Andrea Brillantes showed her love for her idol Taylor Swift by watching her “The Eras Tour” in Tokyo, Japan recently.
Brillantes created quite a stir as she attended the concert in a French fries costume.
Not to be outdone, her nemesis — imagined or otherwise — Kathryn Bernardo flew all the way to Melbourne, Australia, also to watch Taylor Swift.
Bernardo was in simple chic outfit, a Taylor Swift T-shirt paired with a metallic mini skirt.
In a short video, Bernardo was seen enjoying Taylor’s hit songs which seemingly describe how one moves on after a failed relationship — “Shake It Off” and “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together.”
Who can forget that Brillantes figured prominently in the breakup of Bernardo and Daniel Padilla?
Heart Evangelista’s gift: An ultra rare Paraiba tourmaline ring
“Something Blue,” Heart Evangelista wrote in her caption of the photo of her blue ring, a birthday gift to her from husband Senator Chiz Escudero.
One fan made a rough estimate on how much the ring costs, saying:
“Light Blue Diamond Price: P1.5M (.5carat) sa tingin ko nasa 5ct ‘yan so baka nagri-range ng P8-10M ‘yan!”
Another fan said: “Hindi lang rare ‘yan, ultra rare ‘yang singsing na yan. That is paraiba tourmaline (that’s not just rare, it’s ultra rare. That is Paraiba tourmaline).”
In our research we saw that the gems can cost quite a bit: “Quality Paraiba tourmalines range from $2,000 to $50,000 per carat. Because of the value and rarity of this stone, purchasing a larger number of small stones is often more feasible than finding a multi-carat, genuine Paraiba on the market.”
The Heart Evangelista-Chiz Escudero renewal of marriage vows had netizens gushing over the opulence of the event, more so when the actress-socialite wore something nobody can sneer at.
The blushing bride wore an intricately sewn-to-perfection Elie Saab gown.
And envy reared its ugly head when one basher commented on an Instagram page exclusive to Evangelista: “It’s all people’s money. Why can’t you just use it for the Filipino people instead of splurging it and showing it off.”
Evangelista’s fans seethed with anger as one retorted with, “people’s money? Is it because her husband is a politician? Heart worked hard for her money, let her enjoy it. Don’t give her the responsibility to help the poor, it’s her decision whether to help or not. Besides, it’s not her fault if there are poor families.”
Another one claimed, “your ignorance shows and so does your jealousy and stupidity. Grow up and go make some big bucks yourself so you can go help the poor you care so much about. I bet you can’t even help people in your family or in your neighborhood.”
Maybe the basher wasn’t aware that Escudero gave his wife a blue tourmaline ring as a birthday gift, otherwise more venom could have been spit over the celebrity couple.
No photos, no videos: Luis and Jessy church wedding very private
Seems like Jessy Mendiola and Luis Manzano want the utmost privacy in their church wedding that neither one of them have shared photos or videos.
In a post on X (formerly Twitter), entertainment reporter MJ Felipe announced that “Luis and Jessy Mendiola-Manzano just tied the knot in a church wedding in Coron, Palawan earlier today.”
“Father Tito Caluag officiated the wedding attended by families and friends of the couple.
“Jessy and Luis’ civil wedding was held last February 2021 at The Farm in San Benito in Batangas,” Felipe added.
In exasperation, perhaps, one fan wailed: “pakisabi itago na lng nila mga pics feeling relevant masyado bwal magpost mga bisita para s vlog nmn (Please tell them to just keep their pictures to themselves. They think they’re so relevant, not allowing their visitors to post anything because it’s for their vlog).”
Another one retorted in the couple’s defense: “It’s their event so respect the wishes of bride and groom. We are not their guests so we just have to wait what they can share to public.”
