DAVAO CITY, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Like a curse that just wouldn’t go away, television host and former presidential sister Kris Aquino was spurned yet again. This time by no less that Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte. Somebody come to her rescue already.  She deserves a break in her love life.

Aquino who was supposed to do a live interview with Duterte on Friday at a summit of micro, small and medium enterprises in Davao City.  It was billed as the TV host’s big television comeback after retiring repeatedly in the past.

Duterte was a no show.

But the ever gracious Aquino accepted her fate, saying, “Sometimes, first dates don’t push through.”

Maybe, Aquino will have better luck interviewing U.S. President-elect Donald Trump since both are in show business.
