Ai-Ai delas Alas : The Saga of a Sugar-Momma-turned-Battered-Wife


Ai-Ai delas Alas’ issue is not an isolated case. Millions of women out there suffer the same fate, especially older women. They meet young, good looking guys with well-sculpted bodies and innocent looking face. But behind the boy-next-door image lies a devil in disguise. My, my. 

While we were all shocked with happened to seemingly indefatigable comedy queen, I believe I wasn’t shocked with the way her husband behaved.

First of all, why would a twenty-something good looking chinito make patol with a near-fifty lady? If it were not for something nice and crispy, I bet, he wouldn’t have the guts to court, stay up with, and eventually marry her.

When news surfaced that Ai-ai was having a relationship with him, ah, I said to myself, this guy is just one of those professional looking callboys, wanting to squeeze some cash from some ‘ol sugah momma. And I was right. He may not be that literal, professional looking callboy. He's basketball player-turned-car executive, but the way he treated Ai-ai, he's just like one of those gigolos!

While Ai-ai can’t say this in front of the national TV, I dare say, Jed Salas married her because of her money. Period. And for one year and three months, that must have been long time, enough to give the calf the chance to fatten himself so much. And look what he’s got, a nice, expensive car. I didn’t know pigs can drive, too! Lol.

And as for Ai-ai, you have always been my favorite comedy actress, remember that. All my concern and prayers are for you. But please, please, learn from this lesson. Don’t ever, ever depend your happiness on other people, especially if that guy is good looking and youthful. It’s OK to look for a partner in life. As you said, you’re not getting any younger. Your kids are getting older and sooner, they’ll leave your nest and make their own. I tell you, look for someone close your age, or maybe older than you are. Someone as mature, or more mature, as you are. Someone with good intentions. And best of all, look for a guy who puts God first in his life.

Ai-ai delas alas accuses Jed Salang of physical abused

Ai-ai delas Alas breaks down on The Buzz.

Comedy Queen Ai Ai delas Alas broke down before the national TV  on her interview in "The Buzz.” She confirmed her breakup with her husband only one mother after they got married.

In an exclusive interview with host Boy Abunda, delas Alas revealed her husband, businessman Jed Salang, has physically abused her, the very many reason why she decided to call it quits.

Delas Alas revealed that Salang has changed after their Las Vegas wedding last April 3.

“Nung May 2, ang pinag-awayan talaga namin, gusto niya mag-monthsary kami sa casino. Ayaw ko na mag-casino siya kasi hindi naman healthy para sa kanya and hindi rin maganda para sa akin na nakikita ako sa casino. Sabi ko sa kanya doon na lang kami sa bahay or any hotel, huwag lang doon kasi may casino doon,” she revealed.

Their disagreements caused Salang to physically hurt her, the 48-year-old comedienne revealed.

“Hinahagis ako sa kama, sampalan, bunuan. Noong araw na iyon, feeling ko 'yung time na hinila niya ako sa sahig at kinaladkad niya ako, doon ko na-realize na hindi ko na ito kaya. Kasi parang feeling ko kabibigay ko pa lang ng dream niya, binigay ko sa iyo ang makapagpapaligaya sa iyo, binigyan ko siya ng kotse. Nung araw na iyon, kinaladkad mo ako sa sahig. Parang pakiramdam ko, ano pa ba ang magagawa mo sa akin habang ako lahat naibigay ko na sa iyo.”

Pinoy Showbiz News : Ai-ai delas Alas confirms breakup with Jed Salang

Ai-ai delas Alas confirmed break up with Jed Salang.
An emotional Ai-ai delas Alas appeared in The Buzz to confirm her breakup with husband Jed Salang.

Clad in black, Ai-ai revealed that she has parted ways with her basketball player-turned-businessman husband last week. Ai-ai admitted that their relationship has been on the rocks and that she has been hearing rumors of her husband's infidelity right at the start of their relationship. However, she did not have the courage to confront her, let alone confirm the issue for fear of getting hurt.

The 48-year-old star, hailed as the country's comedy queen, revealed her desire for a complete family. Her children are all grown up now and she yearned to have someone beside her now that she's nearing her 50s.

While Ai-ai thought that Jed was the right guy for her, the scathing truth and their one-year-and-three-month relationship only made her realize what the guy wanted from her, she revealed.

In an all-out revelation, Ai-ai said Jed wanted them to celebrate their monthsary at a hotel-casino. Prior to that, she had gifted him with an expensive car. Ai-ai refused Jed's request given that it was not good for him or for her image to be seen in the casino. According to Ai-ai, Jed turned violent. A heated argument ensued. That was when Ai-ai realized that it was time to break up.

Just last April, Ai-ai surprised the entertainment industry after she married Jed, who was 20 years her junior.

Ai-ai also revealed that a third party was also involved in their breakup.

Ai-ai apologized to her children for what had happened and said that they were all enough for her.  Image credit: Philippine Star.

Movie Review: Sisterakas

Sisterakas

This movie review may be late, but I say, better late than never! At P340+ million, Sisterakas (gay lingo for soul sisters) is the country's highest-grossing film and it's pretty interesting to note given that it's been released during the most competitive time in the country's local film industry--the Metro Manila Film Festival. Seeing its sequel already made me laugh. Seeing the film made me laugh and laugh.

59th FAMAS Award

Ang Tanging Ina Mo Wins Best Picture, Albert Martinez Best Director; Ai-Ai delas Alas and John Lloyd Cruz Snag Top Acting Prizes.




The Filipino Academy for Movie Arts and Sciences (FAMAS) goes for comedy this year, with Ang Tanging Ina Mo grabbing the Best Picture honors in the 59th FAMAS Awards. The third series of the Tanging Ina Installment also won the same feat in the 2010 Metro Manila Film Festival and Star Awards for Movies. The film was directed by Wenn Derramas and produced by Star Cinema.


Comedy Queen Ai-Ai delas Alas became one of the only three actresses to win the most coveted Best Actress trophy for comedy, after her turn in Ang Tanging Ina Mo. The two previous winners for comedy roles were Judy Ann Santos, who won for Kasal, Kasali, Kasalo (2006), and Ms. Gloria Romero, who won for Dalagang Ilokana (1954). She bested out past best actress winners Lorna Tolentino and Dawn Zulueta and fellow nominees Bea Alonzo and Jennylyn Mercado, who earned nods for dramatic performances. 


John Lloyd Cruz won his second FAMAS and first Best Actor trophy for Miss You Like Crazy, where he played opposite fellow nominee Bea Alonzo. He had earlier won Best Supporting Actor as Aga Muhlach's younger brother in Dubai (2003). 


Meanwhile, Albert Martinez won Best Director for Rosario. This was his first directorial debut and the film competed in last year's MMFF, where he and the film were the leading favorites for the best director and best film awards, although the feat went to Wenn Derramas and Ang Tanging Ina Mo, respectively


Eugene Domingo and Allen Dizon won the best supporting actor and actress awards, respectively. Domingo earned the trophy for her role as the feisty lawyer whose soul switched with Angelica Panganiban in the summer blockbuster Here Comes the Bride. Meanwhile, Dizon scooped his fourth FAMAS trophy and second award for best supporting actor for his turn in the indi flick, Sigwa. He has won best actor for Paupahan (2008) and Dukot (2009) and best supporting actor for Twilight Dancers (2006).


Meanwhile, child stars Zyriel Manabat and Maliksi Morales were awarded best child performers. Manabat won for her role as Ai-ai delas Alas' grand daughter in Ang Tanging Ina Mo, while Morales won for portraying Kris Aquino's son in the horror flick, Dalaw. 

The 59th Annual FAMAS Awards Night was held December 10 at the National Commission for Culture and the Arts (NCCA) Theater.


Personal Note:


It's sad to note that Asia's oldest film award giving body has gone to oblivion. In the 50s and 60s, when the FAMAS was the only award giving body in the Orient, the awards night is the most glittering event in the local film industry and all the stars emerged to witness the most memorable moment of the year. Sadly, the same cannot be said these days. Since the FAMAS split into two factions in the recent decade, there's seems to be no stopping from the organizing from plunging into decline, and even the winners has been put to contention of whether or not they are worthy of receiving the prize.  Something's ought to be done here. FAMAS is not just your ordinary award giving body. It's a part of the Philippine cinema's history and literally, the local showbusiness grew with FAMAS. 


Even an actor proclaimed to be the year's best wouldn't care, because FAMAS has become insignificant these days. Once, a performer's mettle as an effective actor is measured by the award he's won. But today, nobody cares because it's importance as a significant recognition has faltered through the recent years. Even so, a grand slam feat would never be complete with without this golden statuette of prime significance in Philippine movies.
