Teen daughter of US comedienne O'Donnell missing

NEW YORK, United States - The teenage daughter of American chat show host and comedienne Rosie O'Donnell is missing and police are looking for her in New York, the television star announced Tuesday.

Chelsea O'Donnell, 17, was last seen a week ago, the comedienne said on her website accompanied by a photograph of her daughter.

Chelsea left home with her therapy dog and is in need of medical attention after she stopped taking her medicine, O'Donnell said.

Police have been looking for her in the Rockland County area of New York, north of Manhattan, since August 16, O'Donnell said.

She was last seen wearing a black hooded sweatshirt, dark ripped blue jeans, women's grey converse sneakers and a black backpack.

Chelsea has a large tattoo of a dream catcher with the word "Breathe" and was with her six-month-old terrier Bear.

The comedienne appealed on anyone with any information to contact authorities or ring emergency services.

O'Donnell, who has also acted in films alongside Tom Hanks, was in the headlines most recently over a spat with billionaire White House contender Donald Trump.

Trump insulted her appearance during the Republican candidates' television debate earlier this month when questioned about his attitude to women.

Ai Ai thanks boyfriend for not giving up

MANILA – Comedienne Ai Ai delas Alas turned emotional on Sunday as she thanked her businessman boyfriend Jed Salang for not giving up on their relationship after their most recent misunderstanding.

Speaking on “The Buzz” on Sunday, delas Alas said she feels grateful to have Salang by her side despite her insecurities in life.

“Thank you for not giving up on us. Thank you na hinabol mo ako, hindi ka nawalan ng pag-asa. Thank you for loving me,” she said.

Last week on "The Buzz," her manager Boy Abunda confirmed that she and Salang are going through a rough patch. This was after the comedienne immediately left the country after her concert with South Korean rapper Psy to go to the United States.


 On Sunday, delas Alas bared that it was when she was in the U.S. that she realized that she deserves a chance at love.

“Ang dami kong insecurities sa buhay, ang dami kong dinaanan pagdating sa love life. Sobrang takot na takot ako nung nakarelasyon ko si Jed kasi alam naman natin na bata siya, marami pa siyang makikita, pero siyempre iba pa rin ang ganda ko. 'Yung insecurities ko nagkapatong-patong, 'yung tampuhan namin nagkapatong-patong. And then nung lumipad ako sa America, doon ko na-realize na siguro bigyan ko ang chance ang sarili ko na umibig muli,” she said.

Saying Salas is God-given, delas Alas said she will do her best to make their relationship work.

“Lahat naman ng tao walang kasiguruhan ang buhay. Sabi ko anong magiging garantiya ko na kapag hindi si Jed, isang matanda or kaedad ko, paano ako magiging sure na magwo-work out kami? Sabi ko baka ito nga ang binigay ni Lord and maging happy na lang ako sa binigay niya. Ilalaban ko ang relasyon namin until the end,” she said.

Salang, for his part, said he is willing to marry delas Alas for as long as the actress would want to spend the rest of her life with him.

“Kasal? Siguro iyon kung tatanggapin ako ni Ai,” he said.

Ai Ai denies she and boyfriend got married

MANILA, Philippines – Comedienne Ai Ai delas Alas denied that she and boyfriend Jed Salang, a businessman 20 years her junior, have already tied the knot.

The rumors started after they were spotted wearing ring pendants, which many believe are really their wedding rings. A “wedding photo” of the couple was also leaked.

But in an interview on “Rated K” that aired on Sunday, the comedienne said the photo is fake.

“‘Yung photo na yan ay chika photo lang namin kasi masyadong excited na kaming pakasal. Kaya sa picture lang muna,” she told host Korina Sanchez.

“Kasi emotionally at saka physically hindi pa kami masyado pang ready,” she explained.

They did not explain about the supposed wedding rings.

Delas Alas also revealed that she still wants to have a child with Salang. The “Sisterakas” star has two children with former husband Miguel Vera and another son from a previous relationship.

“May balak pa pero, ano na, via scientific experimentation,” she said.

“Gusto ko kasi medyo may edad na ako so later on -- in case lang pero siyempre ayoko naman -- kung wala na kami, nakikita ko yung little Jed sa buhay ko,” she said.

Salang said he also wants to have a child with the comedienne.

“Ako gusto ko rin. Ganun din ‘yung iniisip ko. Sana huwag -- kasi eto talaga lagi niya sinasabi in the future baka iwan mo -- at least mayroon akong baby kay Ai Ai,” he said.

Ai Ai defends relationship with younger man

MANILA, Philippines - Even cougars deserve to be happy and loved.

In an interview with KrisTV on Friday, comedienne Ai Ai delas Alas, who's now with Jed Salang, a businessman 20 years her junior, said a relationship between a woman who's much older than a man is possible with God's love.

Delas Alas said she's aware that people might think that Salang is just after her wealth. She added, however, that what's important in a relationship is not the age or wealth gap but love.

"Palagi namang ganoon eh. Minsan sinasabi ko sa sarili ko yung kapag may ibang tao yun ang sinasabi, minsan tinatanong ko ang sarili ko 'bakit hindi ba ako pwedeng mahalin ng isang disenteng bata?' Hindi ba, pwede naman. Mukha lang akong walang pinag-aralan pero college gradute ako. Sabi ko 'cute naman ako, maputi naman ako, maganda naman ako, pwede naman, hindi ba?' So yun sinasabi ko na lang sa sarili ko," delas Alas said.

"Hindi lahat parating puro pera. Hindi lahat ito yung habol ng isang tao. Pwedeng mangyari na ang dalawang  tao ay nagmamahalan ng hindi lang dahil sa ganoon," she added.

"Sa aming dalawa, wala kaming sabit. Wala siyang sabit, wala akong sabit. May mga anak kami pero parating tinatanong 'bakit siya (si Ai Ai) eh mas matanda siya sa iyo?' Yun lang  naman ang deprensiya namin yung age namin. Ngayon naniniwala ako na age doesn't matter. Ang pag-ibig, hindi nakikita sa kung ano ang edad mo. Ang pag-ibig hindi nakikita kung mahirap o mayaman ka. Ang pagmamahal nandoon yon, emosyonal yon, it's a universal feeling na nararamdaman ng dalawang tao na hindi natin mae-explain kung bakit. Ako I think noong una ko siyang nakita, nararamdaman ko 'ito destiny ko.'"

Salang comes from a well-off family and works as a manager in the family's car dealership.

Salang said he doesn't mind people asking him why he chose delas Alas.

"(Ang sagot ko) hindi ko alam, wala naman kayong magagawa, yun ang gusto ko eh. Para sa akin, kapag nagtataong 'Babe, tinitignan mo ba yung age gap natin?' Sabi ko 'ako hindi ko maramdaman yung age natin ay ganito. Parang feeling ko ay magkasing-age tayo, magkasing level tayo, yung ganoon,'" Salang said.
