Rendon Labador, nagbigay ng reaksyon sa pangigigil sa kanya ng netizens: “Kung nasaan ang atensyon, susunod ang pera”

Motivational Speaker Rendon Labador, gives a lesson to the people who attended his meet & greet in his restaurant at Episode Bar + Kitchen on April 15.

According to him, influencers are becoming popular now on social media because they’re showing their true personality, and many of their followers can relate on them.

“‘Rendon bakit ganyan ginagawa mo? Galit lahat ng tao sayo!’, hindi niyo naiintindihan eh, kasi nagbago na po ang panahon,” Labador said. “Karamihan ng mga negosyante ngayon matatanda na, tradisyunal, gusto nila corporate, gusto nila maayos, gusto nila ‘yung wala kang mali, perfect.. Hindi na uubra ‘yun ngayon,”

“Kailangan ngayon nagkakamali ka, kailangan makita ng tao kung sino ka. Gusto nila ‘yung nadudulas ka, nabubulol ka, bakit kasi hinahanap ng tao at ng market ngayon ‘yung totoo kasi sa social media kasi puro fake na, kapag ginawa mo ‘yung reality ‘yung totoong buhay ang feeling ng nanonood satin kaya ka nilang abutin.

“The more na ipinapakita mo ‘yung reality sa buhay the more ka nilang susundan kasi nakaka-relate sila sa’yo, kaya mas sumikat ‘yung mga influencers kasi mas gusto mong panoorin is yung mga taong nakaka-relate ka.”

Labador, who became controversial because of his statement that gained negative publicity on social media, said that the personality he was showing on the internet was part of his strategy to grow his business.

“Kaya nga po ang ginagawa ko sa negosyo ay gumagawa ako ng story, para maging organic para ikaw ‘yung susundan ng tao.. Remember, attention, susunod ‘yung sales, ‘susunod ‘yung benta. Kung nasaan ‘yung attention, susunod ‘yung pera, gets mo? Kung sino ‘yung pinakasikat, yun ang babayaran.” he said.

“So ang rule dito ay kailangan mo ng attention, attention, attention.” he added.

However, he noticed that some influencers were lacking something and only knew how to gather attention.

“The problem is, hindi nila kayang i-convert ‘yung attention. Tignan niyo halos lahat ng influencers walang sponsor na brand, kasi hindi nila i-convert. Kasi ‘yung influencer kung saan lang ‘yung uso doon sila,” he stated.

Suzette Doctolero, pinaghinalaan ng netizens na nagpapatama kay Barbie Forteza: “If our decision is wrong, madalas rin pagsisihan”

Suzette Doctolero received many questions from netizens after she made several tweets about ‘bad decisions’.

In her tweet, Doctolero talked about the consequences of having bad decisions, saying that it might lead to regrettable outcomes.

“Kapag talaga ang ugat ay bad decisions, sunod-sunod na palpak, o unpleasant results and/or disastrous consequences ang kalalabasan. If our decision is wrong, madalas rin pagsisihan natin sa maraming dahilan.” Suzette said.

“People make bad or poor decisions out of greed, blind or misguided ambition and selfishness kaya daming bad repurcussions. But better decisions (based on values, intuition, good heart) leads to better results,” she added.

Some netizens speculated that Doctolero was talking about Barbie Forteza and David Licauco’s love team that became popular because of their tandem in Maria Clara at Ibarra.

Doctolero is one of the writers of the said GMA top-rated show. That’s why some netizens couldn’t stop overthinking her tweet.

It can be remembered that Barbie was having a real-life relationship with Jak Roberto, and some rumors circulated that the latter was not happy with her girlfriend’s tandem with David.

“Sana hindi kau ang tinutukoy dito @dealwithBARBIE. Marami talaga manghihinayang at mawawalan ng gana,” netizen Jona said.

“Mag pakasal na lang kaya kayo @dealwithBARBIE @jak_roberto,” netizen Yaneza said.

“Nandun na tayo na may bf sya pero trabaho nya din to bilang artista and yung J alam nya yun kung talagang mahal mo yung tao support ka talaga hindi yung kunwri support ka tapos deep inside masama loob mo,” she added.

However, Suzette denied that she was referring to any actor or actress in her tweet.

“Luh, walang kinalaman sa kahit sinong artista ang bad decisions eme post ko,” the writer said.

 

 

Mark Bautista, inamin na nilayuan ng ilang kaibigan matapos umamin sa kanyang tunay na pagkatao: “Wala akong regret”

Mark Bautista admitted that his decision to admit that he’s a member of the LGBTQ community made some of his former colleagues stay away from him.

In an interview with Boy Abunda, Mark said that while he had no regrets about coming out, he admitted that it quickly affected his social life and career.

According to him, he felt that some of his friends were already distancing themselves because of his admission.

However, he was surprised that some people who were not even close to him expressed their support.

“Meron naman sa showbiz na naging distant dahil feeling nila I was just doing it for publicity, so medyo doon ko nakilala ang pagkatao.” Mark said.

“Mas na-shock ako sa mga taong hindi ko in-expect na magsu-support sa akin. Mas yun ang pinanghahawakan ko,” he added.

Despite being part of the LGBTQ community, Mark said that he was still interested in doing roles for straight men.

But according to him, most of the offers he was receiving were different now than before.

“Nagkaroon na ng limitation yung ibinibigay na offers, o nai-stereotype na yung roles na puwedeng ibigay sa akin. Gusto ko pa ring gawin na parang, like normal na role, or like yung straight na role.” he stated.

“So, after nung mag-book ako, marami ring nag-offer sa akin na movies na gagawin, but puro BL (Boys Love),” he added.

He was also worried that his admission would affect his singing career and questioning himself if he was still sellable to the concert-goers.

Kris Aquino, hinimok si Vice Gov. Mark Leviste na unahin ang Batangas kaysa sa kanya: ‘Hindi niya trabaho na mag-alaga sakin’

Television host Kris Aquino publicly urged her ‘friend’ Batangas Vice Governor Mark Leviste to prioritize his job as a public servant instead of visiting her in the US.

It can be remembered that Leviste was actively giving updates about Aquino while she was in America for treatment.

While Aquino appreciated the presence of Leviste, she reminded the public official that he was elected by the people of Batangas to serve them and not her.

“Please don’t comment anymore, even though they were just emojis,” Aquino told Leviste.

“Sa mga minamahal ni Vice Gov na mga Batangueno, I have 2 tests left to determine kung kakayanin ko yung ipapasubok na bagong gamot sa kin, praying all goes well because KAYO ang boss nya at wala sa job requirement ng VG ang tumulong mag-alaga sa ‘kin.

“Parati kong pinapaalala kay VG Marc his responsibilities in Batangas di hamak mas mahalaga kumpara sa ‘kin dahil pinagkatiwalaan nyo sya ng inyong boto. I grew up knowning: public service is PRIVILEGE & it’s an accepted reality, serving the people whether binoto ka o hindi, that’s more important than any friendship or romantic relationship.

“Love teaches you how to be patient; constituents in need of social services are not expected to be, because the mandate they gave is based on RESPECT & TRUST; and for all of us, life is difficult enough. Pasensya na po, kinakailangan ko lang po ng masasandalan at hindi nya ko binigo.

“Mga Batangueno, hindi na po sya gagambalin para yung FOCUS nya inyong inyo.”

The statement of Aquino received mixed reactions from the netizens, saying that the television host was right to remind her friend about his responsibilities.

VP Sara Duterte at Mar Roxas, nagkita sa gitna ng pagdiriwang ng Capiztahan Festival

Former Interior Secretary Mar Roxas made a rare public appearance since losing his political comeback attempt in 2019 during the 75th death anniversary of late President Manuel Roxas.

The said event was held amid the Capiztahan Festival that was being held in Capiz.

In the said photos posted on social media, it can be seen that Roxas talked to Vice President Sara Duterte, the child of his nemesis, former President Rodrigo Duterte.

Some photos from SMNI confirmed that the two talked briefly, but there are no details about their discussion.

“Ang taunang tradisyon na ito ay isinasagawa upang magbigay parangal at pag-alala sa mga makabayan na kontribusyon ni dating Pangulong Roxas sa ating bansa,” the Vice President said.

The former secretary is the grandchild of former president Roxas.

Meanwhile, some netizens questioned the meeting between the two and reminded Roxas of what he said about Davao City in 2016.

His criticisms against former President Duterte were also believed to be the reason why he lost his attempt to return to politics in 2019.

However, there were rumors that Roxas may become a public official in the future because he is a cousin of First Lady Liza Araneta Marcos.

“Nagpapabango ba? Sana hindi siya yung nasa blind item na mag babalik sa isang cabinet position ng administration ngayon,” netizen Dhone said.

 

 

Mga miyembro ng LGBTQ community, kasama sa priority lane ng isang opisina ng LTO: “The world is healing”

An office of the Land Transporation Office (LTO) went viral on social media after a member of the LGBTQ community shared a photo showing that they were part of the priority lane in the said government establishment.

The photo posted by Jefferson Cortez, Chief of Staff at Ateneo de Naga University Supreme Student Government, showed that aside from Senior Citizens, Pregnant Women, and persons with disability, LGBTQ members were also part of the priority lane of LTO San Isidro District Office in Isabela.

Cortez believed that the decision of the said LTO office was a victory among LGBTQ.

“Mga accla, we are winning, priority na tayo,” Cortez said.

The photo gained mixed reactions even among the members of the LGBTQ community.

According to some netizens, the decision of the said LTO office might give a bad impression on their community.

“Ha? Why? When they observe “totally capable” individuals using the priority lane merely because they belong to that community, it could possibly fuel greater prejudice and stigma. Then perhaps a large number of people will pretend to be part of that group in order to get that privilege.” netizen Ajhay said.

“part din ako ng LGBTQ+ pero medyo ano ako dito,” another netizen commented.

“Being a member of LGBTQIA+ Community does not, will not and should not grant you special privileges such as this. Gender equality does not call for specialized treatments but rather EQUAL, EQUITABLE, JUST and INCLUSIVE rights,” netizen RA remarked.

As of writing, LTO San Isidro has yet to explain why they included the LGBTQ+ on their priority lane.
