Yes! Life Stories: Dingdong Dantes

Yes! Magazine is about to release its first "bookazine" called "Yes! Life Stories". And unfolding his most private realities, deepest dreams, and darkest fantasies on its maiden issue is the country's hottest matinee idol of today - Dingdong Dantes or Jose Sixto Gonzales Dantes III in real life.

"This book contains my most private realities, my deepest dreams, and my darkest fantasies," writes Dingdong Dantes before issuing a severe warning: "If you're not ready to handle my truth...then don't turn the page."

Adding more voices to the bookazine are some of the closest people in Dingdong's life like his Manager Perry Lansigan and rumored girlfriend Marian Rivera who will share their most valuable insights about the actor.

And aside from the juicy revelations and never-before-heard confessions, Yes! Life Stories will also feature some of Dingdong's artistic images taken by ace photographers Massimiliano Cori, Jay Tablante, and Lon Liwen.

Presented in four segments: Reality, Dreams, Fantasy, and Perception - the pictures capture Dingdong in various roles and scenarios as conceptualized by the upcoming Stairway To Heaven lead star himself.

Dingdong unleashes his perfect physique while basking on the ranch, assumes the role of a decorated soldier, and takes on the legendary Spartan warrior Leonidas. He portrays these characters with much gusto and with his usual intensity.

The image of Dingdong - arms outstretched on a wooden cross with blood gushing on the side - emulating Jesus Christ's crucifixion is perhaps the most disturbing photo of the 29-year-old actor.

YES! editor-in-chief Jo-Ann Maglipon edited Dingdong's bookazine, Andrew Paredes wrote the stories, and Nat Clave served as art director.

YES! Life Stories: Dingdong will be launched on August 25.
