‘The pilot episode was shot for three days, parang pelikula ang treatment, with car chase at may speedboat pa and helicopter – Sen. Bong Revilla’
LANI MERCADO
BONG Revilla’s new show, the action-comedy, “Walang Matigas na Pulis sa Matinik na Misis,” will start airing on June 4, replacing the GMA talent search, “The Clash,” which ends on May 28.
“Talagang ginastusan ng GMA ang show at hindi tinipid,” says the senator. “The pilot episode was shot for three days, parang pelikula ang treatment, with car chase at may speedboat pa and helicopter. It’s a reboot of a movie I did with my wife, Lani Mercado, in 1994 that was such a big hit it even had a sequel in 1997.”
So how is Beauty as his termagant wife in the show? “Lani chose her at napakagaling ni Beauty. We are all having fun on the set, with Max Collins as the girl na pinagseselosan ni Beauty. Tawanan lang kami nang tawanan.”
How about a movie? “We’re thinking of joining the Metro Manila Film Festival in December.
Ang dami kasing nagre-request since wala silang trabaho, from crew to actors and stuntmen. Sana nga, matuloy kami to help them.”
As a senator, Bong is proud to shepherd the passage of another important bill, which makes permanent the Teaching Supplies Allowance for Public School Teacher, during the deliberation at the chamber’s plenary session on May 10.
“Ang teachers kasi, sa halip na gastusin nila ‘yung kanilang sahod para sa pamilya nila, nag-aabono pa sila para sa pambili ng mga chalk, ballpen, bond paper, at pagbili ng load lalong-lalo during the time of the pandemic,” says Bong, who is the chairperson of the Senate Committee on Civil Service, Government Reorganization and Professional Regulation raised.

Lolit Solis just celebrated her birthday and Sen. Bong Revilla and his wife, Congresswoman Lani Mercado, hosted an intimate lunch for her. This is quite a special birthday for Lolit as she is now on her 10th month of having dialysis two times a week.
“The past year has given me a lot of realizations,” she says. “Una kong naramdaman, natakot ako. Kasi bawat session ng dialysis, four hours. May time na gusto ko ng tigilan.
Para ano pa? Feeling ko, nagawa ko naman na lahat ng gusto kong gawin. Been there, done that na.”
Does she have any regrets?
“Wala. Fulfilled naman ako sa buhay ko. Ano pa ba naman ang gugustuhin ko? Mula sa sobrang kahirapan, bumuti ang buhay namin ng family ko, ang dami kong natanggap na blessings mula kay Lord. Never kong naisip maging TV host, and yet, binigay sa’kin, naging host ako ng shows like ‘Scoop’ and ‘Star Talk’.”
Her two daughters, Sneezy and Sloopy, now both live in the US. “Gusto nila akong magpunta roon, pero ayoko ng magbiyahe. Tinago ko na nga passport ko. Lahat ng bilin ko, nasabi ko na. Ayoko ng wake, gusto ko i-cremate agad. Ang wino-worry ko lang, ‘yung alaga kong 12 na aso. Iniisip ko, ano kaya mangyayari sa kanila kapag nawala na ako?
Baka pagsisipain na lang sila ng ibang tao.”
Lolita Solis started her career as a movie writer in 1964. “Friend ko si Douglas Quijano at isinasama ako. Ang ayaw na ayaw ako sa akin noon, si Ethel Ramos. Siya ang president ng PMPC noon at sabi niya sa ibang members huwag lalapit sa akin kasi I’m an embarrassment daw sa writing profession. Noon pa, maldita na ako. Kasi nanghihingi ako ng pamasahe sa mga producer at artista. Sa press con, nagbabalot ako ng mga pagkain.”
So what is her birthday wish?
“Mawala na sana lahat ng mga sakit na nararamdaman ko. Kasi, pag gising ko pa lang sa umaga, masakit na ang joints ko, mga buto-buto at laman-laman ko. Nakakairita.”

Rico Barrera was discovered in the very first Pinoy Big Brother in 2005 when he was only 20 years old. He has since played a lot of supporting roles, so he is glad he is now the main leading man in the new sex-drama, “Kabayo,” where is paired with newcomer Julia Victoria.
“Bale seven years na kaming magkasama rito ng partner kong si Julia. Sa story, she comes from a rich family in Tacloban and I work for her brother, si Ping Medina as Max. Palaging may pressure sa akin, sa work ang brother niya ang pume-pressure sa akin, and at home naman, kay Julia, kasi she’s very sexually active at ang feeling ko nga, she treats me lang as her boy toy.”
Julia becomes even more demanding in bed and wants more excitement. “Naging parang kabayo ako rito, a workhorse na pinagtatrabaho sa office ni Ping at pagdating sa bahay, pinagtatrabaho rin ni Julia sa kama. Sa office, lagi akong may hinahabol na deadline. Kayod nang kayod. Sa bahay naman, kayod pa rin, kasi lagi kong iniisip kung paano ko masa-satisfy si Julia sa mga demands niya sa akin sa kama. I am now 38 years old at sabi nila, may ilalaban pa naman, I can still go sexy raw, so heto, I’m doing sexy bed scenes in ‘Kabayo’.”
So how far did he go in the movie? “Naku, very far. I have bed scenes na threesome kami nina Julia Victoria and Apple Castro. Tapos we got Angelo Ilagan to join us and it turns out bisexual siya at gusto niya rin akong maka-sex. Wild ang movie at lahat ng mga kasama ko, very cooperative, so abangan nyo sa Vivamax when it starts streaming on May 26.”
