Bakit Nga Ba Gusto Nating Pumuti?

Bakit ang mga Pinoy, nagagalit sa lumabas na Bayo ads dahil racist daw, pero panay naman ang bili ng "whitening" products?

In the same way that foreigners like to be tan so that they'll look wealthy enough to regularly go on vacation to exotic locales/beaches, (Coco Chanel started the tanning trend in the 20's when she came home sunburnt after a vacay at the French Riviera).

Filipinos wanting to be white has less to do with colonial mentality and more to do with being associated with the upper class. (Leisure class/doing jobs that don't require toiling under the hot sun). I remember Glutamax using Gretchen Baretto as an image model, with the slogan "Kutis Mayaman".

Aanhin naman ang kutis mayaman kung astang matrona naman like her sister Claudine Baretto? (Remember the Claudine Barreto, Raymart Santiago and Mon Tulfo brawl at the NAIA Terminal 3?)

Ang Sirena Sa Terminal 3 ng NAIA

Out of This World 
(Sing to the tune of Part of Your World from the Little Mermaid movie)

Looking around here you think
That Claudine’s got everything
I’ve got hubbie Raymart and friends a-plenty
I’ve got Mon Tulfo’s shoeprint and bruises galore
You want threats and bad publicity?
I’ve got plenty!
But who cares?
No big deal...
I want more !

I wanna be back there at NAIA Terminal 3
I wanna scream, wanna hear myself cursin’
Punching abound with my– fists, with no rest
My bottom is fish (I smell), my top is woman (I yell)

Down where Mon took the video (pictures), seeing me berating Bocboc and Ilagan
At a counter in the baggage claim area I was caught in the act
Now I'm the Tulfo brothers enemy – wish I could flee
Out of this world !

Sin Bin

According to Wikipedia,  The sin bin (sometimes called the penalty box, bad box, or simply bin) is the area in ice hockey, rugby league, rugby union and some other sports where a player sits to serve the time of a given penalty, for an offense not severe enough to merit outright expulsion from the contest. Teams are generally not allowed to replace players who have been sent to the penalty box.

A player who has committed a foul can be sent to sit for a specified period.

The Tulfo brothers, Ben, Erwin and Raffy has recently been sent to the Sin Bin.

Thrilla In NAIA

It was the day Floyd Mayweather, Jr faced off with Miguel Cotto on the ring, but it turned out that another brawl got the limelight on May 6, as a columnist and a celebrity couple figured in a fistfight at the airport.

Do celebrities have any privacy nowadays? Is it unethical for people to take photos of stars in public places without their consent? This issue is brought to light once more following the brawl that transpired yesterday between Philippine Daily Inquirer columnist and TV5 host Ramon Tulfo and actor Raymart Santiago and wife actress Claudine Barretto at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport 3.

In plain view of passengers shuffling through Terminal 3 of the Ninoy Aquino International Airport, Tulfo,  Santiago and his wife, Barretto, got involved in a brief scuffle, which left Tulfo’s face swelling from the barrage of punches, and Barretto with a few bruises.
