Matapos paghandaan at magbayad ng per plate... iconic actress Eva Darren, inisnab ng FAMAS

Kakaawa naman ang nangyari sa veteran actress na si Eva Darren.

Matapos paghandaan ang pagiging presentor sa FAMAS at magbayad pa ng P20,000 for four plates - P5,000 each plate pala, bumili ng susuutin at i-memorize ang spiel, hindi siya nakaakyat sa stage.

Ang katwiran ng FAMAS organizer hindi raw ito nakita sa venue kahit na nga may table number naman supposedly dahil nga per plate. Pinalitan diumano ang ang actress ng baguhang singer.

Ganito ang inireklamo ng anak ni Ma’am Eva sa social media, si Fernando de la Pena :

“A couple of months ago, she received a notice of invitation for the FAMAS awards night. For those of you who aren’t familiar, FAMAS (Filipino Academy of Movie Arts and Sciences Awards) is the equivalent of the USA’s Oscar Awards. She was also given a script to go over and memorize as an awards presenter coupled with another veteran actor, Mr. Tirso Cruz III.

“Mom was excited, bought the best dress and pair of heels she could afford and topped that with a nice package of hair and make up for the gala. During the event, she brought along three of her very proud grandkids. With a price tag of P5,000 ($90) per plate for four people, needless to say, it was not a cheap evening. It was all worth it though. After all, the last time she was on stage during a FAMAS awards night was back in 1969 when she received the coveted “Best Supporting Actress Award” for her role in the movie ANG PULUBI (The Beggar) opposite legendary actress Charito Solis.

“Being the true professional that my mother is, she memorized and rehearsed her script to perfection, braved the downpour of a Signal No. 1 Typhoon warning and drove to the Manila Hotel.

“After the glitz and glamour shots with air-cheek-kisses and what not, everyone eventually took their seats and the awarding commenced. During the point where she was supposed to present an award, her partner, Mr. Tirso Cruz III went upstage with an upcoming young singer instead. Not my mom.

“My mother never went on the stage.

“The PR officer of FAMAS who had been in constant communication with my mother prior to the event had absolutely no explanations to offer, just a thousand apologies. He confessed not knowing what happened and wasn’t sure why there was a last-minute change. My Mom said “it’s okay” but decided to leave nonetheless. I couldn’t blame her. Staying around was just rubbing salt on her FAMAS-inflicted wounds.

“You would think and assume that a “presti­gious award-giving body” who had been doing the same thing every year, over and over without fail, would have mastered their craft after 72 years. But no, not this entity.

“To all of you people behind FAMAS, you cannot do this to an icon of Philippine Cinema!

“It is RUDE… It is DISRESPECTFUL… It is UNETHICAL… it is UNPROFESSIONAL to say the very least!!!”

Nanghingi naman ng paumanhin ang FAMAS sa pamamagitan ni Ms. Francia Cheche Conrado, President at Filipino Academy of Movie Arts and Sciences Awards : “We are writing this with a heavy heart especially after hearing that Miss Darren and her family were terribly hurt by this unintentional disregard to her presence and stature. We truly value Miss Darren and the rest of the veteran stars present last night true to the Homecoming Concept of the show. But as there were brilliant moments to the most star-studded awards night in recent memory, there were also hitches and unfortunate developments in a live show such as this one. We understand that an apology alone cannot undo the damage this might have caused Miss Darren but we are committed to make amends and rebuild her trust by a personal visit of the FAMAS Board to honor her stature, if she allows it.”

Pero sabi nga, the damage has been done.

Kaya dapat ireimburse ang ginastos ni Ma’am Eva.

Ellen, tahimik pa sa isyung buntis na

Hindi pa sinasagot ni Ellen Adarna ang tanong ng ibang followers niya kung preggy na siya.

Pinag-uusapan nga na diumano’y natuloy na ang pagbubuntis nito matapos magkaroon ng miscarriage last year na inamin ng mister niyang si Derek Ramsay sa isang presscon.

Sumasagot si Ellen usuall sa mga comment ng followers niya kaya asahang aamin ito ng katotohanan, kung buntis ba siya o hindi.

Richard at Barbie, may gym sighting

Nag-post si Barbie Imperial ng workout photo sa kanyang Instagram story.

Pero pinag-usapan ang lalaking nasa background niya.

Ang hula nila, si Richard Gutierrez ‘yun.

Hirap daw kasing makilala. Bagama’t ang built daw, si Richard.

Well, wala naman talagang masama.

Or baka rin naman na-enjoy ni Barbie ang attention dahil si Richard ang kasama niya.

Spotted nga sila sa Amanpulo at recently sa South Korea.

Concert ni Darren, naalala kay Eva!

Makatulong daw kaya ang pag-viral ng veteran actress Eva Darren sa concert ni Darren Espanto?

Grabe naikonek nga ng mahuhusay gumawa ng story ang nangyaring pang-iisnab sa iconic actress bilang presenter dahil ang katwiran daw ng FAMAS ay hindi nila ito mahanap sa venue matapos magbayad ng table.

Hindi naniniwala ang mga showbiz observer dahil hindi naman ganun kalawak ang venue para hindi makita si Eva Darren.

Anyway, magaganap ang D10 concert ni Darren sa Araneta Coliseum sa June 1.
