Nora’s body of work speaks for itself
RAMIREZ. Breath of fresh air.
Ellen Alejano, business analyst: “That the exclusion of Nora Aunor from the new batch of National Artists has elicited a huge outcry is a testament to the belief of many that she more than deserves the highest artistic honor, despite the morality issues being thrown at her. Her body of work as an actress speaks for itself.
“There are no excuses for her shortcomings, but it is to Nora’s credit that she was able to rise above them and continues to use her gifts—and, for that, we should be grateful!”
Other notes:
Armi Visenio, televiewer: “Vice Ganda is a witty and well-rounded host. Lately, however, he’s been dwelling on jokes with double meanings, bordering on indecency. He also tends to attract too much attention to himself. His network should look into this.”
Gilbert Ferrer, teacher: “Cross-dressing comedian Ate Gay should not trivialize and capitalize on Nora Aunor and the sensitive National Artist issue. His recent ‘Unang Hirit’ guesting was not funny at all. He should remember that he owes the Superstar big time for what he is now.”
Evelyn Lupisan, housewife: “It’s nice to see Daria Ramirez on television once again. I’m tired of seeing the same character actresses. Her presence on ‘Ikaw Lamang’ is a breath of fresh air!”
