Hosting Miss Universe Philippines 2026 has been one of the greatest milestones of my career and my life.
And while I understand that there will be different opinions and some resistance to it, I did not expect the vile & alarming amount of transphobia, hate and even death threats thrown at me. Moreso, the hate and harassment being thrown to my sister, Angel.
This is not what I stand for.
This NEEDS TO STOP.
Sa lahat ng trabaho at success na pinaghirapan natin, dala dala ko ang pag asa na iaangat nito ang pagtanggap sa LGBTQIA+. While I was admittedly hurt by her statements, I do not condone any hurtful and hateful words thrown at her because of it. Huwag itong gamiting excuse para manira ng kapwa. It just sets us back and everything we’ve worked so hard for just loses its meaning.
Everyone is entitled to their opinions. What you are not entitled to is disrespect. While I may not be able to change everyone’s opinion, I would like to call on everyone who believes in me. I am truly grateful for all the outpour of love and support. I ask that you only spread love, grace and kindness to the people around you.
Angel and I were able to resolve things privately. Let’s give her space and understanding.
Maraming salamat sa pag-unawa.
“Pantropiko” the song that opened doors for BINI, turned them into a household name in the Philippines, and now… it’s echoing all the way to Coachella. from local stages to global ones. i’m just so proud. Literal na tumaas balahibo ko nung narinig ko yung intro 😭
Haven't listened to @domguyot16 in a while and checked out his recent releases... dang I missed listening to him. Ang healing talaga ng music niya for me.

tangina kung di ka pa talaga galit sa gobyerno natin siguro magreflect ka na kung may kaluluwa ka pa kasi—putangina ano 'to? bakit kailangan umabot sa ganito? bakit ito na ang realidad natin?
