In a display of grandeur worthy of a telenovela, Cebu influencer Jude Bacalso recently schooled a waiter on misgendering for an impressive two-hour monologue.
Bacalso’s tirade, better suited for the senate floor before Senator Risa Hontiveros’ committee hearing on the SOGIE bill, unfolded in a restaurant, where the manager’s tolerance was evidently swayed by their friendship with Bacalso.
While many Filipinos accidentally misuse pronouns, this incident was far from a gentle correction. It was a full-blown theatrical production, with Bacalso as the self-appointed star. One must marvel at the restaurant’s management for allowing this spectacle to continue, all in the name of friendship.
Ironically, Bacalso’s own promotional video, where she praises her womanhood by mentioning the joy of “taking off the bra” and “scratching his balls,” reveals a curious double standard. This incident is a lesson not in gender sensitivity, but in the art of misplaced tantrums and unchecked privilege.
Bravo, Jude, for a performance we won’t soon forget!
In a cinematic spectacle that puts Hollywood to shame, the “polvoron video” teaser premiered in America and Canada, thanks to the audacious Maharlika and company.
Hoping to evade the long arm of justice, they released this digital marvel abroad. Almost instantly, savvy netizens exposed the video as a shoddy AI creation. The debunking reached Sherlock Holmes levels of sleuthing when the original clip was found—revealing Bongbong Marcos’ face clumsily superimposed.
The hilarity peaked with the realization that the hairstyle and rounded ears in the fake video were a far cry from the real Marcos, Jr.
Cue the frantic deleting spree as those who eagerly posted and reposted the video now scurry like mice, erasing their social media tracks and Messenger chats.
What a performance! It’s clear the real drama isn’t in the video itself, but in the aftermath of its spectacular flop.
And by the way, to prove that it’s so easy to create fake videos, we found this version starring no other than the fentanyl-crazed Rodrigo Duterte!
