The Not So Generous Mom

No matter how discreet their actions are, this mother and daughter team never fails to attract attention.

Mother Dear MD is a constant presence in the affairs of her Dear Daughter DD, especially in the major events of DD's career. It has come to a point that whenever DD is around, it is MD who people ask for first. More than DD, it is MD who is the major decision-maker in the family.

If at all DD makes her personal decision known, it is still subject for MD's approval – especially when it concerns anything financial.

The big calamity that the country had recently had most Filipinos here and abroad, celebrities or not, donated and gave so very generously to the calamity victims. Big celebrities, for whatever reasons, whether for publicity or not, gave their utmost best to help in every way they can. To this day, huge cash donations from big stars continue to overflow.

Whether it was peer pressure or otherwise, DD reportedly made a big cash donation for the typhoon Yolanda victims. Those within her circle were very happy with DD's gesture. But MD, who is not exactly known to be generous, raised hell upon learning this. She questioned DD and her handlers pointing out that there was no need for DD to donate that much since she already donated part of the proceeds of her concert to the same cause.

Thus, MD wanted to take back the huge donation justifying and believing that DD was already over-donating. To which she was told that taking back the donation was definitely out of the question, out of line. DD handlers know only too well where they were coming from, especially after knowing that a lesser star than DD gave millions bigger than what DD gave.
