Motivational Speaker Rendon Labador made a rare public apology to television hosts Michael V, Vice Ganda, and Ion Perez after he threw several criticisms against them.

In an interview with talent manager Ogie Diaz, Labador said that he would apologize if the three popular hosts were unhappy with the negative messages he posted about them.

It can be remembered that Labador called Michael ‘unpopular,’ while he labeled Vice and Ion as ‘animals‘ in one of his posts.

According to Rendon, the removal of his social media accounts made him realize many things.

He was still hoping that Michael, Vice, and Ion would help him to promote his advocacy for a better Philippines.

“Im trying to be perfect. Ngayon naman nakikinig na ako. Marami akong opportunities. Marami naman akong nasaktan din naman talaga. Yun din naman yung regret ko talaga. I’m trying to be better,” said Rendon.

“So, kung nasaktan ko man kayo– kay Vice, Ion, lahat ng artista, Michael V.– I’m apologizing. Wala akong masamang intensyon sa inyo, Hindi ko kayo dini-discredit. I’m thankful sa mga nagawa ninyo. Ang gusto ko lang matulungan, magising. Sana makasama ko kayo sa pagbago ng Pilipinas,” he added.

As of writing, Michael, Vice, or Ion have yet to give any response to the apology made by Rendon for them.

Rendon Labador claimed that the people behind FPJ’s Batang Quiapo offered him a role.

In an interview with Ogie Diaz, Rendon said he was supposed to take the role Vandolph Quizon is currently playing.

If Rendon accepted the role, he would become one of the show’s antagonists as part of the ‘Batang Divisoria,’ the nemesis of Coco’s group.

However, Rendon said that the negotiation between him and Batang Quiapo team failed.

“January palang nag-offer na sila, so hindi nagkasundo,” said Rendon.

He also denied that his criticism against Coco was related to the failed negotiation between him and the Batang Quiapo team.

“Nauna ‘yung offer, tapos pumutok ‘yung issue, March na, so may nagreklamong isang vendor so nag-step up ako para boses ng bayan, negosyante din ako eh. Ayokong maabala ‘yung mga tao na ang liit na nga ng kinikita tapos maabala ka pa,” he stated.

It can be recalled that Coco admitted that they made an offer to Rendon.

Rendon then disclosed why the negotiation between him and Batang Quiapo failed.

“Yes, January palang nakikipag negotiate na sila saakin para mabigyan ako ng role sa BATANG QUIAPO. Totoo yan! Nag rerequest ako ng meeting sakanila para maayos ang collaboration.” Rendon said.

“Hindi sila corporate kausap kaya hindi namin masyado binigyan ng pansin.

“Nag follow up sila ng second time at gusto daw nila ako i include, tinawagan namin sila at nakausap. Wala silang maayos na direction sa role na offer pati sa story hindi organized, kaya hindi na ulit namin pinansin.”

Content creator and artist Toni Fowler released a statement after being charged by the Kapisanan ng Social Media Broadcasters ng Pilipinas (KSMBPI).

It can be recalled that the KSMBPI, which advocated responsible content creation, filed several charges against Fowler due to the alleged incident acts performed by the influencer on her music video ‘KPL.’

Atty. Mark Tolentino, the legal counsel of KSMBPI, said that Fowler should be held responsible for the music video she published.

However, Fowler believed that KSMBPI had no right to control the contents she created.

“Para sa KSMBPI, nais kong punahin at sagutin ang kasinunglingan ninyo sa media,” said Fowler. “Wala kayong puwang para sabihan at pagbawalan ako. Hindi ninyo lugar ang pagbawalan ang mga babaeng gaya ko —gaya ng pagbabawal ninyo sa aming kilos, pananamit, pati na rin sa pakikipag-usap,” she added.

Fowler also insisted that they ensure during the video production that they were not committing something against the law.

She also vowed to face the charges filed by the group against her.

“Sa huli, gusto kong sabihin sa inyo na matapang kong haharapin ang mga kasong inihain ninyo laban sa akin dahil kahit na ano pa ang itawag ninyo sa akin, taas noo ko itong haharapin at sasabihing ako’y tahimik lang sa umpisa, pero marunong akong lumaban kahit di ninyo ako pilitin,” she said.

Eat Bulaga host Paolo Contis insisted that he never blamed anybody for what happened to his past relationships.

In an interview with Kiray Celis, the two talked about cheating in a relationship.

“Lahat pala ng mga manloloko, isa lang ang reason. Yung mga manloloko, yung mga partner nila yung sisisihin. Ikaw yung pagmumukhaing masama. Na-try mo ba yun?” said Paolo.

Paolo responded, saying that he was not blaming anyone for his faults but believed it was right for people to admit their mistakes.

“Ako, to be honest, never akong nanisi sa mga mali ko. Ang sakin lang, kung may ginawa kang masama, be man enough to admit it. Say sorry, and then try to change for the better,” the controversial actor stated.

It can be recalled that Paolo was being accused of cheating on his former partners, including LJ Reyes.

Last year, Paolo went viral after he was spotted having moments with actress Yen Santos, sparking rumors that the latter was why the actor and LJ ended their relationship.

Paolo later admitted that he was dating Yen, whom he first met at a movie project.

However, the actor clarified that he was not really in good terms with LJ even before he met Yen.

“Hindi. Somehow, medyo matagal na kaming hindi okay ni LJ pero we were together officially. Napapadalas ‘yung away,” he stated.

“One of my biggest mistakes was hindi ko inalala ‘yung mental health. Isa ‘yan sa feeling ko simula ng downfall namin. Hindi ko inisip ‘yun. Plus ‘yung pag-didiskarte ko ng sarili ko na hindi ko na iniinform sa kanya ‘yung mga bagay-bagay, which led to bigger problems. I won’t divulge na sa isyu na ‘yun. Eventually it piled up. Again, hindi kami nag-uusap nang maayos,” he added.

It’s Showtime fans asked the government to finally abolish the Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB) after the agency denied the Motion for Reconsideration filed by the noontime show to appeal the 12-day suspension imposed against them.

It can be recalled that It’s Showtime received a suspension after MTRCB found that the acts done by Vice Ganda and Ion Perez, who went viral after eating a cake in front of several children during one of their segments, Isip Bata on July 25, 2023.

The suspension was delayed after It’s Showtime attempted to appeal the decision. However, on September 28, MTRCB finally rejected the Motion and ordered the suspension of the noontime show.

The decision disappointed many fans who have already criticized MTRCB’s head, Lala Sotto, for several weeks.

The topic #AbolishMTRCB trended on social media platform X.

According to some netizens, it was already the right time for the government to abolish MTRCB, saying that the agency was not fair and against healthy competition as Sotto was the daughter of E.A.T. host Tito Sotto, one of It’s Showtime’s competitors.

“Dapat lahat ng mag cocomment mag hashtag #AbolishMTRCB wala din naman kwenta tong agency na to. Waste of money lang gingugugol dito. Ibigay na lang sa mga mahihirap pera nakalaan dito. #AbolishMTRCB,” netizen Rub said.

“Can someone please start a signature campaign to abolish MTRCB, sayang pera ng bayan sa mga moralistang imoral na yan #AbolishMTRCB #LalaSottoResign,” netizen Pong commented.

Meanwhile, Sotto said that she was ‘unbothered‘ by the comments she was receiving.

Former child actor Jiro Manio became a controversial figure in the past after he attempted to return to showbiz with the help of actress Ai-Ai delas Alas.

It can be recalled that Jiro went viral in 2015 after Ai-Ai tried to help her recover from his vices and put him under a rehabilitation program.

However, after several attempts at rehabilitation, Jiro still committed several controversial acts that made Ai-Ai end her communication with the former child star.

In 2020, Jiro returned to the headlines after being put under the authorities’ custody after being involved in a scuffle.

After three years, journalist Julius Babao tried to check the condition of Jiro, who seemed to be successfully rehabilitated.

Jiro was now currently working as a co-facilitator in the rehabilitation center, where he stayed for months.

He also toured Julius around the rehabilitation center, where he once became one of its patients.

Before the interview ended, Jiro vowed not to return from his vices anymore.

“Hindi na po ako babalik sa bisyo ko, ‘yun ang pinapangako ko,” he said.

He didn’t disclose if he was still planning to return to showbiz.

He rose to fame after becoming part of Magnifico in 2003 and winning the Best Child Actor award at the Filipino Academy of Movie Arts and Sciences Awards (FAMAS).

Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB) chairperson Lala Sotto said that she was not affected by the calls of some netizens who wanted her to resign from her position following the decision of the agency to deny the Motion of Reconsideration filed by It’s Showtime.

It can be recalled that MTRCB denied the appeal made by GMA Network and ABS-CBN not to push through the 12-day suspension imposed by the agency against the Kapamilya show for the alleged indecent acts done by its hosts Vice Ganda and Ion Perez during one of its segments, ‘Isip Bata’.

Sotto had been criticized for several weeks by the netizens, but she said she was ‘unbothered’ by those negative comments because she was already used to being lambasted.

“I truly believe that me being a Sotto or being my father’s daughter shouldn’t be taken against me. Instead, it should be taken positively since I’m someone who grew up in, loves, and understands the industry,” said Sotto in her statement.

“I really believe that the Lord prepared me for this because I grew up in public scrutiny. I saw my parents always talked about. I would read about my father, or my titos, and family all the time in the papers. Bashing is not new to us, to me. You all know what they’ve said about my father in the past. I thank God I am unbothered,” she added.

As of writing, GMA and ABS-CBN have yet to give a official statement about their next move following the decision made by MTRCB.

Jey Rence ‘Senior Agila’ Quilario, the president of Socorro Bayanihan Services Inc. (SBSI), denied that he decided to be the president of the alleged cult based in Surigao Norte.

During the joint committee senate hearing on September 28, Quilario said that their former president, Rosalina Taroc, pushed him to become the leader of SBSI.

According to him, he was now being judged by many people because of his leadership under SBSI, even if he didn’t want to lead the alleged cult.

“Sakit po isipin na parang hinusgahan na po ako ng lahat, kasi yung pagka-presidente ko ng Socorro Bayanihan Services Inc. ay hindi ko po kagustuhan, kung hindi lang sa aming presidente na si Rosalina Taroc,” said Quilario.

He also denied that he proclaimed himself as the reincarnation of Santo Niño, who symbolizes the young Jesus Christ.

According to him, he was started to be called ‘Senior Agila’ not because he was considered the Messiah but because it was his alias as a recording artist.

However, the lawmakers didn’t buy the explanations made by Quilario, and they decided to cite him in contempt.

Because of this, Quilario was currently put under the custody of the senate and was not allowed to return to Surigao.

Alleged cult leader Jey Rence Quilario, also being called ‘Senior Agila’ was temporarily detained by the Senate after he didn’t satisfy the lawmakers who were probing him about the alleged illegal practices being performed by his group Socorro Bayanihan Services Inc. (SBSI).

The senate invited Quilario to face the allegations that his group was forcing children to marry their members and their alleged building of a private army.

Several witnesses who introduced themselves as former members of SBSI narrated their experience with the group, saying that they were forced to marry some of the members.

According to one witness, Senior Agila even asked her to spend a night with the alleged cult leader, but she refused.

Senator Ronald “Bato” Dela Rosa put Quilario under their custody for not answering their questions directly.

“Doon ka sa baba, wag kang mag-alala aircon diyan,” Dela Rosa said.

After the hearing, senate staff brought the leader to his temporary room.

It can be recalled that Quilario allegedly claimed to be the next ‘Messiah’ and even called by his members as the reincarnation of Santo Niño, a religious figure symbolizing the young Jesus Christ.

He was also facing several charges for the alleged activities of SBSI.

The Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB) denied the Motion for Reconsideration filed by It’s Showtime to appeal the suspension imposed against their show.

It can be recalled that MTRCB gave a 12-day suspension against It’s Showtime, but it was delayed because of the appeal made by the Kapamilya show.

However, on September 28, MTRCB said there was no reason for them to approve the appeal of It’s Showtime.

“The Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB) released a resolution dated 28 September 2023, denying the Motion for Reconsideration (MR) filed by GMA Network Inc. and ABS-CBN Corporation,” the agency headed by Lala Sotto wrote.

“Said MRs sought relief from the Board’s ruling dated August 17, 2023, regarding the July 25, 2023, episode of the live noontime television program “It’s Showtime!” Specifically, during the show’s “Isip Bata” segment, in which hosts Ryan Bang, Vice Ganda, and Ion Perez allegedly acted indecently or inappropriately in the presence of children, which is alleged to have violated Section 3 (c) of Presidential Decree No. 1986 and it’s Implementing Rules and Regulation,” they added.

Because of the decision, It’s Showtime would be suspended from airing starting tomorrow.

As of writing, Vice and Ion have yet to give any comment on the decision made by MTRCB.

Meanwhile, Kapamilya fans couldn’t hide their disappointment over the decision made by MTRCB and accused the head of the agency of favoring her father’s show E.A.T., a competitor of It’s Showtime.
