When President Noynoy Aquino was campaigning then para mapasakamay niya ang presidency ay maraming artista ang ginamit ng kampo niya sa pangangampanya.
Ang mga tulad nina Dingdong Dantes, Marian Rivera, Ai Ai delas Alas, Boy Abunda, Ogie Alcasid, Regine Velasquez, Sharon Cuneta, Anne Curtis, Bianca Gonzales, Mariel Rodriguez, Erik Santos, Bea Alonzo ay umapir pa sa kanyang TV ad noong kasagsagan ng kampanya.
So, what are we driving at? That he is kind of an INGRATE? Why? Noong kailangan niya ng suporta ng mga celebrities para magkaroon siya ng leverage sa kampanya dahil bigatin ang kanyang mga kalaban ay maraming artista ang sumuporta sa kanya, gratis lahat.
And what did he do in return? Ayun, he turned his back on one celebrity nang kailanganin ang kanyang pirma. By now, you are probably muttering one name – Nora Aunor.
Yes, we’re referring to Nora Aunor whose name was dropped in the roster of this year’s National Artist list. Is it because Nora did not campaign for Noynoy when he run for the presidency?
They say it all boils down to morality, that Nora was booted out of the list because of some moral issues. Fine! But the National Artist award is not guarded by morality issue. Walang morality clause sa pagpili ng Pambansang Alagad ng Sining. Isn’t that IDIOTIC?
