Marcoleta takes exception to joke: Napaka walang hiya

Sen. Rodante Marcoleta on Thursday expressed his ire during a committee hearing over a joke regarding his face, saying the person who delivered the line was without shame. According to Mav Gonzales' report on '24 Oras,' Marcoleta stated that the quip was delivered during a concert. 'Pati po ako ay kanyang idinawit. Bigla ba naman niyang sinabi, 'Tignan n'yo yung mukha ni Marcoleta kung matatawa kayo',' Marcoleta said. 'Napaka walang hiya n'ung tao na 'yon. Ayaw ko na lang siyang patusin,' he added. Marcoleta didn't name the person, but a video of comedian Vice Ganda joking about the senator had gone viral. Vice Ganda also had a joke which appeared to be about former President Rodrigo Duterte. In the skit, Vice Ganda referred to a 'jet ski holiday' which includes a trip to The Hague for the DDS. In a resolution, the Devao City Council condemned Vice Ganda's joke. "Former President Duterte is not merely a national leader, he is a son of Davao. For decades, he devoted his life to public service, transforming our city into a model of peace, discipline, and progress, and later serving as the 16th President of the Republic of the Philippines," the resolution read. –NB, GMA Integrated News

Kapuso stars, execs grace Shaira Diaz and EA Guzman's wedding

Shaira Diaz and EA Guzman's wedding was nothing short of a star-studded celebration. According to Nelson Canlas' report on '24 Oras' Thursday, the couple's special day was witnessed by their closest friends from inside and outside showbiz. Among those part of the entourage were Senator Jinggoy Estrada, Kapuso Comedian Genius Michael V., Officer-in-Charge for Entertainment Group and Vice President for Drama Cheryl Ching-Sy, GMA Public Affairs Senior Vice President and GMA Pictures Executive Vice President Nessa Valdellon, and GMA Integrated News anchor Vicky Morales. 'Konti na lang 'yung tip na ibibigay ko, parang commitment na lang at tsaka unahin ang kasal bago showbiz,' Bitoy said. EA's 'Bubble Gang' co-stars, Cheska Fausto, Kokoy De Santos, Matt Lozano, Chariz Solomon, and Paolo Contis, were also in attendance. 'Mahal na mahal namin 'yang si EA. I'm very happy for Shaira also,' Paolo said. 'I-enjoy niyo lang 'yung time niyo na kayong dalawa pa lang, wala pang kids. Kasi natutuwa lang ako na like mapagdaanan nila step by step,' Chariz said. Shaira's 'Unang Hirit' co-hosts were also present on her wedding day. 'Na-in love sila sa isa't-isa, hindi nila kinalimutan 'yung kanilang mga magulang, 'yung pagmamahal nila sa kanilang magulang. So I wish them happiness and more happiness, more love, and good luck on your wedding night,' Susan Enriquez said. EA told Shaira after exchanging I do's, "'Yung kanina, nung inaantay kita sa pinto, sabi ko lang talaga, 'Oh, my God. Oh, my God.' 'Yun lang.' 'Ako, I'm very happy. We're so blessed kasi napakaganda ng weather ngayon. Yesterday sobrang umuulan, and we prayed for this. Ang daming nagdasal para sa araw na 'to, so thank you. Masaya kami na ang dami ring nagpunta at nag-celebrate kasama kami, so we're very grateful,' Shaira said. Shaira and EA have been engaged since 2021, but only publicized it in 2024. Shaira previously shared that she wanted to marry EA after completing her college degree, a goal she achieved in August that year. The couple had vowed to remain celibate until marriage, with EA admitting that it was difficult at first. They marked their 12th anniversary in February, their last as boyfriend and girlfriend. —Carby Rose Basina/CDC, GMA Integrated News
