Giselle Sanchez Dilemma

In her article in Manila Bulletin, Giselle Sanchez explained why she accepted the role of Corazon Aquino in the movie Maid In Malacanang. She explained that she had prepared for the role.

In one scene, the character of Cory Aquino was shown saying, : Get them out of the Philippines obviously referring to the Marcoses. After that, she played mahjong together with the nuns.

As reported Giselle texted Sen Imee Marcos to ask her where this scene originated, and the senator said, the story came from the Americans.

According to history, President Cory went to Carmelite Monastery in Cebu last February 1986 to pray. There was no mention that she played mahjong with the nuns.

    Wala namang masama sa pagma-mahjong 

    Ang masama ay sabi sa history na kleptocrat ang tatay tapos nahatulan ka pa ng tax evasion  tapos convicted pa ang nanay. YAN ANG MASAMA

    Certified world-class mandarambong at mga sinungaling naman talaga ang mga Marcos. Forever na nakatatak na yan sa pangalan nila kahit paano gawin/ gastusin nilang nakaw na yaman.

    Pera2 lang talaga , alam pihado ni G. Sanchez na walang katotohanan ang ipinagawa sa kanya ng walang modong director ng " made in malacanang "pero ginawa pa rin ni sanchez it means nakuha sya sa talent fee, kahit nambalahura sya ng pagkatao bg naging pangulo ng bansa at mga madre na ginawa nilang mga sugalera ! Nakakahiya kayo !

    Aside from the bashers, I also wish Ms. Sanchez, that you were also prepared to face your conscience for the actions in script you were ask to portray. You have become a contributory to the Disinformation this movie is attempting to do. Hope you could face yourself in the mirror and say Good Job!

How to Grow Mangosteen Seeds (English)

A Current Event Question Ended The Dry Questions With A Stir

One of the most watched upon segment of Binibining Pilipinas is the Q and A round.  Long before the contest started I have been betting my "nom de plume" to my friends and it was not only the name but my credibility that one of the possible questions in the pageant would be the Ella Cruz controversy about history being tsismis. The whole house was turned to ear-splitting tone when the last judge Joshua Garcia (I was almost contrite and repentant for betting my reliability and plausibility just like that) but when he asked "how do you distinguish a Historian from a Maritess" that closed doubts in the discussion that current events indeed holds a spot in pageant Q and A's.

And Stacey Daniella B. Gabriel was almost expecting that question too.  She took the microphone, and showing no surprise or fear she said," A historian is one who recognizes our painful past, with factual evidence, looking back at our rich vibrant history, and as well the times when our humanity was trampled on and our heritage almost erased.  If we look at our past, we can surely move onward and rebuild - rise from this pandemic, and dream for a safer, healthier, and happier Philippines.

No wonder despite her diminutive size, she was awarded the second runner-up and in my memory bank this year, was the best response a candidate can share in the interview round.

How about you guys?  Do you believe the candidates winning and losing the pageant start and end in the question and answer round?

I remember my friend when he said: No judge will give the crown to someone who is an airhead who did not connect with them and the audience in the crucial Q and A segment. I have been a judge once, and I can say with all sincerity that there are judges who will fall in love with you in the interview ... and will have the tendency to ignore minor hiccups and will score you higher in other phases of the competition.
