The New Philippine President And Kris Aquino

Everyone thinks it's a big deal that Noynoy Aquino, soon-to-be proclaimed Philippine President is remotely related to the infamous mouth - Kris Aquino.

Everywhere on Facebook, Kris Aquino is being bashed after she promised to leave the country should her brother win. In fact I think she has forced herself to bow out of The Buzz and SNN as a result of her mouthing off.

Here's a clip from Manila Bulletin article on Kris Aquino being First Lady? Now that's a little silly isn't it? Apparently Kris gave up her showbiz career for it? Ridiculous!

“Her decision’s okay,” said Sen. Aquino when asked about Kris’ soft departure from show business during an interview after the Holy Mass of thanksgiving joined by his campaign volunteers in Quezon City last Thursday night.

But the apparent successor to Malacañang was quick to clarify that his sister’s decision to move away from show business is not a confirmation of her taking the role of First Lady.

“She’s (Kris is) not going to be the First Lady. I have a contract with my sisters that once I’m proclaimed, they will return to their respective private lives,” the 50-year-old bachelor said.

Earlier, Kris said she has come to the decision of giving up hosting “The Buzz” and “Showbiz News Ngayon” after deliberating on it with her sisters, Ballsy Aquino-Cruz, Pinky Aquino-Abellada, and Viel Aquino-Dee.

Kris said she will minimize her television appearance “for Noynoy’s sake," but will keep her stints in her daily primetime soap opera and a talent search program.

When asked if he intends to have a First Lady, Noynoy was hawkish. “I recognize that being married can inspire me, but I am at the same time cognizant of possibly making the wrong choice. Getting married then will only be a heavy burden,” he said.

Rustom Padilla - Dead, Bebe Gandanghari Lives!

Wow have you heard? The famous Filipino actor Rustom Padilla is dead! Yep he died and rose again as Bebe Gandanghari! It's not joke. He became one of the first and one of the most famous (or is it infamous?) transvestites in the Philippines

There are of course multiple and varied responses. Some are aghast while some have grown to accept him. It is kind of hard to swallow at first since he was a rather good-looking matinee idol during his hay-day. He was even married to one of the most beautiful faces in Philippine cinema - yep I consider Carmina Villaruel very beautiful. Only to find out that perhaps he married her because he wanted to copy HER look.

Just look at him as a "her" she's gorgeous though I don't deny that. Just a little awkward I think. This is Bebe Gandanghari on the set of The Buzz. He still sounds male so that's a little weird but looks very female now




If you're interested, you should look at this. It's like seeing a guy come into being only to realize he wasn't a guy but a girl! Weird!

Heart Evangelista And Jericho Rosales Break-up On National Television

It was sad the way Heart Evangelista and ex-boyfriend Jericho Rosales broke up on national television just last week.

Jericho Rosales was interviewed by Boy Abunda on The Buzz while Heart Evangelista was on the GMA counterpart. Forgot the name of their show - sorry. Star Patrol?

Anyway it was just this big mess with both parties shedding tears. Heart claims there was a third party - the hottie co-stars of Jericho's new series, while Jericho claims he has no clue what she's talking about and how they even broke up. Rumors went around that their relationship didn't "click" and that they were bringing each other down. True enough, they weren't a love team - networks shouldn't have pushed their team-up on the public

What a mess really. Everyone breaks up and that should be a natural progression of relationships but to do it on national television is just crass. The television networks are just milking their popularity for all that their worth.
