Whoever thought of it needs to rethink his or her concept of entertainment.

“Metro Manila Development Authority (MMDA) chair and senatorial hopeful Francis Tolentino denied reports that he brought dancers to a birthday party he attended in Laguna on Thursday, October 1,” reports Nestor Corrales on Inquirer.net.

In a text message to the Inquirer, Tolentino stated: “I was just a guest at the birthday party. I did not bring any dancer or singer. The emcee probably got misinformed.”

Some people who were at the event supposedly heard the emcee say that the dancers were Tolentino’s “surprise gift” to those who attended the gathering. The group was called “Playgirls.”

Indeed, as the report noted, “sexy dancers were seen dancing during the event against a backdrop bearing the name and face of Rep. Benjie Agarao and greetings for his ‘birthday celebration’ and ’40th year in service.'”

Prior to the said party, Tolentino was with former Interior Secretary Mar Roxas II on the oath-taking of 80 of its new members in Laguna on Wed, Sep 30.
