I met him last year when he invited me for a food review. Since then, he'd invite me to cover and  be the first to know about the newest in fashion, food, arts and many more. I tell you, I've seen and met many wonderful, fabulous and popular people because of Philip. Get to do the same at the comforts of your own home by watching Philip's new lifestyle magazine and talk show called “It’s More fun with Philip”, airing every Sunday from 10 to 10:30 pm starting this December at TV5.
