NARINIG namin sa premiere night ng advocacy film na The New Generation Heroes sa SM Megamall Cinema 7 nitong Biyernes ang usapan ng entertainment editors na sina Ervin Santiago at Dondon Sermino tungkol sa Star Magic Ball (ginanap na kagabi sa Makati Shangri-La).

Hindi raw kasi inimbita si Sharon Cuneta sa Star Magic Ball kaya naglabas ito ng sama ng loob. Pero last minute ay pinadalhan na ng imbitasyon si Shawie para dumalo sa naturang event.

'Iconic women!' Pinakamalaki at pinakamaliit na babae sa buong mundo, nagkita!

Nag-check kami sa social media account ng megastar, at nakita namin ang post niyang ito: “Thank you, Star Magic, for delivering our invitation to your Ball one day before. Wish we could go, but I have nothing spectacular to wear and there obviously isn’t any more time. Sayang. I also had my assistant relay to Winnie yesterday when she asked for our address (no one in ABS knows my address?) that it was okay and unnecessary kasi nga wala nang oras. It’s really alright, my ‘kapamilya,’ though you didn’t have to send it na at the last minute. Have fun at your Ball, everyone.

God bless. (Oh and Happy 25th Anniversary. I’ve been with ABS-CBN for 25 years as well (29 sana if I didn’t leave in 2011).

Akala namin ay okay na kasi nagpadala na ng pormal na imbitasyon.

Pero hindi pala dahil tila lalong napasama pa ang last minute invitation ng Star Magic sa megastar, dahil nag-post ang aktres nitong Biyernes, 8 PM.

“I have to admit I am a bit hurt and quite insulted. Guess the saying isn’t always true. I just wanted to be with my big family. But then again, it’s just a ball.

“If it was a fundraiser, a trade show or whatever Shawie would have always been #1 on the list. And she ALWAYS gives with all her heart.

“Party time? Shawie absent. I am sorry. I’m not plastic. And I KNOW my worth. I’m sure that is not lost on others either. And I will not go quietly into the night and put on a fake smile.

“Shawie must remember not everyone who says they love her, does. A lot do, but not everyone. Even those she trusted the most. Sad but true. Not so naive anymore. I like to be surrounded by people who love, respect, and value me. Who wouldn’t, right?

“My heart is sad. But then again, Megastardom of almost 40 years came, with at least 20 of those being the queen of queens in showbiz, lording it over everyone and all without the help of social media or yes having to attend any balls.

“Vicor and Viva (Daddy, Daddy Tito, Mama Mina, Boss Vic, Ate Baby Gil, my Sharonians, friends from the press, and other loving and helpful people) MADE me.

“I was ‘made’ before my beloved ABS-CBN pirated me from another station. And my star shone even brighter. So though am hurt, ‘tampororot’ I love my Kapamilya. But my heart is wearing a band-aid on it now. End of issue.”

Samantala, ilang taon din daw palang iniimbita si Sharon sa Star Magic Ball pero hindi naman siya nakararating.

Kaya nakapagtataka kung bakit ngayong 2017 ay last minute lang inimbita si Sharon sa nasabing ball ng ABS-CBN Star Magic talents.

Hmmm, baka nga hindi lang naman alam ang address nina Sharon kaya hindi naihatid kaagad ang kanyang imbitasyon. Ano sa palagay mo, Bossing DMB?
