Bongbong Marcos a regular visitor of Sarah Geronimo

CONG. BONGBONG MARCOS was reported to be a regular visitor of Sarah Geronimo at her home in Mindanao Ave., but he denied this at his launching as the new endorser of Ever Bilena Cosmetics Men's line, Blackwater Body Spray and Deodorant. "I was really surprised na may lumabas sa gossip columns na nakikita raw ang sasakyan ko sa labas ng bahay nila," he says. "The truth is I didn't even know Sarah. It's my sister Imee who pointed her billboard to me and said, 'Yan si Sarah. So I watched her movies and listened to her songs and I found out she's really very talented, a great comedian. Kawawa naman yung bata kasi walang kamalay-malay, na-link ako sa kanya."

Bongbong and Imee are good friends of Dioceldo Sy, Pres-CEO of Ever Bilena. "We believe in Bongbong," says Mr. Sy. "He has the makings of a great leader and Blackwater supports his bid as senator. We're happy to have him with our family of endorsers that include Francine Prieto and Christian Bautista."

Bongbong was the first in his family to return from exile in 1991. He became the vice governor of Ilocos Norte at 23 and later became governor in 1998 where he served for three consecutive terms before being a congressman. He's married to lawyer Louise Araneta with whom he has three sons. The presscon for Bongbong was scheduled at 9:30 AM but he arrived at 12 noon.
