KRIS AQUINO NAMED AS CO-HOST OF MISS USA PAGEANT

BATON ROUGE, Louisiana (The Adobo Chronicles® ) – Things seem to be turning up roses for the  beleaguered Donald Trump and his Miss USA and Miss Universe pageants.

After his disparaging remarks about Mexicans during his announcement for a bid to become the Republican nominee for president, Trump lost both Univision and NBC Universal which were home networks for the live television coverage of the pageants.

Luckily, Trump found an ally in the little known Reelz cable network which agreed to air the Miss USA pageant live from Baton Rouge, Louisiana on July 12.

But then, five co-hosts of the Miss USA pageant all dropped out from their duties, including Thomas Roberts, Cheryl Burke, Roselyn Sanchez, Cristian de la Fuente and Jeannie Mai.

Luck comes twice in a row so to speak, when the Philippines’ self-proclaimed queen of all  media and presidential sister Kris Aquino agreed to co-host the Miss USA pageant this weekend. “It has always been my dream to be the host of the Miss Universe Pageant,” Aquino said, “and I hope hosting the Miss USA pageant is a stepping stone towards that dream.” CNN’s Don Lemon is rumored to be Aquino’s co-host for Miss USA.

What is left for Trump is to deal with the fallout from participating Miss Universe countries. Mexico, Panama and the Philippines have  dropped out of the Miss Universe pageant, and other Latin American countries are expected to follow suit.

But perhaps with the prestige that Aquino brings to the pageant, the boycotting countries might very well change their minds.

Stay tuned.

SEVERAL JOB OFFERS AWAIT KRIS AQUINO WHEN SHE MOVES TO THE U.S. IN 2016

Leave a comment

MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles) – Television host and presidential sister Kris Aquino is moving to the United States in 2016. This is no gossip, but something straight from the horse’s mouth.

Aquino, who lived in Boston during her late father Ninoy Aquino’s self-imposed exile, admitted those years were the happiest times of her life.  She said she wanted her son Bimby to experience the American lifestyle like riding the bus to school. She added that her own experience in America made her a well-rounded individual and she wished the same for her kid.

Upon hearing the news, several U.S. employers immediately offered Aquino guaranteed jobs upon her arrival. These include:

  • Cashier at Jollibee in San Jose, California
  • Dishwasher at Max’s Restaurant in Las Vegas, Nevada
  • Assistant cake maker at Goldilock’s Bakeshop in Los Angeles
  • Baggage inspector at the Boston’s Logan International Airport
  • Mail sorter at a U.S. Post Office processing facility just outside of Washington, D.C.
  • File clerk at FOREX Balikbayan Box Forwarders in Chicago, Illinois.

The Adobo Chronicles reached out to Aquino at her residence in Quezon City last night and she told us that she would prefer to work with OWN, Oprah Winfrey’s cable television network. After all, she considers herself the Oprah Winfrey of the Philippines.

No word yet from Winfrey.

KRIS AQUINO WANTS A HAPPY ENDING WITH MAYOR HERBERT BAUTISTA

Leave a comment

imageQUEZON CITY, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles) – Presidential sister, talk show host and actress Kris Aquino likes to talk on one side of her mouth.

In a recent episode of the show, ‘Aquino and Abunda Tonight,’ she told her viewers that she is not the same woman she was 15 months ago and that she has now fully matured.

Maybe. But not with regards to her love life.

Aquino has been romantically linked to fellow actor and Quezon City Mayor Herbert Bautista. It was announced that the couple will be making a film together.

While Aquino maintains that her romance with Bautista never “progressed,” she told her viewers that by agreeing to do a film with her former love interest, she will experience a — in her own words — ‘happy ending.’

So which is it, Ms Aquino: have you moved on or still clinging to some hope for a consummation of your romance? On or off the film set?
