JANINE BALIK-SOCMED MATAPOS MAMATAYAN NG 2 LOLA

NI BETH GELENA

BALIK-social media na si Janine Gutierrez after na magkasunod pumanaw ang dalawa niyang lola na sina Asia’s Queen of Songs Pilita Corrales at Superstar Nora Aunor.

Ang dalawang nabanggit at parehong legendary icon ng showbizness.

Sa broadcast channel on Instagram, ani Janine, first day niyang bumalik sa social media nang wala siya sa wake ng kanyang lolas.

Naalala niya nasa wake siya ng kanyang Mamita (Pilita) nang tumawag ang kanyang kapatid para magpabook ng isa pang room para naman sa kanilang grandma na si Ate Guy.

Corrales passed away on April 12, while Aunor died on April 16.

“It’s the first time in 10 days that I’m not at a wake. This Holy Week, my siblings and I lost two lolas, mama and papa’s mothers. Kakauwi lang namin galing sa wake ni Mamita ng mga alas-kwatro ng hapon nung April 16, pagdating ng alas-diyes ng gabi, tumatawag na ulit ‘yung kapatid ko sa chapel para kumuha ng kwarto, para naman kay Mama Guy,” pagbabahagi ni Janine.

“It’s been difficult and even unbelievable, but all throughout, you have helped us so much with your support and love. Thank you so much for your thoughts and prayers, dropped by or had us and our lolas in your mind.”

She is now back to work knowing and being comforted with the fact that many people will always remember their grandmothers.

“Initially, I blocked off the week to travel but decided to just spend it at home. Sabi ko mag-ayos nalang ako ng bahay at mag-aral ng script. Buti na lang hindi na ako umalis. Mamita passed away on my first free day and we buried Mamay Guy on my last. Driving to my location today. I think of my two new angels and how they always powered through. I think of how I can continuosly make them proud. It gives me comfort to know there are many of us who will always have them in our hearts. Thank you,” pasasalamat ng girlfriend ni Jericho Rosales.

Last Wednesday ay inanunsiyo ni PBBM na pararangalan niya ng

Presidential Medal of Merit to Aunor, Corrales, screen veteran Gloria Romero, at Chef Margarita Fores sa Malacañang sa May 4.

RACHEL PATULOY NA KAKANTA AT SASAYAW BILANG ALAALA NG AMA

MAY madamdaming post ng pamamaalam ang singer na si Rachel Alejandro para sa amang pumanaw, ang OPM icon singer na si si Hajji Alejandro.

Ani ng singer, “He never got old.”

“What happens when the brightest star in a galaxy dies? My dad was our sun and we were the planets, orbiting around him, basking in his warmth and light. As a kids, we tagged along to all his avtivities, be it shows, rehearsals, basketball games — it didn’t matter what it was. We would fall asleep at Dolphy’s house if he was there for an all-night poker game. There was nowhere else we would rather be than by his side because every minute in his presence was fun.”

Kahit na raw ng may mga edad na sila at may sarili ng pamilya ay lagi pa rin nilang kasama ang ama.

‘I hung on to his ebeey word about politics, financial investments or the latest joke he.planned on including in his next.concert with the Hitmakkers. He love to make people laugh as much as he.loved to sing and dance.

“My dad was a happy, optimistic man who valued having a good comfortable life. But more importantly, he prioritized providing for his partner, mother and children.”

Mahaba pa ang context na pinost ni Rachel sa kanyang Instagram at ang huli niyang sinabi.

“I will now just be singing and dancing with my dad in my dreams.”
