Hawaiian Tropical Paradise ang tema ng debut: SOFIA, hands-on sa preparations para sa kanyang 18th birthday

SA April na ang 18th birthday ng Sparkle teen star na si Sofia Pablo. Kaya ngayon pa lang ay pinaghahandaan na niya ang special day na ito. 

Hands-on si Sofia sa preparations mula sa isusuot, disenyo ng venue, at pati na rin sa ihahandang mga pagkain.

Isang Hawaiian Tropical Paradise ang tema ni Sofia para sa kanyang debut.  Gusto raw niya na kumportable ang kanyang mga iimbitahan at hindi rin siya ma-stress sa kanyang sariling party.

“Malapit po ang heart ko sa dagat. Hindi rin po ako fan ng ball gown. Gusto ko lang po talaga comfy even for the guests. Hindi rin ako magpe-perform. Mag-enjoy lang po talaga.

“Kung ano ‘yung shortest program na kaya para lahat makapag-enjoy na after,” sey ni Sofia na ang escort ay walang iba kundi ang ka-loveteam niya na si Allen Ansay.

PINASAYA ng impersonator ni Taylor Swift na si Taylor Sheesh (Mac Coronel) ang mga Swifties na hindi nakabili ng ticket para sa The Eras Tour sa Melbourne, Australia.

Sa X (formerly Twitter), pinost ng Filipina Drag Artist ang video kunsaan dinumog ng maraming Aussie Swifties ang kanyang show sa labas ng isang mall at sinisigaw ang pangalan niya.

Bitbit pa ng ilan ang placards na nakalagay ang Taylor Sheesh. Sikat na sikat siya sa Australia dahil sa billboard niya roon.

Sa Tokyo, Japan nanood si Taylor Sheesh ng The Eras Tour in full Taylor Swift look. Ang ilang Filipino celebrities na nanood din sa Tokyo ay sina Andrea Brillantes, Angelika dela Cruz, Alexa Ilacad, Michelle Vito, Esnyr Ranollo, Criza Taa, Jen Barangan at ang Unang Hirit host na si Lyn Ching.

MAGSASAMPA ng demanda ang former Miss Universe president na si Paula Shugart sa Miss Universe owner at transgender businesswoman na si Anne Jakrajutatip.

Sa kanyang Instagram, sinabi ni Shugart na nanahimik na lang siya noong mag-step down siya as president noong November 2023.

Ngayon ay ‘di na raw niya palalagpasin ang mga paninirang-puri na kinakalat ni Anne tungkol sa kanyang pamumuno sa Miss Universe.

Heto ang kanyang post:

“Since announcing my resignation in November of 2023, I have sought to stay out of the spotlight, electing not to comment on any of the changes within the Miss Universe Organization, seeking only to quietly help the brand and its stakeholders, when requested, with my historical knowledge and guidance.

“However, recent false and outrageous comments made by Miss Universe owner Anne Jakrajutatip impugning my character have compelled me to break my silence.

“Normally, I would choose to ignore such assertions but, by suggesting that I am corrupt and took money “under the table” to secure placements in Miss Universe competitions, Jakrajutatip not only defames me, but she also discredits the women who have won the Miss Universe crown by implying their titles were “bought” and not earned by merit. I cannot abide by such dangerous and reckless assertions, which degrade the Miss Universe brand and its Titleholders.

“I am presently considering my legal options in Thailand and what actions I might take. However, given that my complaint will be just one of many legal actions currently facing the owner of JKN, it is imperative for the Miss Universe brand and its legacy that I immediately speak the truth and condemn these words before taking any action in Thai courts and I am reserving all rights to claim for damages.

“I have no intention or need to engage in drama on social media and I will not do so. Anyone who knows me knows the truth and what I stand for. I will let my years of work with some truly incredible women speak for itself.”
