Anak ni Lucio Tan OK tumakboPINAGTIBAY ng hukuman sa Quezon City angkarapatang bumoto ni Vivienne Tan, anak ngnegosyanteng si Lucio Tan, sa halalan sa Mayo.

Ibig sabihin, maaaring ituloy ni Vivienne angpagtakbo bilang kongresista sa unang distritong lungsod.

Naunang nireklamo ng katunggali niyang siRep. Vincent Crisologo na isang Amerikano siVivienne. Lumabas sa talaan na naging Ameri-can citizen ang negosyante noong 1993.

Ngunit napag-alaman na noong Nobyembreng isang taon ay nanumpa si Vivienne at mulingnakuha ang pagiging Pilipino niya.

“Having reacquired her Filipino citizenship,[Vivienne Tan] is deemed not to have lost herFilipino citizenship and is therefore a valid reg-istered voter,” ani Judge Henri Jean-Paul Intingng Quezon City Regional Trial Court Branch 95.

Edu & Pinstill a cou

“I think Edu Manzanoand Pinky Webb are still to-gether but they are justkeeping it hush-hush soPinky won’t have to go onleave because of Edu’s can-didacy. The rumor aboutTed and Pinky is just meantto drum up their radio pro-gram,” the source said.

I texted Edu about this.His reply: “Hi Dolly. Out ofthe profound respect I havefor Pinky, her family, andthe network, I would rathernot comment on that. Ihope you and IC are doingwell.”

No can do, Edu?

Mistakenidentity

At the taping of Ban-daoke, Carlene Aguilarmistook Starstruck avengerZeryll Lim for CristineReyes. She had to ask theshow’s staff if it wasCristine or not. She was re-lieved to find out that itwas just Cristine’s look-alike. “Kinabahan namanako bigla,” she uttered.

Their tiff over DennisTrillo happened many con-troversies ago but I guessthe sight of Cristine would,

indeed, open old wounds.Sometimes we think

things are over but wedon’t feel that it’s really finished. When our heart andmind don’t speak the samelanguage, we badly need aninterpreter.

Newscaster outI heard that my favorite

late-night weekend news-caster will soon be out of aprogram. Many of myfriends have often won-dered why the Kapuso net-work has not given thispretty anchor the kind ofbreak she deserves. Evenrelegated to a 12:30 a.m.Saturday and Sunday slot,she has actually inspired anumber of fans to form notone, but two clubs.

It’s always been a mys-tery to me why GMA 7 haskept her on the sidelines foso long. Two of my friendsfrom rival networks actual-ly lit up when they heardthis news. It’s obvious thatboth channels would bemore than willing to givethis anchor better exposuregiven a chance.

Pinatungan pa niBarrios ng karagda-gang P500,000 angTexters. Sinabi ni Bar-rios na mapupunta saPlayers’ EducationalTrust Fund ang pera.

“It’s not good toadapt an option of awalkout or even thinkabout a walkout,” aniBarrios.

“There are estab-lished rules and pro-cedures to properlyventilate a team’s dis-agreement with offici-ating so that the fansdo not become inno-cent and unwillingvictims of a team’sprotest over calls.”

Naniniwala siBarrios na hindi namauulit ang nang-yari dahil sa laki ngmulta.
