Is Philippine movie journalism going berserk?
Anytime, news and features become sensational or even off and out of this world.
Suddenly, an unpredictable, shocking, and juicy showbiz tidbits has been hogging the headlines both in the social media and traditional sources of information.
Questions have been cropping up every minute.
Is Senator Jinggoy Estrada really gay?
Queries have been popping up because actor Robby Tarroza has expressed his sentiments about the alleged “real sexuality” of the actor-politician.
In his Facebook window, Robby called out Jinggoy about the actor-politician's real gender. "Jinggoy mag resign ka na (resign!!!) kundi (otherwise) i will be forced to tell the country about your double life!!! You are one of the reasons bat kami naghiwalay (why we parted ways). i have ALL the receipts dear. Try me! pareho lang kayo ng EX ko (you and my EX are the same…, BABOY (PIG!!)," posted Tarroza.
In his message, Robby was vague, though, in his accusations against Estrada.
Yes, Tarroza did say directly why the actor-politician should resign but he didn't clearly state why, except for the phrase "double life" which is even "double entendre."
Additionally, the accuser didn't specify who his "EX" or their gender was and the description of being "hog" was just indeterminate or shadowy.
But in his next FB page which is already erased, Tarroza directly described Senator Estrada as a gay man.
In all these accusations, TV host and entertainment writer Cristy Fermin debunked all of them.
“Binaboy ni Robby ang organisasyon ng LGBTQIA+ Binaboy niya ang mga bading nang isiwalat niya ang kababuyang ito (He besmirched the organization. He defamed gays when he spread this slanderous statements),” said Cristy.
“Kilalang-kilala ko po ang mga Estrada. Hindi totoo ang mga isyung ‘yan (I know the Estradas fully well. Those issues are false),” defended Fermin.
Indeed, Jinggoy must decide and act. He has kept his cool all this time.
Will he file a court case against Robby?
Let's wait and see!
