San Francisco, California (The Adobo Chronicles) – From San Francisco’s gay Castro district to the four corners of social media, people are swooning over Chris Kohrs, the “Hot Cop of Castro.”  He has become one of the most recognized faces in the city and the Internet, almost eclipsing the popularity of the Stockton suspected felon Jeremy Meeks whose posted mugshot sent top designers pursuing him for modeling contracts and product endorsements.

But Kohrs has just revealed that he is not a real cop. He simply donned a police uniform  so that he could fit in the crowd when he visited the Castro one day.  He knew that it was quite common for visitors to the famed gay district to dress in a variety of attires ranging from nuns to marines to cops to divas. Apparently, someone took a smart phone photo of Kohrs and posted it on the Internet.  That’s when it went viral.

Amused at his sudden popularity, he continued wearing the police uniform each time he walked by the Castro. “I sort of am enjoying the attention,” said the soft-spoken Kohrs. Although he is not gay, he says he likes the very friendly atmosphere in the Castro.

In speaking with The Adobo Chronicles, Kohrs said that so far, he has not received any call from designers, but that Ellen DeGeneres wants him on the Ellen Show. Perhaps the beginning of a new career?

Cleveland, Ohio (The Adobo Chronicles) – The world stands still as billions of people await the decision of LeBron James on which NBA team he will sign up with — Cleveland Cavaliers or back to Miami Heat. In an exclusive interview with The Adobo Chronicles, James confirmed what many feared: neither.

Instead, the star basketbal player has decided to leave NBA altogether. He is signing up with the PBA , the professional basketball league of the Philippines.

James is scheduled to fly to Manila this week to sign a contract with team KIA, a new PBA team owned by the Korean car manufacturing company. Recently, KIA annouced that it has named champion boxer and Philippine Congressman Manny Pacquiao as the team’s head coach.

James seems to love working with Filipinos. Miami Heat’s coach, Erik Spoelstra, is Filipino American.

JOAN RIVERS’ NEW BOOK BREAKS ALL BEST SELLER RECORDS

Leave a comment

imageNew York, NY (The Adobo Chronicles) – ‘Diary of a Mad Diva’ is the title of a new book by comedian and fashion police Joan Rivers, and it has broken all existing records for bestselling books.

The book is number one in the bestselling lists of The New York Times, The Washington Post, Chicago Tribune, Los Angeles Times, San Francisco Chronicle, People Magazine, Time, AARP Magazine, Congressional Quarterly, The Onion, and even the Guinness Book of World Records.

Thanks to the publicity stunt Rivers did during a live interview on CNN where she stormed out of the set in protest of what she called anchor Fredricka Whitfield’s ‘negative questions.’

The video clip immediately went viral and resulted in a temporary shutdown of many Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and Instagram accounts.

But it was not just Rivers and her new book that benefited from the stunt. CNN’s declining ratings since the disappearance of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 suddenly shot up to the roof of its Atlanta headquarters.

Rival cable networks Fox and MSNBC suspect that CNN was in on the stunt.
