Comedian Pokwang went ballistic against the defenders of her former husband Lee O’Brian.

In some Instagram comments, it can be seen that Pokwang was trying to argue with the netizen who blamed her for what happened to their relationship with the foreign actor.

However, Pokwang made it clear that Lee was a ‘user’ and only had a relationship with people who would benefit him.

“Akala siguro papatulan sila ng kano nayan akhit magpapansin ka araw araw sa post niya mangagamit yang taong yan, hahahaha wala ka pera!” Pokwang told the netizen.

“Anak nga niya walang suporta 5years!! Inyo nayan saksak mo sa ngalangala mo!” she added.

Some netizens already suspected that Pokwang was only ‘bitter’ about her failed relationship with Lee, but the comedian denied it.

“Hindi daw siya bitter. Paano pa kaya pag bitter siya?” a netizen who followed the issue said.

“Lumabas pagka palengkera ni Pokie. Dapat walang ganyan. May pinagsamahan kayo at ama pa rin ng anak mo yan. Kung wala yung kano na yan wala kang magandang anak. And ikaw ang reason kaya nag settle dito si Kano. Alam mo beforehand na striving actor lang yan sa Amerika. Inuwe mo dito syempre wala naman yan pagkikitaan dito kundi umekstra lang.” another netizen commented.

Lee has yet to give a response to the accusations of Pokwang.

It can be recalled that Pokwang started to criticize her former husband when she discovered that he was already dating another girl.

“Wala na po,  may nilalandi na siya. Hindi nag-effort na lunikin ang pride chicken para kay Tisay,” Pokwang said.

Comedian Marietta Subong, also known as ‘Pokwang’ made a big revelation about why she got separated from her former partner Lee O’Brian.

In her Instagram comments, Pokwang replied to a netizen blaming her for their breakup.

According to her, she realized that for six years she was providing all of their needs without Lee’s assistance.

She even warned the netizen not to interfere with her private life or else she will also face charges like Lee.

“Nagising lang ako sa katotohanan na anim na taon kona pala sya palamunin at limang taon walang child support! Wag kana baka madamay ka sa demandahan namin,” Pokwang said.

“Hindi ko siya iniwan tanungin mo siya bakit ko siya pinalayas! Tanungin mo now na!” she added.

At first, Pokwang denied that their breakup was caused by financial problems but her recent admission confirmed the rumors.

“Una sa lahat walang third party, wala in all fairness kay Papang. Hindi rin pera, kagaya ng mga lumalabas na pera. Hindi ganoon, walang ganoon. Siguro napagod lang kami,” Pokwang said in an interview last year.

It can be recalled that Pokwang took swipes several times recently against Lee after the foreign actor was reportedly dating someone again.

“Nang makita mo pinalit ng ex mo. Huh? Akala koba ako na ang chaka? Bwahahahahaha ang cheap!!!!” Pokwang said.

As of writing, Lee has yet to give a response to Pokwang’s accusation.

The two were currently in a co-parenting setup for their child Malia.

But it seems that after the accusations released by the comedian, the two may not cross paths temporarily.

Miss Planet Philippines National Director Wilbert Tolentino claimed that Miss Planet International 2023 Maria Luisa Varela received an advantage during the pageant held in Cambodia on January 29.

In a message he passed to the Entertainment News Portal, Tolentino said that Varela pushed to participate in the pageant despite his request not to support the said pageant after what happened in Uganda last November.

He accused the new national director of the organization, Miki Antonio of paying a hefty amount of money so the Philippines could win the crown.

“So, eto na nga mga Marites, Huwag po muna tayo mag diwang sa pagka panalo ang Miss Planet Philipines sa International stage ng MPI. FYI lang po guys, bayad po ang Korona ang na panalunan ng Miss Planet Philippines at alam na nya final Question. bago cya lumipad ng #Cambodia para sumabak ng MPI.” Tolentino said.

He also showed several screenshots of the alleged conversation with Antonio in the past, giving a warning to Tolentino about the CEO of Miss Planet International.

“Mukhang pera si Hailey of Cambodia siya ang me Ari nyan. Ako ang inoffer ko is 6 crows from Philippines ako nagpagw ang 6 crowns nung first edition. Baka perahan si sir Wilbert,” the conversation reads.

Tolentino also showed his message to Varela, giving her a warning not to go to Cambodia to participate in the pageant.

Another post by Tolentino showed alleged evidence that the questions for the Q&A were given in advance in exchange for money.

“Deserve mo etong post ko. Dahil bukod sa pag bypass nyo sa akin ng K*pal mong National Director si Miki Antonio. wala parin kayong modo at sobra kayong mabastos at kayo pa galit galitan.” Wilbert said.

“You must atleast mag pasintabi or courtesy call sa akin kung may pangarap ka maging Beauty Queen baka ma consider ko pa at gawan pa kta release paper agad agad. Sana inicip nyo rin yan bago kayo sumabak sa #Cambodia kung meron ba kayo matatapakan ng tao.” he added.

Wilbert also insisted that he’s still the national director of Miss Planet Philippines and not Antonio.

“Kaya kht balik baliktarin natin ang dokumento ako parin ang NATIONAL DIRECTOR ng MISS PLANET PHILIPPINES. Klaro po tayo?” he said.

As of writing, Valera and Antonio have yet to release a statement to the accusations of Tolentino.

Talent manager and businessman Wilbert Tolentino released a series of criticisms against Miss Planet International 2023 Maria Luisa Varela.

It can be recalled that Varela replaced Herlene Budol as the representative of the Philippines for the Miss Planet International pageant that was held in Cambodia on January 29.

Budol was supposed to represent the Philippines at the said pageant last November 2022 in Uganda, however, the pageant has been postponed and Tolentino called the event a ‘scam’ for the alleged treatment received by the other candidates including his talent.

On January 21, Tolentino who was the National Director of Miss Planet in the Philippines criticized the ‘unauthorized’ move by other officials of the said organization to replace Budol with Varela.

According to him, he decided not to send any candidates for the next Miss Planet pageant in Cambodia because of what happened in Uganda.

However, Wilbert claimed that he was not informed that other officials of Miss Planet decided to send another candidate to Cambodia even without his permission.

“Given the unfortunate circumstances that occurred during the pageant held in Uganda on November 19, 2022, I have decided not to send a representative to the new Ms. Planet to be held in Cambodia this January 29, 2023. I will be constrained to take legal action against any person representing to have authority to send a representative for the Philippines to Ms. Planet without my authority.” Wilbert said.

He’s also planning to file charges against the people who pushed through the event.

“With this in mind, I will be constrained to take all available legal actions to prevent the usurpation of my contractual rights under our Franchise Agreement. May this also serve as a notice to the public that any other person proclaiming to be authorized to appoint a representative for the Philippines in the Ms. Planet pageant is without merit,” he said.

The said candidate then won the Miss Planet International 2023, but it seems that Tolentino was still not happy with the new crown for the country.

Tolentino accused the candidate of having a bad attitude and was desperate to have a crown.

“Agree ako beautiful si Philippines pero Atechona si Inday. Uhaw sa Korona,” the talent manager claimed.

It seems that the silent rivalry between Beauty Brand CEOs Miss Glenda and Rosmar Tan reached another level.

On their social media pages, the two most followed beauty product owners in the country announced that they’re going to hold a concert next month in the same venue.

Miss Glenda who owns Brilliant Skin Essentials Philippines told her followers that her concert titled ‘#Pinakamakinang’ will be held at Araneta Coliseum on February 7, 2023.

Several celebrities and guests will also perform during the concert including Andrea Brillantes, Mayonnaise, and Adie.

Meanwhile, Rosmar Tan who owns Rosmar Skin Essentials will also hold her concert ‘#ROSMARMASPINALAKAS’ at Araneta on February 27, 2023.

She also invited several bands like December Avenue, Spongecola, Itchyworms, and Rivermaya.

Netizens noticed that the two were using the same color theme for their concert poster suspecting that the two were trying to compete on the possible attendance of their concert.

It can be recalled that Glenda and Rosmar confronted each other on social media last year.

Glenda even said that she was ready to face Rosmar anywhere to prove that her products were superior.

The issue even reached the Department of Justice (DOJ) when Glenda announced that she was planning to file a case against a certain individual who was believed to be Rosmar.

She also posted a photo with her lawyers Atty. Garreth Tungol, Atty. Joren, Atty. Daniel, Atty. Gab and Atty. Sarah.

Rosmar reacted to the possible charges, saying that her lawyer would talk for her.

“RELAX MUNA TAYO OVERNIGHT BAGO MAG FILE NG PATONG PATONG NA KASO BUKAS SA ‘IBAT IBANG TAO’. ABANGAN! PAGTITYAGAAN KO KAYO KAHIT MEDYO SASAYANGIN N’YO ORAS KO. SANA LANG UMABOT HANGGANG DULO ANG LACASH NYO! HAHAHAHA,” she said.

Many Filipinos are dreaming of becoming an artist someday because of the high income being received by some celebrities.

Several celebrity vlogs showed how some people working in the showbiz industry were having a comfortable and sometimes luxurious life.

However, not all celebrities maintained their lifestyle after their retirement.

This can happen for a variety of reasons, such as poor financial management, extravagant spending, or simply not having enough money saved for retirement.

Unlike normal workers, most celebrities don’t receive retirement pay or other benefits because they’re not considered ’employed’.

One notable case of a celebrity who didn’t have a happy retirement was former action star John Regala.

It can be recalled that Regala asked for financial help from his colleagues in showbiz but it was later ignored.

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

One of the popular figures who made a reaction to Regala’s statement was motivational speaker Rendon Labador.

According to Labador, the current situation of Regala should become a warning to other celebrities to save up for their retirement.

“Sarili mo lang makakatulong sayo. Masakit na aral to sa lahat ng celebrities! Mag isip kayo ng LONG TERM habang kaya ninyo pa. Magising kayo sa katotohanan,” Labador said.

After appearing in more than 100 movies and becoming a director once, Regala was supposed to be wealthy after retirement.

However, in 2020 netizens discovered that the former action star was facing financial difficulties and health problems.

The photo of Regala has gone viral on social media and some celebrities extended their help to help the former action star with his medication.

Celebrities like Nadia Montenegro, Chuckie Dreyfus, and Aster Amoyo personally visited Regala and even made crowdfunding to help their former colleague.

However, the help suddenly stopped when the said celebrities alleged that Regala only wanted to use the money he was receiving for his vices.

Until today, Regala was still facing health problems that required medication.
