Bossing Vic says Wally Bayola must apologize for sex video scandal

Vic Sotto thinks his “Eat Bulaga” co-host Wally Bayola must make a public apology for his sex video scandal before he should be allowed to return to the show.

Vic, one of the acknowledged pillars of the 34-year-old daily noontime variety show, told Kris Aquino in an interview on the latter’s morning program “KrisTV” on Wednesday that he could ask management to bring back Bayola.

“For me personally OK lang naman, but he has to apologize. I think people will people understand. Alam ko naman mapagpatawad ang Pilipino,” he said.

Wally has taken a leave of absence from “Eat Bulaga” since early September after a sex video featuring himself and one of the show’s resident dancers, Yosh Rivera, leaked online.

One-half of a comic duo with fellow “Eat Bulaga” co-host Jose Manalo, Wally is married and has five children, the eldest of whom is 18.




In the same interview with Kris, Jose said his partner had, in fact, broken his hiatus recently when they appeared together at a fundraising event in Olongapo City. They had been booked for the event before the scandal broke out.

The duo received an award from the organizers, after which, Jose said, Wally addressed the crowd briefly, “Maraming salamat sa muli n’yong pagtanggap sa akin.”

Jose said he took over the microphone and apologized on Wally’s behalf, without directly referring to the sex video scandal.

In an interview with InterAksyon in late October, another “Eat Bulaga” co-host, Michael V., said the public should give Wally a second chance in the spirit of Christmas.

““Malapit na naman ang Pasko na panahon ng pagpapatawad at pagbibigayan. Sana naman makabalik si Wally,” he said.

Despite quitting all her shows, Kris Aquino gains little sympathy from Twitterverse

After a tearful James Yap called a press conference and refuted Kris Aquino’s allegations of “overt sexual advances”, it was the Queen of all Media’s turn to go on national television to belie her ex-husband’s statements.

Insisting that their son Bimby saw what really happened, Kris announced Wednesday night that she was quitting all her TV shows (“KrisTV”, “Kailangan Ko’y Ikaw” and “Pilipinas Got Talent”) on ABS-CBN to devote all of her time for her son who has been traumatized by the incident.

“It’s not between James and me and who is telling the truth. It’s about how much I love my son. Tama naman ang sinabi ng mga tao na kawawa na si Bimby so kailangan gawin ko ito para sa kanya,” she told broadcast journalist Ted Failon in a live interview for “TV Patrol”.

Despite the presence of her sisters, Ballsy, Pinky and Viel who all vowed their unqualified support for Kris, netizens on Twitter have remained unsympathetic to the controversial actress-host. Many are particularly annoyed by the fact that just like in many instances in the past, she is once again hogging headlines while significant national issues like Sabah and the coming elections have taken the back seat.

On the contrary, James Yap’s statements on his own press conference immediately made him a trending topic on Twitter last Thursday. While there are a few tweets that are favorable to Kris, most of the posts found the beleaguered basketball superstar to be more believable by comparison.

As the Kris Aquino vs. James Yap issue continues to be a much talked about topic both online and offline, one thing that seems to remain largely unchanged is the way many people continue to view Kris’ actions in a negative light.

James Yap says Kris badmouthed him to Bimby, threatened him using PNoy’s name

Basketball star James Yap tearfully refuted on Wednesday the allegations made by his ex-wife Kris Aquino in the petition for temporary protection order (TPO) she had filed against him at the Makati Regional Trial Court.

Last Friday, Kris asked the court to order James to stay away from her, their son Bimby, and her housemaids by a minimum distance of 100 meters. She alleged that he tried to seduce her during a visit to her condominium unit last December, and that he hurled “mean and malicious statements” at her when she rejected his “overt sexual advances”.

The incident, she claimed, was witnessed by their son Bimby, 5, who suffered emotional and psychological trauma as a result.

James denied that he tried to seduce Kris and said he merely tried to show Bimby how the boy could be more affectionate to him by demonstrating a kiss on Kris.

“Ayaw talaga ako i-kiss ni Bimby so pumunta ako kay Kris. Hinawakan ko siya rito,” he said, meaning her upper arm.

“‘Bimb look o iki-kiss ko na mama mo’… Tapos si Kris biglang nagsabi na ‘Sinasaktan mo ako’. Parang sinasabi niya ‘Bimbs o, sinasaktan ako ng papa mo. Tapos ‘yung bata akala talaga sinasaktan siya,” James narrated.

He said Kris then embraced Bimby to calm the boy, with Bimby’s back to James and Kris facing James. At this point, James claimed, Kris made faces at him.

James said he had no reason to seduce his ex-wife because he had already moved on after they separated in 2010 and their marriage was annulled last year. He said he has a girlfriend.

“Wala na,” he said, sobbing. “Wala na naman ako pakialam kay Kris e. Ang gusto ko lang makasama na ‘yung anak ko… Bakit niya ako sinisiraan sa anak ko?” he lamented.

James said that before the incident he sensed that Bimby was mad at him because Kris had badmouthed him to their son.

“Sobrang nasasaktan ako kasi sinasabihan ako ng anak ko na ‘I don’t like you. You’re a liar!’ Iniisip ko, ano ba ang ginawa ko?… Sino nagsasa… (pauses, crying) Sino nagsasabi sa ‘yo niyan? Sabi niya ‘Huhu Mama, mama.’

“Pag sinasabihan ako masasakit na salita ang ginagawa ko, ‘Bimb tingin ka sa mata ni Papa. Ito lang masasabi ko sa ‘yo… Love na love ka ni Papa,” he said, sobbing again.

James said he confronted Kris about this, but she only responded with a threat that name-checked her brother, President Noynoy Aquino.

“Sabi niya… baka nakalimutan mo may three years pa ‘yung brother ko. Sabi ko ah ganun? Grabe ka naman. Grabe ka naman, ang yabang mo!… ‘Yun na yung last namin. Galit na galit siya,” he recounted.




James’ lawyer, Atty. Lorna Kapunan, said the incident that Kris cited in her petition happened three months ago. She said she believes her real motive for filing the TPO can be traced to James’ refusal only last month to sign adoption papers that would take away his rights as a father to Bimby.

“She files one month after he did not sign the adoption. That’s our only inference,” Atty. Kapunan said.

Kris’ counsel, Atty. Frank Chavez, doesn’t believe that Kris had filed a petition for Bimby’s adoption with any court.

“Kung meron man, hindi ‘yan dumaan sa opisina namin at nabanggit sana ‘yan ni Kris sa ‘kin,” he said.

Atty. Chavez said Kris did not need to badmouth James to Bimby.

“Lahat ito hindi siya tinuturuan. Alienating the child from him needs no help from anybody. James yap is succeeding,” he said.

Atty. Chavez said James had been remiss on his twice-weekly visitation schedule last year. “If you look at the records it was just 22 to 24 visits out of 104,” he said.

Atty. Chavez said Kris is not inclined to talk to James about letting him visit Bimby again.

“He should deserve it! He should work for it! It’s not something he could claim,” he said.
