Vilma Santos defends her son Luis Manzano from controversy: “Anak ko ay tumutulong, hindi nanloloko”

Former Batangas Governor and Veteran actress Vilma Santos couldn’t stop hiding her emotion after talking about the controversy faced by her son Luis Manzano.

It can be recalled that Manzano was facing charges from several investors for being involved in an alleged fraud worth P100-M.

According to the complainants, they were convinced by Manzano to invest millions of pesos in Flex Fuel Corporation and even promising profits that the company later didn’t realize.

Flex Fuel also introduced the actor as their ‘CEO’ and even used the actor in their promotional material telling the potential investors to “do businesses with Mr. Luis Manzano.”

However, in an interview, Santos insisted that her son is a good person and will not be able to do something wrong to others.

“And the only thing I can say is I know my son. Ang anak ko ay tumutulong, hindi nanloloko. Kaya ‘yung mga nagsasalita at naghuhusga sa kanya, dahan-dahan lang kayo. Walang ibang nakakakilala sa anak ko kung hindi ako. And I know he is such a good person,” Santos said.

She also gave a message to her son, believing that the truth will prevail in the future.

“You will be fine, anak. Maraming nagmamahal sa iyo and the truth will prevail. Alam ng mga tao ‘yan. Tumutulong ka, anak, hindi ka nanloloko and I love you. I love you, Lucky.” she said.

As of writing, Manzano has yet to give a public comment about the accusations against him.

Meanwhile the complainant said that they would not be swayed by the public support for Manzano and still planning to pursue the charges.

Darryl Yap, sinadya diumanong sabayan ang ‘Oras de Peligro’: “Gusto nilang pagtakpan ang katotohanan”

Cinemagoers were already hyped about the rivalry between the two movies created by directors Joel Lamangan and Darryl Yap.

It can be recalled that Joel Lamangan created ‘Oras de Peligro,’ a historical drama movie about social injustices that happened days before the People Power Revolution that ended the term of former President Ferdinand Marcos Sr.

Meanwhile, Yap also made another historical drama movie about the rivalry between the Aquino and Marcos family after the success of Maid in Malacanang.

Coincidentally, the two movies were set to be shown on March 1, 2023.

During the press conference of Oras de Peligro, Lamangan said that Yap intended to match the showing date of his movie because the VIVA director wanted to counter the truth.

“Sila tumatapat, hindi kami. Ibig sabihin, napakaimportante ng pelikulang ito kaya nila tinatapatan. At takot sila.” Lamangan said.

Lamangan also said that Yap wanted to hide the truth from the public.

“Dahil ang ginagawa nila ay gusto nilang pagtakpan ang katotohanan. Ang katotohanan na ang mga Pilipino ang nagpatalsik kay Marcos sa Malacañang. Yun ang katotohanan, at igalang natin ang kasaysayan. Yun ang kasaysayan! Hindi dapat tayo padala sa melodrama ng awa sa kanila na sila ang pinalayas, sila ang parang ginawang kung anu-ano lang.” the veteran director said.

“Dapat tayo ay magbantay, nang hindi tayo pumayag na baguhin nila ang kasaysayan,” he added.

In his post, Yap reacted to the press conference about Lamangan’s movie asking why he was being discussed there even if he’s not part of the project.

“Bakit po sila nagpapapresscon kung ako lang naman yung topic? di ba nila alam na may group chat naman?” the director said.

Arnold Clavio, binigyan ng mamahaling bouquet na gawa sa sibuyas ang kanyang asawa

Journalist Arnold Clavio made a creative gift for his wife last Valentine’s Day.

In his social media post, Clavio shared the bouquet he gave to his wife, Charlene, that was made of onions.

“Happy ❤️’s Day Mamu … And you deserve the most expensive bouquet on this special day … 14324,” Clavio said.

It can be recalled that during the past few weeks, the price of onion peaked at 700 pesos per kilo.

However, the current price of the onion already dropped to 150 per kilo.

Clavio was one of the people who criticized the government because of the high price of onions.

In his past post, he even said that even national hero Jose Rizal would complain about the price of the said basic ingredient.

Clavio said:
“Kahit si Pepe ay babangon sa hukay ,
Di matanggap ang presyo ng gulay ,
Kapabayaan ba o kahinaan na matatawag
Bakit hinayaang lumala ng ganap ?
Artipisyal ba o may totoong problema ?
Bakit umaangal mga magsasaka ?
Importasyon nga lang ba ang tanging solusyon ?
Naunahan na ng mga smuggler ang pagbaha ng produkyon …
Paano mapatatag , maibaba ang presyo ng sibuyas ?
Law of supply and demand , tila hindi magkaangkas …
Di ba nakakahiya para kay Pangulong Bongbong…
Siya pa naman ang kalihim , problema’y nagkapatung-patong …
Hindi ko maisip ang luhang dulot ng sibuyas …
Ay magkatotoo , kundi ba naman malas!
Masakit na sa bulsa , kahit di pa hinihiwa
Hangang kailan ba magtitiis ang ating sikmura.”

Darryl Yap, may bwelta kay Cherry Pie Picache: “Yung pumatay nga sa nanay mo, nayakap mo!”

Director Darryl Yap responded to the criticisms he received from Cherry Pie Picache during the press conference of the movie “Oras de Peligro,” directed by Joel Lamangan.

Oras de Peligro was expected to counter the story of Yap’s upcoming movie about the story of the rivalry between former President Ferdinand Marcos Sr. and former Sen. Ninoy Aquino Jr.

During the mediacon held on February 12, Cherry Pie said that she would refuse any offer from Darryl if she received an offer to be part of any future projects of the director.

According to her, she’s ready to portray the character of former first lady Imelda Marcos as long as it’s not from a project of Darryl.

“Depende sa konteksto ng pelikula, sa script why not? Pero by Darryl Yap, no!” she said.

The popular director responded to Cherry Pie and asked why the actress acted like she already watched his movie.

He even mentioned how the actress forgave the man who ended the life of her mother while a director like him who only made movies was treated badly by Cherry Pie.

“Napanood ko kasi kung paano mo pinatawad ang pumatay sa Nanay mo, ang pagsabi mo ng magagandang bagay patungkol sa pangtanggap at pagbibigay katwiran sa mismong pumatay sa Nanay mo—naisip ko, YUNG PUMATAY SA NANAY MO, NAYAKAP MO.
sigurado kang may kabutihan sa kanya—Ako, na gumagawa lamang ng pelikula (na dahilan kung bakit kayo may pelikula) AKO ANG TINATANONG MO KUNG MAY KONSENSYA?” the director asked.

Darryl also made it clear that he’s not interested to hire Cherry Pie in any of his movies.

In another post, Yap posted a movie poster from an old movie of Cherry Pie where she was seen eating a banana.

He questioned why he became one of the top discussions during the media conference for Oras De Peligro despite the fact that he was not even part of the movie.

“Pinanood ko rin nang buo ang presscon nila na muntik ko nang isipin na ang title ay Oras de Darryl o Darryl De Peligro, dahil halos ako ang topic. Akala ko may nagtrigger lang sa kanya—pero wala; gusto nya talagang sabihin ang nasabi niya, pero ok lang—ganoon din naman ako tuwing sumasagot, ang kaibahan lang, never ako umatake.” he said.

Payo ni Sen. Robin Padilla noon kay Kylie Padilla, binalikan: “Pag-Muslimin mo na lang si Aljur”

Several netizens talked about the advice of Sen. Robin Padilla in the past to his daughter Kylie Padilla.

Padilla’s advice recirculated on social media after Aljur Abrenica’s admission that he had a relationship with AJ Raval.

It can be recalled that Sen. Robin and Kylie already talked before about the latter’s problem with her former partner Aljur Abrenica.

In an interview with Ogie Diaz, the action star-turned-senator admitted that he had no right to advise his daughter.

“Pagdating sa marriage ano ba ma-a-advise ko? E, failure din kami ng mama niya. Ano’ng credibility ko?” Padilla shared.

According to Padilla, the only advice he gave to Kylie was to convert Aljur to Islam.

“Sabi ko, ‘Pag-Muslimin mo na lang si Aljur’,” Padilla shared.

Islam allows a man to have multiple wives, so some netizens thought that Padilla wanted Aljur to be converted so he could legally marry other women.

He also urged Aljur and Kylie that if they’re planning to reconcile, they should do it as soon as possible.

“Pero sana huwag tumagal. Kung magbabalikan sila, ‘wag nilang patagalin. Kailangan kaagad,” he said.

Padilla also told the two not to publish their problems on social media.

Bakit? Nagmahalan naman kayo, e, nasarapan naman kayo pareho. Hindi kayo kailangang mag-away,” he said.

 

Issue between Aljur Abrenica and Kylie Padilla recirculates after AJ Raval’s boyfriend reveal: “Tell them who cheated first”

Aljur Abrenica and AJ Raval surprised the public after they officially revealed their relationship on Valentine’s Day.

The two announced their relationship by posting photos of them together on their social media pages, confirming the rumors about them.

“I’ll always give you all the love in my heart and love you unconditionally,” Raval said.

 

 

It can be recalled that the two were already suspected of having a relationship since 2021 after the breakup between Aljur and his former partner Kylie Padilla.

The public feasted on the feud between Aljur and Kylie where the actor accused the latter of cheating.

In the said post Aljur directly addressed Kylie and urged the actress to tell the truth to the netizens.

“Tell them who cheated first. Tell them who are you with right now. Have the courage to settle this. Tell your dad the truth. If not for them do it for our children. After so many years will you allow our children let them believe this story that you and dad left for me? At first it was fair for me, to take all the blame. Is it also fine with you guys to let the innocent be attacked with false accusations?” Aljur asked.

The post has been deleted after it went viral.

According to some sources, Kylie has been linked to an artist that became the reason for Aljur to question the loyalty of his former partner.

Several days after the breakup, rumors between Aljur and AJ also started when some netizens saw them together walking around and even holding each other’s hands.

In an interview in November 2022, Aljur also said that he’s open to reconciling with Kylie.

“May nagsarado ba? ‘Yung iba nga sinasabi nila wala na talaga pero meron pa ‘di ba? Wala namang nakakaalam eh kung anong mangyayari. Hindi ko nga alam na maghihiwalay kami eh. Hindi ko nga alam na magkakaanak kami?” the actor shared.

However, on January 1, 2023, Kylie has been spotted traveling with another man abroad, who’s suspected to be the artist being linked to the actress since 2021.

It’s not yet known if the revelation of Kylie was the reason for Aljur to finally admit his relationship with AJ.

It can be recalled that Ales and Jorryme went viral last 2022 because of the accusation from the latter that the foreign national was being too sweet with his ‘best friend’ Shaira Mae Boyonas during their wedding day.

Jorryme even posted photos of her husband being too close to Shaira Mae during the special event.

The said issue reached the popular magazine Kapuso Mo, Jessica Soho (KMJS), where Jorryme narrated how they were affected by their separation and her jealousy of Shaira Mae.

Ales never spoke during the said episode of KMJS, but netizens were hoping that the reconciliation and the meeting between Ales and Jorryme would be featured this time.

The foreign national denied the accusation of Jorryme and even said that the latter should get professional help.

Ales announced in November 2022 that he decided to divorce Jorryme, while Mrs. Vodisek also said that she had already accepted that they were not meant for each other.

However, Ales and Jorryme surprised the netizen because one month after, they decided to fix their marriage.

The two seem to have a happy ending and are planning to have a child.

 

Ion Perez, sinabihan diumano ang kontra sa kanyang relasyon kay Vice: “Alangan namang pakainin ko pamilya ko ng buhangin”

Veteran columnist Cristy Fermin couldn’t hide her disappointment towards Vice Ganda after the comedian allegedly called her ‘tsakang chismoso’.

As a response to the criticisms of Vice, Cristy revealed some issues about the comedian including his alleged bad breath.

However, even the partner of the comedian, Ion Perez didn’t evade the wrath of the columnist and even revealed the bad attitude of the model.

According to Cristy, Ion didn’t deny that he was living comfortably because of Vice.

“Matalas ang dila ng Ion. Napakatalas ng dila. Matapos niyang sabihin na may nagtanong daw sa kanya, ‘Bakit ka pumatol kay Vice? Bakit sa beki?’ Anong sagot niya, ‘Alangan namang pakainin ko pamilya ko ng buhangin…’ so aminado siya na comfort, future ang kanyang ano… ‘di ba? Matalas ang dila ng Ion, parang sumasabay na kay Vice,” Cristy said.

It can be recalled that some netizens already questioned if Ion really loved Vice or if the model was just trying to stay with the comedian because of his money.

Vice and Ion met when he auditioned for ‘Kuya Escort’ role for the Miss Q and A segment of Its Showtime.

He eventually became a co-host of the show after fans saw a chemistry between him and Vice.

As of writing, Vice and Ion have yet to give a response to the accusation of Cristy who’s a known critic of the comedian.

 

 

Panunutok ng laser ng mga intsik sa mga miyembro ng Philippine Coast Guard, hindi ikinatuwa ng AFP

Hindi maitago ng Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) ang pagka-insulto sa ginawang panunutok ng military grade laser ng Chinese Coast Guard sa barko ng Philippine Coast Guard.

Nangyari ang insidente sa gitna ng pagsasagawa ng resupply mission ng PCG sa Ayungin Shoal nitong Pebrero 6.

Ayon sa ulat ng PCG ay may ilang miyembro nila ang pansamantalang nabulag dahil sa sobrang liwanag ng laser na itinutok sa kanilang barko.

Malinaw diumanong paglabag sa soberanya ng Pilipinas ang ginawa ng mga intsik sa mga miyembro ng Coast Guard.

“The deliberate blocking of the Philippine government ships to deliver food and supplies to our military personnel on board the BRP SIERRA MADRE is a blatant disregard for, and a clear violation of, Philippine sovereign rights in this part of the West Philippine Sea.” ayon sa PCG.

 

Hindi naman diumano sila masisindak sa ginagawa ng Chinese Coast Guard sa kanila.

“Regardless of this challenging situation, the PCG remains steadfast in protecting the sovereignty and rights of the country and Filipinos in the West Philippine Sea.” sabi pa nila.

Samantala ay naglabas naman ng pahayag ang Chinese foreign ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin at inakusahan ang Pilipinas na diumano’y lumabag sa soberanya ng China.

“We hope the Philippine side will respect China’s territorial sovereignty and maritime rights and interests in the South China Sea and avoid taking any actions that may exacerbate disputes and complicate the situation,” sabi ni Wenbin.
