Kasado na ang kasalang Bea Alonzo at Vincent Co. 

Ipinost ng St. Peter the Apostle Parish ang wedding banns nina Bea at Vincent with their

complete names last Sunday (March 8).

Ang marriage banns ay pormal na pagpapaalam sa publiko ng intensiyon ng isang couple na magpakasal.

Sa Catholic Church ay naka-post ang marriage banns sa simbahang nakakasakop sa tinitirhan ng mga ikakasal for three consecutive Sundays.

Ginagawa ang announcement upang masiguro na walang legal na hadlang sa gaganaping kasal.

And what happens next after three consecutive Sundays na posting sa church? Baka ang kasunod ay ang aktuwal na kasalan na.

Ibig kayang sabihin nito ay bandang April magaganap ang kasalang Bea at Vincent? 

Kaya pala nananahimik ang aktres for a long time ay busy na siya sa preparations for her wedding.

After the wedding, honeymoon galore naman ang pagkakaabalahan ni Bea.

And then, saka pa lang siguro mahaharap ni Bea ang pagsu-shoot sa bago niyang teleserye na Whispers From Heaven (WFH).

Marami pang panahon para mag-shoot para sa bago niyang serye dahil next year pa naman ito eere.

Pero teka, ano kaya ang say ng Chinese family ni Vincent at sa Catholic Church sila ikakasal ni Bea? 

Kunsabagay, ang mga babae naman talaga ang nasusunod kung saan nila gustong ikasal.

O baka naman may ikalawa pang wedding sina Bea at Vincent? And this time, Chinese-

style wedding na para naman sa pamilya ni Vincent.

Keri naman nilang magpakasal kahit ilang beses. Ang mahalaga, tuloy na tuloy na ang pagpapakasal ni Bea. Huwag na nga sanang maudlot gaya ng nangyari sa huli niyang fiancé.

Congrats, Bea Alonzo and Vincent Co!

Resbak sa tawag sa kanya ni Jasmine… “ANG DUGYOT, ‘YUNG NANANAMPAL SA BAR AT NANG-AAGAW NG DYOWA” — ATTY. TOPACIO

Niresbakan ni Atty. Ferdinand Topacio si Jasmine Curtis-Smith sa pagtawag daw sa kanya ng ‘dugyot’.

Sa kanyang mensahe sa social media, ibinalik niya kay Jasmine ang pagtawag diumano sa kanya ng dugyot. Gayundin, kinuwestiyon niya ang pag-post sa social media ni Jasmine ng mga sexy photos nito.

Mensahe ni Atty. Topacio, “Dear Jasmine Curtis, ang alam kong dugyot, ‘yung nananampal sa bar ‘pag nalalasing. At ‘yung nagta-try mang-agaw ng dyowa ng may dyowa. Cheers!”

Bukod d’yan, may official statement din ang kampo ni Atty. Topacio bilang reaksiyon sa sinabi sa kanya.

Narito ang ‘public statement on defamatory attacks’ ng kampo ni Atty. Topacio:

“Calling Ferdinand Topacio ‘dugyot’ on social media is not criticism. It is plain and simple defamation. Under Article 353 of the Revised Penal Code of the Philippines, libel is the public and malicious imputation of a vice or defect that tends to dishonor or discredit a person. The term ‘dugyot’ is a direct attack on a person’s dignity and reputation. It contributes nothing to public debate and serves only to insult and malign.

“When such defamatory statements are made online, they may constitute cyber libel under the Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012 (Republic Act No. 10175), which carries heavier penalties than traditional libel.

“Let this be clear: freedom of speech is not a license to defame. The Constitution protects legitimate criticism, but it does not shield malicious character attacks designed to humiliate and destroy a person’s reputation.

“Atty. Ferdie Topacio is a member of the Philippine Bar and an officer of the court. Disagreements with his legal opinions or advocacy may be expressed — that is part of democracy. But reducing discourse to gutter-level insults only exposes the intellectual bankruptcy of those resorting to them.

“Those who recklessly post defamatory remarks online should remember: The internet is not a lawless space. Screenshots are evidence. Posts are traceable. And the law provides remedies. If one cannot argue with facts and reason, resorting to insults only proves the weakness of one’s position.

“Debate the issues. Respect the law. And stop the defamatory attacks.”

Kinantiyawan tuloy si Jasmine ng mga netizens dahil sa sinabi raw nito na ‘dugyot’.

Sey ng mga netizens:

“Never argue with an intelligent lawyer. Hahaha!”

“Bardagulan gusto mo? Atty. Topacio will give it to you.”

“Bardagulan kasi gusto, sinabihang dugyot, ‘di nasaktan si Atty.. ‘Di naman kasi totoo, pero ‘yung nananampal sa bar at mang-aagaw ng dyowa, legit na kadugyutan.”

“Na-real talk tuloy.”

May mga sumang-ayon din sa mga opinyon ni Atty. Topacio.

“‘Di mali si Atty. Maraming babae ay gusto ng attention at maging eye candy. Kung gusto ng babae ng picture for herself, then keep it to herself. At respect your partner.”

“I go with Atty here. You demand respect and decency, then don’t do anything contrary!”

“Bakit mag-post ng naka-bikini on and off the social media platforms? ‘Di ba para makapanghikayat ka ng maraming viewers mo, particularly lalaki? Stop the hypocrisy.”

Sa kabila ng bangayan ng mga celebrities, may ibang hirit ang ibang mga Pinoy:

“Maleta dapat pag-usapan, Lolo (Atty. Topacio).”

“Let’s not forget the maleta’s and flood control.”

“Wala na, nailihis na naman ang mga maleta.”

Tumpak!

Sorry ni cong., ‘di tinanggap… ANNE, GALIT SA KAMANYAKAN NI SUNTAY

Binasag na ni Anne Curtis ang kanyang pananahimik sa malisyosong pahayag para sa kanya ni Cong. Bong Suntay. Nag-explain ang aktres-host kung bakit ngayon lang siya nagbigay ng reaksiyon sa kontrobersiyal na pangmamanyak sa kanya ng pulitiko.

“Hi. It took me a while to speak up. I was focused on what mattered most, being reunited with my family, who were stranded in the Middle East and getting home safely. I am home now, and now I’m ready to say what needs to be said,” paliwanag ni Anne sa naka-post sa kanyang Instagram (IG) account.

Shocked daw si Anne na nagamit ang pangalan niya without her consent sa maling konteksto at higit sa lahat, sa kawalan ng respeto.

“My initial reaction was one of shock. I was hurt, disturbed by how perverted it was, and angry. But now my thoughts are clear.

“What happened to me isn’t rare. It happens to women every day in offices, in group chats, in rooms where men think no one is listening, or worse, in rooms where they know everyone is and simply don’t care. What made this incident different is that it came from someone holding public office,” sey ni Anne.

Hindi tinanggap ni Anne Curtis ang non-apology ni Cong. Bong Suntay pagkatapos ng mahahalay nitong mga salita.

Esplika ni Anne, “I do not accept your non-apology. But I also will not carry this as a personal wound.”

Nagsalita raw siya hindi para maghiganti o magdrama, “But because remaining silent would be wrong for me and for every woman watching.”

Mensahe ni Anne sa kongresista, “Mr. Suntay, I won’t spend much time on you. Not because what you did was small, but because this was never really about you. Since you used me as an example, let me use you as one too.

“You’ve become the poster boy of something much bigger: a culture that still thinks it’s acceptable to talk about women this way. Worse, one that tolerates it from our leaders. As they say, misogyny dressed up as a joke is still misogyny.

“You hold a seat paid for by taxpayers. Women are taxpayers. I am a taxpayer. We are not props in your commentary.”

Mariing sabi ni Anne, “I do not accept your non-apology. But I also will not carry this as a personal wound.”

Pero tinanggap daw ni Anne ang paghingi ng apology ng misis ni Cong. Suntay. Naka-relate kasi ang aktres-host sa better half ng pulitiko dahil siya man ay isa ring misis at ina. Ginawa rin daw ni Anne ang kanyang statement hindi para ipahiya ang misis at mga anak ni Cong. Suntay, at nanawagan siya sa publiko na bigyan sila ng malawak na pang-unawa.

Pagpapatuloy ni Anne, “Now, what I will carry is the responsibility to say clearly, on behalf of every woman who has ever been spoken about this way: “We deserve better. Not just now, while this topic is a hot issue, but every single day.

“Not just from Mr. Suntay. From all of it. From the casual sexism disguised as clever remarks. From public officials who forget who they serve.

“From a culture that still asks women to laugh it off, to not be so sensitive and to pick their battles.

“Every time a remark like this goes unchallenged, we lower the bar for what leadership looks like.

“Every time a woman is reduced to a cheap remark by someone holding a position of public trust, and nothing happens, we tell the next generation of women exactly where they stand. That is what I refuse to accept.

“Any leader who cannot respect women does not understand leadership at all. Respecting women, after all, is simply basic decency.

“To the ethics committee: I hope you do not let this pass. The integrity of public office depends on the standards it upholds. I will be seeking legal advice and will consider all my options moving forward. I cannot believe how many misogynists have revealed themselves the past couple of days.

“To everyone who used their voice to stand up for us and fight for our respect, both men and women, thank you. And if anyone is wondering why Women’s Month still matters, this is exactly why.”

Palakpakan para kay Anne Curtis!
