How about having Kris Aquino Yap as the spokesperson of Sen. Noynoy Aquino if ever he wins the presidency? That surely is a blockbuster and political blackhole but I think is of course short of a Kris Aquino scandal.
In the past days since his brother Noynoy declared of running for the presidential position on 2010, her excitement could never be tamed for the renewed attention and has never stopped also on stepping on the spotlight and sharing without caution some of the most revealing if not embarrassing inside scoops on the life of his brother. Kris Aquino in the news with husband James Yap and Baby James Aquino Yap flasing the “L” sign.
Her appearances on TV recently bring a nostalgic feel. Kris Aquino as a young lovely little girl took the stage and campaigned for his father the late Sen. Benigno “Ninoy” Aquino; the people obviously was so captivated with her innocence, wit and longing for her father. Ninoy Aquino won. That was a perfect.
Today, she has certainly taken the center stage once again revealing to the media and to the whole world how she seemingly tries to “dictate” his brother Noynoy on lots of things: Josh requesting Noynoy not to get married as being his only protector; her comment on Noynoy’s girlfriend Shalani Soledad that earned for her the ire of some people of Valenzuela; trying to show to the public her support for Noynoy’s relationship by telling the whole world that she will shoulder the wedding’s expenses; telling everyone about her urging for Noynoy to have makeover ranging from his balding head, what to wear, pants with pleats, trousers, barongs, eyeglasses, haircut, hiring for him famous fashion designers to take care of his “baduy” outfits.
Wow, a presidentiable being undressed by his younger sister before the whole world!
On a political milieu that thrives on image and marks one’s political survival in return, Kris Aquino’s most recent irritating candidness is a double-edged sword that Noynoy has to endure. Or his political spinsters will try to balance out with a new approach.
First: Noynoy could certainly have an improve image/looks to the voting public with a sister who is obsessed with image and attention, dictating him and guiding him of what is in and what is out in terms of fashion. In short, Noynoy will look better of course but not necessarily more handsome.
But, the second part is something for him to think over. With her sister unmasking to the public things that are considered personal and embarrassing for a presidentiable, Kris Aquino is just painting a bad image for his brother. The Palace is challenging Noynoy to become a man of himself and not merely living under the shadows of his parents so much so under the shadow and dictates of his sister in this instance.
It may be said that what Kris is so far doing is more of helping his brother have a physical makeover, but it is also leaving an image to the public that Noynoy has this sister who will always engage on his affairs if not reveal to the public some of the things he considers personal. That is a bad image for a Presidentiable much more of a President, especially on a time when the whole nation is looking for a President who could not be dictated, someone with political will and conviction.
Now I am hearing Erap Estrada saying, “Walang kai-kaibigan, walang kamag-anak, walang kapatid.”
What Noynoy will gain with a new physical makeover he will all lose and maybe even have to pay more to a bad image that Kris Aquino is painting on the public eye.
This time I am not pretty sure that Kris could totally deliver the good for his aspiring brother.
So what if Kris Aquino will become Noynoy’s spokesperson when elected as President?
Here is one scenario I created while under the spell of caffeine:
Reporters: Mam, how is President Noynoy Aquino doing? What are the things that he wants to accomplish on the first months in office?
Sec. Kris Aquino: Well, President Noynoy Aquino woke up very maaga. Tapos un, he had breakfast with us and Josh and Baby James, then sabi ko nga sa kanya, “Noy, wear this kasi you will look better on this barong. And this pants.” Grabe talaga, super dami ni President Noynoy na gustong gawin for our nation especially the mahihirap.
(one reporter smilling)
Sec. Kris Aquino: What? Why are you smilling? (laughs) Grabe naman, believe me guys. Noynoy will do everything para sa ating nation. Have you seen his new barong? Gawa ni friend kong si JC un. Looks great dib a? And you know, I told him nga kanina na ayusin ang hair nya or else matulad siya kay Boy Abunda (laughs).
(Kris has been speaking with the reporters for 3 hours nonstop).
Sec. Kris Aquino: And you know….
Dah dah dah dah…
So maybe I will just have to prepare myself for though if ever Noynoy wins and chooses an official presidential spokesperson, we will always hear Kris Aquino sharing to public things that would make Noynoy red-faced.
That is what you call a genuinely transparent Presidency.
How do you see Kris Aquino’s role so far in line with Noynoy Aquino’s Presidential aspiration? How do you see Kris Aquino’s role if ever Noynoy wins the Presidency?

Kris Aquino will definitely assume the Office of the First Lady. Since Noynoy can’t marry until the “babang luksa,” he will assume the presidency as a bachelor.
The Office of the First Lady is a vital position in the Presidential Household. It can be remembered that President Quirino appointed her own daughter as acting First Lady.

Wow, that is a new twist to the scenario thas only come to my mind. Indeed, if Noynoy and their family really follow the tradition and with Kris Aquino most probably getting married first since she has already announced their church wedding next year, Nonoy definitely has to wait for another year in order not to fall to that belief on “sukob”.
With that, if Noynoy wins, Kris could become the First Lady. How about her other sisters? I think they are more qualified especially that one, was it Ballsy?…who worked with President Cory Aquino?
Well, we have lots of things to expect then…

VP? Huwaaat??? Duh, that is too much bro! Hahahha! Though the VP has been seen as someone with not so much workload compared to the boss, Kris will certainly stir even more the political climate “if ever she runs” for that post.
The country then will surely become a big showbiz circus. How about Boy Abunda as her campaign manager? LOL!

Thanks for the visit Ronald and on sharing your view.
I agree, Kris really looked great many years back when she campaigned for father. That was perfect. Very effective. But “that Kris” is far different from the Kris we are seeing today. And I could speak for myslf, that what a joke it would be if Krissy will become the spokesperson of Noynoy.

Hey Elmot, thanks for visiting my site too. I hope you get something from it although my blog is very much younger than yours. You’re one of the few bloggers that I look up too now.
Great commentaries on current events which I like to make however my time doesn’t permit because I have other online jobs.
Regarding the FREE traffic getting SEO plug-in, I guarantee its effectiveness. I have installed it on my blog and I believe it has brought about the higher ranking of my site and almost beaten other sites that has been online for years.
I have also made a new blog post on how to become a super affiliate which I think will be essential for us, internet marketers and bloggers.
Hope you could drop by my site and hope we could help each other out to boost our sites’ ranking.

Hehehe, funny scenario. Kris as Noynoy’s spokesperson? I don’t think so, masyado syang tactless. Eh kasi naman you know she’s so madaldal talaga that’s why some people wants to hear less of her and more of Noynoy. Ano nga kaya ang pwedeng role nya, if ever? I can’t think of any, hehe.

Hi Mam Amor! Oo nga eh, taklesa sya masyado. Nakaka-irita nasiya, masakit sa tenga. She is blessing for Noynoy kasi talagang hahatak siya ng votes pero hello, ibulgar ba sa buong mundo ang lahat ng bagay patungkol sa kapatid niya at pamilya? I think may limitations naman dun and may paraan.
Hahahaha! Oks lang po, I will just add the “s”.

It cannot be helped because Noynoy doesn’t really “sell well” on TV unlike Kris who’s already a big TV personality. They really need to repackage Noynoy for the elections, hopefully not too extreme as to alienate those who like him just the way he is right now.
As per Kris being the “acting” First Lady until Noynoy gets married and if he ever wins the Presidency, let’s pray that it will not lead to The Buzz being aired live from Malacañan.

Sana nga wag maging over ang packaging kay Noynoy kasi mawawalan siya ng maraming followers. But Noynoy needs to be man of himself, speak more with clarity of his plans.
The Buzz sa Palasyo? Wahahahha! Ayos, eh di baka si Boy Abunda pwede na ring maging cabinet secretary? Wahahahha! Taas ng rating niyan for sure.

I beg to disagree, Elmot. Why are you pouncing on Kris Aquino? The dynamics of her relationship with her brother is entirely their own affair. Suddenly, you now have inside track into the Aquino household? You now see dire consequences for the country just because of the probability of this brother-sister act ending up in Malacañang?
The things you’ve listed are trifling matters, bro. You speak of fashion, wardrobe, grooming, etc. Do you have evidence Noynoy can be made to the dance around Kris Aquino’s little finger on important policies involving Noynoy’s official conduct as Senator in so far as his public conduct is concerned? That’s the relevant question.
What you’re saying is hearsay.
And please, Kris Aquino is not tactless. She speaks her mind. She’s forthright about a lot of things even you and I haven’t the guts to say. She’s her own person. We’d rather perpetuate the notion of a Filipino woman as docile, having the right to speak only when spoken to?
So what is exactly is your beef against her?
What is exactly your afraid we’d degenerate into as a nation with her having the ears of a would-be president? We’re already in the gutter, dude.
What’s a little Showbiz Lingo right in the heart of the presidential seat of power, eh? Jhay is spot on on that one.
It’s sad you dropped the ball on this one, bro. There are more worthy despicable beasts to slay than an excitable would-be presidential sister. Train your guns elsewhere. You’re wasting precious bullets on this one.

I find this worthy bro, and I will not get tired of loading in my bullets on my pistol, oh that is little bit small for this big, sharp and heavy a comment…I will rephrase it. I will not even get tired every single minute of loading in my ammunition to my bazooka and aim every single fire I make at Kris Aquino if I find some issues very important to me.
This I find worthy. And I will not stop my cannons to blast on anyone out there who will continue to drag this nation into that gutter or even fall to an even worse situation.
maybe I will have to buy a black hawk or a nuclear war head to beef up my arsenal. Coz this is a fight worth fighting for, Dude.

I am not into watching ABS-CBN, so, I really am not aware so much of Kris’ “center stage”. But my office mate told me that she had cried for a couple of times while telling something about Noynoy’s candidacy. Makes me feel that it is exaggerated.

Well, we really don’t know if it is exaggerated for Kris but for a nation watching it, it might easily border on exaggeration.
That is the trademark of Kris Aquino. It could either help or also break in some way Noynoy. It is no perfect investment.

Good luck then, bro.
Your zeal is very commendable. Although I took exception to your Kris-bashing, it’s your notion about Kris that I find disagreeable. Not you as a blogger. And certainly not you as a friend. I wish can make it more clearer than this.
I’m sorry my admiration for Kris got the better of me. And that I always invoke my friendship with you whenever I give vent to my pet notions of good blogging – I’m sorry about that, too. It’s all becoming too predictable, eh?
I’m very thankful you gave space to my wayward comment. That at least is very reassuring. For what it’s worth, I can’t be more pleased. Thanks, Elmot.

Dear Kris,
We like your brother the way he is, and the way he looks. We thank you for preparing him for us. I think he holds the last spark of light in this country’s future. We will support him because of what he stands for.
It takes a lot of courage, bravery and perseverance to take up a huge responsibility like the RP and he has been the person we all have been waiting for. A breath of freshness and a ton of HOPE for the Filipino people.
I need you to secure his safety at all times, more than anything else in the world. That is a huge responsibility but I know that you have limitless energy and creativity to fulfill that.
We have placed our hopes high on NONOY, our hears have been broken for so long. He is the only one who can mend it.
People.. don’t be negative, let this family do what they have to do. You will benefit from it. I’m sure.
IT IS TIME TO RISE FROM THE ASHES OF DISATISFACTIONS AND MISFORTUNES.
LET NONOY AND FREEDOM TAKE FLIGHT.
