Kakai Bautista explains why she’s still single at 44-years-old: “Hindi ka kayang buhayin ng pag-ibig lang”

Comedian Kakai Bautista shared with her followers why she decided to remain single despite being already 44 years old.

In a Facebook post, Kakai said that sometimes she’s also considering finding the love of her life, however, she’s also thinking of her finances.

“Minsan gusto din talagang lumandi at mamamsin ng lalake pero kapag naiisip ko yung mga bayarin, gusto ko pang ma-achieve para sa sarili ko, NAGIGISING ako sa KATOTOHANANG di ko kailangan ng LALAKE para sumaya. Kailangan ko pera,” Kakai said.

Her statement received mixed reactions from some netizens, saying that she must build her family now before it’s already too late.

“Kung Ayaw mong mag asawa atleast mag pa anak ka nalang.mahirap tumanda mag isa super hirap maniwala ka.aanhin mo ang lahat ng pinagpaguran mo kung mag isa kalang.wag mo isipin ang mga bayarin tatanda kang mag isa tlaga.pag may rayuma kana walang hihilot ng sakit walang maghaplas sa likod mo,” netizen Cristy said.

However, Kakai said that she’s financially capable to hire people that would take care of her once she grows old.

“Kaya kong magbayad ng mag-aalaga sa akin. HINDI AKO MAG-AANAK para obligahin silang MAG-ALAGA sa akin sa PAGTANDA ko. Aalagaan ko sila at palalakihin sa mindset na Magkukusa sila,” she responded.

In another post, Kakai made clarifications about her beliefs, saying that love cannot feed a family and partners should be also financially independent.

“Don’t get me wrong, naniniwala padin ako sa Wagas na Pag-ibig. Di na nga lang ako niniwala na kaya kang buhayin ng PAG-IBIG lang. Both men and women should be financially independent and stable before going into a serious relationship or marriage.” Kakai said.

“Napakapangit pag-awayan ang wala kang ipapangdate, igagastos sa kasal, ipapakain sa mga anak mo, ipapang-aral at ipapang-ospital kung may magkasakit.” she added.

JoWaPao admits being confused after TVJ suddenly announces their resignation from TAPE Inc: “Pressure yung nangyayari sa loob”

Jose Manalo, Wally Bayola, and Paolo Ballesteros who were popularly known as ‘JoWaPao’ and believed to be the successor of the legendary trio Tito Sotto, Vic Sotto, and Joey de Leon narrated how they felt when TVJ suddenly announced their resignation from TAPE Inc. last May 31, 2023.

In an interview with News5, JoWaPao said that they were clueless during those time that it was already their last day working as Eat Bulaga host.

According to Paolo, they already felt that something big would happen on that day when TAPE Inc. already disallow them to air live.

“Ako ay gulong-gulo sa kung ano ang nangyayari. Bilang ako ay isang clueless. I chose peace. Hindi ko alam kung ang mangyayari siyempre. Pumasok kami para mag-work, likw we usually do, like we all do. Ako for 22 years ng buhay ko mas higit pa sa kalahati ng buhay ko. Sa araw-araw sa Eat Bulaga. Same usual day tapos ‘yun na nga, biglang hindi na raw magla-live and stuff. Anyare ta’s gulong-gulo,” said Paolo.

“Puzzled syempre, gulong-gulo. Gulong-gulo. Iniisip ko after that nung nag-sign off kami, iniisip ko sa’n ako kakain ng libreng lunch,” Wally joked.

While felt pressured, Jose said that he fully trusted the judgment made by TVJ during that day.

“Sa’kin ano e, pressure ‘yung nangyayari sa loob. ‘Yun nga basta sinabi hindi kami eere. Ako sa part ko, hindi naman ako masyadong nag-worry kasi andun ‘yung TVJ.” said Jose. “Alam naman nating hindi kami pababayaan kung anumang sitwasyon, sila naman yung haharap at siguradong magiging maayos naman so, kung anumang pinaplano alam naming tama ‘yung desisyon nila. So, pinaubaya naming lahat. Hindi makakalimutan ‘yung prayers. ‘Yun ang sitwasyon nu’n” 

It can be recalled that Tito denied that they were supposed to resign on that day and only discussed their future plans.

However, the decision of TAPE Inc. to disallow them to air made them quickly decide to just resign from the show.

Cristy Fermin, todo ang pangigigil kay Diego Loyzaga: “Ikaw ang bukod-tanging Loyzaga na bastos”

Hindi maitago ni Cristy Fermin ang pangigigil kay Diego Loyzaga na dalawang beses na diumanong hindi sinipot ang imbitasyon para siya ay makapanayam.

Sa kanyang programa sa Cristy Ferminute ay binatikos ni Cristy ang tila pag-iwas sa kanya ni Diego na balak niya sanang tanungin tungkol sa kanyang pagiging isang ganap ng ama.

Ngunit nagdahilan diumano si Diego para hindi sumipot sa nasabing panayam na lubhang ikinagalit ni Cristy.

Ayon kay Cristy ay lubos silang naabala sa ginawa ni Diego.

“Hindi mo ba alam kung gaano katinding abala ang ginawa mo sa amin kahapon? Paano kung wala pala kami nakahandang materyales dahil inilaan namin sa’yo ang panahon. Paano kung kami pala ay mangangarag? Bigla kang umalis. Makalawang beses mo na yang ginawa sa amin, Diego Loyzaga.” ani Cristy.

Sinabi pa ng kolumnista na tanging si Diego lamang ang miyembro ng pamilya Loyzaga na gumawa sa kanya nito.

“Diego wala ka pa sa posisyon na pupuwede mong gawin ang ganyan. Ang pamilya mo ay mahal ko. Ang nanay mo ay mahal ko. Kahit minsan sinuman sa pamilya Loyzaga, wala akong kinakitaan ng kabastusan. Ikaw ang bukod-tanging Loyzaga na bastos. At iyan ay kaya kong panindigan kahit saan tayo makarating. Dalawang beses mo nang ginawa yan, hindi na yan mauulit Diego Loyzaga.” sabi pa niya.

Sa ngayon ay wala pang pahayag si Diego sa naging banat sa kanya ni Cristy.

Arnold Clavio, pinaalalahanan si Inday Sara Duterte sa kanyang nakaraang pahayag: “Tila madaling makalimot ang bise presidente”

Arnold Clavio reacted to the statement made by Vice President Sara Duterte against House Speaker Martin Romualdez.

It can be recalled that Duterte denied that Romualdez tried to convince her to run for the higher office.

“Pero makailang oras lang , kaagad kumalat ang isang video , na kuha sa oath-taking ceremony sa Leyte ni Romualdez bilang 1st District Representative sa RTR Gymnasium in Tacloban City noong June 15, 2022. Sa video pinupuri ni Duterte ang naging malaking papel ni Romualdez sa kanyang kampanya at pagkapanalo noong nagdaang eleksyon.” Clavio wrote.

“Tila ang mensahe ay ang madaling pagkalimot ng Bise Presidente. May dapat ba tayong pagtakhan dito ? Sa politika , walang permanenteng kaibigan o kaaway , kundi permanenteng interes lamang.” he added.

Clavio even suspected that Duterte and Romualdez have both ambitions to run for higher office.

“Ang maliwanag – parehong may ambisyon ang dalawang lider ng bansa na pumalit kay PBBM sa 2027 . Hmmmm.” he said.
