QUEZON CITY, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles) – Actress and television host Kris Aquino has just added a new title to her name : Tell-all Queen.

The younger sister of President NoyNoy Aquino is known as the ‘Queen of All Media’ and the ‘Oprah Winfrey’ of the Philippines (or so she wished).

Her newest accolade came just days after she publicly revealed details of her botched romantic relationship with former child actor and now mayor of Quezon City Herbert Bautista.

In a post on her blog titled “The State of My Heart,” Aquino described how after a few months of being in a relationship, a “tired” Bautista popped “the least romantic proposal a woman has ever received.” She apparently said ‘yes’ to Bautista’s marriage proposal.

Aquino is known as a celebrity who can’t seem to keep her personal life in wraps. Previously, she made public what she described as her abusive relationship with a married politician, Joey Marquez,  and accused him of giving her a sexually-transmitted disease.

Recently, amid rumors that her president brother was ‘dating’ Miss Philippines-Universe Pia Wurtzbach, Aquino promised — during a live broadcast — that she would make for a great sister-in-law.

Speaking to reporters today, Aquino said she was humbled but very appreciative of the new title given  to her and promised to do her best to live up to it.

 

OPRAH GIVES AWAY FREE WEED TO HER LIVE TV SHOW AUDIENCE

imageLOS ANGELES, California  (The Adobo Chronicles) – Who could forget those live television moments when Oprah Winfrey gave away free cars and paid Australian trips to the live audience of her The Oprah Winfrey Show?  

The show ended in 2011 and Winfrey established her own television network soon thereafter -the Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN).

Today, Winfrey taped a new television special that is reminiscent of the defunct Oprah Show, complete with a live audience and a surprise give-away item.

During the show, Winfrey asked the audience members to look under their seat for their free gift.  They found a pack of weed (marijuana). “Everybody gets love,” she announced. Pandemonium ensued.

How times have changed.

The TV special airs on  April 1st on OWN. Click HERE to watch the video segment.

Los Angeles, California (The Adobo Chronicles) – Queen of All Media Oprah Winfrey came out in support of Filipina singer Charice Pempengco when the latter reunited with the talk show host for an interview set to air October 19 on the Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN).

Winfrey once touted Charice as “the most talented girl in the world.” The 22-year-old former Glee star came out in the Philippines last year as a lesbian.  The interview is her official ‘coming out’ on U.S. television.

During the interview, Winfrey, who is godmother to Charice, asked the Filipina singer if she “were thinking about transitioning to becoming a male.”

Charice was reportedly very nervous about doing the interview, but Winfrey calmed her down and said this was her “homecoming.”

So there you have it.  Oprah and Charice both coming out on national television.
