Awra Incident: Bolt Hole Bar Issues A Non-Apology Apology!

MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – There are always two sides to a story. But occasionally, there are three!

TV personality Awra was arrested and “illegally” detained by the police after a ruckus that happened at The Bole Hole Bar. Some cried foul over the arrest while others said it was Awra and her group that triggered the unfortunate incident.

Then there’s the apology from the bar featuring a well-crafted public statement expressing sadness over the incident.

The problem is, the bar’s apology seemed not to be an apology at all.

The Adobo Chronicles ran an AI-generated check on the bar’s statement and the GPT returned our query saying that the text of the apology was 100% AI-generated.

Not that we think the apology was not sincere. Only that the bar used a ghost writer. A non-human ghost writer.

Dancing in the QC Session Hall

QUEZON CITY, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Quezon City Bureau) – Citizens of Quezon City didn’t have to look far (to the Senate) to see how their legislative chambers are being turned into a circus arena.

Actress-turned-Quezon City District 5 councilor Aiko Melendez stirred up controversy after uploading TikTok videos that featured her and fellow officials dancing inside the Quezon City session hall. The videos, set to Mariah Carey’s Touch My Body, were filmed prior to the official session on June 19 at the Quezon City Hall legislative building.

In one video, Aiko was joined by Julian Trono, the chairman of Sangguniang Kabataan (SK) in Quezon City. Aiko jokingly captioned the video, “With SK Federation President for QC councilor @Julian Trono, fun times before the session.” 

The Adobo Chronicles reached out to Melendez for comment and she had this to say:

“I have no regrets for shooting the TikTok video. My only regret is that instead of using Maria Carey’s song, I should have used “Respect” by Aretha Franklin.”
