Lea Salonga Hires New York Bouncer!

NEW YORK, New York (The Adobo Chronicles, New York Bureau) – Still reeling from the trauma of a fan storming her dressing room for a photo at the Broadway Theater in New York City, Filipina singer and actress Lea Salonga has engaged the professional services of a bouncer.

Salonga is currently starring in “Here Lies Love,” a musical about former Philippine First Lady Imelda Marcos’ astonishing rise to power and subsequent fall at the hands of the Philippine People Power Revolution. She plays Aurora Aquino, the mother of slain Senator Benigno “Ninoy Aquino.”

Since that fateful night, Salonga has been issuing statement after statement to the news and social media, defending herself and asserting her rights, even as a celebrity, to privacy and safe space.

To prevent the repeat of the harrowing incident, Salonga’s dressing room will now be guarded by an unnamed bouncer, provided by a New York private security agency.

That should serve as a warning for unauthorized fans to not even try to sneak into her dressing room for the rest of her engagement with the Broadway show.
