"Dpa nya nkalimutan bnso q (She did not forget my youngest son)," came Kenneth's father's reaction to Bernardo's revelation.

Enterprising netizens were able to find Bernardo’s first-ever childhood crush when she was in grade two. Here are some facts about him:

Why Bella Padilla unfollowed Piolo Pascual, Kyle Echarri

Netizens raised their eyebrows when they noticed that It’s Showtime host Bela Padilla unfollowed two of her Pamilya Sagrado co-stars, Piolo Pascual and Kyle Echarri.

“I did! I woke up one day and I was following around 7,000 people. So now, I’m trying to declutter by bringing my following down to zero slowly and then will follow my friends back one by one. I was just talking to Kyle about this last night,” she wrote in her recent post.

One fan agreed with what Padilla did.

“I did the same thing! I had around 3k friends and decided to unfriend those who weren’t close to me or my family. Now I have around 300 friends, and it’s been a relief,” the fan said.

Valerie West: A woman of substance, form

Valerie West, one of the official candidates in the forthcoming Miss Universe Philippines competition next month, has the makings of a true beauty queen.

We had an interview with West recently and we found her articulately intelligent.

So, what’s the palpable truth about her?

“I’m in a place where I’m trying to find what I want to do and for now it’s beauty pageant. I’m competing in Miss Universe Philippines to find a creative outlet. Besides that, I do science, I dance, I sing. There’s many different outlets that I’m exploring,” she said.

Representing Ifugao, West refused to be called half-Filipina, half-American.

“I don’t consider myself hard and half because how can you be half of one culture, half of another. I’m a blend of both. It’s not like I’m a hybrid of different (nationalities),” she said.

“My morals and values in the way I was raised, I really relate to Filipino values, visions and the sense of family have pride in.  In terms of how I was raised, I was raised more of a Filipino but my accent is American,” she added.

West does not frown on mothers joining beauty pageants.

“There’s so many mothers in this year’s pageants and I find them so wise and so caring. We should embrace their journeys as well. Why does it have to stop your beauty queen journey when you become a mother?”
