"Ang wish ko mas marami pang pera ngayong taon," Tito Alfie said laughing before blowing out his birthday candle.

Sitting beside him is Annabelle Rama, standing behind him are ABS-CBN TV head Ms. Cory Vidanes and TAPE Inc.'s Senior Vice President and Chief Operations Officer Malou Choa-Fagar.

Senator Bong Revilla (seated, right) arrived early at the party. According to the actor-politician, his wife Lani Mercado and their son Jolo left for the United States earlier that day to seek medical help for their son's severe migraine attacks.

Also in the picture are (L-R): Anna Pingol of YES! magazine, Baby Gil, Jun Nardo, Jobert Sucaldito, Malou Choa-Fagar and Dondon Sermino.

"Baka naman pauwi na talaga sila," we heard another writer say.

Daiana Meneses said, "Ibinalik ko yung singsing, no?"

The Brazilian model-TV host was referring to the engagement ring that her ex-boyfriend, director GB Sampedro, gave her last August 2011.

The couple broke up before their scheduled trip to Daiana's home country last December.

With her in this photo is YES! magazine's managing editor, Anna Pingol.

Lotlot de Leon came with daughter Janine Gutierrez to greet their Tito Alfie.

We heard someone say, "Puwedeng sumali sa beauty contest ang anak ni Lotlot, pero parang mahiyain."

Mother Lily Monteverde (left) kept passing her plate to those at her table saying, "Try this; this is good."

Ricky Davao (center) later joined the group and chatted with Annabelle Rama (right).
