Emotional Pinky Amador shares learning after curse-filled outburst


MANILA – For the first time, Pinky Amador granted a one-on-one sit-down interview to talk about her curse-filled outburst that was caught on video and went viral on social media early this month.

The clip captured an enraged Amador cursing at a woman inside what appears to be an office, as the actress demands for a supposed long overdue "circular."

Amador, who is wearing a face mask in the video, mentions numerous times her life being endangered, referring to overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) supposedly being allowed to check in at the building where she lives.

Speaking to Korina Sanchez for “Rated K,” Amador explained that she was merely asserting her right as a resident of the said building.

“Yung buong mundo ngayon, nasa kalagitnaan tayo ng pandemya. Lahat ng tao nagtatago, nagkukulong, takot. Pati na rin ang mga kasama ko sa aking building, lahat kami sobrang nabahala. Pati na rin ako kasi pinaglalaban ko lang naman 'yung karapatan ko at naming lahat sa building na mabuhay na ligtas sa sakit,” she said.

Saying she lives alone, Amador said she is afraid to catch the respiratory illness because no one would be looking after her.

“Alam mo, hindi ko kasi kaya magkasakit dahil mag-isa lang ako. Takot akong magkasakit. Kapag nagkasakit ako, wala na tutulong sa akin dahil sarili ko lang ang inaasahan ko. Marami pa akong gustong gawin sa buhay ko. Marami pa akong gustong tulungan, marami pa akong gustong turuan,” she said.

Amador also said she has nothing against OFWs.

“Ang mga OFW natin, bayani ng bayan. Bakit naman ako magagalit sa kanila? Sa katunayan, naging OFW din ako. Mahal ko ang mga OFW. Natutuwa pa nga ako kung makakatulong ang building namin sa pagtatanggap sa kanila para makauwi na sila. Ang naging problema lang dito, hindi kami sinabihan,” she said.

“Hindi ba worldwide protocol iyan na kailangan nalalaman ng lahat kung saan nanggagaling ang mga manlalakbay? Utos sa atin ng gobyerno na kailangan sinasabi natin lahat ang ating travel history para makapag-ingat tayong lahat. 'Yun lang naman ang hinihingi namin sa administration ng building namin. Bakit hindi nila maibigay? Ano ba ang tinatago nila,” she added.

After what happened, Amador acknowledged that her outrage may have gone too far.

“Maaaring sumobra talaga 'yung galit ko na nakapagsalita ako ng masasakit, na nainsulto ko ang mga kausap ko at pati na rin ang mga nanood ng video. Ang hinihingi ko lang naman is paumanhin dahil sa bugso ng damdamin, takot na takot na ako. Galit na galit na kaming lahat. Hindi namin alam kung bakit kami binabastos at binabalewala para sa isang bagay na dapat naman nilang ibigay sa amin,” she said.

When asked if she plans to a file case against anyone, she said: “Pinag-iisipan pa namin kasi I live alone. Doon pa rin ako nakatira sa building na 'yun. Siyempre hindi mawawala sa isipan mo na baka balikan ka or baka pahirapan ka nila. Marami sila, mag-isa lang ako. Kailangan makapagdesisyon ako ng tama para maging ligtas pa rin ako.”

Amador then turned emotional as she shared her learning from this experience.

“Tinamaan din naman ako ng malaki dito. Nakasakit ako, nasaktan din ako. I’ve learned my lesson. But this isn’t about me. This isn’t about Pinky Amador. Tungkol ito sa nakararami,” she said.

“Para sa ibang mga building administration na sana pangalagaan nila ang kalusugan ng mga nakatira doon. Sana pangalagaan nila 'yung pagbigay ng impormasyon. Napakahalaga ng impormasyon sa panahon ng pandemya,” she added.

During this uncertain time, Amador said it is important that Filipinos would help one another.

“Rated K” tried to get the side of the building administration where Amador lives but they refused to give any other statement, saying they are standing by what they have already said before.

That earlier statement is included in the video below.

How couple's love bloomed in Dangwa


MANILA - More than 15 years ago, couple Lawrence and Lorry dela Rosa discovered that not only flowers bloom in Dangwa.

Lorry had just graduated from college in Baguio when her father sent her to Manila to help in their family's flower shop business.

Meanwhile, Lawrence, the son of a farmer, wanted to try his luck in Manila after a storm destroyed their crops in Cabanatuan, Nueva Ecija. He became a florist in his aunt's flower shop.

It was in 1999, when Lawrence first saw Lorry in Dangwa. It was love at first sight.

"Sobrang simple kasi niya e. 'Yun ang hinahanap ko sa isang babae Walang makeup. Walang arte sa katawan. Hindi ako nagdalawang-isip talaga na bigyan siya ng rose. Nahanap ko na 'yung babaeng para sa akin," he shared to "Rated K."

Like any young lady, Lorry admitted that he was surprised and irritated when Lawrence, then a stranger, suddenly gave her a rose.

"Nagulat ako, tapos nahiya. Medyo iritable rin kasi parang... 'sino ba 'to? nagbibigay ng bulaklak, di ko naman kakilala,'" she said.

After that, Lawrence said he decided to give Lorry roses every single day to express his love. And according to Lorry, he never missed a day.

Lawrence love for Lorry just kept on growing everyday. But little did he know that Lorry's love for him was secretly growing like a rose.

In 2000, Lorry could not hide her feelings anymore and confessed her love to Lawrence. But her father in Baguio, upon hearing the news, immediately called her back home.

A sad Lorry went back to Baguio without telling Lawrence. "Nagalit po ako, naiyak ako. Nagtampo po ako pero hindi ako umalis ng bahay."

Lawrence knew from the very first time that Lorry's family was doubtful of him. But it did not discourage him and instead, he used it as a motivation to work harder.

From working as a florist, he became a flower designer and eventually an event stylist. He also won flower arrangement contests to add to his market value. All these he did while he was searching for Lorry.

"Siyempre noong una, may kaba at takot. Nangangamba ako. Bakit bigla siyang nawala? Nagtanong-tanong ako bakit siya nawala. Akala ko katapusan na namin ni Lorry," he said.

When he received information that Lorry was back in Baguio, he immediately went there, met his lover's parents face to face and asked for her hand.

Lorry's parents saw Lawrence's good intentions for their daughter, and the rest, as they say, was history.

As a married couple, Lawrence and Lorry transformed their flower shop business into a small events styling company.

Now, they not only own flower shops, but also have their own farm where they grow their own roses, their family and create new happy memories. — Rated K, February 8, 2015

Korina goes on leave from radio show


MANILA - Veteran broadcaster Korina Sanchez has taken a leave of absence from her daily morning show "Rated K" on DZMM to allow her more time to finish pending tasks.

In a statement, Sanchez said she is currently back in school, finishing her Master's Degree at the Ateneo de Manila University.

"Muntik na akong ibagsak ng dalawa kong propesor dahil sa absence at late submissions kaya talagang hindi ko mapagsabay," Sanchez said, adding that a post-graduate degree has been on her bucket list.

Last June, Sanchez said she asked permission from ABS-CBN management to allow her to take a leave from her top-rating radio program.

"Ang trabaho naman nariyan lang at ang sabi naman sa akin ng mga boss, kapag ayos na lahat ay makakabalik naman ako. Gusto ko na talaga itong iraos," she said.

Amy Perez and Marc Logan will take over Sanchez's timeslot in their new program called "Sakto," which will focus on stories mainly about family, but will also tackle current issues.

"Sabi ko kina Amy at Marc, basta sana i plug pa rin nila ang Tsinelas Campaign namin para sa mga bata. Cute ang show nila," said Sanchez, who has been giving away rubber slippers to poor children for several years.

"Sakto" will air Mondays to Fridays from 10 to 11 a.m. on DZMM Radyo Patrol 630 and DZMM Teleradyo.

Sanchez is scheduled to renew her contract with the Kapamilya network. She will continue her top-rating Sunday magazine show Rated K and co-anchor TV Patrol with 'Kabayan' Noli de Castro and Ted Failon.

The award-winning broadcaster earlier addressed speculations about her alleged suspension after being absent on TV Patrol. She said she had to work on a scheduled special on typhoon-hit areas for her TV show.

Meanwhile, Sanchez said 2013 has been a fruitful year for her after she got several awards including the Anak TV Award for Rated K, and Best Female TV Newscaster during the 3rd Makatao Awards for Media Excellence given by the People Management Association of the Philippines (PMAP).

"New Year's wish ko na sana walang dumapo na kahit anong trahedya sa Pilipinas. At tuloy-tuloy na ang paghilom ng Kabisayaan. Sana matapos ko itong pag-aaral ko nang magagandang grades, ang hirap eh. May mga malalapit akong kamag anak na may sakit na sana gumaling na. Sana mabayaran ko lahat ng obligasyon ko. Maliban doon, puro pagpapasalamat na. I can't ask for anything more, sobra ang blessings ko na sana Ituloy lang ng Panginoon ngayong taon," she 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.
