Teddy Boy Locsin’s latest apology is truly a masterclass in the art of backtracking. Apparently, suggesting that Palestinian children should be killed was just his idea of a witty retort. How silly of us to think that diplomacy should involve, well, diplomacy. Perhaps next time, Mr. Locsin could just use emojis instead of advocating for the harm of innocent children. It’s reassuring to know that when entrusted with delicate international relations, we can count on such nuanced and measured responses. Who needs peace when you can have a Twitter beef? Teddy, you’ve shown us that in the realm of diplomacy, subtlety is dead.
MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – The MTRCB (Movie and Television Review and Classification Board) has decided to extend the suspension of “It’s Showtime!” for an additional 12 days. The reason? A photo posted by the noon-time show’s cast showing Vice Ganda and others licking ice cream while vacationing in Hong Kong.
“They never learn,” the MTRCB declared, shaking their heads in dismay. This latest suspension comes hot on the heels of the previous one, which was imposed after an episode featured Vice Ganda and Ion Perez indulging in the outrageous act of licking cake icing.
It seems the MTRCB is determined to protect the moral fabric of our society, one tongue-licking incident at a time.
