AFTER A little more than 18 months (or one a half years), finally, former Ilocos Sur Representative returned to his native Vigan amidst a mammoth crowd of jubilant kababayans last Saturday afternoon.
Matatandaang nasabat sa pag-iingat ni Ronald ang 14 na gramo ng powder containing six grams believed to be cocaine at dalawang tabletas ng nitrazepam sa Chek Lap Kok International Airport noong July 11, 2010.
Mismong ang tiyahin ni Ronald, Vigan City Mayor Jermy Singson-Goulard led the preparations of her nephew’s homecoming, assembling all the mayors in one district of the province at the Baluarte, kung saan isang thanksgiving mass muna ang isasagawa bago ang salu-salo.
Eksklusibong naihatid ng Startalk TX noong Sabado ang footage ng mga paghahandang ‘yon, even Ms. Goulard’s statement to reconfirm Lovi Poe’s visit to Ronald at the Hong Kong prison noong magdiwang ito ng kaarawan last November 2011. Nauna nang sinabi ng ama ni Ronald na si Governor Chavit ang pagbisitang ‘yon ng kanyang “manugang na hilaw”.
Ms. Goulard, for her part, corroborated her elder brother’s confirmed statement, pero nang tanungin mismo si Lovi at an event three days before her rumoured boyfriend’s return, ito ang (inaasahan nang) sagot ng hitad: “I don’t want to answer anything about that just now because just like all of you, guys, I’m in a position now that I’m clueless.”
Tila nasa “time warp” pa si Lovi, hindi na siya nakakawala sa kanyang “Standard Pasakalye School of Acting” that goes back noong panahong magdyowa pa sila ni Jolo Revilla! Clueless saan? Sa pagbabalik ni Ronald? O, sa tunay na estado ng kani-lang relasyon? Dahil let’s face it, marami na rin nang nangyari sa pagitan ng July 2010 at January 2012, sa aminin man o hindi ni Lovi.
At sa tanggapin man o hindi ni Lovi, as far as the entertainment press is concerned, she’s one subject that sucks.
AT LEAST two on-camera exposures last Saturday not only brought excitement to the viewers, patunay lang ‘yon that in life, moving on is just as important as breathing air.
Pagkatapos ng Pinoy Henyo segment sa Eat Bulaga, magkasama sa frame doing their intro spiels sina Pia Guanio at Pauleen Luna, ang nakaraan at kasalukuyan ni Vic Sotto. Their togetherness only quelled rumors na kaya raw ilang araw lumiban si Pauleen sa EB ay dahil nagseselos daw ito kay Pia.
Pero laking-gaga ni Pauleen kung paniniwalaan natin ang absurd news na ‘yon, how can she be jealous of Pia gayong bukod sa siya ang present girlfriend ni Bossing ay may asawa na ito (si Steve Mago) at buntis pa?
Samantala, sa katapat naman ng Startalk TX sa ABS-CBN ay guest ni Luis Manzano si Patrick Garcia who’s now back in the Kapamilya Network. Of course, Patrick and Luis are Jennylyn Mercado’s past and present boyfriends, respectively.
Isang testimonial din ‘yon that no walls come in between the two gentlemen, may basbas mula kay Patrick ang relasyon nina Luis at Jen. Kunsabagay, kung sa isang aktor diyan din lang, Jen’s immediate ex-boyfriend, Luis is head and shoulders way above: disente, may breeding, may pinag-aralan at ideal role model.
O, blind item ‘yan, ha? Baka may umako, Kuya Dan… hindi ‘yon nakaka-thrill, yo!
