MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – “Die Beautiful” is one of the film entries in the ongoing Metro Manila Film Festival.  It is drawing both crowds and acclaim for the portrayal of a transgender Filipino pursuing her dream of becoming a national beauty queen.

Amid the joys and tribulations of the gay pageant world, the film introduces dark secrets, one bit at a time, until you stop laughing and start crying with its main character, Trisha Echevaria.

But if there is one secret that the film reveals — as no other film has — it is how to make fake boobs.

Ever wonder how male bodies create the illusion of cleavage?

Go watch the film.

Clue: you would need a lot of plastic tape.

The Adobo Chronicles gives this film 5 stars!

NEW YORK, New York (The Adobo Chronicles, New York Bureau) – Many have wondered why Kanye West was seen at the Trump Tower in New York, striking a pose with the president-elect and daughter Ivanka.

Well, wonder no more.

Reliable sources told The Adobo Chronicles that Donald Trump is set to appoint West to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). The controversial rap singer will be one of five commissioners.

FCC is an independent agency of the United States government, created by Congressional statute  to regulate interstate communications by radio, television, wire, satellite, and cable in all 50 states, the District of Columbia and U.S. territories. The FCC works towards six goals in the areas of broadband, competition, the spectrum, the media, public safety and homeland security, and modernizing itself.

When asked what qualifies West to be an FCC commissioner, Trump said, “He is familiar with media and we’ve been friends for a long time. Ivanka is also good friends with West’s wife, Kim Kardashian. The couple will bring a much-needed celebrity status to my administration, not to mention diversity.”

L-R: Aquino, Uson, Harvey

MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – It was Kris Aquino’s dream gig. A big way to stage her comeback from her on-again, off-again retirement from show business.

When the Miss Universe Organization announced its search for a Filipino female co-host for the pageant finals to be held in Manila on January 29 (January 30 Philippine time), the former presidential sister and “Queen of All Media” immediately signed up to audition for the prized gig.

Today, Aquino received a text message from the organization that she has not been selected to be Steve Harvey’s co-host.

The disappointing news became even more devastating when she learned that the person chosen to co-host the show is entertainer-turned-politcal blogger Mocha Uson.

In an exclusive interview with The Adobo Chronicles,  a spokesperson for the Miss Universe Organization who spoke on condition of anonymity said that despite the two ladies’ almost equal talent, Uson was chosen because of her popularity (she has over 4 million Facebook followers).  Additionally, the pageant executives wanted someone who looks like a beauty queen and whose features closely represent the Filipina beauty.

So ladies, if you want to increase your chances in show business, forget the skin-whitener and hair dye.  You’re beautiful as you are. Naturally.
