Sa totoo lang, di ko alam san ako mag-uumpisa. Pero sige lang. Kahit saan. Basta ang alam ko, may tanong ako. Ano'ng ginawa ni Charice? Sumali sya sa mga singing contests. Nanalo, natalo, nag-runner-up. Nilagay video nya sa YouTube tapos nag-Korea, nag-Ellen, nag-Oprah. Kumanta sya kasama ni David Foster. Nagpunta sa iba't-ibang bansa para kumanta. Nag-Glee din sya. Nagkaron ng international albums. May ipapalabas din na Hollywood film na Here Comes the Boom. Ngayon may solo concert tour sya sa Asia .
Ano pa'ng ginawa ni Charice? Heto ang usap-usapan ngayon. Hindi yung Infinity concert nya sa Araneta kundi yung bago nyang hair at tattoo! Ang siste, yung short hair nya at tattoo e pinagpyestahan ng mga haters at crababayan nya. Naku, lesbian at adik na daw si Charice! Ows, talaga?
Teka, teka...di ba kelan lang ang issue e yung pinoto-shop daw nyang picture sa cover ng Preview Mag? Tinanggal daw yung pimple nya. Ginawa din yan sa picture ko noon para sa college annual namin. Ano, looks na naman ba ang topic ngayon? Mahaba ang hair, issue. Maikli ang hair, issue. Sabi nga ni Charice noon, “Kelan ba naman ako naging maganda sa mga haters?” At yung tattoo, ang dami dyang celebrities at ordinaryong tao na may tattoo. Sa panahon ngayon, di porke’t may tattoo ka, ex-con o adik ka na. Dahil lang sa hair at tattoo ganun na? Di pa sila siguro nakakapanood ng reality show na Miami Ink.
So, ano'ng ginawa ni Charice? Sinabi nya yung style at image nya ngayon, yun ang Charice. At dun sa reporter na nagtanong tungkol sa sexuality nya, sabi nya, "Why would you ask me that question? I think that's a very inappropriate question." Aray! Napaka-showbiz kasi kung magtanong. Onli in da Pilipins.
And speaking of da Pilipins, kelan lang e maraming pinoy ang nag-react sa pagkakabanggit ni David Letterman ng "Philippines Philippines
Naisip ko lang…kapag nalalait ang image ng Pinas sa ibang bansa, ang bilis ng mga reaction. Pero bakit kung makapanlait ang mga crababayan kay Charice, walang humpay? Ipinangangalandakan ang kababawan at kabalastugan. Ang sama nito, yung iba galing pa sa reporters (kuno) at maririnig mo sa TV o radyo o kaya nakasulat sa mga broadsheets na para namang tabloid. Hindi magandang gawin sa kahit na sinong tao--celebrity man o hindi--ang mga di-kaigaigayang ginagawa nila kay Charice. Parang di nila nare-realize na reflection ito ng buong image ng Pinoy. Nagtataka nga ang mga taga ibang bansa e. Di nila maintindihan kung bakit karamihan ng mga negative about Charice ay galing sa mga Pinoy. Kung minsan, sobra na at nakakahiya at nakakasuya.
Ooops...opinyon ko yan. I have the right to speak. This is a free country. It's freedom of speech in a democratic country. O, di ba? Para lang yang mamang nagtatago sa saya ng kanyang asawa.
Calling P-Noy...ano'ng dapat gawin? Naalala ko yung sinabi mo sa SONA last year. Sabi mo, dapat itigil na ang utak-alimango. Utak-talangka. Pano? San dapat magsimula? Tapos may bill pang anti-cyber bullying. Pano mapupuksa ito? Very challenging yan. Sabi ng iba, yan ay nasa mga parents. Ang iba naman nahahawa daw sa mga barkada. Peer pressure baga. E ang media, nakakaapekto ba? Syempre naman. E ang school? Aba
Mabalik tayo kay Charice. Ano nga ba'ng ginawa ni Charice at hate sya ng iba? Mayabang daw e. Di ba pwedeng confident lang? Pa-slang-slang pa kasi e. Di ba pwedeng nag-improve lang sya sa English? Bakit di kasi mag-Tagalog pag nasa Pinas? Di ba sya pwedeng mag-English tulad ng ibang artists na nakikita natin sa TV? Ang drama nya kasi e. Di ba pwedeng nagpapakatotoo lang sya? Ang panget nya kasi e. Di ba pwedeng na-influence ka lang ng media kung ano ang maganda?
Kababayan, ano'ng ginawa para sa iyo ni Charice? Crababayan, ano'ng ginawa sa iyo ni Charice? Sa nagbabasa nito, alin ka? Isa ka bang kababayan o isa kang crababayan?
hi! i like your blog..tama ka talaga..lagi nlng pinupuna mga kilos ni charice..kahit kailan talaga hindi siya naging mabuting tao sa mga crababayan nya... mahiya nmn sila, akala nila perfect sila kung makapanlait wagas talaga.
ReplyDeleteLove ur work! Pls keep it up! Mwah!
ReplyDeletecharice fans grows in number everyday.one day all will realize how talented and all things positive this girl really is.just wait and see. in the meantime, let all chasters spread the love.
ReplyDeletedi ko nga alm kung bakit hate nila c charice. wala namang ginagawa ung tao kundi ayusin ang craft na pinili nya. bakit kaya d tau maging masaya sa success ng kapwa natin? She brings too much pride to our country and yet lait-laitin pa ung tao. hayzzzz... these people are so disgusting!
ReplyDeletenakaka tawa talaga mga tao sa pilipinas... im sure di naman lahat... tulad na lang ki jessica sanchez, she is very talented mahal na mahal na ng mga crababayans dyan. i like her too, she is talented and i hope she wins pero bakit nila kinukumpara agad ki charice? kailangan ba talaga iyon?.. saka si jessica sanchez ay half filipino and half mexican, taga usa sya at baka nga di nya alam mga issues dito pero dahil lang sa galit nila ki charice, mas pinipili nila.. sino ang hindi matatawa... go figure lol
ReplyDeleteyes,ur right,coz the crabs trying to protray that they don't like charice so they instead showed their likes on j.sanchez as they compared,.j.s. is an american born tho pinay mom and mexican dad-thats uncomparable. charice pure pinoy blood living in pinas and live poor without anyone helping her and single mom raising her and lil bro..who tried hard to support the family through joining amateur singing contests around towns just to get some money for their daily needs..joined in that abs-cbn singing contest and lost due to text voting coz her family and friends dont have money to buy loads to do text vote for her-that counts too..her great voice was not appreciated and recognized by the producers of abs-cbn but the other countries did notice that great voice from starking king korea,paul o'grady in london tv, in sweden,netherlands,italy,in singapore, on ellen degeneres tv show and finally a huge break came in when Oprah noticed her performance on starking tv show-korea,and not even her being a contestant on Little Big Star., then from Oprah-charice was in the Obama pre-inaugural balls-and sang there, dueted with celine dion-live in madison square garden, andre bocelli in italy,dueted with other singers abroad-so these crabs so jealous,envious of the accomplishments of charice and able to buy cars and a little mansion, can u imagine that? who won't get crabby feelings? in just 1-2 years lots of accomplishments, if shes just in pinas and guesting once in awhile in asap she won't be able to buy a car, thats why lots of crabby feelings out there to pull her down. when she was down before this-nobody was crabbing her,coz shes down already,unless they want to bury her. its all about enviousness,jealousy that made these crabs hate charice,maybe charice stepping on their idol's status-or fame, thats the name of the game. filipino-crabs can really upsets u the way they do crabbing-they are insane. good charice was brought up strong by mommyraqz. nobody in the phils had helped her to be in this position, they only trying to get her to their shows coz shes already up there. coz she's not pretty or appealing to the producers or directors they dont showcase her in their program or maybe coz she has different manager that has no direct contact with the abs-cbn network-so no pull or no lakas,eh palakasan system lang naman sa pinas-otherwise wala ka dyan. just check those artists/celebs who are their managers? its the people working within the abs-cbn network, and charice manager is not working in that network to have a pull system. good oprah noticed charice talents-and it all happened coz of Oprah-charice came to fame.
Deletewell anitako i guess all we can do is accept the fact na ang haters will always hate... no one can stop them from being foul-mouthed just to be able to convey something cruel.
Deleteit is so sad that she gets this kind of flack from her own countrymen...
goes to tell you what kind of society the philippines have produced...
very sad indeed
Charice is charice no matter what...dapat lng na tanggapin at pahalagahan natin sya dhil sya nagbibigay ng karangalan sa ating bansa,dapat rin na mahalin tulad ng pagmamahal ng ibang lahi sa kanya.So sad mga kapwa pilipinp pa ang humihila sa kanya pababa kaylan pa tayo matututo...Totoo na ang puno na hitik sa bunga ay pinupukol pero napakabata pa niya para dumanas sya ng ganitong grabeng discriminasyon, mga kapatid, tao sya at nasasaktan, higit sa lahat isa siyang Babae.
ReplyDeleteI am a solid kababayan, Charice made me realize na you can do anything if you just put your whole heart into it :D and isa sya sa dahilan kung bakit proud na proud ako na maging pinoy. ^__^ Nakakairita nga lang pag nakakabasa ako ng mga comments mula sa crabs katulad na lang sa twitter at facebook na kala mo e personal nilang kilala yung tao :(
ReplyDeletenaawa ako kay charice kasi una bata pa siya at tunay namang napaka-harsh ng mga words na binabato sa kanya.di ko din talaga maintindihan bakit ganun sila kasama :(..bilib ako kay charice kasi she's really tough and nakatulong din na malakas sense of humor niya.
ReplyDeleteHi! i like ur article, im not Charice fan but i like her. Charice is charice,Jessica is jessica, pls dont compare the two for they are both filipinos, malayo na ang narating ni Charice at nakabigay na ng maraming karangalan sa bansa at dhil sa kanya nakilala ang Pilipinas international,so let us be happy..im a simple housewife who's husband is an OFW, and my hubby feels proud and great for Charice, he said this girl is so kind and very down to earth person.
ReplyDeleteWhat happen to cyber bullying bill?? Senate and Congress is such a lameduck!! If Manny Pacquiao wins a match there's always a courtesy call from Malacanang,... How about Charice giving also honor to the Pinoys, NO COURTESY CALL!! P-NOY, Senate and Congress please think??
ReplyDeleteBINGO. SO LOVE YOUR BLOG. THANK YOU! AND I'm not only a kababayan but a proud chaster.
ReplyDeleteBeckyM(beccha05)
Basta ako naniniwala sa sinabi ni Ms. Lea Salonga: "If you are as insanely talented as Charice, you cannot be ignored." My high respect for Ms. Lea. We love you Charice. Just go on Charice at lalamunin nila ulit lahat ng mga sinabi nila against you. Proud to be a Chaster...
ReplyDeletesa tingin ko ay hindi galit kundi inggit ang meron sila. kac first time lang kac nangyari sa pinas na magkaroon ng isang international singer. parang napako na sila sa idea na mga pinoy ay hanggang pang local lang. kaso dumating si Charice at nagawa niya makapasok sa Hollywood, sa international music scene. naging MABIGAT lang para sa mga pinoy ang naging dating ni Charice. nabibigla lang sila. pero for sure ito. masasanay din sila. as everyday passes by, Chasters grow in big numbers. Love you Charice....
ReplyDeleteHi, im a filipino and a Bieber fan but i like Charice too and i met her in person,what i like her most is that she is so humble and very down to earth, she's funny and nice too.
ReplyDeleteGood work, you are truly a Filipino. We will have a great country if the rest of the Filipinos will be as reflective as you.Mabuhay ka, mabuhay si Charice!!!
ReplyDeletehi, im DavidArchie's fan and im filipino but i like Charice, i already met her in person, she is so humble and kind, funny and a very nice girl too.i dont understand why our kababayan or crababayan keeps on bashing and insult her inspite of the pride and honor she have given to our country, You crababayans have no right to judge her for you dont her in person, pls respect her.
ReplyDeleteThis is great, twestj! The best thing is that Charice is so strong, thanks to her faith, her family and Chasters, that haters won't be able to put her down. They'll keep on talking and hating while Charice will continue working her way to the top with love in her heart.
ReplyDeleteAmazing how our girl constantly expresses her love for her country and her fellowmen and always acknowledges them with each success she gains - hers is an example of real patriotism.
Sabi nga, drown evil with an abundance of good - this is what Cha's doing :)
My mom and I plus two other chasters went to manila the other day to watch Charice Infinity concert tour in manila. We traveled 6 hours by land (because we were all from baguio).. So we arrived @ araneta coliseum so early but there was already a long line. At first I noticed that there were not plenty of people inside the coliseum but minutes before the concert started I was shocked because the Coliseum was nearly full! I loved charice way back since LBS started!. So when I got the chance to finally see charice I noticed she was soooo cute even with the short blond hair and "rockish" outfit. I was wondering how come people would always say "malaki ang panga" , "baduy", "mayabang" and the like but if you see her live in concert you will have to change your point of view regarding her. She is uber cute, she has nice body, cute rocker outfits which are obviously expensive (leather jacket and knee high boots). Her voice was so powerful and clear that I thought i was listening to her CD. Now i love charice even more! hindi xa mayabang. sadyang mataas lang ang confidence level nya. No matter what "CRABABAYANS" will say against her, Charice's career will continue to flourish! So to all chasters out there (who were all accomodating when i got the chance to meet all of them) lets all continue supporting charice! and to Charice, we love you no matter what!
ReplyDeletelike the article...oo nga naman bakit kaya?? dami kasi naiinggit sa kanya ang layo na kasi narating nya.CHARICE im so proud of you.. don't mind the haters..my family and relatives here in davao love you so much... :-)
ReplyDelete.....nice post...i feel bad for charice......she had been trying her very best to prove something and we all know that shes already there and yet sad to say...kapwa pinoy ang sumisira sa kanya....at ang mga taong ito ay syang mga wala nmn napapatunayan pa kahit sa mga sarili nila....i just hope that charice would be more stronger....natatakot ako na pano kung isang araw bumigay na si charice...with all of the pain na nakuha nia simula pag kabata hanggang ngayon...hindi ko n alam kung ano pa ang pedeng humigit sa salitang TAPANG....for you charice i know that pagod kn sa mga araw araw na naririrnig..nababasa at napapanood mo...if only i could be your angle...i would take you away...away from them na walang alam kundi husgahan at saktan ka just to stop the pain and hurt na binibigay nila syo...u dont deserve all of this....iv been a silent chaster.....i may not be there with all of your performnaces...not wit any gathering of ur group....but im always here watching over you.....
ReplyDeleteI like your blog.It makes sense a lot.
ReplyDeleteLet us just be happy and proud for Charice. Kung ano man ang marating niya, it will be reflective of our nation's success or failure in the global entertainment scene. Siya lang ang TUNAY NA LOCAL AT DUGONG PINAY na nagtagumpay internationally. I like JS too but the sad thing is, hindi napansin ng mga Pinoy ang kakayahan nya (even if she already auditioned on other talent searches) not until she was discovered in American Idol. My point is: some Pinoys are so hungry to claim a HALF PINOY'S success as their own KAPAG NAPANSIN NA internationally. Yet, we have Charice who's solo carrying the Philippine flag pero hinihila ng mga crabs siya pababa. I'm satisfied with the way Charice is handling d Philippine media right now. I don't mind if for them it would sound arrogant,...the important thing is she's just being straight-forward and candid with her answers. After all, there are no fixed and absolute rules in the manner of answering questions. Vice Ganda, Kris Aquino, Rosanna Roces or even Melai Cantiveros have their own way of answering questions posed by the so-called journalists. To the media and press, let's just respect and accept the fact that Charice is no longer the little girl na inapi-api, ininsulto at binato ng mga panlalait at intriga. What Charice right now is also d result of what her detractors had done to her. What goes around comes around...oh kahit infinity pa ang form niyan, babalik parin ang kabutihan at kasamaan na ginawa natin sa kapwa.
Thumbs up for a well written opinion. I think those people who are bashing her are losers simply because they are giving Charice a publicity. Remember, in showbiz good or bad write ups are still considered publicity. Of course, sometimes it can really be below the belt but Charice can't please everyone and I guess these haters comprise only a small fraction considering that she has been steadily getting more fans each day. We can all learn even from haters and move on like what Charice does. She is enjoying the fruits of her success and we are all witness to that. From Infinity and beyond.....we will love Charice.
ReplyDeletesuper like ur article...im a chaster till infinityy and i will love Charice eternally no matter who she is or what she have become right now.shes an imperfect human being like all of us.but its the God-given talent and pleasing personality that i really like and loved about her.labyo Cha!labyo chasters all over d world!
ReplyDeleteooooh! Love the over all composition; the flow, the structure and of course the topic. Crab mentality is everywhere, be it in the office, in schools, etc. Keep it up! Nice blog.
ReplyDeleteNice article and so true sometimes its very frustating why this certain people likes to bring others down..Why dont they put themselves in Charice's shoe and see how will they cope up?Just so proud of Charice that she's doing very well despite the facts that alot of people wishes her downfall but what they didnt know is that they're making her even stronger....Im one of those people who will support u Charice no matter what so hang in there and youre doing a good job ignoring the crabs!!!!!Labyo
ReplyDeleteMay nag tweet galit daw siya kay Charice dahil bakit siya daw ang naging international sensation at hindi yung ibang artist sa Pilipinas na marahil araw araw na napapanuod sa TV. Sabi nila mayabang daw siya. Hindi yun kayabangan kundi may confidence kasi sa sarili dahil alam niyang may talent siya sa pag kanta.Kaya yun ang naging tiket niya para makilala. Yun ang pinagkaiba ni Charice hindi siya nag papa cute lang at nakikipagsabayan sa pagandahan.Siya ay inspirasyon ng mga nangangarap na magtagumpay... sa kabilang banda siya ay tinik sa mga walang pangarap sa buhay kaya di sila umaasenso palagay ko hindi rin sila masaya sa buhay. Pilit man hinihila pababa ng crababayan si Charice lalo naman siyang pinagpapala ng Diyos... Keep up the good work Charice mas madami ang nagmamahal sa iyo.
ReplyDeletehi but hindi namn natin din masisisi ung mga haters nya cguro may nakita cla ky charice na hindi nya nla nagus2han o sa tingin nila na discourage cla sa new look ni charice thats why gnun nlang ang pagka hate nya.............cguro lng para sakin mgkakaron paxa ng maraming fans kung pinapakita nya talaga na mahal nya kababayan nya at tumutulong din xasa mga pobre katulad lmang noong binaha ang kabisayaan o di kaya mg aalay xa ng mga kanta para malimutan ang karumal dumal na sinapit ng mga tao.IM SURE UNG MGA HATERS AY MAWAWALA O PGKA HATE NILA KY CHARICE NA MAPAPALITAN NG PAGIGING CHASTERS,,,,,so go go
ReplyDeleteIt so simple to says na some of the crabster ay nai-starstruck tlaga kay Charice, at di nila ma-carry na a simple as Charice would become International singing sensation at in good terms pa sa mga mabibigat na tao sa tate. Di nila kinaya ang mga na-achieve ni Charice, kasi ang akala ng iba she cannot make it but she did it and reached her dreams in just a short span of time. Tapos, mabait pa si Charice, very humble, at walang star attitude na tinatawag ng iba. Kaya di sila makapaniwala na si Charice ay International singing sensation na walang ere sa katawan.
ReplyDeleteKaya kahit ano man sabihin ng mga crabsters I pitied on them kasi mababaw lang ang kanilang kaligayahan at pananaw sa buhay.
Sapul!
ReplyDeleteYou know you are a hater when you focus on things that she's not rather than on the great things that she can do.
I've been there. I was once a crabster who mocked Charice. From time to time, I would make fun of her together with my friends. "baduy, di maganda, etc"..basta may malait lang. Natatawa na kami diyan. Ang babaw no? I'm sure ganito rin ang trip ng karamihan sa mga crabs diyan.
You know the feeling of making fun of someone just like in highschool? It feels damn good right? What more if your friends do the same? It feels great to be accepted and to be a part of something. If you notice, it's the same scenario with these crabs. Everyone's doing it so I'll do it too! Everyone says it so maybe I should say it too, right?
No.
I personally know some of these haters in real life. Ito lang napansin ko pagnagbibigay sila ng "opinion" nila: Aminin man nila o hindi, makikita mo yan sa hitsura nila, maririnig mo yan sa boses nila, mararamdaman mo yan habang binabanggit nila ang bawat panlalait nila kay Charice. Ano yon? Inggit.
Maybe we still have this belief that you were born into your social class. I don't know. They have a hard time believing that this simple and once poor girl from Laguna would now be doing albums and movies in Hollywood. What more, she's not your typical prom dress wearing sosyal mestiza that people seem to idolize in the Philippines. That's so hard to believe right?
I don't know how exactly it happened but I became a fan. She has challenged the way I perceive things and has since then inspired me to become a better person. For all the great things she's accomplished so far for herself and for the country, I say that she deserves respect. Yun lang. Wag na kayong makisabay at magisip isip naman kayo. Ganyan lang kasimple.
Bingo sa lahat nang sinabi mo! Hindi na lang manahimik kung
ReplyDeletewalang masabi ng matino! Eto, para wala gulo. Kung mas maganda
kayo kay Charice [di yung gandang ok lang ha? yung mga Angelina Jolie baga.] Sige lang dakdak lang,Kasi may right
ka..Pero kung ang fez mo eh?..EWAN KO NA LANG?
tahimik na lang kayo mga Peeps... KASI WALA KAYONG KARAPATAN!
