Inggit sa katawan ni KC: Sharon tumaba na naman
Let this be a test to your musical genius, simpleng fill in the blanks lang ito from a Paul Williams’ song, here goes: “- - — - -, Sometimes it feels like - - - - - -, When all the others turn their backs and walk away, you can count on me to stay.”
Siret? As Gretchen Barretto would proudly say it, You & Me Against The World. Sa totoong buhay, whose backs have turned and walked away from Gretchen? Pero hindi na raw ito ang mahalaga as she dwells on the positive side of things, isa na rito ay ang kanyang bagong game show on TV5 which sets her apart and unaffectedly beautiful from the universe and its universal complexities.
Isang panibagong hamon ang You & Me Against The World sa hosting skills ni Gretchen which, to me, are sort of pambawi for both a serious actress and a recording artist that she is not.

At a disorganized non-showbiz event, nagpaka-showbis na agad si Sharon Cuneta as open forum with mixed press groups. Sey ng megastar: “O, ang itatanong n’yo ba, eh, kung kumusta ‘yung pagpunta namin ni Kiko (Sen. Francis Pangilinan) sa Hong Kong? Okey naman, okey kaming mag-asawa. O, ‘yung babae raw ng asawa ko? Diyos ko, ang tagal-tagal nang tsismis ‘yan, hinihintay ko nga na maglabas man lang kahit isang litrato nu’ng sinasabing the other woman ng asawa ko, inip na inip na nga ako, eh!”
No offense meant, malaki ang ‘inilaki’ ni Sharon, even she has decreed that it’s about time she went on a strict diet. “Bale, I’ll start pa lang, ‘yun ‘yong South beach pero pag hindi ko napigilan, baka mag-backslide, ang i-adopt kong diet, eh, North beach. Ha, ha, ha!” How she wished daw she could adopt her daughter KC’s a weight watch regimen. “For the past seven or eight years, KC has been a strict vegetarian.”
Back to the mishandled event, of course, it wasn’t the fault of Sharon. Nagpiyesta na lang ang showbiz press who left with more than a dozen stories worth writing about Sharon.
Hindi yata sanay sa pagho-hold ng presscon ang mga taong nasa likod nito, from the poor press kit distribution all the way to wrapping up the event considering na nag-imbita sila to a venue least accessible and convenient sa press na nasanay na sa Quezon City area as the heart of action.
Mag-seminar kaya sila sa CorpComm ng ABS-CBN known for its genuine warmth? Did I say ABS-CBN? Mismo!
