Kris Aquino wants the last word on issue with Ruffa

AT THE PRESSCON we attended Monday night, most movie writers present said they were turned off by Kris Aquino's crying binge in the "The Buzz" after Boy Abunda's taped interview with Ruffa Gutierrez. Ruffa offered peace and even gave Kris flowers so they'll have no more Team Ruffa and Team Kris but just Team Friendship. "Gusto talaga ni Kris, she has the last word," says one newshen. "At talagang tinodo niya ang pag-emote. Kaya lang ang dalas na niyang ngumangalngal sa 'The Buzz' kaya nakakasawa na. Hindi pala siya sincere in apologizing to Ruffa kasi pinilit lang siya ng sisters niya and she feels wala siyang nagawang mali."

"Ang haba ng aria at litanya niya but it all boils down to electioneering dahil ang bottomline niya, please vote for Noynoy," says another writer. "Di ba dapat bawal yun sa TV? I would have admired her more kung nag-thank you na lang siya kay Ruffa for the flowers and kept quiet. That would have put a period sa issue nila."

Even on the net, most letter writers show their disdain for her. Here are two letters that more or less summarize the reaction of readers who wrote to us. This is from Sonny True: "Kris, if ever Noynoy would lose, he should blame no one else but you. You might pull in the crowds in his provincial sorties but you're behavior on TV is so off-putting. The issue here is Ruffa finally reacting to your endless pambabara to her, not people using you to attack Noynoy. Review your Point of View segment and see how many times you tried to embarrass Ruffa, even Boy Abunda. If Noynoy would lose, blame it on your ego and being so self-centered. Honestly, we have high respects for Ninoy and Cory, but for you, nada, sorry to say but not even for Noynoy who's been so quiet at the senate all the time and now suddenly runs for the presidency just become your mom passed. Sa inyong lahat, only Ballsy commands respect and I'm sad she's not able to knock some sense into your conceited head."

This is from Gingging Lam-Uy: "Kris should be nominated for her acting in 'The Buzz". Bakit kaya hindi niya ibigay yung ganung klase ng acting sa kanyang teleserye? Kasi doon, umiiyak man siya o tumatawa pareho ang expression ng face niya. Hindi naman niya madadaya ang viewers kasi hindi lang naman si Ruffa ang binabara niya kundi pati si Boy Abunda. It's true that Kris is not a liar kasi when she got STD from Joey Marquez, ipinamalita pa niya sa buong mundo. Sa totoo lang, I'd rather vote for a president who doesn't have a sister like Kris who's more a liability than an asset to him."

At the presscon we attended, some writers point out that when Joey Marquez had a medical exam then, it was shown that he never had STD. They also recalled how Kris went to visit the wake of Cristy Fermin's mom recently and chided Cristy for not going to the wake of Pres. Cory. Cristy said she wrote so many tributes to Cory in her columns that would be more than enough than her actual presence in the wake. "Ikaw nga, namatay ang father ng publicist mo, ni hindi mo pinuntahan," Cristy added. She's referring to Vinia Vivar whose dad, Levi Pabalan, passed away a few weeks ago.So Kris went to Vinia's house and only then did she give an abuloy of P10,000 to Vinia.
