Wency Cornejo revealed that his mother Mel Tiangco has been tried to convince by some individuals several times to enter politics.
The 55-year-old OPM artist, best known for being the vocalist of AfterImage said that his 67-year-old mother refused the offers because the well-known journalist believed that politics is going to give her stress.
“It’s very, very magulo, e, she says. Especially at her age, she doesn’t want to get stressed out. And kahit kami as her children, ayaw din namin ma-stress nanay namin. At her age, she needs to be resting and just enjoying the fruits of her labor.” Cornejo explained.
Despite having politician relatives like Navotas Mayor John Tiangco and Rep. Toby Tiangco, Cornejo also refused to join politics.
According to Cornejo, he’s not the type of person who knows how to handle things diplomatically.
“No, definitely not me. I have no patience—pangit man pakinggan ‘to—I don’t like dealing with people.” he said.
It can be recalled that Cornejo openly supported the BBM-Sara tandem in last election and he even criticized his friends for forcing him to support other candidates.
“Why can’t people just accept that the reality of a person depends on where his life experience is at the moment? A 6 may look like a 9 depending on what angle you’re looking at it from. Vote and campaign for who you want but please mga kaibigan, be human beings and not rabid, wild animals while you’re at it. This goes for everybody. Lahat tayo are guilty of being this way.” the OPM icon said.
