Jake Zyrus wows netizens after showcasing his ‘Charice Pempengco’ voice

Jake Zyrus became trending several times on social media because of his alleged failing career abroad since he decided to change his singing style to fit his identity as a transman.

It can be recalled that Jake, formerly Charice Pempengco decided to abandon his Mezzo-Soprano style of singing that made him famous worldwide and started recording songs with lower notes.

Jake’s decision to change his singing style affected his popularity rapidly, and just December last year, it was reported that his concert received poor attendance and bad reviews because people wanted to hear the singing of ‘Charice’ and not the boyish voice of the singer.

However, on February 3, several netizens were surprised by a video of Jake singing a high-noted song and proving that he can still be ‘Charice’ anytime.

Jake sang Making Love Out of Nothing at All by Air Supply in the video with his friends.

It can be heard that Jake can still reach the high notes, and netizens couldn’t stop themselves from asking if the singer had already decided to return to his old singing style.

Some netizens made their comments on the video and encouraged Jake to go back to ‘Charice’.

“You can be a start again in Hollywood!!!!God is good to you, Let the love of God be a center of your plans.” netizen Rose Reyes said.

“This person. REALLY DESERVE A SECOND CHANCE. Goooo lang Jake or Charice. Just let go,” netizen Olecram Rj remarked.

“Theres nothing like your original voice.. u can have jake cyrus with a charice voice..” netizen Geneose commented.

 

 

Yorme Isko Moreno lectures Ogie Diaz about moving on after election: “Hindi natin sila kailangang i-cancel”

A statement of former Manila City Mayor Isko Moreno has gone viral after he gave his thoughts about moving on after he lost the presidential election in 2022.

Moreno invited talent manager Ogie Diaz on the said show, and they talked about different things, including politics.

Diaz then told Moreno that he thought the latter was disappointing because he supported former Vice President Leni Robredo instead of the former Mayor, who’s a part of the showbiz industry.

However, Moreno denied that he resented Diaz, saying that he had already accepted his defeat after seeing the election result.

“Because in a competition may nananalo, may natatalo.” Moreno said. “Ang mga kaibigan mo, hindi mo sila pinupwersahing gustuhin ka. Especially kung leadership naman ang pinag-uusapan kasi kinabukasan nila ‘yun.”

“Showing those attitudes is respecting their beliefs and knowledge about a leader or ‘yung gusto nilang leader. Kaya ako wala along prejudice sa tao na.. “Ayan ang gusto niya eh.” he added.

It can be recalled that until today, some supporters of a losing candidate continued to criticize and ‘cancel’ the people who supported the winner of the election, President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr.

Moreno said that people should stop canceling people just because they chose a different candidate.

“Hindi mo sila kailangang maging kaaway, hindi natin sila kailangang cancel-in, hindi natin sila kailangang awayin, pwersahin. You cannot get the real mandate na may suporta pa after election kung sapilitan lang ginawa.” he stated.

The video went viral on social media, and some netizens praised Moreno for accepting his defeat, unlike specific candidates’ other supporters.

Ogie Diaz reacts to a lawyer calling him ‘ngetpa’: “Oo naman. Ubod ako nang ngetpa.”

Ogie Diaz made a short reaction on after being called ugly by a lawyer on Twitter.

It can be recalled that the well-known talent manager became a guest of former Manila City Mayor Isko Moreno’s online show and they talked about moving on and accepting the result of the election.

Ogie may be referring to Atty. Ferdinand Topacio’s comment says that Ogie can’t relate to their statement of Moreno because he’s ugly.

“Pa’no makaka-relate si Ogie, eh ngetpa siya. ”Ā 

In his tweet, Ogie just referred Topacio to as ‘Atty. Gasulito’ and admitted that he’s really ugly.

“Sabi ni attorney gasulito, ngetpa daw ako. Oo naman. Ubod ako nang ngetpa. Ang importante, walang nagsabing gwapo ka.”Ā Ogie said.

Netizens even shared their thoughts about Atty. Topacio.

“Nako, yang si Atty na yan, binangga kotse ko sa Lawton Ave some years back. Pagbaba ng kotse, ang sbe saken, ā€œhello! Do you know me? Iā€™m Atty Topacio.ā€ Sbe ko, ā€œNo, i dont know youā€. Kala niya ata papalamon ako ng buhay sknya. Ayon siningil ko.”Ā netizen @sml52262318 said.

“Hindi na nga siya gwapo, hindi na siya matangkad, hindi na siya matalino, hindi siya funny and all of those things can be negligible IF NOT FOR THE FACT NA HINDI RIN SIYA MABUTING TAO,” netizen @moaningdata remarked.

Topacio has yet to respond to Ogie’s comment.

It can be remembered that Topacio commented on Ogie’s post last year after the latter complained about the price of canned sardines in the country.

“Saan ka nakatira. Padadalhan kita ng ulo ng isda.” Topacio told Ogie.

Gabriel Valenciano broke his silence after months of not giving any opinion about different issues in the country.

It can be recalled that it was reported that the management of AllTV included Willie’s show Wowowin in the flagship programs that needed to stop temporarily to prevent the continuous cash drain.

The popularity of e-wallets in the Philippines has been increasing in recent years. This can be attributed to the increasing adoption of mobile phones and internet connectivity and the convenience and security that e-wallets offer for digital transactions.

Even simple ‘Sari-Sari stores’ already became mini remittance centers because of the popularity of e-wallets.

Because of the increasing usage of e-wallets in the country, some people with bad intentions have already targeted mini stores by doing different modus.

Netizen Paul Ollie shared a video of a store owner who almost became a victim of a modus where someone would pose as a customer who wanted to reload an e-wallet.

The said customer wanted the store owner to send the money first before she gave the money.

Fortunately, the store owner quickly felt something was wrong, so she refused the customer’s demand.

According to the store owner, the customer wanted her to reload P10,000, so she became extra careful and asked for the payment first.

However, the customer didn’t follow the store owner’s request and started talking to someone on the phone.

The customer insisted on sending the money first, but the store owner refused.

“Wala naman akong nakikitang pera sa inyo bakit ko i-process? Baka mamaya i-send ko to tapos wala pala kayong pera diyan,” the store owner asked.

After several minutes, the customer left and just thanked the store owner.

Netizens already became suspicious of the customer and praised the store owner for being smart.

Donnalyn Bartolome gained a different reaction from the netizens after sharing her thoughts about pregnancy.

In a deleted post, Donnalyn encouraged the women experiencing pregnancy to avoid being insecure about the changes in their appearance.

“Maganda talaga pag binuntis. Kidding aside maganda parin kayo mommies. Hindi magbabago yun,” Donnalyn who never experienced pregnancy said.

Some of her fans reacted to her post, and some of them still felt insecure.

“Grabe sobrang ganda niyo po. Nakakainsecure po talaga, lalo pag tumitingin na ako sa salamin after birth,” the fan said.

The influencer told the netizen not to be insecure, saying that her fan may be more beautiful than her because no one wanted to make her pregnant.

Donnalyn’s response to the netizen received a mixed reaction from the netizens.

“Mommy isipin mo nalang binuntis ka. Sobrang ganda mo siguro. Ako walang bumubuntis. Parang talo moko sa ganda wag ka na ma-insecure diyan ha. I’m sure maganda ka. Smile ka na yiee,” she said.

It seems that she was already careful this time to receive backlash again after she quickly deleted her post about pregnancy.

However, this time some netizens defended Donnalyn, saying that some of the critics of the influencer were already overreacting.

“I think mali lang ang pag construct Ng sentence at ang words na ginamit..but the thought was to inspireĀ single mom to be positive in dealing the situation.” netizen Jan said.

“Mga tao akala mo perfect. Akala mo matitino sa totoong buhay, matino lang naman sa fb. Lahat ginagawang issue, hindi nalang magsalita yung tao kasi may mapupuna naman kayo palagi. Asikasuhin ang sarili wag iba uy!” netizen Ederlyn remarked.
