Ben Tulfo addresses Rendon Labador in his show: “Wag kang iiyak-iyak na parang bata”

Rendon Labador successfully captured the attention of journalist Ben Tulfo who addressed him in his program.

On May 23, 2023, Tulfo said that they should not be compared to influencers like Labador who’s known for his controversial statements on social media.

“Hindi po kami tulad ng mga blogger na katulad ng muscle-muscle diyan ang pangalan ay ‘Labrador’. Pangalanan mo, wag kang iiyak iyak diyan na parang bata,” he said.

“Pinasok na nga namin ‘yung page mo para magpadala na kami ng mensahe sayo para pakita mo na hindi kami nagbibiro. Tama na ‘yang mga putak putak mo diyan,” he added.

Tulfo even asked Labador if he wanted to become his puppy.

Meanwhile, Labador reacted to the statement of Tulfo, challenging the latter to fulfill his warning.

“Namuti na mata ko kaka antay sa gate ng bahay namin wala naman yung nanghuhuli, lahat ng taong dumadaan tinatanong ko na nga “Kayo po ba yung manghuhuli sa akin,” Labador said.

“Ang sabi ko, send mo nalang yung address ng BITAG at ako na mismo pupunta. Tinatago ninyo yata yung address.” he added.

It can be recalled that Labador called Tulfo an ‘old man’ that doesn’t deserve his attention.

Rendon Labador invites Kakai Bautista to his podcast: “Para may representative yung artistang pinag tatanggol mo.”

Actress Kakai Bautista couldn’t take the statements being made by motivational Rendon Labador against the members of the showbiz community.

It can be recalled that Rendon started to capture the attention of Kakai when the influencer made criticisms against comedian Michael V.

“Kahit mag kampihan pa kayong lahat, wala akong paki alam. Bakit hindi ninyo matanggap na mga laos na kayo? Masakit na katotohanan yan na kailangan ninyong lunukin.” Rendon said.

Kakai then gave some advice to Rendon, asking him to be humble and also to consult a doctor for his statements.

“Kapatid, PATINGIN KANA,” Kakai said.

Rendon then responded to Kakai’s comment, inviting the latter to the first episode of his online podcast.

“Kakai Bautista Pasensya na kung nasaktan kayo sa mga sinabi ko. It’s not my intention to disrespect you or yung mga narating ninyo sa buhay.” said Rendon. “Masakit na katotohanan lamang na laos na kayo. Pina muka ko lang sa inyo yung totoong nangyayari ngayon. Isipin ninyo din na walang masama sa pagiging LAOS, masyado lang kayong emosyonal.”

“Baka gusto mong maging first guest sa podcast na gagawin ko? Para may representative yung artistang pinag tatanggol mo. Puntahan mo ako usap tayo.” he added.

As of writing, Kakai has yet to give any response to the invitation of Labador.

“Wala akong pakialam sa inyong lahat kahit magkampi-kampihan pa kayo diyan, gusto ko lang sabihin ang opinyon ko. Anong “enforcer ng media”? Edi pahuli mo ‘ko para magkaalaman tayo, hindi kita uurungan.” Labador responded.

In another post, Labador asked Tulfo when he would fulfill his warning.

“Sabi ko ipahuli niya na ako? Mahirap din yung puro satsat,” said Labbador. “Ako na mismo pupunta, nakakahiya naman sa matanda baka mapagod pa. Saan ba yan?”

“Namuti na mata ko kaka antay sa gate ng bahay namin wala naman yung nanghuhuli, lahat ng taong dumadaan tinatanong ko na nga “kayo po ba yung manghuhuli saakin. Ang sabi ko, send mo nalang yung address ng BITAG at ako na mismo pupunta. Tinatago ninyo yata yung address,” he added.

As of writing, Tulfo has yet responding to the challenge of Labador.

Gab Valenciano na-ospital matapos madisgrasya sa sinasakyang motor

Gab Valenciano shared with his followers an unfortunate incident that happened to him while driving his motorcycle on May 22, 2023.

In his photos, Gab showed a photo of him while in the hospital after being ‘side swiped on the freeway by an SUV’.

Fortunately, the singer was wearing full gear so the impact of what happened to him has been lessened.

“I got side-swiped on the freeway by an SUV at around 75mph which launched me a good 70ft away from the collision. I was in full gear but because of the force of the impact and momentum, it burned through my jacket and pants.” Gab said.

According to him, this is the first time that such an incident happened to him.

“Been riding for close to two decades and still, new unexpected experiences to learn from.” he stated.

“Today is Sunday and by God’s grace, I was able to speak and share my life story. With my family by my side. In all things, God works for the good of those who love Him. May God bless you all today and keep you and your loved ones safe out there. All is well in His name.” he also said.

It can be recalled that Gab decided to live in the US for good, leaving the Philippines permanently away from his parents.

Netizen remembers Janet Napoles daughter Jeane Napoles’ luxurious life after the acquittal of the businesswoman

Businesswoman Janet Lim-Napoles went viral on social media after the Sandiganbayan second division junked the 16 graft cases filed against her.

The public expressed disappointment with the news, especially since Napoles has been accused of using her businesses and organization in ghost projects allegedly being funded by the pork barrel from public officials.

Aside from Napoles, her daughter Jeanne also went viral on social media in 2018 because of her posts on social media, showing her luxurious lifestyle.

In a video posted on Youtube, it can be shown the lavish party of Jeane during her 21st birthday together with her friends.

She can also be seen with several Hollywood celebrities including Justin Bieber.

Jeane also owned a luxury car that she received as a birthday gift from her parents.

It was reportedly that Jeane also owned a unit at the Ritz Carlton Residences in California that would cost millions of pesos.

Meanwhile, Napoles said that all the funds used to finance her daughter came from legitimate income.

“Wala po na nanggaling sa gobyerno, ni piso. Lahat pong yan ay hanapubuhay namin galing sa aming pinaghirapan. Kaming mag-asawa ay nagpapakamatay na maghanapbuhay para maibigay po namin sa aming mga anak.” Napoles said.

The daughter of Napoles went missing from the public eye since her mother got involved to the PDAF issue.

Sandiganbayan, pinawalang sala si Janet Napoles sa 16 na kaso nito na may kinalaman sa pork-barrel scam

Pinawalang sala ng Sandiganbayan si Janet Lim-Napoles sa 16 na kaso ng ‘graft’ na may kinalaman sa kanyang pagkakasangkot sa pork barrel scam.

Sa naging desisyon ng ikalawang dibisyon ng Sandiganbayan ay sinabi nila na bigo ang prosekusyon na mapatunayan na nilabag nga ni Napoles ang Anti-Graft and Corrupt Practices Act.

“The alleged acts are predicate crimes of Plunder in ‘People V. Ramon ‘Bong’ Revilla, Jr.,’ Criminal Case No. SB-14-CRM-0240, under which she has already been previously charged and convicted,” ayon sa desisyon ng korte.

Matatandaan na noon pa lamang 2015 ay nakapiit na si Napoles dahil sa patong patong na kasong isinampa sa kanya.

Ngunit ang ilan dito ay napawalang bisa na kaya naman posibleng makalaya na ang negosyante sa mga darating na araw.

Naungkat ang pangalan ni Napoles sa usaping korapsyon matapos diumano nitong gamitin ang mga kumpanya ng negosyante para paglaanan ng Priority Development Assistance Fund (PDAF)  o pork barrel.

Inakusahan si Napoles na ginagamit lamang ang mga PDAF na natatanggap ng kanyang kumpanya sa mga ‘ghost project’ at ang mga nagpopondo diumano ditong opisyal ay nakakatanggap ng ‘kickback’ sa kanya.

Ilan sa mga opisyal na naakusahan ay sina Bong Revilla, Jinggoy Estrada, Juan Ponce Enrile at ilang kongresista.

Umabot sa P3-B ang diumano’y nailagay na pera sa mga kumpanya at organisasyon na pagmamay-ari diumano ni Napoles.

Sa ngayon ay wala pang pahayag ang kampo ni Napoles sa pagpabor sa kanila ng korte.

Content creator Xander Ford went viral on social media because of his plea to Christian Merck Grey to give him the P349,000 that he promised.

Xander even claimed that he loaned money just to get money to celebrate the baptism of his child Xeres.

Many netizens sympathized with the financial mistake made by Xander and made a message of support to the influencer.

However, Xander received another criticism on social media after his partner, Gena Mago showed how the controversial influencer spend two days in a private resort.

The said resort, Green Villa Private Resort in Alfonso, Cavite costs 12,000-20,000 a night.

Some netizens reminded Xander about his financial troubles and questioned his decision to stay at a resort.

“O baka ipabayad nyo pa yan kay makagwapo.” a netizen said.

“Gala gala kahit walang pambayad sa binyag…kakahiya ka.” another commenter said.

However, according to some posts on the resort’s social media page, it seems that the video uploaded by Gena was taken during the celebration of Xeres’ baptismal.

We are trying to get a statement from the resort if the stay of Xander’s family is sponsored or not.

OPM legend Dong Abay dedicates a poem to Manila Central Post Office: “Paalam, mamang kartero”

OPM Legend and former vocalist of Yano, Dong Abay dedicated a poem to the Manila Central Post office that was recently destroyed by fire.

On May 22, 2023, netizens expressed sadness after what happened to the historical building that was built in 1926.

Abay was one of the popular celebrities who reacted to the incident and even made a poem about saying goodbye to the building.

That poem was about the redundancy of the postal service because of the advancing technology.

Here’s the poem he made to Manila Central Post Office:

POST

Paalam, mamang kartero
Di na lumiliham ang mga tao
Di na hilig mangolekta ng selyo
Kay bilis na ng takbo ng mundo

Di ka na maglalakad at magbabahay-bahay
Para hanapin ang numero, kalye at barangay
Para ihatid sa nakapangalan
Ang sobreng may laman
Na papel na may sulat- kamay
Ng isang taong naglakbay
At nagkukwento lamang
Ng kanyang buhay

Wireless fidelity, internet access na
Basta may smartphone at computer ka
Email, messenger, viber, video, camera
Online delivery at social media

Makabago na ang teknolohiya
Makinado na ang planeta
Kaya paalam, mamang kartero
Maraming salamat sa serbisyo

The poem made by Abay received thousands of shares from the netizens.
