Celebrity Tweets for DILG Sec. Jesse Robredo

The nation now mourns the untimely demise of Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG) Secretary Jesse Robredo.

His body was found yesterday in the plane wreckage in the seas of Masbate.

The good secretary, according to testimonials not only from his colleagues in politics but from ordinary folks is a good man who epitomizes the true meaning and essence of public service.

Philippine celebrities, through Twitter, have expressed their condolences and sympathies to his family and to the Filipino people.

Here are the said celebrity tweets:

Jodi Sta. Maria

"Ipagdasal po natin si Sec Robredo at ang kanyang naiwang pamilya, pati narin ang dalawang nasawing piloto at kanilang mga pamilya"

Lucy Torres-Gomez

"R.I.P. Sec. Jesse. Heaven is your reward for a life well-lived. You will always be an inspiration to so many."

Bianca Gonzalez

"to honor men like him, we can only hope the more good hearted, true servants like sec. robredo be elected and appointed into office."

 Anne Curtis-Smith

"Condolence to the Robredo Family"

 Kris Aquino

"U were always 1 of Mom's favorite mayors because u exemplified simplicity in true public service. I am already imagining your spirited conversations w/ our Dad."

Do good and everything follows.  He lived a simple life so that others may simply live. The Philippines will be a great nation only if all public officials will be like the good secretary of DILG.

Philippine Showbiz Newscaster Gretchen Fullido | Photos

At present, Filipina Gretchen Fullido is newscaster of the entertainment (showbiz) segment of ABS-CBN's primetime news cast, TV Patrol.

I cannot argue against the station's choice. After all, she went to University of the Philippines - Diliman with a course on Film at Audio Visual Communications. Not only that, she has a voluptuous body with a well-endowed chest in a proportional curvy frame! In below photos, she poses in swimsuit while enjoying the surf, sand and sun in Boracay.

She is a self-confessed dog lover (see her Twitter account: #gretchenfullido) and avid swimmer (she was varsity in college, a member of the UP swimming team). Gretchen was also once part of the cheerleaders of said state university.

She attracted the attention of audiences through the Colgate talent search, "Ang Trip Kita", where she won as first runner-up. Miss Fullido was then recruited as part of ABS-CBN's "Star Magic" pool of talents, where she became a showbiz celebrity as sports newscaster of the ANC news channel, a reporter of the amateur league Philippine Basketball League, host of Dateline Philippines and radio program DZMM Sports Talk.

In video below, she reports (and actually tries!) pole-dancing in a segment for Studio 23. Check out 1:55, she's really athletic.
