Our rapid-fire roundup of things happening in Philippine showbiz.
1. DENIECE CORNEJO PERFORMED ORAL SEX ON VHONG NAVARRO
That’s what happened, according to Vhong himself, in an affidavit he gave to the National Bureau of Investigation. They enjoyed white wine, they “made out,” and then Deniece went down on the comedian. According to the affidavit, after Vhong left Deniece’s condo unit in Forbeswood Heights in Taguig, she texted “BAD BOY KA” and Vhong replied with, “SORRY TALAGA.”
2. THE STORY ACCORDING TO THE CCTV
Deniece’s version of the story: On their second date last Jan. 22, Vhong attempted to rape her and it was when he was on top of her when her friend Cedric Lee arrived and caught Vhong in the act. According to the CCTV footage, Vhong entered the condo at around 10:38 p.m. and is inside the elevator at 10:39 p.m. At 10:40 p.m., Deniece left the condo while Cedric entered the condo a minute after. Cedric’s alleged companions entered a couple of minutes later. So it looks like the footage matches Vhong’s story.
3. JHONG HILARIO WALKS OUT OF IT’S SHOWTIME!

The TV host got a little too emotional in the middle of yesterday’s episode of the noontime show, eventually walking out. Right after the show, in an interview with ABS-CBN News, he apologized and explained that he’s very affected by what’s happening to Vhong because they’ve been friends for over two decades. The two started out as members of the dance group Streetboys.
4. BONG REVILLA SYMPATHIZES WITH VHONG NAVARRO

They may not be close but Senator Ramon “Bong” Revilla, Jr. Expressed yesterday that he sympathizes with Vhong. He said that if he really did something bad, Cedric, etc. could have just sent him to prison. “Dapat pinakulong na lang siya, hindi yung para babuyin pa siya,” he said. Bong added that he hopes nothing like that will happen to his fellow artistas anymore.
5. VHONG’S GIRLFRIEND STANDS BY HIM

Not a lot of people know that Vhong has a non-showbiz girlfriend, Tanya Winona. Can you believe that they’ve been together for five years? Despite Vhong’s cheating, she stands by him, and was even with the comedian when he made his sworn statement. In an interview in Buzz ng Bayan last Sunday, Vhong asked forgiveness from his girlfriend and asked for another chance. He emphasized that he is not a rapist. “Hinding-hindi ko magagawa yun,” he said.

Why do we have to sensationalize and make a fuss out it. In some other countries, such actuations is normal and natural. Whoever is guilty let him suffered for what he has done. He knows it. Everything happened on purpose. Simple as that???
