Andrea Brillantes reveals that she considers pretending to pass away to escape showbiz

Actress Andrea Brillantes shared that she almost faked her own passing before to escape the criticism from netizens.

In her Youtube vlog that featured Kyle Echarri, Andrea said that she planned to escape the show business by creating a story to convince the netizens that she already passed away.

She didn’t disclose what year she had considered her ultimate escape plan.

According to her, after faking her own passing, she would try to change her name and hide in some unknown country where she wouldn’t recognize by other people.

“Actually naisip ko na `yon dati. Pero right now, hindi na! Naisip ko pa noon na magbabago pa ako ng name. Tapos konti lang ang makakaalam, my mom and my sister. Or baka just my sister lang,” said Andrea.

“Basta parang maka-car crash ako! Ito talaga ‘yung time na ang daming namba-bash sa akin. Sabi ko, what if I fake my own death? Tapos magi-guilty sila (basher) sa mga masasakit, masasama na sinabi nila sa akin!” she added.

 

Lawyer says that anyone can file a case against Vice and Ion for their acts on ‘Isip Bata’: “It affects the psychological development of child”

A lawyer believed that anyone could file charges against Vice Ganda and Ion Perez for allegedly violating Republic Act RA 7610.

In his explanation, Atty. Mark Tolentino said that it was possible that the alleged indecent acts performed by Vice and Ion on the Isip Bata segment of It’s Showtime covered the said law that protects the children.

“It affects the psychological development ng the child,” said Atty. Tolentino.

According to him, anyone may file a complaint against the two even if the complainant was not related to the Isip Bata contestants.

“Example ‘yung mga ginagawa silang eksena tapos kasama nila ‘yung mga bata, tapos ‘yung eksena na ‘yan may mapapatunayan na that it affects the psychological development and emotional development of a child, pwedeng maging violation yan,” the lawyer said.

The lawyer said that an expert may be called as a witness to prove if Vice and Ion’s actions really affected the children involved in the issue.

“Kailangan iatas nila ang isang expert witness testimony, the expert witness normally ay ‘yung mga psychologist, mga psychiatrist na mag testify to their study na ‘yung ginagawang eksena na ‘yon affects psychological and emotional development of a child,” he explained.

Tolentino also explained that It’s Showtime might be terminated on television based on the final decision of the Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB) chaired by Lala Sotto.

As of writing, Vice and Ion still refused to give any statement on the issue.

Cristy Fermin defends Vice Ganda and Ion Perez from a vlogger she calls ‘Tamulmol’: “Sobrang lungkot po ng puso ko,”

Cristy Fermin addressed the criticism being made by a vlogger she called ‘Tamulmol’ and ‘Tolongges’.

‘Tamulmol’ is another word for ‘Tukmol’, a Filipino slang word that means ‘fool’.

In her online program, Cristy said that while she’s a critic of Vice Ganda and Ion Perez, she was saddened when she read the criticism being made by ‘Tamulmol’ against the two It’s Showtime hosts.

“Sobrang lungkot po ng puso ko na para po sakin, pinakamababa na po ng paglalarawan ng isang tao ang tawaging kang palamon na para bang wala ka ng ginawang maganda sa buhay mo at kung wala ‘yung tinutukoy na bakla na nagpapalamon sayo, hindi ka na kakain,” said Fermin.

Cristy’s co-host Rommel Chika also said that ‘tamulmol’ chose the wrong words in his criticism of Ion and Vice.

According to Rommel, Ion was known for being hardworking even before he met Vice.

The veteran columnist also insisted that ‘Tamulmol’ has no business with the support being received by Ion to his girlfriend.

Another co-host of Cristy, Wendell Alvarez believed that ‘Tamulmol’ was affected by the response made by Ion to him.

Wendell said that Tamulmol challenged Ion to a slugfest after the It’s Showtime hosts assumed that the vlogger was attracted to him.

“Siya ang naghamon, siya ang napikon,” Rommel said.

Motivational Speaker Rendon Labador reminded Paolo Contis to treat his kids first before his colleagues in Eat Bulaga.

It can be recalled that Paolo bought several seafood pans for his Dabarkads after the Intellectual Property Office of the Philippines (IPOPHL) granted a 10-year renewal of Eat Bulaga trademark ownership to Television and Production Exponents (TAPE) Inc.

However, Rendon said that Paolo should buy food for his children first before spending money on other people.

“Anak mo muna pakainin mo bago ka manlibre! SUSTENTO MUNA BAGO KA MANLIBRE!” said Rendon.

It can be recalled that Paolo received criticism on social media after he admitted that he was not sending any child support to his children.

Rendon actively reminded Paolo to fulfill his obligation to his children, especially that he already had a well-paying job as a host of Eat Bulaga.

“Anong klaseng pag katao mayroon si Paolo Contis at natitiis niyang mag bigay ng pa-premyo sa taong bayan habang nagugutom ang mga anak? Patigasan nalang ng muka bro? Alam kong nakakatawa ka, pero huwag mo namang gawing nakakatawa pati buhay mo,” Rendon said.

Parents who were not sending support to their children were liable for violating the Family Code of the Philippines.

Because of the dangerous prank they did, Conmigo filed a complaint against the group to discourage other content creators to do the same thing.

Even the PNP warned other content creators not to do such pranks.

“Muntik ng magkaroon ng hindi magandang insidente out of this prank kaya gusto ko sanang manawagan sa pamamagitan nito ay mabigyan kami ng pagkakataon na masabi ang side dito.” Las Piñas police chief Col. Jaime Santos said.

“Wala naman pong problema sa pagba-vlog, pero sana pag-aralan natin ‘yung content, suriin natin. Hindi pwede ‘yung mga ganito na it concerns the security of the community and the vlogger itself. We will filing a case against the vloggers.

“Eto ang taos pusong pasasalamat naman sa mga sumusuporta sa amin, sa dinadaanan po namin, lalo na sa mga vloggers, kahit minsan hindi maganda ang naisusulat niyo,” Joey said.

“Sa mga hindi nabanggit alam niyo na ‘yon, katulad ng sinasabi ni Vic noon.. Kung ang titulo ng isang show at binanggit alam niyo ng kami ‘yon,” said Joey.

It can be recalled that Television and Production Exponents (TAPE) Inc. successfully renewed its trademark rights on Eat Bulaga branding for another 10 years.

It means that TAPE would own the Eat Bulaga title until 2033.

Meanwhile, Joey took a swipe against TAPE’s celebration, saying that it would be better if they were celebrating without stealing anything from other people.

Joey claimed to be the inventor of Eat Bulaga title and they were aiming to get the ownership of its copyright, which were believed to be more powerful than owning the trademark of the noontime show.
