Quezon City, Philippines – Kris Aquino, sister of Philippine President NoyNoy Aquino, has denied rumors that she is planning to run for vice president in 2016. The television host  made the denial during her show where co-host Boy Abunda asked her to categorically state, under oath and with her hand resting on a bible, whether or not she has intentions to become the country’s next vice president.

“Postively, not true.  Walang basis for lahat ng (all the) rumors about this,” Aquino responded in her trademark Taglish (Tagalog-English).

“You know me well, Boy,” she added, “I come from a very religious pamilya (family), and I cannot lie under oath or with my hand on top of this bible. I am not planning, and will not run para sa (for) position of VP.” But I am running for president!”

Minutes after she made the statement on her TV show, a  Facebook page was established by her fans and supporters –   ‘Kris Aquino For President’ – and received 1,000 “likes” in the first five minutes.
