and one of the most sought after female artists, Morisette Amon. 

”Hey Matteo” is produced by Big Bang productions, the same production company behind the successful #MatteoMadeinCebu concert last year. The show promises an exciting and entertaining evening that will show Matteo taking the leap from actor to singer to concert headliner. And, fans will undoubtedly enjoy the chance to see Matteo on stage and experience his love for music. Catch Matteo on November 30, 7:30PM at the Kia Theater.

For tickets, please contact Ticketnet at 911-5555 or at www.ticketnet.com.ph

Single/Single barkada tells all in episode 6

This week in Single/Single, find out the secrets your favorite barkada are keeping as they “tell all” and open up to a new character on the show.

Joee, played by Shaina Magdayao, finds herself confessing how she really feels about Steve, played by JC Santos.  It seems like the sparks of their romance are slowly fading as she avoids spending time with him and more on work. What truths will Joee reveal?



Cherie Gil’s character, Bianca, on the other hand, feels neglected by his son Joey, played by Matteo Guidicelli.  Now that Joey is bent on being a successful entrepreneur, he devotes all his time and effort to the opening of his business venture, Bistro Biajo.  Despite being business partners, their mother and son bonding have boiled down to discussions about  bottomlines and the tasks they need to do for the launch of their bistro. What does a mom do when her son ignores her? She shares all her woes to the new guy.

In the previous episodes, we saw Anna Luna’s character, Ranee, get swept off her feet by Randy, the hunk she met at Mama Yo’s Salon.  While he appears to be interested in her, why is Mr. Prince Charming not making any concrete moves? Ranee drinks and rants and lashes out all the questions that are driving her crazy. Will Randy be the one who will finally fulfill her dreams? Is she just setting herself up for disappointment?  All these she asks to the new guy by the bar.

Even the boys – Steve, Dwight, including Benny and Mama Yo – seem to naturally gravitate to this man and just pour out their innermost thoughts and feelings.

Watch and eavesdrop this Sunday to find out the dilemmas they are going through and finally, meet the new guy.

Single/Single, the award-winning series of PhilStarTV and Cinema One, airs every Sunday, 10PM in Cinema One with replays every Wednesday 8:30PM and Saturday 9PM. Past episodes can also be viewed on philstartv.com. For more updates, visit facebook.com/SingleSingleC1 and @SingleSingleC1 on Twitter and Instagram.

How Matteo Guidicelli Pursues His Dream Girl!

It was a day of fun and excitement when Matteo Guidicelli was presented to the press as the new endorser of Mentos on March 20, 2014 at the Century Mall Cinema.  Meeting him in person, made us all girls fell in love right away with his charms. This boy is a total package. Mentos is lucky  to have him as their new endorser, as he is fresh, sweet, fun and surprisingly he sings well too.

We were treated to a guessing game of what is real or unreal with Matteo. That was fun because the media gamely participated. He made a  three-part mini movie. Of all the three that he acted in, I did like the second one "The Italian Lover" which made an impact to the audience because of the way he spoke Italian, which brings out the romantic side of him. You should hear the girls in front of me screamed with delight. He blew us all away.

This award-winning actor, accomplished athlete and all-around heartthrob won our hearts away.

The Filipino-Italian has never been one to shy away from stuff that may make your run-of-the-mill young star take a step back. With Matteo, it's all about pushing the limits in the pursuit of his passions, whether he's diving deep into an acting role or zooming towards breaking records on a racing circuit.

This year, the buzzworthy dreamboat gives us a chance to see sides of him we may be aware of, but have never witnessed firsthand. Genuine hyphenates are hard to come by these days, and Matteo will erase any doubt that he's a man of action...in every sense of the word.

That's why he signed up to be the star of the Mentos Strawberry Mix Thrillogy: a uniquely entertaining online experience that shows Matteo's multi-faceted persona. After all, a different kind of candy needs a different kind of leading man.

With the new Mentos Strawberry Mix, three surprising flavors are perfectly packed in one roll, giving you more than your usual candy. Feel the exciting tangy burst of Sour Strawberry, relish the rich sweetness of Vanilla Strawberry, or indulge in the reliable simplicity of Classic Strawberry.

The Mentos Strawberry Mix Thrillogy lets Matteo take us on three fun-tastic rides that showcase all that he has to offer as he tries to win the heart of the girl of his dreams... with two very special strawberry-headed accomplices in tow.  After all, even the man who can seemingly do it all needs a little help at times, making the Mentos Strawberry Hitmen the ideal quirky allies on Matteo's out-of-the box adventures.

In The Thrill of the Chase, Matteo's active, energetic side will make pulses race as he embodies his adrenaline driven “Action Star” persona. As you watch him run, swim, and practically do everything he can to earn honorary stuntman stripes, you're sure to get a refreshing kick like you would from a Sour Strawberry dragee inside Mentos Strawberry Mix.

Matteo also indulges in his romantic Italian roots in The Thrill of Declaring Your Love as he spouts poetry that would make even Michelangelo blush. Well, maybe not but it's worth it to see him try! You'll definitely find Matteo “The Italian Lover” just as irresistible as the full flavor of Sweet Vanilla (especially with his adorable Italian accent).

Some ladies prefer their suitors to be a little more straightforward though, and Matteo doesn't disappoint in The Thrill of Being Real. There's no denying the “Boy Next Door” charisma he exudes even without all the frills and his down-to-earth appeal will win you over like the uncomplicated delightfulness of Classic Strawberry flavor.

It will be plain to see that there's more of Matteo to love in the Mentos Strawberry Mix Thrillogy (Guys, be prepared to take notes if you want to make a girl swoon). So whatever you may be looking for, you're sure to crave exciting experiences of your own once Matteo's shown you how much fun it can be.

Because, really, why settle for the ordinary when you can triple the thrill? And Mentos has, through the years, taught us to get a kick out of the simplest things, and make every day a chance to live out loud and live fresh.

It's a kind of magic that's found in every Perfetti Van Melle product—the European company that prides itself in pushing the envelope of candy excellence around the world. Other famous brands like Fruittella, Smint, Alpenliebe and Chupa Chups are stamped with the same flavor of fun that Perfetti Van Melle has made its calling card.
