Charice Comes Out Of The Closet And Admits Suspicions About Her Sexuality Are True

JUST LIKE Aiza Seguerra and BB Gandanghari before, Charice Pempengco has officially come out of the closet in “The Buzz” last Sunday to end all speculations about her sexual preference. She told Boy Abunda simply: “Opo, tomboy po ako.”

Not only that. Her Mommy Racquel has previously denied that they had a big fight, but Charice herself admitted it: “Opo, nag-away po kami ni Mommy. Iniintindi ko po siya kasi nasaktan man niya ako, mas nasaktan ko siya bilang isang ina. Sa ngayon, nasa stage kaming sinusubukan naming intindihin ang isa’t isa.”

She admits she has left her mom’s home and her brother Carl. “Umalis po ako kasi yun ang kailangan kong gawin. Nakikita po ako ngayon sa isang pamilya sa Cabuyao, Laguna na hindi ko ine-expect na makikipagsapalaran din, sina Mommy Inah, Daddy George at Kuya Glen (her current manager). Sa kanila ko nadama ang freedom na gawin kung anong gusto kong gawin. Tanggap nila ako kung sino ako, puede kong magbaliw-baliwan nang hindi nila hinuhusgahan. Nagpapasalamat ako sa second family ko. One month na ko sa kanila.”

She says her career continues, both locally and internationally. She’s supposed to do some shows here and abroad and also record a new album. About her admitted sexual preference, she says she doesn’t any problem in it.

“Hindi ko po alam kung ano ang problema dun. Kasi para po sa akin, wala pong problema yun. Gusto ko lang humingi ng patawad sa mga hindi po nakakaintindi, sa mga hindi po ako matatanggap, sorry po. Naiintindihan ko kayo. Pero sa lahat ng makakatanggap, matatanggap ako, maraming-maraming salamat po.”

She added she can now heave a sigh of relief. “Sa ginawa kong ito, gusto ko lang na sabihin na ang gaan ng pakiramdam ngayon. Makakalabas ako ng bahay na wala akong itatago, na wala akong masasagasaang tao dahil wala akong itinatago!” She said sorry to her mom and brother. “Sorry, pero ito ako. Proud ako sa sarili ko. Mahal ko ang sarili ko kaya ko po ginagawa ito. Sa fans ko, alam ko na marami sa inyo, disappointed, siguro tatalikuran na ako. Sincere akong tao, from the bottom of my heart, I’m sorry.”

About her rumored girlfriend, Alyssa Quijano, her ward in “X Factor Philippines”, she didn’t exactly admit that they’re on but you can read between the lines. “She’s my inspiration. She’s very special to me.”
