Filipino boxer Manny Pacquiao and pop singer Nicole Scherzinger from the Pussycat Dolls are set to star in a Filipino movie, titled “Wapakman”.

Filipino stars Manny Pacquiao, Nicole Scherzinger and Dave Batista

Pacquiao, nicknamed Pacman, is one of the world’s top boxer and highest paid sportsman; while Nicole, the lead singer for PCD is actually a half Filipina… so, it actually makes sense for the duo to work together in a Filipino production.

    Great to see Batista branching out to the world of film instead of being just a wrestler for the WWE. I wonder if he will be as big as The Rock Dwayne Johnson starring in major films like “Escape from Witch Mountan, The scorpion king, and the Mummy.

    Nicole has the good looks to play a leading lady.

    Pacquiao as Nicole’s leading man?!! Yeah, I caught this piece of news on the boob tube. My reation: Eeeeew!

    Ahm, are we running out of real talents here?

    it makes me gag just trying to imagine Pacquiao kissing Nicole. (of course superheroes and their leading ladies will somehow eventually have to kiss, right?)

    .. and those commercials with Aling Dionisia in them, especially the Magnolia ad where the whole Pacquiao family is featured. Oh, puh-lease..

    This is making my skin crawl.
