L-R: Brand, Trump, Perry

Las Vegas, Nevada (The Adobo Chronicles) – What started as an online confrontation between Donald Trump and Russell Brand ended up in a hair-pulling physical altercation between Trump and Katy Perry in Las Vegas last night.

It all started when Trump tweeted that Brand is a loser and that Perry must have been drunk when she married Brand.

In response, Brand tweeted:

Judging by the retweets and favorites, we know who won the twitter battle.

But the story doesn’t end there.

Last night, Perry accidentally ran into Trump while the latter was waiting for his car outside Mandalay Bay where he attended a Republican fundraising dinner. Without warning and not saying a word, Perry attacked Trump pulling on his blond hair. Trump reacted by pulling on Perry’s purple hair.

Trump was seen in agony as Perry grabbed and pulled his hair. But as soon as Trump began to pull Perry’s hair, the whole thing came off. It was, of course, a wig.

Again, we know who won this battle.

Charice, left, with godmother Oprah Winfrey

Los Angeles, California (The Adobo Chronicles) – Queen of All Media Oprah Winfrey came out in support of Filipina singer Charice Pempengco when the latter reunited with the talk show host for an interview set to air October 19 on the Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN).

Winfrey once touted Charice as “the most talented girl in the world.” The 22-year-old former Glee star came out in the Philippines last year as a lesbian. The interview is her official ‘coming out’ on U.S. television.

During the interview, Winfrey, who is godmother to Charice, asked the Filipina singer if she “were thinking about transitioning to becoming a male.”

Charice was reportedly very nervous about doing the interview, but Winfrey calmed her down and said this was her “homecoming.”

So there you have it. Oprah and Charice both coming out on national television.

CNN TO MERGE WITH SWN SATIRE SITE IN THE PHILIPPINES

October 14, 2014 Pol Pinoy 1 Comment

Manila, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles) – First came the news that 9TV will become CNN Philippines in early 2015. Now, the international cable news network is reportedly in negotiations to acquire SWN (So What’s News?), a Filipino news satire site.

An unmaned CNN spokesperson told reporters that CNN is continuously looking to expand its operations around the world and is constantly searching for existing news media outlets to acquire or partner with.

“SWN’s mission statement is very consistent with what CNN is trying to accomplish in its international news operations,” the spokesperson said, adding that “like SWN, we are committed to bring positive, accurate, entertaining and timely news to our millions of customers. And just like SWN, we love to report on fiction.”

On its web site, SWN describes its product as “news that won’t make you depressed to read the news.” Critics who oppose the CNN-SWN merger pointed out that CNN’s reporting is known to make people very depressed, “so a merger with SWN is not a wise move at all.”

SWN refused to comment because negotiations are still ongoing.
