QUEZON CITY, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles) – All is set for the grand homecoming of 2015 Miss Universe Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach.  The beauty queen arrives in Manila on January 23 to a rousing welcome by her Filipino fans.

It is a packed schedule for the new Miss Universe, ranging from press conferences, television shows, a ticker-tape parade and many other public appearances.

One thing that’s not going to happen, however, is a previously scheduled exclusive interview with Wurtzbach on Kris Aquino’s morning show, Kris TV. It was supposed to be the first one-on-one television interview with Wurtzbach in the Philippines.

Kris, the sister of President NoyNoy Aquino, announced today that she had disinvited Miss Universe from her scheduled appearance on her show.

The talk show host, who claims to be the “Queen of All Media,” said her decision to snub Wurtzbach came immediately after the new Miss Universe was interviewed on a live radio show in New York where she was asked about the rumors that she was dating the Philippine president.

“That is so no. It’s so funny,” Wurtzbach said during the radio interview.

That response by Wurtzbach hurt Kris, who just months earlier, interviewed the then newly-crowned Miss Philippines-Universe.  During that interview on the show, “Aquino and Abunda,” Kris asked if Wurtzbach was dating her brother.  She then promised Wurtzbach that she would be a good “sister-in-law.”

“I cannot believe Pia would embarrass me and my brother,” Kris said. “From now on, I will not have anything to do with her.  I am canceling my exclusive interview with her on my show.”

When The Adobo Chronicles  informed Wurtzbach about Kris Aquino’s decision, the ever-graceful Miss Universe simply said, “I understand how she feels, but I’m not going to lie. I wish her all the best.”

 

A Simple “I’m Sorry” From Japanese Actress Maria Ozawa Settles Vehicular Accident In Manila

MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles) – When a motorist hits your car and causes damage, your first impulse is to seek compensation or turn to your vehicle insurance policy.  Not in Manila.  Especially not if the other motorist is Japanese actress Maria Ozawa.

Ozawa, who became famous appearing in adult movies, is in the Philippines where she just completed a local film which competed in the recent Metro Manila Film Festival.

The van in which she was riding hit a car, and panic ensued.

But as soon as Ozawa alighted from her van and said “I’m sorry, I’m sorry” to the aggrieved driver, that was the end of it.

The driver even took selfie photos with the actress using his smart phone.

It pays to be an adult film actress in the Philippines!

 

STEVE HARVEY INVITES MISS PHILIPPINES AND MISS COLOMBIA TO ‘FAMILY FEUD’

imageNEW YORK, New York (The Adobo Chronicles) – In an effort to repair his reputation as a television host after that Miss Universe gaffe on Sunday, Steve Harvey has extended an invitation to Miss Philippines and Miss Colombia to appear on his syndicated show, ‘Family Feud.’

“I hope that both Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach and Ariadna Guetierrez will accept my invitation for them to be my guests during the show’s special Miss Universe edition, ” Harvey said.

“Family Feud” is an American television game show created by Mark Goodson where two families compete to name the most popular responses to survey questions in order to win cash and prizes.

For the special Miss Universe edition, there will only be two individual contestants — not families: Miss Universe and the first runner-up.

No crown and no prizes will be at stake, but Harvey hopes that his gesture will settle once and for all the controversy surrounding his mistake during the pageant finals in which he announced Miss Colombia as the new Miss Universe only to reverse himself moments later to say that it was actually Miss Philippines who won the contest.

“This invitation is also made in the spirit of sincere apology, camaraderie and world peace,” the TV host concluded.

And the survey said. . .
