HUGOT kung hugot ang latest Instagram post ni Mariel Rodriguez tungkol sa appreciation dinner nina Pangulong Rodrigo Duterte at parnter nitong Honeylet Avanceña para sa kanilang celebrity friends and supporters.
Dahil sa IG message ni Mariel na may kinalaman din sa politika ay hindi napigilan ni Kris Aquino ang mag-comment na sinagot din agad ng misis ni Robin Padilla.
Ayon kay Mariel, hinding-hindi niya malilimutan ang nasabing event na ginanap sa Rizal Hall ng Malacañang Palace nitong nakaraang Martes kung saan napakaraming artistang dumalo kabilang na nga ang asawa niyang si Binoe, John Lloyd Cruz, Aiko Melendez, Alex Gonzaga, Liza Dino, Ice Seguerra, Vhong Navarro, Richard Gomez, Toni Gonzaga, Gretchen Ho, Ai Ai delas Alas at marami pang iba.
Narito ang kumpletong mensahe ni Mariel sa kanyang Instagram, “A memorable evening for me courtesy of President Rodrigo Roa Duterte and First Lady Honeylet.
“PRRD is not the first President that I campaigned for but he is the first President to invite me to the palace.
“The room was filled with celebrities who supported him both silently and openly. When the President arrived he sat down and immediately said ‘mag tatlong taon na akong presidente ngayon lang ako makapagpasalamat sa inyo.’
“Madam Honeylet flew in from Davao just to be at the thanksgiving dinner and she flies back to Davao the next day, during her introduction speech she mentioned that they are not really fond of hosting parties… so i knew it was a special night!”
“On the menu was salad, mushroom soup, fillet mignon and strawberry cheesecake. The menu was a special request made by the President himself ‘sabi ko ibahin naman ang pagkain. Kasi ang pagkain talaga dito isang ulam, kanin at sabaw.
“Sabi ko gawin espesyal.’ My favorite moment of the evening that made me admire our President even more… the fillet mignon was wrapped in bacon so in advanced the kitchen staff prepared fish for Robin and I.
“When our fish arrived Senatorial candidate Freddie Aguilar and his wife, Jovie, wanted fish as well because they are muslims too. Robin being the gentleman that he is gave his fish to Jovie so she could eat ahead. The whole table was prompted to eat all except for Robin, Ka Freddie and PRRD.
“He said ‘sige kumain na kayo hintayin ko si Robin’ and he really waited for Robin’s food to arrive.
“I know maliit na bagay but di ba it’s the little things that matter. Super nakakatuwa at nakaka touched talaga. Yung loyalty ni Robin kay President ay hindi sayang because it is reciprocated with kindness.”
Sa comments section ng IG ni Mariel, nag-comment si Kris. Nahihiya raw siya kay Mariel dahil nasa posisyon pa ang kanyang kapatid na si former President Noynoy Aquino ay hindi man lang siya naimbitahan sa Malacañang.
“Hi Ma… it’s those human gestures of saying THANK YOU that matter…
“Nahiya ako that hindi ka na invite for a proper thank you celebration (i am keeping my fingers crossed at some point you did receive flowers?)
“On a side note- may funny kwento ako- there was a lunch for an ASEAN head of state- and invitation said business attire. Napagalitan ako because i think i wore a skin baring outfit- nasabihan ako na, didn’t you read na business attire?
“I said yes, in our industry ito ang business attire. so don’t sweat it- i broke that sleeveless rule countless times- nag backless, nag halter, nag plunging.”
Ito naman ang reply sa kanya ni Mariel, “@krisaquino hi ate!!! No I didn’t receive flowers maybe because i was married na hehehe but my friendship with you is more than enough hehehe bawal pala skin baring.”
Hirit naman ni Kris, “@marieltpadilla I apologize na kinulang sa personal touch.”
Sagot naman ng asawa ni Binoe, “@krisaquino no need to apologize ate i was not expecting anything personal in exchange i willingly did it from my heart.”
