It has been reported by one of the leading newspapers in the country, Philippine Daily Inquirer, that actress/TV Host Kris Aquino has hosted a dinner inviting a handful number of celebrities for her brother Noynoy Aquino last Sunday, October 4, 2009. Are the celebrities invited being wooed by Kris Aquino to help in her brother’s presidential campaign?
Some of the Kapamilya stars who attended the “intimate dinner” with Noynoy Aquino and the rest of the Aquino family are KC Concepcion, Piolo Pascual, Raymond Gutierrez, Bea Alonzo, Angelica Panganiban, Shaina Magdayao, John Pratts, Sam Milby, Anne Curtis, Erik Santos, Bianca Gonzales, Mariel Rodriguez, Pooh, Enchong Dee, K Brosas, Gail Blanco and Sitti. Of course, Noynoy Aquino’s running mate, Mar Roxas, was also in attendance.
In the past, celebrities under Star Magic aren’t allowed to endorse any political candidates. Will the Star Magic management lift that “order” to please one of their “gems?” Although there are rumors that Kris Aquino and Dingdong Dantes, a Kapuso talent, are currently negotiating regarding the possibility of the latter endorsing Noynoy, most of the artists in attendance on the Sunday dinner party were Kapamilya stars, if not all. What would the Star Magic management do?
However, an unidentified source has shared with the Inquirer that the stars who attended the dinner were not asked to commit to Noy. How true?
What can you say about this hullabaloo, Kris?
“I felt it was important na makaharap nila si Noy and my sisters,” Kris Aquino said.
“Since kami ang humihingi ng pabor, we should sit down with them and explain kung ano ang maiaambag nila sa kandidatura ni Noy at kung ano’ng maibabalik ni Noy sa Pilipinas.”
Celebrities who attended the dinner brought home a framed commemorative P5 bill, the first one signed by the late President Corazon Aquino when she assumed office in 1986.
Let’s see what would happen next. Kris Aquino is really living up to her promise to support her brother, huh?
