Charice is not just “The Most Talented Girl in the World,” she is now also a Guinness World Record holder. But of what? Of being the youngest winning judge. The singer thanked Guinness World Records on Twitter and posted a page from the latest edition of the Guinness World Records book, which says that Charice “was 20 years 150 days old when she mentored KZ Tandingan to victory in the first season of The X Factor Philippines on 7 October 2012.”

We’re sure the comedienne isn’t too happy about how her former live-in partner, Joselito “Jojo” Diamse, just sued her for Attempted Murder, Grave Oral Defamation, Grave Coercion, and Violation of R.A. 7610 or the “Special Protection of Children Against Abuse, Exploitation and Discrimination Act.” The two were together for almost five years and broke up just five months ago. Both have moved on and are now in new relationships. But according to Jojo, Gladys made a scene last Aug. 23 when at 5am she crashed her car toward his house’s gate and even tried to run him over. He says that Gladys wanted him back and was jealous of his new girlfriend. According to Jojo, the comedienne also punched him and bit him on the chest. His two children from his first wife and the caretaker of his house all witnessed this. Gladys has reportedly been trying to get in touch with him, but he’s had enough of her and just wants everything to be settled in court.

While actress Maja Salvador has a lot of fans, she has a handful of bashers, too: those who don’t like her for boyfriend Gerald Anderson, those who are pro-Kim Chiu. Good that she knows how to shrug off negative comments. Maja explains that those are their opinions and that they should be respected. She said that some of them won’t stop no matter how much you tell them to do so. “Hindi pa din hihinto yung araw ko,” she said. She has one thing to say to bashers: “God bless!”

 

5. CESAR WANTS TO MAKE PEACE WITH SUNSHINE EVENTUALLY

Sunshine Cruz may have said some not-so-nice words about Cesar and it looks like the two aren’t getting back together any time soon, but the hot dad still wants to make peace with his wife eventually. However, he wants to do it because he loves their three daughters so much and he’s seen how affected they’ve all been ever since his marriage to Sunshine crumbled. He’s not that confident about it happening soon, though. “Only God knows,” he said.”
