The Julia Clarete-Illiac Diaz-Angelica Jones Love Triangle

I relegated this issue to the "meh" bin coz I thought this was nothing more than a love triangle gone bad.

The issue involved a girl from Eat Bulaga, a guy who builds houses and a girl "who's not GRO" and so is now a provincial board member.

For me for you the issue has suddenly becoming interesting because now money, charity and elected officials are involved.

Before we get to that, let's get this out of the way: it's not true that there was a hair-pulling incident between Julia Clarete and Angelica Jones in a church after the former found out that her boyfriend is stepping out on her with the latter.. So...

The issue is getting juicier and juicier with neither party refusing to shut up and back down. Milking it for what its worth...

Illiac Diaz has accused Angelica Jones and her stagemother, Beth Jones, of failing to produce documentation to show the proper disbursement of funds for their water bottle school under Illac's My Shelter Foundation.

Of course Angelica and her mother invited reporters, entertainment writers mind you, to defend herself. basically saying the provincial government has not released funds through her and some of the money came from her own pocket.

I don't know who's telling the truth here and I don't care. What I want to find out is why Angelica keeps getting denied by men she claims to have dated. The first was Bobby Yan and now Illiac Diaz. Angelica told those who cares to hear that she and Illiac dated a while back. Illiac denied it and probably was laughing inside while saying 'not on your life.'

Angelica, despite being good looking and tisay, looks baduy, bakya and yes, cheap. I also get a desperate vibe from her and her stagemother - Desparate for fame and money.

Now Angelica is a board member of Laguna. Her first try she failed. I thought Angelica would finally disappear into obscurity. But no. She tried for a second time and this time winning!

Cheap issues keep hounding Angelica Jones, or she keeps finding it. I guess class in ingrained? And I guess an elected post can't get you respectability?

Mariel Rodriguez and Toni Gonzaga Are At War

Since Toni Gonzaga is promoting Kokey@Ako, we found out that she has an ongoing rift with her friend Mariel Rodriguez.

But Toni is keeping mum on the true cause of her rift with her erstwhile BFF. But clarifies it did not stem from her aborted movie with Robin Padilla.

"Tapos na kasi, so maigi na ‘yong tapos na. Ayaw ko na. Kung ano na ‘yong mga narinig ko, kung ano na ‘yong mga nalaman ko, akin na lang ‘yon. Huwag n’yo na siyang tanungin sa akin."

However, just a day after Toni's attempts to be secretive and vague came many speculations in tabloids and TV showbiz news programs about the caused of the rift between Toni and Mariel Rodriguez.

Toni allegedly gots the hurt after she learned that Mariel calls her "duling" behind her back. To make matters worst, Mariel imitates her hosting style with her eyes cross.

Well, friends should be above physical flaws. I believe that. But the truth really hurts. Ain't that right, Toni? I've written in this blog that there's something something in Toni eyes, which I suspect is the reason why her fans or non-fans claim that she's suplada.

And Mariel... is a dumbass. If you are childish enough to make fun of your BFF behind her back, then you should also be smart enough not to get caught. But then again in all my years I haven't encountered a childish person who is also smart.

Word is Toni is not the only victim of Mariel's cattiness and bitchiness. There's also KC Concepcion. Yes, the megastar's daughter. Mariel, the insekyora, allegedly questioned why KC was given Simply KC when she is the better host of the two.

Where Mariel got the information that she is a good host, we can only blame to one or two fans who previously frequented Wowowee. And please, KC may not possess the charisma of either of her parent but KC's fingernails are unarguably prettier than Mariel's fez.

Marian Rivera and Bela Padilla End Rift

The catfight between Marian Rivera and Bela Padilla, the costars from GMA-7's Endless Love, ended before it even begun.

Marian Rivera and Bela Padilla, together with their respective entourages, met at a closed door meeting with GMA 7 executive Wilma Galvante to patch things up between them.

After 10-15 minutes inside, Marian with her manager left without granting interviews. Bela stayed inside the office, with a satisfied look on her face, according to sources. Marian reportedly left immediately to go to a hospital where boyfriend Dingdong Dantes, allegedly the center of the catfight between the two ladies, is laid up.

What promised to be an epic battle between good and evil turned out to be a dud!

Just as Bela's manager Claire de la Fuente and Bela's relative Eva Carino (ang atribi na inang yan nina BB Gandanghari and Robin Padilla), have entered the fray. Then a long-winded written official statement from Dingdong defending Marian and confessing his undying love for her, and ... that's it. Booo!

Marian Rivera vs Bela Padilla

Bela Padilla, who plays Yumi in the teleserye Endless Love staring Marian Rivera and Dingdong Dantes, is using the oldest trick in the book to catapult her to instant stardom - riding the coattails of someone more famous.

As the story goes, Marian Rivera has been acting like a bitch marking her territory by harassing Bela Padilla on the set of their Endless Love teleserye. The reason is that Bela is getting too close for comfort to Marian's beau Dingdong Dantes in their scenes for Endless Love.

Some of the sweets Marian allegedly reserves only for Bella were: "pangit, "bobo umarte" and "maputi lang."

The incident is not isolated as Marian and gang (that is Nadine Samonte and Jana Dominguez) are also into it, constantly bullying Bela with harsh words.

Allegedly Bela is traumatized and is now too afraid to report on set because of an incident in which Marian locked Bela and herself inside a CR after ordering people inside to go out.

With Marian's face allegedly only inches from Bela's face, Marian uttered, "Ang landi-landi mo! Ang pangit-pangit mo! Kahit kailan, huwag mong iiisipin na mai-insecure ako sa ‘yo! Hindi ka magugustuhan ni Dingdong kasi diring-diri ‘yan kapag may eksena kayo!

I can imagine Marian Rivera saying these exact same words. But is Marian stupid enough or arrogant enough to say these things in front of witnesses? Jury is still out on that one.

May psychology ba si Marian? Insekyora siya to the highest level. If she is confident of Dingdong's love, why the scene?

Marian graduated but never left high school. Fighting with a girl over a boy? C'mon on now. That it so high school. So aside from being an insekyora, cheap pa si Marian.

Marian is just being a true Cavitena - palaban and matapang - in defense of the various negative publicity that she has been involved in in the past. You can only use this defense up to a certain point. As a person goes higher in life - be it social or economic, one has to learn to combine being palaban and matapang with class. In Marian's case, she's nothing but a palengkera and butangera.

Marian is another one of those people with money who can't buy class and breeding. So it seems the girl has left Cavite but Cavite has never left the girl.

Claudine Barretto: Devout Born Again Christian and Earth Mother

The end in the Claudine Barretto vs Angelica Panganiban saga is still out of sight, Face to Face with Amy Perez should really think about doing a segment about it. What a historic, not to mention ratings-topping collaborative effort among GMA 7, ABS-CBN and TV5 that would be.

If not for a series of tweets from Claudine Barretto, we wouldn't have known that a fight a-brewing between herself and Angelica. It is also in her tweets that I discovered Claudine got good marks in Christian Living and Right Conduct in school.

Angelica has been called "traydor na kaibigan," "isang daga na tago ng tago," and somebody "[na] baka masunog pag pinag pray over."

Claudine was fuming mad that she fired off 21 tweets within a period of more than 17 hours. That's how mad she was. If tweets were bullets, imagine where Angelica is now.

One of the more nasty twits concerned Aneglica's relationship with Derek. In a nutshell, the twit was something to the effect of "nilalaspag lang si Angelica" and "kung pakakasalan ni Derek si Angelica."

So now the latest is that Angelica's home studio ABS-CBN has assigned two people to guard her body because of threats to her life made by Claudine.

If you're still not convinced that Claudine is such a devout Christian, here's Claudine's honeyed words for Angelica in their phone conversation: "Papatayin kita. Wawasakin ko mukha mo. You don't deserve to live. Suntukan tayo ngayon na."

In the words of Oda Mae Brown (the psychic from Ghost), "Angelica, you in danger, gurl."

Claudine was threatening to sue Angelica but it was Angelica, or Angelica's lawyers, who sent a demand letter to Claudine asking her to desist from speaking untruths about their client and to issue an apology for the libelous and slanderous remarks she made against their client.

Claudine is insane! She has made her Twitter account private. This is after she outdid even Clara making Mara's life miserable. Ye, the horse has left the barn. Insanity!

Claudine Barretto vs Angelica Panganiban Is Heating Up

Ready your popcorn, sit back and relax because the catfight between Claudine Barretto and Angelica Panganiban that started on Twitter has all indications of going all the way to court.

Angelica allegedly made in known to anyone who wants to listen that Claudine committed an act of homewreakery is with Martin Castro, the best friend of Derek Ramsay and a new friend of Claudine's husband Raymart Santiago.

Angelica is also on Claudine's hit list because Angelica apparently has many things so say about Gretchen Barretto, not all of them flattering - well before they became besties.

Claudine's proof of Angelica's backstabbing ways:

"Kinonfirm na ng apat na tao ito sa akin," [tungkol sa pagkakalat diumano ni Angelica ng kuwentong ang nakatatandang aktres ay may affair sa kaibigan ni Derek]

Angelica on what she really thinks of Claudine and Gretchen:

Ikinagalit din daw ni Claudine ang maanghang na pasaring ni Angelica laban sa kanyang kapatid na si Gretchen sa Twitter. Nakarating din daw kay Claudine na sinabi ni Angelica sa ilang mutual friends na, "Pareho lang daw kaming magkapatid. Kulang na lang sabihin niyang "kabit."

Kabit is Gretchen Barretto, so is Claudine, if she is indeed fuck buddies with Derek Ramsay's married besties.

Angelica was cold on Claudine's attempts to talk it out with her. I really think Claudine should have suggested that she and Angelica have it out via Twitter since Angelica seemed to have a strong affinity to this form of communication.

The cast of characters in this drama is growing - there's Angelica's boyfriend Derek Ramsay, Claudine's husband Raymart Santiago, the center of it all, a certain Martin Castro, Johnny Manahan of Star Magic, and Gretchen Barretto.

Johnny Manahan on the former ward's plan to sue his current ward:

"Go Ahead! Sue, Claudine. Make our Day! Para bellum."

Johnny Manahan on Angelica's silence on his catfight with Claudine:

"The only reason Angelica has not come out to defend herself against Claudine's accusations is because what she has to say would be so compelling and devastating to Claudine's career. That is why she has chosen the path of silence. Angelica still has compassion for Claudine and rejects all the falsehoods attributed to her."

Gretchen Barretto on Claudine's claims: "ako ang laging naglilinis ng kalat ng kapatid mo."

"No, no, no...that's not true! Walang ganyang kuwento na ipinagtatanggol ako... Yung away ni Angelica Panganiban and Claudine, wala akong kinalaman sa away na yon at all - walang kinalaman."

Gretchen on the war between her sister and her new besties:

"Claudine is obviously going through a tough time - in all aspects of her life. I pray that I have more patience and a little more love for her. Pilitin na lang nating intindihin. Although, it's hurtful. I cannot deny that her words are very hurtful, but as a sister I still choose to understand and I still choose to bear the hurt."

What Gretchen is really saying is aburido si Claudine these days because from one of the country's leading ladies to a teleserye queen with a flop teleserye. Bitter Ocampo si Claudine because her ate Gretchen's teleserye is a top-rater while she is mother role material.

Well, this catfight is far from over. Let's let them fight it out in court para magkaalamanan na kung kabit si Claudine o hinde. Yun lang naman ang dapat abangan dun.

Robin Padilla Is Father of the Year

Liezl Sicangco, ex-wife of Robin Padilla, has made it into the Padilla clan's enemy hit list with her revelations of Robin's father-of-the-year worthy style of child rearing.

Liezl came out of hibernation in Australia's Gold Coast to whine about Robin's shortcomings.

On her 10-year-old son Ali who is currently living with his Dad:

"Matagal ko na siyang gustong kunin talaga. Four months ago, nagkasakit yan, e. Naoperahan, apendicitis. Kasi si Ali, hindi nagsasabi na masakit na pala tiyan niya. Kasi ang turo sa kanya ng papa niya “Bawal umiyak, you have to be strong, you have to feel the pain.” Tama ba yon?"

On Robin's words of wisdom to a 10-year-old who is supposed to be playing Wii or watching cartoons on Disney Channel:

"Si Ali kasi mismo ang nagkuwento sa akin na, “Papa said I can have four wives when I grow up...” Ten years old, sinasabihan nang ganoon!"

On how Robin feels about school, as in education:

"Actually, ang nag-ano talaga ng galit ko, noong nag Pilipinas Win na Win siya. Nakikita ko lagi sa YouTube ang anak ko na nasa TV and almost two weeks hindi nag-aaral ang bata! E, si Robin, nakikinig yan sa ten-year old. Pag sinabi ni Ali na “I don’t want to go to school,” sasabihin niyan, “Then don’t go! Si enjoy life yan, e.

Her feelings on Mariel Rodriguez, Robin's girlfriend:

"Ako, walang kaso sa akin kung sila. Noon ko pa alam na sila. Hindi ako galit kay Mariel. Kaya ko siyang kausapin any time. The problem is between me and Robin. Nagkataon lang talaga na nakapag-air ako ng side ko, habang pinag-uusapan sila ni Mariel diyan. Kaya ang dating siguro diyan, bitter daw ako. God knows, hindi ako bitter."

Robin's response to Liezl's revelations:

"Siguro. Hindi niya nga ako kinakausap. Pero alam ko galit yon. Hindi niya sinasagot ang mga texts ko. Basta may nagte-text sa akin nang kung anu-ano...feeling ko siya din yon."

Team Sicangco all the way. I'm not sure if Liezl's claims are valid. I really don't care to find out. Robin strikes me as a major closeted mysogynist pig, so for that alone I am for whoever is on the other side of Team Robin.

After Manny Pacquiao vs Miguel Cotto Fight, the Next Attraction is Jinkee Pacquiao vs Krista Ranillo

Now that we know Miguel Cotto really bleeds like a stuck pig, (we have Manny Pacquiao to thank for that) the next showdown everyone is waiting for is between Jinkee Pacquiao and Krista Ranillo because it is all over town that the sexy actress is Manny’s current stalker. The jury’s still out on whether the stalking has Manny’s permission.

Curious minds want to know who is Manny’s companion for the private celebration for his win – Krista or Jinkee?

The video above shows Manny Pacquiao with a mystery woman after his live appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live. Krista and family arrived in Las Vegas Nov 3. Jinkee joined her husband on Nov 9.


SMS from one of Jinkee's friends, lifted from Julius Babao's twitters.

Ang sabi sa tsismis, Krista Ranillo is in Manny Pacquiao’s new movie Wapakman (or however you spell that word) but the connection goes deeper than that.

Manny Pacquiao was holed up in Baguio for a number of weeks to set up a training camp and Krista was allegedly there. Ask Angel Locsin, who showed up to where Manny and his entourage were staying to request for personal things that she can auction off for the Ondoy victims.

Allegedly, Angel Locsion saw a girl waving at her from one of the rooms. It was only later that she knew that it was Krista she saw.

Krista and her family were also on hand to watch the fight between Manny Pacquiao and Miguel Cotto at MGM Grand last No 15.

It was Manny who personally invited Krista and her family. Did you hear that resounding slap on Jinkee’s cheek upon reading that little tidbit?

According to those in the know, Krista’s acting the slutwhore with the Pacman has her dad Matt Ranillo’s blessing. Allegedly, the family is quite broke. There are also rumors that Matt is running again in the 2010 elections so he’s insinuating himself in Manny’s inner circle hoping for what Manny can do for him, not what he can do for Manny.

I’m just musing out loud but what the heck is Matt doing running again in the elections when he’s broke? I hope it’s because of his fervent desire to serve the public?

What’s happened to Matt Ranillo? From playing Jesus Christ and Lorenzo Ruiz and now to pimp daddy?!

Let’s try to guess if there is any truth to the Manny-Krista relationship, shall we? Before Manny’s Nov 15 fight Manny and Jinkee allegedly had a major row over Krista. At the thanksgiving mass for Manny’s win, Jinkee cried buckets when the priest was talking about family. She was dodging Manny’s attempts at comfort and instead turned to her lady friend on the left.

Manny, when asked to confirm/deny, said “no comment.” Kaya daw tayo hindi umuunlad dahil nangingialam tayo ng buhay ng iba. Uhm, kung hindi kayo tayo manood ng laban nya kasi hindi naman tayo ang nagiging bilyonaryo?

Now I’m waiting for news that Krista has built her own mansion, opened a restaurant or boutique, with her own money, of course, “supposedly.”

Let's Get Physical

That's what Lorna Tolentino and Chin-Chin Gutierrez did in their confrontation scene for the ABS-CBN soap Dahil May Isang Ikaw.

Lorna and Chin-Chin play mommy to Jericho Rosales and Kristine Hermosa, respectively, in the soap.

Who was at the receiving end of that very realistic sampalan scene? Well, the script called for Lorna and Chin-Chin to slap each other twice. But Lorna got the brunt of it because Chin-Chin hit Lorna below the lips and left them bruised. Not content, Chin-Chin slapped Lorna so hard that her ring got caught in Lorna’s hair, pulling some of it in the process.

Go Green!

Stunned, Lorna continued with the scene even if she was in pain. Per the script, Lorna was supposed to only scream “Paalisin ang babaing ‘yan!” at Chin-Chin. However, the pain made Lorna momentarily forget that she's a grieving widow and uttered these lines instead: “Paalisin ang p----- g i---g babaing ‘yan!” and instinctively kicked Chin-Chin in the leg.

I don't watch Dahil May Isang Ikaw (c'mon it's Jericho Rosales (overrated) and Kristine Hermosa (mental)) but I saw this particular scene because the blogging gods and goddesses were smiling at me that night.

The profanity from Lorna must have been blipped out because I didn't hear it. The scene was abruptly cut, so I would tend to believe that the scene got so realistic, people at the shot entered the frame to separate their lead actresses.

I thought Chin-Chin’s mellow, a peace-sign exhibitionist, if you will. I thought Chin-Chin so loves nature her sweat is green. Chin-Chin got the cover of Time Asia for her green activism. She's known to commune with nature, even talk to plants. I read that vegetarian tends to be sanctimonious, anorexic and twatty but I just found out going green could make you go postal.

So what got into Chin-Chin Gutierrez? Aww, she probably found out that Lorna abused a plant in her garden so she meted out her own justice by getting a piece of Lorna.

Chin-Chin reportedly apologized after a while and even prayed over Lorna, you know the “hand over head thingy while you mumble?”

If I were Lorna, I would have taken several plants hostage and demand that Chin-Chin apologize sincerely, or else.

This may not be the end of the Lorna vs Chin-Chin saga because Lorna is not amused, yo.

Expect to see Chin-Chin’s character meet a car accident where her body will not be recognizable. Also expect to see a reincarnation of Chin-Chin’s character in another actress, who according to the script, had to have a plastic surgery to change her face and exact her revenge on Lorna’s character.

Lorna will emerge triumphant and the old Chin-Chin character in a straight jacket is escorted by men in white to a white padded cell with no windows. The End.

In the actual, Lolit Solis, the manager of Lorna Tolentino, is waiting for a lone Chin-Chin in the back alley of ABS-CBN ready to ask for anything na mahaharbat.

The Plastic War

I'm not talking about the battle over who can sell the most Tupperware products. I'm talking about a brewing catfight between Mikaela Bilbao vs Gretchen Barreto and Pops Fernandez.

But first who is Mikaela Bilbao? If you tuned in on the first few episodes of the current Celebrity Duets, you wouldn't have missed this lady in a tanga costume, doing what I think is singing. As soon I saw her face full frontal, I thought "the Helen of Troy of our generation." Later I found out that she is the genius behind "Philosophy" by Mikaela Bilbao, a beauty and wellness center. Who knew, right?

Alas, Mikaela dropped out of the competition because according to her doctor, the intense heat from the studio's kleig lights is bad for her complexion. No, according to Mikaela the contest is putting too much pressure on her plastic mug on her health.

Well, anyway...

The root of the catfight is money, or in this case the promise thereof, and it all started from a text sent to Ana Abiera, a close friend of Gretchen Barreto and Nadia Montenegro.

Gretchen Barreto and Nadia Montenegro are former best buds. Nadia Montenegro is now an endorser of Philosophy for their weight-loss technology.

Mikaela got embroiled in the controversy because she "allegedly" was the sender of the malicious text.

The connection is with Dodie Puno, the brother of DILG secretary Ronnie Puno; the alleged new rich man in Gretchen Barreto's life (not that Tonyboy Cojuangco is out of the picture); and the executive director of the Road Board, the agency handling the dispensing, that is supposedly the responsible dispensing, of billions of pesos of road users' tax.

I didn't know Gretchen and Pops are so hard up that they need to dip their fingers in government contracts? I read that Nadia is, but that's neither here nor there because her name was not in the text.

But I think Gretchen really needs the funds wherever she can get it because there's always new branded shoes, clothes and bags to get her hands on and the shops will not wait for her.

Gretchen has said she's in consultation with her lawyers to advise her on what to do with the creature who dared maligned her name in public.

Mikaela has appeared on a number of showbiz talk shows to defend her good name. To quote her "hindi ako ipinanganak para matakot sa isang Gretchen Barreto."

Hmm, them are fighting words. But I expect to see these same people making bese-beso in social-climbing events in no time. As they say, friends who do plastic surgery together, flock together. Well, I'm mixing my idioms, but you get my drift.

Mikaela dropped other bombshells. Like it was Pops Fernandez who called her up to ask for help on a government contract. Another one: Gretchen, Pops and Ruffa went on a vacation in Bohol with certain top government officials.

I don't who's telling the truth; I don't really care to find out. What is clear is that it is unethical for any of these ladies to make commissions on government contracts on the virtue of one or two of them having an intimate connection with the person who has the power to award the winning bid.

Mikaela is encouraging Gretchen to take the dispute in court where she can reveal all she knows.

The stakes are high. I wish they’d get a judge who is creative, one who would rule that whoever losses will have to choices for punishment: spend an inordinate of time under extreme heat or allow one flick on the loser’s nose.

The complete text message sent to Gretchen Barretto's friend, Ana Abiera:

First text: "Kung meron mas malala kaysa sa mga bagyo na pinagdaanan ng bansa natin is that may konting katotohanan sa
sinasabi ni Sen. Miriam Defensor pati ang mga artistang sina Gretchen Baretto at Pops Fernandez ay kasama na nakikikomisyon
sa mga proyekto. Mas matindi pa sa buwaya ang mga ito at pati source ng pinahanap nila ay na-123 nila. Kung ebidensya ang
pagbabatayan mismong sulat kamay ni Gretchen ang percentage ng komisyon sa road safety at road works ng mga raket ni Dodie.

"Alam ni Gretchen at Pops kung sino ako. Matagal akong nananahimik at nagpapagaling pero ayaw nila akong tantanan. Puwes sa
senado kami magkikita. Wala akong kinakatakutan kahit sino pa. Alam ko Ana na humingi kayo ng 500k na advance sa Serena
kasama mo si Gretchen. I recorded my conversation with Jenny Munar.

Second text: "Pakisabi sa dalawa mong alaga, mga putang ina sila! Hindi ko sila tatantanan at hindi ko sila uurungan. Mismong
tatay ko binaril ko, mismong anak ko hindi ko inuurungan. Sino sa tingin nyo kayo? Gusto kong malaman kung gaano kayo
katapang. Nananahimik ang buhay ko pa-letter-letter pa kayo. Antayin ninyo ang sagot ko.

Third text: "Tingnan ko lang kung anong presinto kayo ni Dodie babagsak sa mga raket ninyo."

DOJ Dismisses P25-M Libel Suit Filed By Richard Gutierrez Against PEP

Let's be real. Richard Gutierrez is perfection face-wise, pero bano umarte.

The Department of Justice has dismissed the P25 Million libel suit filed against PEP by actor Richard Gutierrez due to "lack of probable cause."

The libel suit against PEP, editor-in-chief Joan Maglipon, managing editor Karen Pagsolingan and staff writer Bong Godinez was originally filed at the Makati Regional Trial Court, but was later transferred to the DOJ.

The libel suit stemmed from a story that appeared on PEP, alleging that Richard Gutierrez had altercation with another actor, Michael Flores, during the birthday bash of director Mark Reyes in Mar 2009. Richard Gutierrez cried foul over reports that there was "gun-toting" involved.

But wait. Moneyger Anabelle Rama, Richard's Monster Mom, is not finished sticking pins in Jo-An Maglipon voodoo dolls. According to Anabelle,"hindi pa tapos ang laban."

Anabelle Rama's statement in full:

"May naglakad sa kaso dahil sa Makati kami nag-file, pero isang araw pa lang ang hearing, biglang nalipat sa DOJ ang kaso. Bakit hindi pinagbigyan ang fiscal ng Makati na maimbestigahan muna niya ang kaso? Wala bang tiwala ang DOJ sa mga prosecutor ng Makati? Bakit kinuha sa Makati ang kaso? Nagulat na lang kami dahil biglang sa DOJ ang hearing. May dumukot sa kaso.

"Sayang ang DOJ Prosecutor na si Sytat [Mary Jane W. Sytat, acting city prosecutor ng Makati City]. Siya ang humawak sa kaso ni Richard. Nagpadala siya sa mga sulsol. Bata pa naman siya. Malayo pa sana ang kanyang mararating. Paano pa siya magiging Justice? Hindi niya ni-review ang kaso dahil kung ni-review niya ang kaso, hindi matatalo si Richard.

"At yung lawyer ng PEP, alam ko na ngayon kung bakit tatawa-tawa siya. Alam niya na madi-dismiss ang kaso dahil nilakad niya. Ayokong banggitin ang pangalan niya. Basta, malaki ang kanyang mata at malalaki ang litid niya sa leeg!"

I believe Anabelle Rama. The case is far from over because from her statements above someone has grounds to file a libel case against her.

Anabelle runs her mouth off every time she’s interviewed. She’s fond of telling it’s just her being frank and truthful. Someone should tell her it’s her being arrogant and ill-mannered. Truth be told, she and her manners are not fit for society. She gets away with it because she has money, therefore there are many around her who are more than willing to kiss her ass.

Don't you just wish Zorro's horse could give Anabelle Rama a little kick in the head to make her realize that just because her family's production company is called Royal Era and Ruffa Gutierrez won second princess in the Ms World competition many moons ago, doesn’t mean they are royalty? It just means Anabelle is ilusyunada.

Sue-happy Anabelle Rama must be fuming mad because her grubby hands were thisclose to getting that P25 M and it was snatched away.

That millions of pesoses could have been put to good use by the Gutierrez family, like funding Richard Gutierrez’s acting lessons and supporting the freeloaders in that family.

Anabelle Rama is confident that “kakampi namin ang Diyos.” Really now. Don’t you think God has better things to do than take the side of a person who’s fond of taking His name in vain?

Martin Nievera vs Jomari Yllana Part 2

I was so disappointed when it appeared that the Martin Nievera-Jomari Yllana was over after Martin refused to make a rebuttal to Jomari Yllana's statement in Cool Center. But in his interview on SNN (Showbiz News Ngayon) Martin finally let it all out. I love Martin again simply because he uttered these beautiful words:

On whether he was hurt by Jomari's statement on Cool Center, Martin's catty remarks were: "No. He was reading it, so whoever wrote it [gives a thumb up sign]. Rawr!

Martin further added that he will never work with Jomari Yllana again. Well, whose brilliant idea was it to do a concert again with your ex-wife, Pops Fernandez? I think it was made to rile up those hibernating Martin and Pops fans who are still hoping for a reconciliation. Fans, give it up. If you still can't, Martin more or else said "I never thought about it [reconciliation] before, during and after the concert." Martin, keep that thought, well until Pops' lips return to their normal state.

Martin interview was held in Boracay, the site of the 2009 Goma Cup, in which he is a celebrity participant.

Update on the Anaballe Rama, Richard Gutierrez and PEP Saga

There have been several developments on the issue involving Anabelle Rama, Richard Gutierrez and PEP. Anabelle Rama has filed a P25 M lawsuit for grave slander against Wilma Galvante. Richard Gutierrez has also filed a P25 M libel suit against PEP for uploading an article about an alleged scuffle involving Richard Gutierrez and Michael Flores.

Wow, if Anabelle loses in her suit against Wilma Galvante, she will be P8 M poorer. However, she and her family would be P50 M richer if they win the lawsuits against Wilma Galvante and PEP. I wish a judge would immediately reject these ridiculous, multi-million lawsuits for the income-generating schemes that they are.

The Gutierrez family has also issued a cease-and-desist letter demanding that PEP immediately stop from writing articles about her main money maker, Richard Gutierrez. They read PEP and saw from the comments from PEPsters that public sympathy is not on their side. It is all Anabelle Rama's doing. There are malicious commenters, trolls they are called, but in general PEPsters are an intelligent bunch who see through Anabelle Rama's bullshit.

If Gutierrezes somehow succeed in shutting down PEP, those commenters will find a new forum. You want to stop a huge section of the Internet community from commenting against Richard Gutierrez? Good luck with that. Ask Edu Manzano if he has made any progress in shutting down the online downloading of movies, videos over at P2P portals.

When I see Anabelle Rama on TV, I have both hands up in front of me with the middle fingers extended. She's probably coming from the right place in her desire to protect her money makers, but she, her big mouth and her bullshit are the one turning the public away from Richard Gutierrez.

The Gutierrezes are all celebrities, constantly in the public eye. In my mind, that makes them fair game. If they don't want negative stories and comments to be attributed to them, then they should move out to Antarctica and watch while the glaciers melt. I think the only people who will miss them are showbiz folks who have received gifts and money from them at one time or another, and of course the Gutierrez family's very own brown noser, Jun Lalin.

I watched Anabelle Rama being interviewed on Showbiz Central, and immediately I noticed that something was amiss. It took me a while to figure out that she is not her usual loud and obnoxious self, possibly upon the advise of her lawyers to gain public sympathy. It was a tamer Anabelle Rama, but she lets out acerbic words aimed at PEP's lawyer, who was earlier interviewed on StarTalk, once in a while. Well, has any of us seen a leopard change its spots? As long as Anabelle remains a palengkera, bungagera, pala-away, mukhang pera, then all is right in the universe. An epiphany, even a religious one, will not turn Anabelle Rama into a saint, I don't think.

I just had a thought. If Richard Gutierrez is suing PEP because of a noble obligation to fight for the rights of other actors who have been victims of false journalism, or if he just wants to make a point, why doesn't he sue for P1, or better yet announce that the money will be given to charity? It's not unheard of, but probably first in the Philippines.

Sexbomb Dancers Involved in Boracay Fight

Sexmbomb dancers Rochelle Pangilinan and Aifa Medina got into a fight with a guy at the Crystal Sand Resort in Boracay. Apparently, Rochelle, Aifa and a friend played music too loudly, prompting the guy to approach their table and say something like, "nandito sa Boracay para magpahinga." That should have been the end of it, but when the guy turned to return to his table, he overheard someone saying, "bakla." This irked the guy into throwing a bottled water at Aifa, allegedly. Before the bottle could hit its target, Aifa, threw a glass at the guy's face. To cut the story short, dun na lang sila lahat nagpaliwanag sa pulis.

Did I fall asleep for a week, woke up just now to find out that the Holy Week is over? Why are there so many dumbasses getting involved in scuffles in Boracay? First, there was commercial model Andrew Wolff, then a beauty titlist at the recently concluded Bb Pilipinas in a hair pulling incident with another Boracay guest. Now, here are the sexbomb dancers.

First of all, you sinners out there are having the time of your life in the beach, while some us here in front of the PC have to refrain ourselves from watching PORN in deference to the Holy Week. Can you do a Bisita Iglesia in Boracay? Can you do the station of the cross from island to island? NO, because it's a fucking party place.

To the dumbass guy who got face planted with a glass for his hypocrisy and self-righteousness, that is your reward for coming to Boracay for relaxation. You can now relax in your room, take care of those stitches, while rest of Boracay party on. Yeah!

As for the more dumbass Sexbomb dancers, jail time should be the reward for their skankness, narrow-mindness and homophobia. Calling a guy "gay" for telling you to turn down the music? You're one of those women who expect to get a pass from insulting, name calling a guy just because you happen to be females.

Oh well, on the next cat fight in Boracay next year.

JC de Vera's Career on Hold

JC de Vera's budding career has been put on the freezer for now, may be forever, as his moneyger Anabelle Rama and GMA Network executive Wilma Galvante fight it out in court. Well, the catfight between Anabelle and Wilma started because of JC, i.e. the incident during the story conference for a TV series that JC was supposed to do.It is not surprising that JC is currently a frozen delight, considering that he has decided to back his manager via a sworn statement that was included in Anabelle's counter affidavit to Wilma's lawsuit. In it, he stated that he was harassed that led to his confusion, and that the GMA executive badmouthed Anabelle to his face. He also denied crying during the story conference, which led to his being brought into the office of Wilma Galvante. However, he was previously quoted as saying along the vein of , "there's nothing wrong in crying. Hindi nababawasan ang pagkalalaki porke umiyak."

He has no project lined up. So there are rumors that he is spending time drinking and getting drunk to pass the time, or wallow in self-pity and his career that is in the dumps, whichever is appropriate.

JC, hindi pa man laos na. I had high hopes for you too, being young, handsome and semi-talented. I don't know if JC was coerced into writing that statement. If he was, I hope you grow some balls, k?

This Time Anabelle Rama Is The One Suing

The entertainment site PEP (Philippine Entertainment Portal) has issued an apology but Anabelle Rama will still be filing a lawsuit against PEP for erroneously publishing a report of an altercation between her son, Richard Gutierrez, and another actor, Michael Flores, during the birthday bash of director Mark Reyes.
There will be two separate lawsuits, one from Anabelle and the other from Richard. Wow, that should be worth millions and millions of pesoses in damages. Kapag nagkataon may pambayad na si Anabelle pag natalo naman siya sa demanda ni Wilma Galvante.

Anabelle is out for blood because PEP's editor-in-chief apologized for not making a thorough investigation of the incident before publishing the report. Anabelle wanted PEP to say that the incident never happened at all.

Anabelle is keen on pursuing the case because, according to her, her entire family felt hurt by the report on PEP and it tarnished Richard's status as a major endorser and as today's No 1 young actor in the country. Even her daughter, Ropa, condemned PEP's article via her Sunday entertainment show, The Buzz.

Uhm, if I wasn't mistaken not the entire Philippines read the article. It was an online article that only the most avid PEP reader will catch as it was taken down almost immediately. Take me for example. If not sa pagbubunganga ng mga Gutierrez, hindi ko malalaman na may artikulo palang ganun.

Hay, Anabelle, making a mountain out of a molehill. Scandals and erroneous reports are part and parcel of being a public figure. Ikaw Anabelle at ang iyong matabil na dila ang sumisira sa reputasyon ng mga anak mo, hindi ang isang maling artikulo na konti lang naman ang bumasa pero nalaman ng marami dahil sa pagkakalat mo rin.
