OPM legends Jim Paredes and Boboy Garovillo of the APO Hiking Society admitted that their performance would never be the same again without the voice of their late-bandmate Danny Javier.

During a press conference, the remaining members of the legendary OPM band said that it was difficult for them to discuss how they would replace Danny’s voice in their next performances.

“It’s difficult … Jim and I would often discuss, ‘Who’s going to do Danny’s parts?’ Walang kapares ang boses ni Danny. So now, we have to put in the effort. But we’re thankful that we’re still healthy enough to project our voices, and still approximate that Apo sound,” Garovillo said.

“Our songs require three voices—we can’t do them with only the two of us. We thought it would be unfair [to the listeners] if the Apo sound doesn’t come out. That sound is really about the harmonies. We work on that. Our two voices will always be there, but we need a third one,”  he added.

While Paredes and Garovillo said that Javier was not replaceable, several fans mentioned several artists that may become substitutes in the place of the late OPM artist.

One of the artists being mentioned by the netizens was Janno Gibbs who’s known for his deep voice.

“It would be nice if a new singer was brought in to replace Danny. Someone with a similar voice range. It would add a new dimension to the music and new life to the Apo Hiking Society.” netizen Maggie said.

“Janno Gibbs,” netizen mark responded.

The suggestion received mixed reaction from the netizens.

There’s no plan for the remaining APO Hiking Society band members to replace Javier.

An individual who helped Willie Revillame return to show business expressed regret after the latter started to remind the people who criticized him about the help he gave them in the past.

In a report by Bandera, the said individual claimed that they saved the career of the television host in the past before rising to stardom as a television host.

But now, the source has already expressed regret after witnessing the attitude of Revillame.

It can be recalled that Revillame used his show on AllTV to address his critics and even reminded the money and properties he gave to them in the past.

Revillame also became a wealthy businessman because of his wise spending of his showbiz earnings.

“Nagsisisi nga ako at ibinalik ko pa siya sa showbiz, nagsisisi ako at hindi ko naipagtanggol ‘yung mga staff, dapat ipinagtanggol ko sila. Dapat pinatanggal ko na lang siya sa show noon pa. Hindi dapat inilalagay sa harap ng kamera ang mga gayang ugali.” the individual said.

It can be recalled that Revillame started as a professional drummer and ‘extra’ in many films before becoming part of several variety shows.

In 1998, he became the primary host of the ABS-CBN show “Magandang Tanghali Bayan.”

However, several suspensions put Revillame’s career in limbo. Even MTRCB urged ABS-CBN to remove Revillame from their station because of his attitude finally.

Revillame reached the height of his career when he became the host of Wowowee in 2005, where he reportedly earned P1-M a day.

The theme of the show giving money to the audience guest worked perfectly, and Revillame’s performance even rivaled GMA’s noontime show Eat Bulaga for several years.

Journalist Ben Tulfo came to defend his friend Willie Revillame from critics after the latter already released an apology.

It can be recalled that Revillame’s statement went viral for reminding some of his critics about the help they received from him.

“Hindi na ako matatakot sa inyong lahat, laban na ito kung laban. Masyado niyo na akong inaapi. Tirahin niyo ako minu-minuto, I don’t care dahil kayo ang may utang na loob sa akin, hindi ako.” Revillame said.

Some of the celebrities who reacted to the statement of Revillame were Ogie Diaz and Cristy Fermin.

Later on, Revillame apologized saying that he was misled by the people surrounding him.

However, some people still kept criticizing the television host despite humbling himself already.

Because of that, Tulfo who’s known for his tough personality defended Revillame and urged the public to stop criticizing the host already.

‘Pag ang tao nagpakumbaba at humingi ng kapatawaran sa kaniyang pagkakamali, ‘wag na natin palawakin pa. ‘Wag na hamunin ng giyera baka kasi may pumasok na totoong mandirigma na kaibigan ni Willie. Ito’y paalaala lang naman, mamili na lang kayo!” Tulfo said.

He also asked the critics of Revillame if they’re only living to gossip about other people’s lives.

Tulfo vowed not to retreat from defending Revillame.

Netizens also expressed support to the television host, highlighting the good deeds of Revillame to the needy.

“Kahit anu pa sabihin nila sir ben, un mga naitulong ni kuya willy sa ibng tao, hindi nila kayang gawin un, laban lang kuya willy” netizen Thoany said.

“Sir alam ko po kung sino ung naghahamon ..napanood ko po sa youtube….kuya will hayaan mo na lang siya matanda na..meron talagang taong ganyan habang tumatanda lalong nagiging salbahe di ko po nilalahat..” netizen Bandeng remarked.

Cristy Fermin revealed the alleged hygiene problem of comedian Vice Ganda in her online show ‘Showbiz Now Na’.

In the said episode, Fermin said that she received some information from her source that they couldn’t withstand the smell coming from the mouth of the popular comedian.

The smell could be compared, according to Fermin to a decomposing mouse and a sewer.

Fermin said that it was her response to Vice after the latter called them  ‘chismosong chaka’

“Napakalapit sa kanya na nagkuwento sa akin, tutal din lang tinatawag mo kaming tatlo na mga chismosong chaka ‘di ba? Okay, hindi ka namin papatulan pero may kukuwento kami. Hindi mo kami mapipigil. Mga taong malapit sa’yo ang nagsasabi na ang hininga mo raw ay amoy-imburnal,” Fermin said.

“Ang sabi niya, ‘Ang lakas-lakas ng loob niya na mamintas. Diyusko! Kung alam n’yo lang, ang tindi ng amoy ng hininga niyan. Parang bulok na daga. Huwag kang mamimintas ng kapwa mo kung may maibabalik din sa iyong resibo,” she added.

It can be recalled that last year, Vice took her dental health to the next level by having a procedure worth P500,000 to fix her teeth.

So some fans of Vice couldn’t believe what Cristy said because the comedian took her dental health seriously.

As of writing, Vice has yet to give a response to the accusations of Cristy.
