- The Unkabogable comedian was offended by an entertainment reporter after his FAMAS award win
On Thursday, May 3, when the oldest award-giving body—Filipino Academy of Movie Arts and Sciences Awards (also known as FAMAS Awards) announced their list of nominees for the upcoming ‘Gabi ng Parangal’ set on June 10; a violent reaction from one of the entertainment columnist and radio hosts—Gorly Rula made a comment against Vice Ganda via an article on PEP.ph that said: “Maganda ang lineup ng nominees; pero hindi pa rin nawawala ang ilang questions, bakit?
“Kaya lang, di ko kayang palagpasin itong pagpili nila ng Dolphy Lifetime Achievement Award na igagawad kay Vice Ganda. Bakit hindi muna si Vic Sotto na mas marami nang na-achieve kesa kay Vice kahit consistent siyang box-office winner at most bankable star?”
Rula didn’t mince his words, but further stated, “Meron pa ngang Joey de Leon. Dahil bas a ABS-CBN ang airing?”
Clearly from the words of Rula, he opposed the idea of picking the host of ‘It’s Showtime’ to be the recipient of the lifetime achievement award. This didn’t sit well with the box-office star and Vice took to twitter his sentiments over Gorgy.
“Una, Gorgy Rula di ko po kayo kilala at di ko po alam ang mga napatunayan nyo sa buhay kaya di ko din po alam kung bakit masyado kang apektado at di nyo po kayang irespeto ang FAMAS, ang mga tao sa likod nito at ang kanilang desisyon.
“Pangalawa, halatang di ka po masaya para sa aking tagumpay. So nag isip po ako kung paano kita mapapasaya. E kung gumawa ka na lang ng sarili mong pa-award para ikaw ang masunod tapos magiisponsor ako ng pambili mo ng trophy magiging happy po ba kayo?
“Di po ako galit sa inyo Mr. Gorgy Rula ha. Naramdaman ko lang po di kayo masaya para sa tagumpay ko kaya nagiisip ako kung pano kita mapapasaya. Kilala mo naman ako I want to make people happy.”
Vice Ganda even proposed this scenario to Gorgy, “Kung masyadong abala nman para s inyo ang paggawa ng sarili mong pa-award e ganito na lng po. Attend po kyo ng FAMAS sa June 10 tapos pagyat ko po ng stage at makapagpasalamat e tatawagin kita para iabot sayo ung trophy para ibigay mo kung kanino mo hustong ibigay. Keri ba un?”
Even at this time, the award-giving body is already creating such noise because of the ‘questionable’ decision that FAMAS has made according to Gorgy Rula.
Rula also writes for Philippine Star and one of the anchors of PEP Alerts along with Noel Ferrer and Jerry Olea.
