“‹For sure, no one wants to wear the branded shoes of Kris Aquino nowadays. For someone who does not have a television program and is no longer the Queen of All Media, we cannot deny the reality she is still all over the Philippine entertainment news landscape.

Her present scenarios, two of her qualified theft accusations against Nicko Falcis, her former business manager, were junked by the Prosecutor’s Offices of Makati and Pasig City, due to lack of “probable cause.”

She is infamous because of the skin flicks starred wherein she showed some of her bare necessities and current its complicated related status.

Gretchen Barretto throws thanksgiving parties for Aquino’s legal and personal nemesis. La Greta has given two parties to celebrate the victory of the Falcis brothers.

War of the Rich and Infamous
Kris Aquino, Queen of All Media no more?

Of late, the embattled mother of two became subject of a dimwitted spiel in a political event. Aquino was agitated because of this and a video in her social media site was made public.

Let us set the record straight first, even if the senatorial aspirant already issued an apology, it cannot erase the fact that the joke was most inappropriate and it was indeed callous of this hopeful to use Aquino’s former predicament as the subject of ridicule. May this experience open the eyes of many with regard to the attitude and his sincerity of intentions.

For Philip Salvador, may he keep his lips tight, after all, he agreed to the “laugh out loud” moment. Whatever he sees or hears, especially the message of Kris, it is pointless to defend yourself. We are all aware that as far as you and Ms. Aquino are concerned, everything is water under the bridge. You were her first sperm donor, you have served your purpose.

Yes, we are indeed a democracy, Aquino has every right to cry foul, speak her mind and pour heart out. However, this time, if she exercised prudence and just swept the “joke” under the rug, the majority will salute her. She should have weighed how Josh Aquino, her eldest, and biological son of Salvador, will feel about all these unnecessary drama.

It made me cringe, listening to her rant as she displayed her dirty linen in public and the sins of Salvador are all old news. If your only fault was being a 23-year-old virgin who fell in love madly with an older fellow, we are fine about it, why cannot you?

We have better things to do than to listen to your lamentation which could have been prevented if you use your intelligence choosing the person you love.

Krissy, less talk, lesser mistakes so it is best to zip it! Your latest episode, it will not ease the widening gap and value between the peso and the dollar

Your latest version of truth will not change the staggering cost of power and water consumption, food, rice, and other commodities.            

The dirt and viruses are still by the gazillions populating Pasig River, Manila Bay, and Baseco Beach, despite your keening.  

EDSA traffic is the only constant and might be a forever to all Filipinos. If you and Philip did not have a forever and he was of no assistance, especially of the monetary kind to Joshua, why are you making it such a big deal now when you were able to raise him on your own? And, I cannot help but wonder, why is that your personal crises and dramas, why do you make it appear it is of national importance and it is bigger than all of us?

Oh! I get it, Kris Aquino is indeed Kris Aquino. Well, let me just say, by opening all your cans and letting out the worms to crawl, you better know what you are doing, Krissy.

In the war employed by the rich and infamous, karma is real, it is a bitch, and yes, it is super digital!
