Journey's Pineda wins P1M 'deal'

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

By REYMA BUAN-DEVEZA, abs-cbnNEWS.com | 12/11/2008 6:56 PM

American popular rock band Journey’s new frontman Arnel Pineda won the P1 million prize in ABS-CBN’s hit game show “Deal or No Deal.”

Pineda was declared as the show’s 17th millionaire in the show hosted by Kris Aquino.

“Ayos naman, at least maraiming matutulungan. Marami ang nabigyan ng balato,” Pineda told abs-cbnNEWS.com in an interview.

Pineda said part of the prize will go to his foundation that aims to help streetchildren.

He also considered his winnings as an advance Christmas gift.

“Oo naman. It’s a very nice blessing. Hindi lahat doon nananalo kasi it’s a game of chance, a game of luck kasi talagang one in a million bago ka manalo,” he said.

During the game, the rock singer was accompanied by his loving wife Cherry Flores, his child and members of his former band The Zoo.

The singer said that he could not ask for more since God has showered him with so many blessings.

“Wala na akong wish Christmas wish, nag-the-thank you na lang sa mga blessing at sana ay health lang palagi,” he said.

Pineda who is in the country to take a short break is doing television guestings particularly on ABS-CBN shows.

Next year he is set to do an Asian tour concert with the rest of Journey band members.

Pesos? Garbage. Shit money from a shithole country.

Yeah dude, I kind of sort of knew that a million pesos was not 24 bucks and 73 cents, but that is called sarcasm. Still is shit money though. I guess what you are saying is instead of a Grand S;am at his local Denny's, he can rather purchase himself a used Subaru with bald tires. Oh that makes it a whole better.

1 million pesos is 20K USD. Not bad for his foundation, enough to feed hundreds of street children on christmas eve :D

For DOND celebrity edition, there are variety of charity instututions they would choose to donate their winnings. In his case, must have chosen his own foundation.

Can you edit your original post and include that part? it doesn't mention anything about celebrity edition. The original post makes it sound like he just went on a regular game show like any other common person.
