"Marjorie Barretto is the Woman in Sexy Photos" - Atty. Lorna Kapunan
Source: www.abs-cbnnews.com
In an interview with ABS-CBN News on Tuesday, Atty. Lorna Kapunan said Barretto is “very upset” about the photos.
“She’s a mother, she’s very upset. She’s not running for any public office precisely because she wants to guard her privacy. She has growing up daughters and ang concern niya is they are in the formative years where they understand. That’s why we are also respecting the media na sana huwag na interviewhin si Marj,” she said.
Kapunan said this matter “should remain within the family and what pictures she may have should remain private.”
Thus Kapunan is appealing to the public to stop uploading or reposting Marjorie’s alleged photos so they will not be forced to file legal charges.
“RA 9995, mayroon tayong tinatawag na Anti-Photo and Video Voyeurism Act. It is a crime under the Bible. It is a fair warning. Nobody has ever filed a case under 9995 and hopefully they do not test us because we are here to see that the law is implemented,” the lawyer said.
Kapunan said they have already identified all the people who posted the photos and they will definitely take legal actions against them if they don’t put it down.
“We have the addresses of all the bloggers, and we have sent you demand letters and this is a fair warning to you guys that the penalty is P100,000 to P500,000 plus imprisonment of three years to seven years or both,” she said.
‘Motives are suspect’
Meanwhile, Kapunan said that while the spread of the photos is separate from the ongoing Barretto family feud, “it comes at the time where motives are suspect.”
The photos were made public just a week after the Barretto matriarch publicly disowned daughter Gretchen Barretto while defending her other daughter Claudine.
Although Marjorie has remained mum about their mother's statement about Gretchen, showbiz observers believe that the feud stemmed partly from comments on the image-sharing service Instagram, supposedly made by Gretchen, saying that her sister Claudine is not happy that their niece, Julia, is starting to make a name for herself in showbiz.
Julia, the daughter of Marjorie, was recently introduced as an artist of Star Magic, the ABS-CBN talent management firm that launched Claudine to stardom until her transfer to another network in 2009.
“It is enough that there is so much publicity on the family already because of sibling squabble. This one is separate and it comes at the time where motives are suspect,” Kapunan told ABS-CBN News.
“Nothing is more valuable than your private reputation, nothing is more valuable than your family, and nothing is more valuable than your children. In the case of Marjorie, she has daughters so she’s appealing -- regardless of what the moral judgment on the situation of the parties are concerned – to keep it private,” she added.
Barretto initially denied that she was the woman in the sexy photos.

Basking in Notoriety
Image courtesy of www.blingcheese.com
For
the nth time, the disgusting siblings DS can’t seem to have it all.
Every character in the industry who have had the misfortune of having to
deal with them seems left with nothing positive to say.
Haven’t
heard of notoriety being displayed with so much passion by anyone more
than these two. Truth be told, insiders say that no other showbiz
siblings have been hated and bashed as much as DS. Reportedly, even in
their own network, they are loathe and despised by most of their
colleagues and network people.
Just
how annoying can they get? This is a no-brainer question - there is
nothing in the planet that DS have not yet done to agitate, distress,
torment, irritate, pester, anyone and anything that moves. People say
that if there is an award for such kind of species, they sure would have
gotten it long time ago.
So what’s the latest buzz/complaint this time?
On
the set of their tv commercial (tvc) shoot, DS made it known to the
production team PT that they would not come to the shoot UNLESS
everything was set. DS said they would not want to wait and would only
appear when all was done and ready – the entire cast and crew,
production, costumes, scripts, director - all the works present. DS
emphasized these so many times - that unless these were met, they would
not come to the shoot. All because they would not want to wait.
The
entire PT was visibly annoyed at the toxicity of the sisters. The way
that DS display their attitude towards anyone you would think that the
world owes them big. Wonder how their supposed disciplinarian elders
deal with DS’ haters – must be very challenging – or rewarding.

Dear Fashion PULIS,
Just
want to tell you my sentiments regarding Sphere. I don't know if you
saw the tweet from @LikeS during its T5 launch, nonetheless here is my
story.
This
was just recently at the launching of Sphere's T5 line. I was following
their twitter account and happened to stumble on a tweet offering the
line at a price of 1,499php per month. I was enticed by the offer so I
immediately asked the @ChatwithS and @SinOfS for the requirements. I
also inquired about their website showing a plan 1,799 only but without
the 1,499php which was their current offering that I was interested in.
After
more than 12 hours, @ChatwithS replied asking me where i saw the
information and requested me to provide a link. The tone of the message
was quite rude, and as if to add more insult, he/she put a a smiley at
the end of the message.
Furious,
I immediately searched my whole feed and backtracked the @LikeS
account -- but to my dismay, I could no longer find the tweet. My
mistake was my failure to take a screenshot of it, although a lot of
people in the office saw that tweet.
Enraged, I replied telling them that I saw the tweet but now the tweet was gone. I further added , "Ganyanan na pala. Tsk."
The reply? " How may we help you today? :). "
You're getting the picture now, FP.
I said, "No thanks - @Wise (their competitor) can help me better.
Now they tweeted me saying their T5 plan is available at plan 1,599php and I'm like sheesh Sphere.
For clarification, I have a different plan on @Wise already.
Thank you very much, FP for providing an avenue for aggrieved consumers like me. More power!
Sincerely,
Loida

Marjorie Barretto on Photo Scandal: "No, That's Not Me!"
Note: These are the two scandalous photos showing a
likeness of Marjorie Barretto, albeit with the sensitive parts cropped out.
Source: www.interaksyon.com
“No, that’s not me. I would never do something like that. That’s not my nature,” the Caloocan City councilor said.
The two photos show a likeness of Barretto posing and smiling in an intimate setting.
The first shows the woman with a portion of her shirt lifted up to expose her right breast while her legs are covered by a blanket. There is no breast exposure in the second photo, but the legs are spread wide open, exposing her black underwear as her left leg is propped up by the protruding leg of the photographer.
Barretto vowed to enlist the help of the National Bureau of Investigation in finding out the source of the photos, which were originally published by tabloid Hataw on Friday.
She did not speculate if the circulation of the photos is related to the ongoing feud that has split her family.

Keeping Up with the Make-Believe
Image courtesy of www.vendorlove.theknottybride.com
Teleserye
lead actress LA felt she has many great things going for her: a great
career, supportive family, and reportedly, a blooming romance. So many
things to be thankful for such continued success indeed, so much so
that when her birthday came, she decided to celebrate it with a bang.
On the set of her teleserye TE, LA made it known to the production team PT and the cast how much she appreciated them for their support and friendship. As such she showed and made them feel what she meant by celebrating her birthday and treating all the cast and PT to a fabulous birthday treat right on the set. LA had the food catered by one of the best in the industry. Needless to say, everyone had a good time, it was a party to remember.
Few days after, from out of the blue and for no known reason at all, another star ST of TE, decided to throw a big bash for the whole cast and PT right on the set, too. In the same fashion as LA days ago – it was a fab and awesome party, too. Many on the set were initially clueless as for the reason for the party as it was neither ST’s birthday nor any recent career high that they knew of - until ST made known her reason why. She said that it was a “thanksgiving party” she was giving to thank everyone present for her success as an actress in TE. ST said she had been getting very favorable and encouraging feedback for her performance in the soap, especially from the social media.
Though surprised, majority of those present gave in to her and appreciated her for the effort. But there were also some who knew ST’s real motive. They said that ST was such an insecured soul and a hypocrite for claiming something she knew she was not, and that the party was meant to match or even surpass that of LA’s, for reasons known only to her.
Looks like this will be a never ending “silent war” between the two main protagonists – both reel and real.

Letter from a Reader: Cause for Alarm
Image courtesy of Fashion PULIS reader
Hi FP,
I
am an avid follower of your site, kudos for finding the juiciest gossip
in town. My apologies in advance for this rant but I can't help myself
from sending you my concern.
As
I was watching this weekend show, 3 little girls and some other
network talents were dancing to Cindy Lauper's song "She Bop." Do they
know that the song is kind of touchy due to its sexually suggestive
content? Are they aware of the fact that it has something to do with
mas**r*ation??? I was awed and very disturbed while watching the whole
production number. Can't the production staff do some due diligence in
researching the content/message of the song or any materials they use
before subjecting its talents (especially little girls) to use it for a
song/dance number?
I
am not prude by all means but the fact that there were kids involved
made me really cringe and I'm sure that other like-minded viewers felt
the same way, too. By writing to you I hope this catches their (the
network's) attention and they would be more circumspect next time.
We
all know that in media organizations, entertaining and responsible
programming is key. As such, these networks should be very vigilant and
adhere to the social responsibility they were tasked and vowed to
uphold.
Thanks for your time in reading this, FP.
Responsible citizen,
Anna

Gretchen Barretto to Address Family Issues Privately

Source: www.sunstar.com.ph
ACTRESS Gretchen Barretto became emotional while giving a short message regarding the recent controversy involving her family.
Appearing on Sunday talk show "The Buzz," Gretchen said it is not easy that her life is being scrutinized by the public.
"Hindi madali ang pinagdadaan ko ngayon. Hindi madali yung pinag-uusapan ka ng buong Pilipinas. Hindi madaling pakinggan yung pinagdaanan ko... yung childhood ko," she said.
The actress appealed for privacy, saying family problems should not be discussed in public.
Gretchen said 18-year-old daughter Dominique knows her story.
"Many years from now lilingunin niya itong nangyari sa akin. Maaalala ni Dominique na my mom never fought. And that's what's important to me. Yun ang importante. That's what I like to leave behind," she said.
Earlier, Gretchen was called a "liar" and capable of "evil manipulation" by her own mother Inday Barretto.
Gretchen's brother Joaquin came to her defense but other sibling Gia Barretto-Reyes sided with Inday, lambasting the actress for allegedly hurting their family.
The actress has already hinted at taking legal action against Gia.

Brewing Trouble Behind The Show
Image courtesy of Fashion PULIS reader
When the variety show needed a
change after its original director left, the network decided to have
two directors handle the show. The system was implemented such that
Directors A and B would alternately take charge of the show every other
week. After all, two heads were thought to be better for the show.
Unfortunately,
demoralization among the production is brewing after they found out the
negative comments of some followers of Director B in his alleged site.
In the fansite of Director B, criticisms regarding the work of Director A
persist, and some are even demanding for the resignation of Director A.
Sadly,
the bullying tactics of the followers of Director B are affecting the
morale of some production people. They feel that instead of discouraging
such comments, Director B, as the alleged owner of the said page, is
actually letting his fans dish off the criticisms. Some comments paint
hatred it when Director A earns praises for a job well done.
The
consequence is that the show's episodes handled by each director have
turned into an unhealthy contest between them. Of course, the loser in
the said “competition” is the production team who has been working hard
for both directors. After all, the team only has the welfare of the show
in mind regardless who directed which. Some are losing enthusiasm when
it comes to Director B as most are sympathetic to Director A.
Instead
of being inspired to do their work, most get discouraged from all the
negativities that permeate the air. If the internal matters cannot be
resolved, then the show might really just fall far behind the real
competition, i.e., the show on the rival channel. They better do their
homework quick before the rival eats them whole. As it is, the shows'
episodes of late leave a lot to be desired.
There
is something at work that's bigger than us. It's about having a trust
in life and being at peace that things are happening the way they
should. You do what you do as well as you can do it, and then you don't
worry or agonize about the outcome.- Sherilyn Fenn

Letter from a Reader: An Amalayer Story
Image courtesy of www.zazzle.co.uk
You
probably heard of this a thousand times, pero I am one of the people
who stay up late just to read your fresh gossip and hot promos every 12
midnight :)
But
right now, I'd like to tell you my bad experience with a very rude lady
guard at a big mall in QC North. And since this blog gets results,
hopefully some people concerned get to read this and act accordingly.
Last
Thursday, April 18, I went to that mall, and as usual, everyone goes
thru the security inspection. But from where I was standing in the line,
I saw the lady guard on duty "picking her nose" shamelessly right in
front of us people in line. The sight was so gross and vulgar! I saw her
holding a tissue on her hand but she chose to use her gloves to clean
up the "residue."
When
I was finally in front of her, I really felt icky knowing where those
hands had been. Without sounding really offensive, I told her that it's
okay if she threw the tissue first since I had my packed lunch inside my
bag. But instead of being embarrassed, the lady guard even yelled at
me, "Bakit? Ilalagay ko ba 'to sa bag mo?" (referring to the tissue on
her hand)
She further went on, "Wag ho kayo maselan at baka ma-Amalayer ka!"
I was so humiliated, and I left. All this time, her fellow guards did nothing to alleviate the situation.
By the way this
scene happened at the Jollibee entrance, around 12 noon and the guard's
last name was Oliveros. I often take this route and it was not just me
that this boorish lady guard came in rude contact with.
If I can be helped to file a formal complaint, please do and I thank you in advance.
More power to you, FP and God bless us all!
Anna
