In a Facebook post, Herlene shared a video posted by Pageantry Fanatics which showed the first time she joked about joining Bb. Pilipinas in August 2019.
“Alam mo ba, Wil, sasali ako ng Bb. Pilipinas. Magpapatalino lang ako kaunti,” she said during an episode of Wowowin; drawing laughter from the crowd.

Actor and Quezon City 1st District Rep. Arjo Atayde admitted that his wedding proposal to fiancée Maine Mendoza was more than a year in the making.
In an interview with Kapamilya entertainment reporter MJ Felipe, Arjo said he is happy that the proposal happened at the right time.
“I have been planning [for] more than a year but I’m grateful it happened at the right time so I just waited for everything kasi may mga nangyari and everything,” Arjo said.
However, he did not give more details about how it happened, but they will share the story with everyone later.
Asked if they will get married soon or if it will be a long engagement for them, Arjo said he will let Maine decide. “You know for me that’s for her to answer. That’s Maine’s decision for now. For me, I’m just here. Whatever she wants, I’m ready,” Arjo said.
“To be honest, I’ve decided even before asking her. Anytime. So it’s just a matter of us talking and this is a big step in our life. It’s another milestone.”
Arjo added that he is grateful to Maine’s parents for being supportive from the very start of their relationship. “The parents of Maine are very loving, very understanding, very giving to me ever since and I’m very thankful.”
Arjo’s mom Sylvia Sanchez also has nothing but kind words for Maine. “Thankful ako kay Arjo kasi sa totoo lang, inakyatan niya ako ng mahal niya, mapapangasawa niya na mabuti, magalang, ma-respeto, at mabuting bata talaga.”
Sylvia’s congratulatory post for the couple touched the hearts of netizens as she told Maine that she will take care and love her like her own daughter.

Actress Sunshine Cruz once again answered netizens asking her to “dress her age.”
Sunshine shared screenshots of some comments on her Facebook post. “What happened to you? Wala ka na sa edad para magpopost ng ganyan,” one said.
“Kasawa rin yung puro ganyan itsura niya. Wala ba sya damit?” another netizen commented.
But for Sunshine, it is not wrong to wear clothes that make her feel pretty, confident, and happy.
“Sa mga kababaihan at kalalakihan who still believe na may category ayon sa edad ang pananamit, pasensya na po, I will not let any of you control or change the way I am,” aniya.
“I love dressing up, I love wearing my own creations na crochet tops, I enjoy going to the beach with my children so expect to see more of me dito sa aking sariling facebook page.”
She also told those who do not like to see her posting her outfits of the day (OOTDs) to just unfollow her.
“If my posts of my/our clothes bother you, kindly unfollow po for your own peace of mind.”
This is not the first time that Sunshine replied to a netizen commenting about her clothes. Sunshine also calmly answered a netizen months back and said that she does not believe that there is a chart of attire according to age.

“Kailangan po ba ang attire ko like yours para masabing tama ang suot? I don’t think may chart ang attire according to age. Basta happy at confident go lang po! Walang bawal at masama,” she said.
Meanwhile, netizens also backed Sunshine and told her to just keep on doing whatever makes her happy.
“Continue to spread body positivity Ms. Shine! Palaging may masasabi sa atin ang mga tao, kahit ano pa ang gawin mo. Piliin nating lagi kung anong magpapasaya sa atin,” C. Mariz said.
