    3. Sounds cold but that is Lea's subtle way of making yabang about her Dad's accomplishments. She did not immediately post anything about her dad's passing until a day and a half later. She posted only after that obituary came out. Kahit patay na yung dad, she managed to post irrelevant stuff sa Twitter nya. Nakuha pang magmarunong na naman about some Les Miz trivia. Buti pa si Gie Kinis, post agad on the day that her dad died.

  2. Hmmm, I guess I was expecting a warmer tribute from a daughter...but then again, I don't know their story. It seems that they were not close at all. Condolences to the bereaved family.

    1. THEY dont even talk

    2. Lea and her brother are illegitimate offsprings. Third family sila and the father never really reached out to them.

      Delete
    3. Even if they didn't talk, that post is cold. Kahit man lang sa pagkamatay walang respeto. Hindi niya mapalampas yung pagkakataon na manglapastangan. Kaya pala ganyan ang ugali niya mapagmalaki. False pride until the end. Very sad.

    4. They were family number 3. Dad was a chronic womanizer. Glad Leah and her brother made their own fortune so they would not need to beg dad for financial support.

    5. Anak sila sa labas from what i recall

    6. I don't think there was a strong father-daughter relationship between them to begin with. It was her mom who single-handedly raised Lea and Gerard.

    7. 436. waw ah. you dont know the real story. tapos pag masyado namang heart warming sabihin naman plastik. mga tao talaga eh. kahit tatay pa nya yun kung di naman naging tatay sayo mahirap magpakasweet kahit sa msg.

    8. 4:36 anong mapanglapastangan? San part dun sa message. It was cold, yes. But she did not say anthing bad nman about the father.

    9. Yun din ang alam ko - broken family sila. Wala nga tatay niya sa kasal niya eh.

    4. True. Sad naman pala ng story nya. Her success was rooted from painful past.

    5. That's her driving force. It's always up to the person how they will react to the situation. In Lea's case, she is doing very well. I'm proud of her :)

    6. Well she turned that chip into something outstanding. She is now independently wealthy and very successful in her field.

    7. true that's why there's always the need to assert that she's the best

    8. 3:49 oy Lea wag kang defensive

      Delete
    9. @3:49 read up psychoanalytic psychology to get the point. I'm a psych major and I have to say past experiences (especially in childhood) has a lot to contribute in your present self.

      Delete
    10. And to add, it is NOT a pseudoscience or sabi mo nga pseudo-psychology. Psychoanalytic theory by Sigmund Freud is widely accepted, in case you are not informed.

    11. Sad but true and now that I know where she's coming from :(

  12. Hindi ka na lang sana nagsalita bilang respeto sa tatay mong sumakabilang buhay na. Hindi nakakatuwa pagiging prangka mo sa ganyang sitwasyon.

    1. Uhm wala naman masama to say na she doesn't know of half of what he did. Especially kung 2nd family sila and he wasn't around that much.

    2. Well malaki atraso ng tatay niya sa kanila so there.

    3. Kung ang isang tao ay walang personal na relasyon sa isang pamilya, kamag anak o kung sinupaman, paano ka magbibigay pugay at magpralala na akala mo ay sobrang close kayo? may dahilan si Lea kaya ganyan ang post niya at yan ay hindi natin alam.

      Delete
    4. She's just being honest. My husband's dad left when he was 6. His dad wasn't there growing up. When his dad died, he wasn't at all affected.

      Delete
    5. Kung masama ang loob mo sa isang tao e pupurihin mo ba dahil lng yun ang innexpect sayo ng tao? Para masabi na marespeto ka? Hindi p b respeto ang ginawa nya na hindi sya nagsalita ng hindi magaganda tungkol sa tatay nya khit hindi magnda ang kung anuman punagdaanan nila?

      Delete
  13. Di naman legitimate na wife yung mommy ni Lea di ba? kaya medyo di sila gaano ka close ng Dad niya kasi nga she didn't grow up with her dad.

    ReplyDelete
  14. Rest in peace would have suffice. He got indicted at the end of his career, but at the end of the day, regardless of his failures he was still your father. So disrespectful. Arrogance definitely becomes her.

    1. Do you really think na pag ang nilagay nya e Rest in peace na wala ng magcocomment? Ganun pa din. Sasabihin p din ng mga commenters e bakit yun lng, parang hindi nya tatay, etc. Nasanay kasi tayo na pag may namatay e puro papuri ang sinasabi. At kung hindi nman ganun kabuti e yung mangilan ngilan na good traits. But it Leah's case, maybe wala syang masabing mabuti dahil wala nga syang alam or maalala. So kesa mag imbento at wala nman talagang masabii e d ok na yung message nya.

    2. 11:25 pm sure ka sa pinagsasabi mo? All it needed was rest in peace with a big period!

  26. Her Dad is so proud of Lea even before Ms Saigon. Got the privelege to meet him and visit his office in Philseco when I briefly worked there. He is a kind man and his office is full of photos of Lea and Gerard that he proudly shows those who visit his office.

    ReplyDelete
  27. Lea was really close to her dad. Tita Joy and her dad was never married but was together until Tita Joy opted to accompany Lea to London for Ms. Saigon. When Lea had her homecoming show in Manila, umuwi ang mag ina at ina butan nila Lea sa Bahay nila ang bagong babae ng tatay nya.

    Plates flying ang drama, nagkasakitan, murahan. Lea confronted her father and she was told by him not meddle into his personal affairs dahil anak lamang sya. Lea never spoke to him again. until noong kasal ni Gerald dahil inimbita ni Gerald lahat ng kamag anak at walang nagawa si Tita Joy at lea.

  28. Was this blow by blow account of Lea's personal life needed, 6:12 pm? There could have been a more tactful way of explaining their family set-up. Sad as reality is, they are not the only families in this situation in the Philippines. The man has passed away, a little respect please. Lea, Gerard and the mom are the only ones who should have the authority and choice to reveal such information. It is their life situation and need not be revealed except to those who would understand, not the whole nation. Even if you call her Tita Joy. Let us discern what is proper.

  29. Parang bagay yung song na "Hurt" by Christina Aguilera sa kanya. Sakto sa kanya at dad nya..

  30. Huwag masyado marunong. Si Lea mismo ang nag post nyan sa bigsis222 account niya 8-10 years ago sa multiply. Noong iilan palang ang afford mag internet. Si Lea very open yan. Nakikipag away pa nga sa google groups yan noong araw. Pa discern discern ka pnga nalalaman na akala mo isa kang edukada. Huwag ka mag fashionpulis. the mere fact andito ka, chismis hungry ka rin. ano ginagawa mo dito naglalaba? pak.

    2. 2:30 Would like to clarify that we know the family personally, that is why I took time to view the comments and it felt uncomfortable reading about their private life for everybody to see. Even if it was posted years ago the fact is that not everybody knew the details but now no choice. Discern means know the right time and place to divulge information. Also if we have the authority to speak about that. And just as I said, it is their family who can share the details, not other people. Lea was 10 years younger then, maybe things are different now. It is not our right to share info right now when the father has just passed away, I considered it insensitive. My view of things. And yes, I am educated.

      Delete
    3. Eh di ikaw na ang close. You know the family pala eh. Kung hindi ka nag comment, yung simpleng chismis ni 2:30 mananatili na chismis lang. By claiming na kilala mo ang pamilya ni Lea at pag mamalinis mo na dapat lets practice how to discern things dapat di ka na nag comment na ang innuedo ay totoo ang comment ni 2:30. You just made yourself look stupid for someone claiming na educada siya. Nuff said.

      Delete
    4. 9:54, nowhere did I say her information is true or not, that's the first I heard re those details mentioned, because we do not go around asking people such things, we wait for them to tell us voluntarily and after that we keep things confidential. I was commenting on the fact the there are things that are meant to be said in the proper way, at the proper time and place. Please read and respond, not react, there's a big difference, the way people should. My concept of educated is not only level of education attained, it is good manners, right conduct. It pertains to proper usage of words and being polite, not jumping to conclusions, reading incorrectly between the lines.

  31. Bago pa nagkaroon ng PisoNet at nagka access ang mga poorita sa internet, Si Manang Lea ay isa ng internet addict. Having said that kung fan ka ni Lea alam mo na siya mismo ang nag lalabas ng baho nya at nag journal ng kwento ng pamilya nila. Sa mga nagsasabi na masama ang tatay nya or magkagalit sila or dapat mahalin ni Lea ang tatay niya eh maghunos dili kayo. At saka bago kayo mag comment ng mga bash etc. spell nyo muna ng tama ang pangalan ni Lea. Lea yan as in L E A parang WEA records. Ginawa pa ninyong Leah as in Leah Navarro. Naku naman!

    ReplyDelete
  32. I answered your reaction when I read it, 2:30, just hasn't been posted yet. Nope, not "chismis hungry", just not comfortable with too much information coming from people other than family at a time when the father has just passed away, regardless of what he did or did not do. Discern means to know proper words, proper time, proper place. It is the kind thing to do so as not to add hurts to already unhappy memories. Wouldn't you want others to do that for you?
    I am not into social media, even though we have had internet for a long time, i really have not accessed that many accounts of celebrities, most of the time I read articles and research on topics that I teach. Just that we know the family so I read the comments. Not sure if you would like your family history discussed for all to see and speculated on. And yes, I am educated enough to know what will hurt people and try to avoid doing such to others. And I also do not use harsh words and accusations about people I know nothing about.I an just saying let us be kind and respectful. Lessen the negatives in the world, there's too much already.

    1. Maybe you can start by not putting too much effort into what you read here. This site is not for faint hearted, self righteous, not a chismis hungry person like yourself. Stop preaching. These information will not be known to public if La Lea has not divulge any of it. You commenting here with much gusto is already adding into the negativity. No to grandstanding. Just be happy that fashion pulis is here to entertain all of us.

  33. Never belittle Mommy Ligaya! Hindi niyo alam ang mga hirap na pinagdaanan niya. In fact, siya ang talagang nagpalaki kay Lea. She did her best for her daughter to become who she is now. Mahirap magpalaki ng anak at mas mahirap kapag nag-iisa ka lang!

    ReplyDelete
  34. A chismis hungry person would not promote being kind to people. The more harsh the judgment, the juicier the gossip, the more enjoyment that person would get out of it. HIndi siya magpi-preach kasi mas gusto nga niya ng ganong kuwento. Ang may gusto na iwasan ang loose talk, hindi mahilig sa chismis. So alin ba talaga? Di ko gets ang comment mo.

  35. I've been a huge fan of Lea since she was a little kid. I really didn't know her real family or she's been into intrigues. She is mostly known as the artist, the actress, the popular singer. I admire her really because she is the only celebrity who never join the rollercoaster intrigues just to be popular nor does she say negative things concerning her peers in the showbiz industry. She is just quiet and I like that. Hindi tulad ng ibang artista, maraming mga side stories about their personal family life, kung ibandera para sumikat lang. Lea Salonga is a real person, with GMRC, really, hindi ko siya narinig minsan na nagsalita ng negative sa mga interviews. Never ko ring narining na nanira siya or nanapak ng ibang tao. Kung ano siya ngayon, she made a name of her own, not using her father's influence being a SBMA chairman. No one is perfect my dear kababayan, no perfect family after all, hindi naman siya lumapastangan sa post niya, simple lang naman siya sa message niya. Ano pa ba ang puede niyang sabihin? ang maging tulad ng ibang tao na pulos papuri kapag patay na or maging totoo lang!

  36. The comment here made me think. Kailangan ba talaga mag-emote ang tao online pag may malapit na kamag-anak na pumanaw? Everyone grieves in their own way. Some would want to share their sorrow. Others want to keep their grief to themselves. But there is no need to share the death of a loved one in social media or, if one does, there is no need to post a lamentation for the dead. There is no reason to think that the actress was not mourning the death of her father simply because she did not express her sorrow online.
