Kris Aquino: Taking One for the Team
There is such a thing as crass and distasteful tactlessness, and of that we should reign our tongues and learn to govern our statements because words cut deeper than swords indeed. But there are those harmless, snide comments and jokes said in goodwill and in the spirit of friendship that are taken as offensive because of miscommunication. Many relationships have been weighed and measured because of these misunderstandings and the lives of the showbiz elite are no exception.
Kris Aquino is feeling the brunt of Ruffa Gutierrez’s clannish supporters led by her feisty and sharp-tongued mother Anabelle Rama. The overprotective lioness pounced hard and growled as she bared her teeth in defense of her cub, such furious retaliation and whiplash that analysts even dare say that it will have detrimental effects on Noynoy Aquino’s candidacy for President. Now Kris Aquino is scrambling to backpedal as fast as she could for damage control, especially now that the race is heating up and firing on all cylinders. And for the sake of brotherhood as well as friendship, the straightforward and unafraid queen of tactlessness (as many paint and perceive her to be) swallowed her mammoth pride and apologized on national television even if she did nothing wrong aside from joke with a close friend. The nation witnessed a humble Kris Aquino and the people liked what they saw.
It’s all a bad case of miscommunication. Even the strongest of marriages and the most stalwart of couples have been caught and deterred by a few snags because of misinterpreted signals, both in words and actions. Kris did a great job of doing her part so Ruffa must now meet her in the middle and accept her heartfelt and sincere apology. And I must say that Anabelle Rama just blew it out of proportions once again, just as she always does when backing her children up.
