The Jeweled Package

ELECTION season is one of the most-anticipated events by celebrities as it gives them a lot of earning potentials, mostly via candidate endorsements. While others do it conscientiously (endorsing only candidates whom they believe in), most do it for the huge monetary consideration.

The figures are really very tempting to begin with. Nowhere are celebrities paid that much for a given period lasting a few months. So huge are the payoffs that those contracted are able to build a dream house, a car after only a few months of work.

Sexy Star SS is one of those who made a killing in the last campaign season. She was in-demand, her services were sought out by politicos to add some oomph to their boring speeches and faces.

SS although not really talented made up for the visual treat that she provided on stage and on camera for those oogling eyes to feast on. Everybody knows how visual are the mass electorate that comprise a big percentage of the voting population.

After the elections, SS was only too overwhelmed with the added zeroes to her bank account. It was indeed the best time she ever had – less work, more fun, more cash.

But did you know that there’s talk going around that SS pushed her luck a little further? Reportedly, a very bitter national candidate NC who spent millions upon millions in his campaign lost overwhelmingly and was so depressed and inconsolable for a long time. His consultant-politico CP got seriously bothered with NC’s condition and he wanted to appease him. Needless to say, he wanted to gift NC with “something.”

CP thought of SS whom he contacted - and was he surprised that SS said yes right away? The next day - SS the gift – pretty and ribboned - was delivered to NC’s doorstep.

Yes it is, the gift did work wonders on NC.

“It feels so wrong, it feels so right, because of you I am out for blood tonight.”

MANILA, Philippines -- Jed Salang, the husband of Ai Ai delas Alas, on Wednesday made his first public appearance since their controversial separation last month to face charges reportedly filed against him by the actress.

The businessman, who married the 48-year-old comedienne in Las Vegas on April 3, appeared before the Quezon City Regional Trial Court (RTC) Branch 94 on Wednesday morning to face a case in relation to his separation from delas Alas.

The Kapamilya star, who arrived separately from her former husband at the same court, had reportedly filed a case against Salang for violating Republic Act 9262 or the act defining violence against women and children.

Delas Alas' legal complaint is in addition to a protection order she had sought against Salang in late May.

Also seen leaving the Quezon City RTC branch separately, both delas Alas and Salang refused to comment on the legal proceedings, with the businessman's legal counsel citing a gag order issued by the court.

In a controversial interview on "The Buzz" aired in May, delas Alas broke down as she recalled being allegedly physically abused by Salang over a disagreement.

The interview came after reports surfaced that the two have separated less than a month after they married in the United States.

She Goes Mad and Envious

There’s hardly an air of positivity whenever the name of young star YS crops up in conversations. Often, YS is labeled as an insecure soul, flirt, stiff, among others. She’s also described as untrustworthy even by her close friends. Oh well..

YS is cast in a drama series DS opposite accomplished actor AA. Having a unique story with talented cast, and using higher technology, DS is a hit and enjoying good ratings – something the cast and production are truly proud of. The production team PT really strives hard to keep on improving DS so that they will be able to sustain the high ratings.

However, one day YS was said to have ranted at PT for taking in a fellow young star FS as added cast to the show. YS is so against FS entry into the program since she said the focus of the story is slowly getting lost on her (YS) as a result. She was so furious and said that FS’ character is irrelevant and unnecessary and would only add confusion to DS.

Those who heard YS rant couldn’t help but comment how bitter and envious YS is of anyone, since they know how self-centered she can be. One insider said that she has no right to demand anything including reversal of the script since she hasn’t proven anything and that YS should even be thankful that she is given big projects despite that her latest projects failed overwhelmingly.

Meanwhile, the level-headed FS is happily getting along well with the rest of the cast and PT. Despite the trauma that she had in the past, FS’ maturity and positivity radiate and rub off on people – qualities that endear her to people including AA. Some insiders observe that AA and FS have very good chemistry. Hmmm…

With the way she's misbehaving, perhaps YS should pray for magic that she would not be oust in DS.

Daiana Menezes Cries: Benjamin Benaldo Made Me Look Stupid In Interview

2013-06-19T00:11:00.000+08:00

MANILA, Philippines -- An emotional Daiana Menezes bared her hurt over her husband's behavior in their joint interview aired last Sunday, saying the outgoing congressman made her look "stupid."

Addressing Cagayan de Oro Rep. Benjamin Benaldo, the 25-year-old Brazilian model, in tears, said, "Sana ma-realize niya na ginawa ko 'yan para sa 'yo. Pwede mo naman i-air out, eh. Wala namang mali na magsabi na nagkamali ako, nagkamali lang tayong dalawa, pero huwag naman dumating sa punto na ako 'yung mukhang stupid, tanga o napakadaling mag-forgive."

Speaking exclusively with ABS-CBN News' Ginger Conejero, Menezes was referring to their interview with "The Buzz" host Boy Abunda that aired last Sunday.

In the interview, the couple maintained that no incident of domestic violence took place with Menezes apologizing for her her actions on social media last week.

On her page on image-sharing service Instagram, Menezes had shared a series of images pertaining to violence against women, including ones showing the words "No to rape," "Real Men Don't use Violence," and "There is no excuse for abuse."

Another photo on Menezes' Instagram page showed an arm bleeding from cuts and wounds.

But on Tuesday, the model lamented that Benaldo's part in the interview did not appear consistent with the apology about the controversy he had issued after Menezes' posts stirred speculation.

"I was very disappointed because I exposed myself to the point na from Instagram post, into the whole interview thing and all I wanted was the statement given by my partner would be consistent to what we saw on the camera and in the interview itself by Tito Boy," she said.

"It didn't happen. A person was just beside me blank, letting me come out matapang and giving the impression to the public that what I said was unreliable when in fact he already said sorry," she added.

'No concern'

Menezes pointed to Benaldo's supposed air of indifference during the interview, saying, "Wala man lang concern. I'm exposing myself to that and then wala, blank."

"He apologized to me personally, and he released a statement to the public. But when we aired our side together, in front of the public and everything, there was like no apologies at all, and that made me feel like I was the one who had the problem," she tearfully said.

She added: "I am just going through a phase that I cannot even control my emotions anymore, because if my partner cannot support me on cam but just behind the camera, it will be really hard for me to move forward."

Referring to her being emotional, Menezes admitted that she feels "a little bit of anger" toward her husband.

"Whenever I get teary-eyed, at the of the day, tama ba na ako pa 'yung mali? It happened na eh. I cover you up from the fight," she said.

"No matter what happened, I can never get into details, kasi ayoko na madamay 'yung tao dahil mahal ko siya. Pero gusto ko sana maintindihan ng mga tao na hindi lang ako gumagawa ng issue," she added.

A 'victim'?

Although she categorically denied in her "The Buzz" interview that there was an instance of abuse in their relationship, Menezes said, "To clarify, I'm not the girl who cried wolf."

Explaining that she did not mean for their fight to go public on social media, Menezes said she was pushed to post the controversial images because "I was emotionally unstable at that time, and too depressed to express my feelings."

Asked if she considers herself a "victim" of abuse, Menezes said, "I consider myself... pwede... ayoko naman magsabi ng words na 'victim.' Hindi eh, parang ang hirap... wala, it's just really, really tough right now."

"It's not something that involves just me and Benjo and my mom. It's the public, it's everyone bashing. It's everything, eh," she said.

Menezes' mother, who flew in from their native Brazil early this week, was at the model's side during her interview with ABS-CBN News.

According to Menezes, her mother is the one most hurt by the turn of events.

"She's very hurt na parang, 'Bakit ganoon? Anak ko 'yan eh.' ... It's just so hard for her din to accept because I'm the only child, and then she came over from the other side of the world, and then at the of the day, [I'm] only 25, 'Bakit?'" Menezes said.

Moving forward

Admitting she regrets that her relationship with Benaldo has turned sour, Menezes said she is nonetheless considering filing for divorce.

The couple married in a civil wedding in Las Vegas in December last year.

"It's one of the options, to divorce, pero we were planning the [church] wedding eh. Parang napaka-contradicting sa isip mo na you're planning to get married," she said.

"So I'm torn... Will I get into a divorce because of this fight and what people are telling me to do, or follow my heart? 'Yun ang hindi ko talaga mapi-figure out until binigyan niyo po kami ng space, ng time siguro," she said.

Explaining why she still considers building a life with Benaldo, Menezes said, "It's just talagang love. Patawarin niyo ako kung in love ako. Sorry, blind siguro. Sorry, that's life. It happens."
