Don't look now, but at the rate things go, everything points to TV Personality TP joining (yet again) another tv show. This time, the show is said to be the network’s newly Reformatted Program RP.

RP, already staffed and manned by the network’s Seasoned Talents ST is not lacking for anymore additional talent to make it run and attract viewers and advertisers. As it is, RP is sailing smoothly under ST’s capable hands. Sources said that TP joining in might bring some bumps and rock the boat needlessly.

Quite puzzling too is TP seems to love working with a Close Buddy. Is CB even aware of the public sentiment of their being together? Does CB’s presence all the time give TP a certain stability, much like a security blanket? Does CB feel the same way?

In a way, it might be true when observers say that only TP can define her own relationships. The manner by which TP calls the shots seems to reinforce that more than TP needing CB, it is CB whose star will likely shine only if TP so desires.

In the meantime, let us see what awaits the rest of ST’s when ‘outsider’ TP finally steps in their enclave. Will they remain or not?

Cedric Lee, Deniece Cornejo, et al and the Social Media

The public and netizens have gladly welcomed the news on the arrest of suspects Cedric Lee and companion this morning. With the outpouring of public sympathy for the victim Vhong Navarro, netizens said that the news of the arrest meant that justice is slowly but surely moving for the the actor/host.

Fugitive businessman Lee and co-accused Zimmer Raz were arrested Saturdaymorning of April 26, in Oras, Samar.

The arrest of the two who were among those accused in the mauling of actor/tv host Vhong Navarro were conducted by the operatives of the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI), Philippine National Police (PNP) Samar, and the Intelligence Service of the Armed Forces of the Philippines (ISAFP). They will be brought to the NBI headquarters in Manila as soon as possible, according to Justice Secretary Leila de Lima in an interview over radio station DZBB early this afternoon.

Cedric and Zimmer, along with Lee’s sister Bernice, model Deniece Cornejo and several cohorts in the assault were charged with grave coercion and serious illegal detention, after they allegedly framed Navarro for raping Cornejo inside her condominium unit last January. Serious illegal detention is a non-bailable offense.

Earlier, Cornejo and Sajed “Jed” Fernandez Abuhijleh posted bail of P12,000 each for grave coercion raps filed by Navarro at the Taguig Metropolitan Trial Court.

The series of events began after the mauling of Vhong on January 22 in a unit in Forbeswood Heights, Taguig City. People were shocked and aghast when the bloodied and seriously injured Navarro appeared on television and narrated his ordeal before the horrified public.

Since then, the public's outpouring of sympathy for Vhong and outrage at Cedric, Deniece and company began to flood the social media. Fans and friends of Vhong in and out of showbiz, as well as various media organizations were one in saying that the incident should be seriously and hastily addressed fearing that the suspects - well connected and moneyed - would just play around with the law and elude prosecution.

There were alleged reports that the mauling of Vhong was not the first one attributed to Cedric and his men. Various names of popular actors such as John Lloyd Cruz and Jake Cuenca were also reportedly victimized by the group, to which the two, fearing the repercussions on their lives and career have reportedly paid up and kept mum on the matter. Pressed for comments after the Vhong incident, John Lloyd denied the rumor attributed to him.

What probably kept the authorities on their toes is that apart from it being a high profile case, tremendous pressure from the furious netizens who had relentlessly barraged the social media also did it in.

For the meantime, the alert public is not putting its guards down. If their strong sentiments on the Vhong, Cedric/Deniece, et al, incident have put pressure on the authorities, the public outrage on the rape of the country's coffers will spell the difference.

Next to watch out for - the Pork Barrel Saga and its alleged mastermind and beneficiaries - Janet Lim Napoles and the men in the halls of Congress.

Hollywood star Andrew Garfield congratulated Kris Aquino and her youngest son, Bimby, for beating his first "Spider-Man" film in the Philippines in terms of earnings.

This after Aquino bragged to Garfield that their movie, "My Little Bossings," holds the record for the highest first-day gross in the Philippines.

Aquino, who was accompanied by Bimby, interviewed Garfield in Singapore, whose movie, "The Amazing Spider-Man 2," premieres in the Philippines on April 30.

"Actually he (Bimby) was supposed to say 'that the first-day gross of his movie in the Philippines actually beats Spider-Man. Our movie holds the record for the highest first-day gross. It's called 'My Little Bossings.' In English, 'My Little Bosses.' It's a comedy, it was shown on Christmas Day'," Aquino said on Kris TV.

Garfield replied, saying: "Fantastic... Well, congratulations."

Aquino also thanked Garfield for allowing her son to meet him and witness the interview, as well as have a photo taken with him.

"Thank you for this opportunity, thank you for this wonderful chance. May I take a picture? Oh, thank you so much, this is the ultimate mama moment," she said.

On the "Kris TV" episode which aired on Friday, Aquino praised Garfield for being so nice and accommodating.

"Oh 'di ba, kapag pinaligaya ang anak mo, ikaw na ang pinakamasaya sa buong mundo. I love him. Genuinely mabait, hindi ba? I was the last to interview him that day, he did 24 interviews. Ganoon sya kabait," she said.
