Our rapid-fire roundup of things happening in Philippine showbiz.
1. GRETCHEN WILL NOT ATTEND MOM’S FUNERAL
It looks like Gretchen Barretto really doesn’t like her mom. A commenter on Instagram asked her if she’d visit her mom or attend her burial when she dies, and La Greta said, “No. I won’t.” This Barretto mess is so entertaining, you have to admit.

Ate Shawi isn’t just getting old, she’s also just very excited to have another child at home so if she could have her way, she already wants daughter KC Concpecion to get married and have a child. She told Pep.ph that she is ready to be a grandmother already. “Yeah, I’ve been ready for a long time,” she shared with Pep.ph, adding that KC is the one who’s not ready to have a child yet. “I like babies. I can’t wait! I had a baby early. It has its pluses and minuses, but one of the pluses is getting to grow up with your kid. I was nineteen when I had her. Para di masyadong malayo yung generation gap.”

The actor may seem perfectly fine now after all the legal battles he’s faced (he was sued for acts of lasciviousness and sexual harassment, among others), but he admitted to Boy Abunda that he still has inner conflicts. “Medyo nagkaroon ako ng inferiority complex, but I’m still working on becoming more relaxed, at peace, and confident,” he told the TV host. He added that working out helps him focus and think better, and that he’s also glad he’s got projects that keep him busy. For example, he’s part of the indie horror film Sapi, showing first week of November. He will also be part of the indie film Waves, plus the Metro Manila Film Festival entry Boy Golden.
4. WENN DERAMAS CLARIFIES HE DID NOT SUFFER FROM MILD STROKE

Oh, okay. So the reason why Direk Wenn wasn’t able to attend the premiere of his movie Bekikang last Oct. 21 was pneumonia – and not mild stroke as previously reported by various websites. He told Pep.ph that the doctors are still not ruling out a heart illness because when he arrived at the emergency room, he already couldn’t breathe and his heart rate was already very high. He was confined for 10 days but has already been discharged and is feeling better than ever.
