“It’s magical to see them both together,” says Bilall Fallah, who directs with his partner Adil El Arbi, and are best-known as simply Adil & Bilall. “It’s unbelievable, the chemistry they have. It’s always surprising when you’re behind the monitors directing the scene and they come up with this genius golden humor – you sit back, relax, and see them perform.” When that magic happens, he says, his job is easy. “They’re the best duo on the big screen, and very unique.”
Smith says that his chemistry with Lawrence comes out of 30 years of respect for each other’s craft. “We both have grown and experienced a lot of life,” he says. “So, when we come together, the amount of respect and care, and concern for each other – it’s the only way to work.”

In the mid-1990s, Martin Lawrence and Will Smith did not know each other before Lawrence cold-called Smith to see if the star of Fresh Prince of Bel-Air would be interested in teaming with the star of Martin for an R-rated buddy cop movie. Lawrence had the script, and his sister, who was a fan of Fresh Prince, suggested that her brother call Smith. The result was not only one of the great pairings in movie history that changed their lives, but a real-life friendship too. “It’s the best phone call I ever made,” says Lawrence. “We had known of each other’s work, but we’d never met. When we did meet, there was a mutual respect and it was clear we had a connection. Even now, 30 years later, we are close friends. Even when it has been a minute since we’ve seen each other, we know we can always count on each other. Ride or die, for real.”
“Isn’t that what we all want? Someone we can count on no matter what?” adds Smith. “That’s part of the joy of these movies – bad boys for life is truly for life.”
Bad Boys: Ride or Die sees Mike Lowrey (Smith) and Marcus Burnett (Lawrence) in the biggest jam they’ve ever faced: when new evidence comes to light implicating the late Captain Howard (Joe Pantoliano) in a lifetime of drug-related crimes, the Bad Boys vow to clear his name… even if it means coming in the crosshairs of the cartel and the cops.

Adil & Bilall return to the helm of the movie after also directing Bad Boys for Life and notching the franchise’s best reviews from critics and audiences alike. “When we were 19 and studying in Brussels in film school, we were always dreaming of one day being part of Hollywood, and we were always joking that if one day we would be getting the chance to go to Hollywood, we’d want to make a Bad Boys movie – a Bad Boys 3,” Bilall laughs. “But obviously, we never really believed that it would happen up until we got to ask Jerry [Bruckheimer, producer] and Will. And we’re still pinching ourselves. We are fanboys, so it’s still a very surreal feeling.”
Don’t miss out on explosive action and laugh-out-loud humor Bad Boys style when Bad Boys: Ride or Die, distributed in the Philippines by Columbia Pictures, local office of Sony Pictures Releasing International, opens in cinemas June 5. #BadBoys @columbiapicph

The Aivee Clinic, a leading name in Philippine dermatology and aesthetics, continues to push boundaries with the launch of Aivee Revive. This innovative treatment introduces the concept of pre-juvenation – an effective, definitive treatment with immediate and long-lasting results.
In today’s world where your next photo is just a click away, maintaining that flawless, camera-ready glow has become more crucial than ever. Aivee Revive steps in as a game-changer. Merz Aesthetics® introduces Belotero®Revive, a first of its kind dermal filler that combines Glycerol with cross-linked Hyaluronic Acid to deliver ideal skin quality with enhanced hydration resulting in improved skin elasticity, firmness, and structure so it’s glowing and bright.
With this growing demand and more skincare brands and lines available, it is easy to fall into the multi-step skincare regimen, where consumers use a minimum of five (5) skincare products, to a maximum of ten (10), in the hopes that most ideal skin would be achieved.
Belotero®Revive offers a simplification of multi-step skincare regimen with an instant glow-up from dull, acne-prone, dry, and hyperpigmented skin – a must for flawless, youthful, and radiant skin. It is also the solution to address fine lines, rough skin texture and dull skin complementing any current usage of fillers, toxins, lasers, and other treatments.
Pre-Juvenation & Rejuvenation
At the launch of Aivee Revive, Dr. Aivee Teo shared, “It’s really important to take care of ourselves before ageing starts.”
Dr. Aivee not only advocates for healthy and youthful skin, but also shares the need to take pre-emptive steps to support our skin’s well-being.
While there are numerous treatments in the market to provide skin rejuvenation, the best way to be prepared against wrinkles, laxity, sagging and texture is to have skin boosting treatments like the Aivee Revive treatment. Dr. Z Teo goes on to put it simply, “Pre-juvenation means you do it before things happen!”
Aivee X Revive
Thanks to glycerol with cross-linked hyaluronic acid, the Aivee Revive treatment delivers the product directly into the skin for deep hydration, beyond the reach of any topical skincare. Glycerol helps to hydrate the skin and create a more natural-looking result. It also has anti-inflammatory properties that can reduce swelling and bruising at the injection site, making the recovery process much smoother. The Aivee Revive treatment guarantees results within 9-12 months.
Further relating to the product of the Aivee Revive treatment, Dr. Z Teo explains that, “This is the only one that managed to put into a syringe (Glycerol) together with Hyaluronic Acid. And when we place it in, it reduces the inflammation in the skin and hydrates the skin cells – so you get this Revive Glow. So, for those people in the room that have done it, they look like they have this glow in their skin. It’s pretty amazing.”
Speaking in front of Aivee Clinic ambassadors, VIPs and influencers, Dr. Z Teo adds, “It hydrates the skin, in the right layers and makes it (the skin) glow.”
The Aivee Clinic
Led by Dr. Aivee Teo as its president and medical director, the Aivee Clinic is one of the leading dermatological and aesthetic clinics in the Philippines. Established by Dr. Aivee Teo alongside Dr. Z Teo, the Aivee Clinic, nearing its 15th year, continues to lead the way for treatment innovations and technology.
According to Dr. Aivee Teo, a dermatologist and expert in injectable fillers, “At the end of the day, we really want to introduce new treatments. This is really an evolving field, there is something always new to discover. We always want to be at the forefront of technology, that’s why we’re so excited today!”
