Yasmien Kurdi paid homage to her "StarStruck" days at the GMA Gala 2025. On social media, the Kapuso actress shared a photo of herself on the blue carpet at the gala night, confidently strutting in a red tube gown—an upcycled version of the one she wore 21 years ago. "Do you remember this gown? This is the very same gown I wore during Starstruck's Judgement Night 21 years ago!" Yasmien said. According to Yasmien, she wanted to quietly pay tribute to everything GMA Network has done for her, so she decided to have the gown upcycled by Filipino fashion designer JC Buendia. "I had the best time at the Gala reconnecting with old friends who truly feel like family. Happy 75th, GMA! Here's to many more years of storytelling and memories," she wrote. Yasmien was among the contestants of "StarStruck" Season 1 that aired on GMA Network in 2023. She finished as the First Princess with Jennylyn Mercado being hailed as the Ultimate Female Survivor. She is married to Rey Soldevilla and has two daughters, Ayesha and Raya. —Jade Veronique Yap/MGP, GMA Integrated News

The "T.G.I.S." barkada gathered to honor and remember their late fellow cast member, Red Sternberg. On Instagram, "T.G.I.S." director Mark Reyes shared photos from Red's memorial service, which was held this month. 'The TGIS Barkada hosts a memorial service for [Red Sternberg]. Welcome home Kiko!' Direk Mark wrote, tagging Red and his fellow cast members Angelu De Leon, Bobby Andrews, Michael Flores, Rica Peralejo, and Ciara Sotto. In a separate Instagram post, Angelu shared photos from the gathering, featuring herself, Direk Mark, Bobby, Michael, Ciara, and Rica all dressed in white. She also posted a heartfelt picture with Red's wife Sandy and their three children. 'Hanggang sa muli, Red,' Angelu wrote. Michael also shared a photo carousel from the memorial and wrote: 'Remembering our brother.' Meanwhile, on her Instagram post, Rica wrote a heartfelt tribute message dedicated to Red. 'I never thought we'd meet again this way. Naka-side eye ka pa while I am talking about you, which is so you. Pero Kiko talagang hinintay ko lumabas ka sa likod nyan so you can tell us all 'Surprise! It's a prank!' But you didn't,' Rica wrote. The actress shared her sadness, saying it would have been special to know Red as the husband and father that his family has been remembering and missing so much. 'You have such beautiful and wonderful girls, from Sandy to your daughters. And I got to talk to your boy about Roblox! Ikaw na lang talaga ang kulang,' Rica said. She also acknowledged that some losses in life are beyond understanding. "[W]e can only heal from them. Nevertheless, like what I was saying in the memorial, I am grateful that we got to love you and you got to love us in this lifetime," she said. Red passed away on May 27, just three days before what would have been his 51st birthday. His wife Sandy confirmed that he died due to a heart attack. "T.G.I.S.," a coming-of-age afternoon series, premiered on GMA Network on August 12, 1995. The successful show had more than 200 episodes.
