Our rapid-fire roundup of things happening in Philippine showbiz.
1. ANNE SLAPS PEOPLE INSIDE PRIVE
Confirmed via Pep.ph: Anne Curtis slapped three people inside Privé Luxury Club last Nov 22. She was inside the comfort room and was heard shouting, “Who’s banging my door?” Next scene: she stepped out of the CR and slapped the first three people she saw: Circuit magazine editor JR Isaac, Leah de Guzman of Globe, and actor John Lloyd Cruz. More juicy stuff: she told Lloydie, “You’re an addict!” and she screamed at Phoemela Baranda, “You, what are you doing here? I can buy you, your friends, and this club!” Anne also told JM Rodriguez, who is one of the club owners, that “this is the worst club to have a party.” JM replied, “We took care of you here. We took care of your party. How dare you say this!”
Anne was escorted out of the club some minutes after while JR and his friends, who are regulars at the club, stayed.
JR shared that the encounter took place at around 2am and when he woke up at 4pm he read this text from Anne: “JR! It’s Anne. Got your number from Monique! Tried messaging you on Facebook this morning. Just want to apologize for my behavior! I’m so so so sorry. I’m so ashamed Frown would never act like that in the right state of mind! I’m so sorry. Please forgive me!”
He replied, “Hi Anne, just woke up and read your text. Apology accepted…On a lighter note, you owe me a tight hug!!! Going back to sleep, nursing my hang over.”
Interestingly, Anne and JR know each other and were batchmates in Metro Body Shots. He even escorted her inn a Mega event once.

Anne Curtis admitted last night on Twitter that the slapping incident really took place last Nov 22 and that she apologized “to someone” and that someone already forgave her. She added that she drank a little too much that night, which resulted to her inappropriate behaviour. “That’s why they say ‘Drink in moderation.’ I will charge it to experience & a lesson learned.”
Here’s her official statement:
Hey everyone. I will be making my official statement now & after this, I will not be giving any interviews about this issue anymore. I choose to do this right away because I’ve always been an open book & I don’t like to hide anything… For those who have read about the issue, yes, most of it is true. I admit to that & I have apologized to all parties included immediately… When I was told of my behavior AND the person who started all of this, due to this persons inappropriate behavior, apologized to me too… Just as I did. Which I accepted too. I choose not to go into detail because I’m not the type to ruin someone else’s name.. Now.. I had been on the super popular juice cleanse for 3 days & attended my best friends bachelorette that night, had one too many drinks…
…which led to some of these unfortunate events. That’s why they say ‘Drink in moderation’. I will charge it to experience & a lesson learned.
I’m sorry if I let any of my fans down…. As you all see, I’m just like any other person that makes mistakes in life…
Thank you to everyone that has messaged me about their support. With where I am today I owe all of you my honesty. Good night.

KC Concepcion has been open about how she feels as if she’s not yet ready to fall in love again especially if it’s going to be someone from showbiz, but she revealed to Buzz ng Bayan that suitor Paulo Avelino is an exception. She shared that she enjoys hanging out with him. “Feeling ko parang hindi lang siya yung basta nagpapa-cute,” she said.

Annabelle Rama doesn’t really want her family being compared with the Barrettos, but just did when she said that they are “worse.” “Ako, hindi ako inaway ng mga anak ko. Nagnakaw ng pera, nagnakaw ng mga alahas – hindi ako ganyan. At saka wala akong ninakaw naman talaga,” she said in an ABS-CBN News story. “ She is also grateful that even when her children give her money, they don’t do so as if she owes them big time.
5. JESSICA SANCHEZ IS IN TOWN TO DO MORE GOOD

Jessica may have already donated the proceeds of her online concert to the American Red Cross so they can help Yolanda victims, but she’s not done helping yet. The American Idol graduate is in town to do a mission together with the guys from Starkey Hearing Foundation so they can assist Pinoys with hearing loss and can’t acquire hearing aids. She will be going to General City, Lipa, Batangas, and then back to Manila with the goal of providing free hearing aids to about 5,000 people.
