MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Filipino drag artist Pura Luka Vega is reportedly planning to take legal action against the series of “persona non grata” declarations issued by more than a dozen cities in the country. The declarations were an offshoot of Vega’s drag performance dressed as Jesus Christ, singing along to a rock version of “Ama Namin” (The Lord’s Prayer).

To formalize her intentions, Vega posed in front of the Department of Justice in a pink ensemble which many say is a direct message of her support for Leni Robredo who is expected to run for senator in the 2025 Philippine elections.

But when informed about Vega’s selfie, the ex-Vice President said, “Thanks, but no thanks,” adding that she has changed colors from pink to blue in anticipation of a more effective and successful campaign.

Many will recall that during the 2022 presidential elections, Robredo chose pink for her campaign color, shifting away from the Aquino yellowism under which she ran for and won the vice presidency.
