It could have been the perfect venue for clarifications and establishing a more positive atmosphere, but somewhere, somehow, something went wrong.
We are talking about the just concluded MMDA and MMFF Christmas-Get Together and Media Party, where almost every representative and main actors of the eight official MMFF entries were present.
Nora Aunor welcomed the question thrown at her on her being replaced by an equally good actress Irma Adlawan in Oro.
Ate Guy explained that she reported for work in Caramoan, Camarines Sur and done a day’s work for it. “Pero pagkatapos po akong makunan, wala na akong narinig. Ni wala nang nagsabi sa amin kung babalik pa kami o ano, (After my shoot for that day, I heard nothing. Nobody informed us on whether we will come back or what?). Nabalitaan ko na lang pinalitan na nga ako (I only got to know that I was replaced).”
What we heard next was the bad rumors on Ate Guy’s collecting the full amount of her talent fee and never reported for work at all, thus her being replaced?
For sure Ate Guy doesn’t want that kind of intrigue, that’s why she spoke up and answered what she believed was the truth.
Oro’s producers could have explained, rebutted or clarified the rumors on such “replacement and money issue,” but they decided to keep their distance and just ignored it.
Tsk. tsk, sayang! It could have been a more spicy promo.

Wheww, let me just clarify this to LIZQUEN fans who continue to pester us.
When I co-hosted papa Jobert Sucaldito on Dec.16 in DZMM’s Mismo teleradyo show, an item about Enrique Gil (Quen) was discussed.
The issue was about Karla Estrada’s social media posting of a groupie where Quen was deleted/edited. The supposed group was composed of Piolo Pascual, Zanjoe Marudo, Daniel Padilla, John Lloyd Cruz and Enrique (in that order).
LIZQUEN fans bashed Karla for that and called her names and raised the issue to Daniel-Quen.
I reported the item as to how it came out in the papers and the social media, including netizens’ reactions and Karla’s explanation (where I even said, was hard to believe.).
Papa Jobert gave his opinion and yes, for him, it should not be an issue because he felt, Daniel is ahead of Quen. And, that for him, Daniel should be on the same level as James Reid. That’s his opinion and not the show’s, neither mine!
I only sighed and said my piece about my support to Quen, Daniel and James, whom this showbiz considered as the top three hottest young male actors today.
End of the teleradyo discussion but not for the unhappy LIZQUEN supporters who even included me in their tirades and name-calling.
Wow! Since day one of the LIZQUEN tandem, I was there for the team. I just could not understand how shallow some of these fans could get when their expected stuffs are not heard.
Did they expect me to quarrel papa Jobert in his own show? Or did they want me to defend Quen like the way they defended him?
Nakakaloka lang! Paging Quen. Can you tell some of your supporters to be more open-minded and not so emotional?
Chill lang,

Kris Aquino and her sons are reportedly spending the Christmas Holidays in the USA.
Well, but how come nobody seems to care? Not too long ago when she has the power and influence, even the tiniest of detail of her whereabouts enjoys quite a following.
Has Kris popularity really gone down and nobody seems interested anymore about her gimmicks and repetitive pronouncements? Poor Kris.
But what disturbs us is this news on her (or her camp’s) alleged auditioning for the Miss Universe co-hosting job in 2017?
According to “chismis,” the Miss Universe organization has been sent copies of Kris’ hosting chores as if they were her audition pieces.
But reports also said that the Miss Universe organization allegedly paid no interest and gave a very “cold” reception to such a feeler?
“Dumating na siya sa ganung punto?” many asked. If this is true, poor Kris times two!
