Veteran actress Janice Jurado revealed an important detail about the last moments of the one and only ‘Da King of Philippine movies’ Fernando Poe Jr.

It can be recalled that Poe passed away seven months after his controversial defeat in the 2004 elections against former President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo.

According to Jurado who claimed to have a relationship with FPJ said that the late action star was talking to someone on the phone before collapsing.

She said that they were celebrating when FPJ suddenly passed out when he was informed about something.

“Kasi victory noon akala namin panalo na siya. Nandoon kami sa kanyang FPJ Compound. Pagka-receive niya ng call, hinawakan niya ‘yung batok niya. Alam namin panalo na siya eh. Celebration na ‘yun eh, nag-iinuman. Tapos iniikutan niya kaming lahat. Tapos sabi nung ano, ‘Bossing mayroon pong phone call’,” she said.

“First time ko siyang narinig nagmura tapos hawakan niya ‘yung batok niya… collapsed. Bumagsak na,” she added.

People still believed that the result of the election in 2004 was rigged and the speculations were fueled when a conversation between Arroyo and a Commission on Elections (COMELEC) official had been leaked to the media.

The conversation was dubbed as ‘Hello Garci’ and it forced Arroyo to apologize to the public, but never admitted that she asked COMELEC to manipulate the result of the elections.

Motivational Speaker Rendon Labador sadly announced that his appeal to reinstate his account on TikTok had been rejected.

In his Facebook post, Rendon showed the message sent to him by TikTok, saying that he really committed things that were against the community guidelines of the platform.

“We’ve reviewed your appeal and found that your account violates our Community Guidelines and cannot be restored. Your account has been permanently banned and you can no longer access TikTok,” the company said.

Rendon slammed the said decision and insisted that he only wanted to spread the truth to the public.

“TIKTOK AYAW NINYONG MARINIG ANG KATOTOHANAN??? Pag hindi ako nakabalik sa tiktok, magiging habang buhay na t*ng* ang mga users ninyo,” said Rendon.

“TikTok Philippines [Philippine Flag Emoji] Pangalawang “APPEAL” rejected parin?[Facepalm Emoji] Ano ang masasabi ninyo sa desisyon ng tiktok? TAMA BA O MALI???” he added.

Rendon was hoping that TikTok would still reconsider his appeal since he only sought to educate the users of the social media platform.

“Sana mabasa ni tiktok ang mga comments dito para ma realize nila na mali ang desisyon nila!” he stated.

Rendon also insisted that some people wanted to silence him because he was making an effort to make the netizens smarter.

“Gusto nila ako patahimikin kasi ayaw nila kayong matuto. Kung tatalino kasi kayo hindi na nila kayo mauuto,” he remarked.

It can be recalled that TikTok banned Rendon who’s known for making attention-seeking messages on social media.

He was also being criticized for his comments against popular celebrities.

Kapuso journalist Emil Sumangil was dubbed by some netizens as the next Mike Enriquez since he became the replacement for the late broadcaster on 24 Oras.

In an interview last May by Manila Bulletin, Sumangil shared some information about his career as a journalist during the launch of his public service program ‘Resibo: Walang Lusot ang May Atraso’ which was believed to have the same theme as ‘Imbestigador’ of Enriquez.

He also answered the comments from some netizens that he was being trained as the one who would follow in the footsteps of Enriquez who passed away last August 29.

Sumangil believed that no one could replace Enriquez.

“Parang suntok sa buwan. Hindi po yata natin kayang pantayan or higitan si Mike Enriquez. Binigyan po ako ng platform ng GMA para ipakita ko naman yung aking kakayahan. Dito ko pagsusumikapan ibigay ang aking nalalaman kung paano ako makakatulong sa Diyos at bayan,” he said.

“Ginagawa po namin ang aming trabaho na walang halong personal interest. Ang storyang gagawin po namin ay hindi para sa amin kundi para sa taong bayan para makapaghatid ng public service.” he added.

Because of the passing of Enriquez, netizens were waiting if Sumangil would become the next host of Imbestigador, or if the popular public service program would be replaced by another show by the latter.

Veteran showbiz columnist Jobert Sucaldito and actress Snooky Serna couldn’t hide their disappointment towards Pura Luka Vega.

On Snooky’s vlog, Jobert talked about his opinion on the controversial drag queen who performed ‘Ama Namin’ while wearing a costume of the Black Nazarene.

Jobert, who claimed that he was a ‘devout follower’ of the Catholic Church, expressed his disappointment towards Pura, saying that he wanted to pull the hair of the artist.

Meanwhile, Snooky also said that her blood pressure rose after she watched the performance of Pura.

“I hope it doesn’t happen again,” Jobert said. “Because you know, I’m a very devout Catholic kasi ako.. Gusto kitang sabunutan actually,” 

“Gusto kong sabunutan kasi nga that is like using the Lord or the God in vain.. I hope na maisip mo ito, though ang katwiran mo ay wala kang intensyon paglaruan, pero please maraming bagay na pwedeng gawin, wag ito,” he added.

Snooky was also hoping that Pura would change his ways.

“I hope na in your lifetime, [you] feel that love and forgiveness of God in your life.. Because you’re missing out a lot if you don’t because God.. he’s in your life, you just don’t realize it or acknowledge it,” she said.

As of writing, Pura has yet to give response to Jobert and Snooky.

Chot Reyes, inako ang responsibilidad sa pagkatalo ng Gilas sa FIBA World Cup: “This was a time for us to win, to execute the learning”

Gilas Pilipinas Coach Chot Reyes took full responsibility for the disastrous performance of the Philippine National Basketball team at the FIBA World Cup.

It can be recalled that despite being one of the hosts of FIBA and the full support of the Filipino crowd, Gilas Pilipinas remained winless in all of their games.

Experts considered it the poorest performance of the Philippine Basketball team for decades.

During a press conference, the apologetic coach said that they’re supposed to show the result of their ‘learning experiences’ during the World Cup.

“I’ve already said I’m really sorry that we were not able to deliver and I take full accountability. I take full responsibility,” said Reyes.

“This was a time for us to win, to execute the learning. It was supposed to happen way back. This was a time for us to win and execute and like I said, we didn’t get the job done,” he added.

He also admitted that the morale of his players was so low but they still need to prepare for their final match against China.

“Our job is to get everyone ready now for the next game, and that has to start with our mindset and our emotional hearts as well. We just like to say that as difficult and as disappointing the campaign has been so far, I’m still very proud of the effort,” he said.

Reyes said that the decision to remove him as Gilas coach was up to the Samahang Basketbol ng Pilipinas (SBP) chaired by Manny V. Pangilinan.

 

Talo pero jackpot! Sweldo ng mga player ng Gilas na lumaban sa FIBA World Cup, ibinunyag

Despite its disastrous performance during the FIBA World Cup 2023, it seems that the players who represented the Philippines were still expected to receive a fat paycheck.

According to several reports, NBA Player Jordan Clarkson, who also plays for Gilas was earning around P9.5-M a day.

“Sabi sa akin ng aking ‘bubwit’, pumapatak na nasa close to P9 million a day, baka ‘yung per day na iyon ay ‘yung pagdating niya sa Pilipinas,” basketball coach Gerry Esplana said.

Another report posted by Full Court disclosed that Clarkson received a total of P56,781,000 to represent the country, while the 7′ 2″ player Kai Sotto was paid P11,356,200.

However, even the highest amount of money didn’t change the outcome of Gilas’ games and they’re now currently suffering from a 0-4 result.

They’re also considered one of the poorest performers during the FIBA World Cup even if they hosted the tournament.

Even Nesthy Petecio, one of the medalists last Olympics couldn’t hide his envy after reading the paycheck received by Clarkson and Sotto.

“Sana all,” said Petecio.

It can be recalled that Petecio was one of the athletes who pushed the government to increase its funding for its national athletes.

KC Concepcion confirmed that she unfollowed her stepfather Kiko Pangilinan and half-sister Frankie Pangilinan to maintain her peace of mind.

In an interview with Cristy Fermin, KC said that there was a ‘complication’ for her to be part of a blended family.

She also insisted that there was nothing wrong with unfollowing Kiko and Frankie, explaining that she only wanted to take care of her mental health.

“Hindi naman po masama na magkaroon ng time na meron kayong ina-unfollow, or meron kayong ipa-follow. Mahirap lang po talaga kapag showbiz po yung family, talagang lahat po pinupuna po,” she said.

“Ako kasi, I think, yung sa akin is more of, like I said, may mga complicated po talaga pagdating sa blended family. Meron din po talagang mga times na hindi perfect, hindi po kami perpekto. And hindi po lagi kailangang perfect.

“So, wala naman po akong gustong ikuwento pa apart from the fact na, ako, I just want peace of mind, I want to be happy. I want my family to be happy. Ang gusto ko lang maging light, masaya, ayoko ng maraming drama, ayoko ng maraming hindi… yung forgiveness kasi sa family, important din yun siguro para maging okay yung takbo ng relationship ng lahat.” 

KC also clarified that she made an effort to be close to her half-siblings.

“Kahit po yung mga half-sister ko na hindi ko na po kasama sa bahay, pinipilit kong maging close kami — from Garie to Chloe to Frankie to Miel to Miguel to Samantha to Savannah. Very close po ako sa mga half-sister at half-brother ko,” she said.

“I just think na may mga moments na wala na akong control, mas gugustuhin ko pong i-keep ang aking peace of mind. Kasi po 30s na rin po ako, di na po ako bata. So, may mga panahon din po na parang isipin ko muna yung mental health ko, kung ano yung makakabuti sa peace of mind ko kahit ano pa yan, mas uunahin ko po muna yun,” she added.

As of writing, Kiko and Frankie have yet to give a response on the issue.

The Supreme Court of the Philippines confirmed that Willie Gonzales, the former cop who went viral after his confrontation with a cyclist was their employee.

In a statement released by the highest court, they confirmed that Gonzales was a ‘co-terminus’ staff of Associate Justice Ricardo Rosario.

However, when the incident went viral on social media, Rosario quickly removed Gonzales.

“This is to notify the public that Mr. Wilfredo Gonzales was a coterminous employee of the Office of Associate Justice Ricardo R. Rosario. His employment was immediately terminated on August 27, 2023, upon discovery of the incident,” the SC said in a statement.

“Justice Rosario does not condone any form of violence or abusive behavior,” they added.

It can be recalled that Gonzales was suspected to be one of the employees of the Department of Justice (DOJ), but Sec. Boying Remulla denied the rumors.

Meanwhile, there was a possibility that Gonzales would not be charged for the incident as the cyclist already said that they already settled his issues with the former cop.

“Wala pong money involved dyan dahil di mababayaran ng kahit anong bagay o pera yung stress na dinulot nyan sa akin sa pamilya ko lalo na sa mga anak ko di ako natatakot o tinakot man desisyon ko po na di na magsampa ng kaso para sa katahimikan ng pamilya ko at sana igalang po nila ‘yun,” the cyclist stated.
