Veteran actor John Regala couldn’t hide his disappointment after his colleagues in showbusiness ignored his request for financial help.

In his open letter, he asked his former friends in showbiz to help him because he was required to undergo an operation.

He also reminded his former colleagues about his contribution in the showbiz industry and he was hoping that they still remembered it.

“Mahal kung mga kapatid sa industria. Ito’y bukas na liham sanay ma unawaan niyo ang nilalaman ng liham na ito. Mahigit tatlong dekada naring akong artista at ng bigay ako ng kasiyahan at karangalan sa industria ng pilikula. Nag bigay karangalan sa pelikulang pilipino marami naring akong ibahagi sa mga bida at kuntrabida man ng pinilakang tabing . Kaya ako nmn po ang na ngangailangan po sa ngayon sana po wag namn akon ipahiya sa hihilingin sa inyo .ngayon namn po ako humingi ng tulong sa ating guild.” John said.

According to him, he was required to be treated as soon as possible.

“Ayaw ko po pumanaw na inutil lalo na sa mga harapan ng mga taong akala ko ay habang buhay kung makakasama.bigyan niyo namm ako kunting dignidad ako’y nag susumamo don bilang john regala karapatdapat nmn akong sa respetong yan,” he said.

However, it seems that the actor fail to get the attention of the showbiz community this time.

“Mga kapatid ko sa industriya ngaun ko napatunayan na wala kayong pag ibig sa akin,” he stated.

Fortunately, John said that the operation still went through despite the lack of financial help.

It can be remembered that several showbiz personalities helped John in the past but it also quickly ended because of the accusations that the veteran actor was just using the money he was getting on vices.

A well-known pediatrician and content creator gave advice to two-time Olympic gold medalist Carlos Yulo.

It can be recalled that Carlos refused to contact his family because of a feud that started with money.

Carlos accused his parents of pocketing the money he received from international competitions without authorization.

In his Facebook post, Dr. Richard Mata said that while he understood Carlos’ situation, the gymnast could have expressed his disappointment towards his parents in other ways.

“I hope he understands that he can express his disappointment in other ways, not just withholding giving to his poor family,” said Mata.

He also believed that there was nothing wrong if Carlos decided to share his blessings with his family.

“Pwede naman wala munang drama ng forgive and forget, but he can just transfer a good blessing kasi pamilya pa rin nya yun,” he said.

“SOP yan, charity begins at home. Wag munang magbigay sa iba, unahin muna sa pamilya,” he added.

As of writing, the post has already received thousands of reactions and comments of approval from the netizens.

Some of them believed that Carlos would gain good publicity if he decided to portray himself as a good son to his parents.

Singer Gerald Santos finally disclosed the identity of the youngest victim of former GMA musical director Danny Tan.

In his vlog, Gerald disclosed that former Sugarpop member Enzo Almario admitted that Tan also took advantage of him when he was 12 years old.

Sugarpop was a group consisting of Rita Daniela, Julie Anne, San Jose, Vanessa Rangadhol Cholo Bismonte, and Enzo.

According to Enzo, he realized that he should also reveal his story after watching the bravery of Gerald and Sandro Muhlach.

“Hindi na po makayanan ng kanyang konsensya na hahayaan niya lamang ‘yung mga nangyayaring ganito. So ako po ay nagpasalamat talaga sa kanya dahil siya ay lumantad at nagbigay ng testimony,” aniya.

Enzao said that the incident happened in 2008.

“Nagkaroon ako ng lakas ng loob to share my experience, ‘yung madilim na experience na to para din matuldukan na ‘yung trauma na na-experience natin,” Enzo said.

Until today, Tan has been silent about the accusations against him.

The ride-hailing community was hunting an alleged Sangguniang Kabataan member in Manila.

Yesterday, foreign streamer lShowSpeed, visited the Philippines and toured some popular places in Metro Manila.

Netizens also noticed a man wearing a gray shirt who consistently followed him from Manila to Bonifacio Global City.

To reach BGC, Speed used a ride-hailing app to quickly travel from his final destination while being followed by the said SK Member.

Before the end of his stream, Speed could be seen giving money to the man after he claimed that he knew the rider personally.

However, in a social media post, one of the riders who drove Speed confirmed that they never received any money from the said individual.

Fortunately, Speed’s coordinator was aware of the situation and vowed to pay the riders.

It can be recalled that Speed’s visit to the Philippines quickly captured the attention of thousands of fans and was heavily covered by the media.

It’s not yet known how long Speed would stay in the country as he was expected to meet some of his idols, including Manny Pacquiao.

According to Angelica, her participation in their pageant might help her overcome her problems amid the feud with her son.

Erika also admitted that she understood Angelica’s current situation.

“I think na naging gymnast yung mga anak niya because naghirap din siya for it. She surely sacrificed a lot of things para ma-suportahan lahat ng anak niya. And I believe in the goodness and kindness of motherhood,” she said.

“So my advice to Miss Angelica Yulo is to love yourself. Stop crying. Always smile,” she added.

Aside from Angelica, Erika also welcomed all mothers and wives to join the event.

She said that even ordinary people could join the pageant as they wanted to push for women’s empowerment.

The lawyer of Sonshine Media Network International (SMNI) urged the netizens to boycott a company known for selling their iconic Lechon Manok.

In a Facebook post, Atty. Mark Tolentino, one of the lawyers of SMNI and Kingdom of Jesus Christ (KOJC) leader Pastor Apollo Quiboloy, called out the said company for using the latter for their social media advertisement.

The advertisement showed a photo of Quiboloy taken after the government presented him to the press following his arrest.

Tolentino said that the company must apologize, or else they would file charges against them for allegedly making fun of the pastor.

“Boycott natin ang Chooks-to-Go! This is an Irresponsible and unethical advertisement and considered as a Cybercrime! Chooks-to-Go, Apologize or face a suit!” said Tolentino.

The advertisement has already been deleted from social media.

Tolentino’s post received mixed reactions from the netizens; some of them said that there was nothing wrong with the advertisement, while others believed that the company would not delete it if they didn’t see anything unethical with the photo.

As of this writing, the company has yet to release a statement on the boycott it is facing.

It’s Showtime host Ryan Bang gave friendly advice to his fans, especially those belonging to Generation Z.

In an interview with Bella Padilla, Ryan shared how he learned to love and respect his parents, which he believed was one of the secrets to why blessings kept coming to his life.

“Always listen to your parents. Kasi when I was 14, I thought many people cared about me. But they really don’t care about other people eh. Who really cares about you is your family and parents lang. No one really cares about you that much,” said Ryan.

“You pray to God, and you listen to your parents. That’s my most secret. And when you grow old, you have to honor your parents para i-bless ka ni Lord. Yun lang naman yun eh. Yun yung payo ko sa mga kabataan,” he added.

Ryan went viral on social media because of his timely advice, which netizens believed could be applied now amid the issue being faced by two-time Olympic gold medalist Carlos Yulo.

It can be recalled that the Filipino gymnast was facing criticism on social media after he expressed his disappointment to his parents, which ended for them not talking or seeing each other.

A lawyer gave his opinion amid the issue between a pet owner and a posh restaurant in Tagaytay.

It can be recalled that Balay Dako in Tagaytay was facing criticism on social media after a customer complained about how the restaurant management barred his Aspin pet, Yoda’ from entering the establishment.

The customer received support on social media, especially from the Animal Rights group.

However, Atty. Wilfredo Garrido said that restaurants should not give access to pets in the first place and called the said practice unsanitary.

“Enough of these self-entitled folks who insist in bringing their pets inside restaurants.  We don’t want to eat beside your dogs or cats or what call your “fur babies”. Or snakes or monkeys, for that matter. It’s simply unsanitary,” said Garrido.

“We don’t want to dine out with fur floating around or something slobbering or barking in the nearby tables. Or smelling something unpalatable. Or using plates or utensils that might have been touched in the slightest by the paws or bodily fluids of these critters. Your place is worse than a hospital ward. It’s okay to bring your pets into the corridors. Or hallways. Or churches, even. Or inside hospital wards. But inside eating places, no effing way,” he added.

He also believed that food establishments allowing customers with dogs must  not pass any sanitary inspection.

Garrido’s post has already received hundreds of reactions as of writing.
