Ilang turista, dismayado matapos ipasara ang isang isla sa Camiguin para umano kay Julia Barretto

Several tourists openly called out the tourism office of Camiguin Island and actress Julia Barretto for ruining their vacation day last weekend.

In a Facebook post, Nikka Kho said they were supposed to visit Mantigue Island with other tourists last weekend when they were informed that the place was closed due to a celebrity shoot.

According to her, there was no prior announcement about the said photo shoot of the celebrity, who eventually turned out to be Julia Barretto.

“We were told the island would reopen at 12 PM, so we rushed to make it in time. Upon arrival, we found frustrated tourists waiting, including those who had flights to catch. Despite assurances, the shoot extended past 1 PM, forcing many to cancel or reschedule their plans,” said Kho.

“To the LGU of Camiguin, prioritizing a single celebrity over numerous paying tourists is unacceptable. If closures are necessary, proper advance notice should be given—at least a week prior—to prevent unnecessary inconvenience,” she added.

She also addressed Julia’s camp, saying that they shouldn’t close down an entire island, calling their action selfish and entitled.

“To Julia Barretto and your team, while we respect your work, shutting down an entire public island for hours with no regard for others is selfish and entitled. If efficiency mattered, you could have started earlier instead of occupying Mantigue Island at peak hours. Instead of gaining admiration, you turned potential fans into critics,” she said.

As of writing, the LGU of Camiguin Island and Julia have yet to give any response to the complaints they received from the tourists.

Mantigue Island is one of Camiguin’s most popular tourist spots due to its pristine waters and white sand.

Mga pages pagmamay-ari ni PBBM at ng ilang government agencies, nakatago na ang react

Social media pages owned by several government agencies, including the official page of President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr on Facebook, appeared to hide their number of posts and reactions.

The changes happened several days ago after President Marcos received hundreds of thousands of laughs on his posts.

One of his posts even reached more than 660,000 laugh reacts from the netizens.

However, when people would try to recheck the post, they would only see the most type of reaction clicked by the netizens.

The said changes could also be noticed on other government-owned pages like Rady Pilipinas.

There is no explanation yet for why the government decided to censor the number of reactions it was receiving on Facebook.

Facebook gave business pages and users the option to hide their reactions.

The main reason why Facebook decided to give this option to its users was to prevent them from being pressured or affected by the number of reactions they were receiving.

 

Coco Martin, nangako na ipapagamot at bibigyan ng trabaho sa Batang Quiapo si Katherine Luna

Actor Coco Martin vowed to help his ex-girlfriend Katherine Luna, ending many years of feud between them.

Last month, Katherine was featured on Julius Babao’s online program, where the actress publicly apologized to Coco for their past issues.

Katherine also revealed her condition in her left, which forced her to hide it.

It can be recalled that Katherine claimed several times that she had a child with Coco, which was proven to be false by a DNA test.

“Sa kabila ng mga nangyari saka sa mga isyu sa amin, masaya ako para sa kanya. Deserve niya yon dahil nung nasa pa-indie-indie pa lang siya, pinush niya yun. Pinursige niya yon para makarating sa tuktok. Yun yung taong pursigido talaga sa buhay, determinado,” she said.

“Sana balang-araw mapatawad mo ako,” she added.

In response, Coco said that he would try to help his ex-girlfriend, hoping that it would help her support her children.

“Kukunin ko siya sa Batang Quiapo kahit hindi pa ayos ang mata niya para magkaroon siya agad ng trabaho at mas matuloy niyang maayos ang kaniyang buhay para sa mga bata. Pero sana maipangako niya sa akin na aayusin niya ang buhay niya at hindi na siya babalik sa dating bisyo,” said Coco.

“Pwede akong maghanap kung saan siya pwedeng ipa-opera ang mga mata niya kung papayag siya,” he added.

As of writing, Katherine has yet to give her response to Coco’s gesture.

Eric Vijandre, pinagsasapak umano ang kanyang kapatid sa harap ng kanilang pamilya

San Juan city councilor and actor Eric Vijandre was facing criticism on social media after his sister-in-law accused the public official of smacking down his brother, Erwin Vijandre, during New Year’s Eve.

Erwin revealed the incident after Ervic publicly greeted him with a happy birthday on his social media, calling out his brother for pretending that nothing disastrous had happened between them several months ago.

“Hindi mo alam kung gaano trauma ginawa mo sa pamilya ko? Lalo na sa mga anak ko… Hanggang ngayon binabangungot mga bata sa kawalanghiyaan mo!” Erwin told Ervic.

Erwin’s wife, Jaye Vijandre, then revealed the full details about the confrontation, saying that they tried to keep their silence for many months to protect Erwin’s image as a public official.

“We kept quiet eventhough he never asked how Erwin was. He ONLY said sorry when we were at the police station and hall of justice, asking Erwin to not press charges on him. Erwin gave him the favor and still protected his ‘good’ image,” said Jaye.

However, they couldn’t resist the ‘hypocrisy’ of Ervic after the latter greeted his brother like nothing happened.

“All of our children were there and they witnessed how he tried to end Erwin’s life,” she said.

“Our children up to now are having nightmares and still scared. They wouldn’t want to go back to Philippines anymore,” she added.

As of writing, Ervic have yet to give any response to the post made by his brother and sister-in-law.

Raquel also said that she would accept all the criticism against her.

“Kwento niyo yan malamang masaka ako diyan. Pero hindi ko alam ang kwento na ‘yan. Sanay na akong tawaging masama, kung yan ba ikakasaya niyo. Tanggap ko na ang pangalan kong Evil Queen. Basta ako alam ko sa sarili kong kwento pero di ko na isasalibro dahil ayoko ng may mapasama at madagdagan ang mga evil,” she stated.

It can be recalled that Jake accused his mother of using his own money without authorization.

Jake Zyrus, ilang beses umanong nakaranas ng pananamantala sa kanyang tiyuhin

Jake Zyrus made a huge revelation against his uncle in his book I Am Jake.

In his book, Jake revealed that his uncle started to take advantage of him when he was six years old and claimed that the incident was repeated several times.

“I was playing in the living room while he drew. He looked up from the sketches he was making and called me over. “Come here. I’ll draw you,” he said.

“Even at that age, my instincs told me something bad was going to happen. But I had no choice but to follow him. As he drew me, my mind quickly shifted to denial. My uncle then asked me to come with him to his room. We were going to sleep, he told me. Even if I had said no, I was so small and helpless. All he had to do was pick me up.

“Of course we didn’t sleep. He lay behind me, spooned me, and started touching me all over,” he stated.

The incident reached its peak when his uncle attempted to enter him.

“The only reason he didn’t succeed was because it was physically impossible. I was a tiny six-year-old girl,” he said.

Jake said that he told his mother about the incident fifteen years later, but the latter didn’t believe him.

“She called my uncle up and asked if my accusations were true. Of course he denied it, so Mommy got mad at me instead. She told me I had a lot of nerve to be making up stories about the old man,” he said.

As of writing, Raquel has yet to give her direct response to Jake’s book.

Jake Zyrus, ibinahagi kung paano siya ginatasan ng kanyang nanay

Jake Zyrus, formerly Charice Pempengco made a massive revelation about his life in his book, I AM JAKE.

In his book, Jake revealed that he was not independent when it comes to finances during the peak of his career, saying that he only discovered the money he earned during his tours when he met his accountant.

According to Jake, he reached his highest net worth of $16,000,000 or 927,840,000 pesos at one time.

“But when you’re a celebrity, people expect to find you decked in designer clothes all the time. Imagine how I felt when as an adult who should be able to handle my own moneny, I met my accountant for the first time and learned that when I went on tour, I could earn up to $600,000. When I sang at private events, I could get up to $300,000. Endorsement in States earned me up to $1,000,000. At one point, my net worth was $16,000,000,” he wrote.

Jake claimed that he never enjoyed the money he earned as his mother, Raquel Pempengco, was allegedly controlling his finances.

The singer said that he saw properties being bought using his money, but not named under him.

“I’m not worth $16,000,000 anymore, but I assure you, I am richer than Charice. She only knew how much she was worth, but she never actually got to touch or enjoy her earnings. Sure, I saw houses being built and cars being bought using my money, but I was always told they weren’t mine,” he stated.

“If I needed to use one of our cars, I had to ask permission from my mother. Sometimes, she would refuse my request. It’s only that I finally know what it’s like to have a house under my name and a car I can use anytime I wish,” he added.

As of writing, Raquel has yet to give any response to the book published by Jake.
