Netizens have been wondering whether Dani Barretto and Alex Gonzaga have ended their friendship.
This is after the latter received backlash for smearing cake frosting on a waiter’s face at her birthday celebration.
The question stems from Ogie Diaz’s latest “Showbiz Now Na” vlog on YouTube.
In the vlog featuring Mama Loi, Tita Jegs, and Dyosa Pockoh, Diaz said that his source revealed to him that Barreto wasn’t invited to Alex’s birthday. Instead, her husband Xavi Panlilio was the DJ for the celebration.
“…hindi siya imbitado!” Diaz said.
“Yun nga ang sabi sa akin ng aking source, ang invited talaga doon ay ‘yung asawa ni Dani Barretto na nagdi-DJ doon.”
Diaz recalled that Barretto was the one who took the video of the cake incident and then uploaded it to her IG stories. She deleted it right after.
Diaz also revealed that the actress was indeed drunk that night in contrast to“So, sinamahan niya ‘yung asawa niya ro’n…at siyempre sa katuwaan ni Dani Barretto di ba, nahuli niya na ginanu’n ‘yung cake! At siyempre in-IG stories na at dinelete rin ni Dani Barretto.” Diaz explained, “Kaya si Dani Barretto, nag-iiyak dahil ito nga binomba ng binomba si Alex Gonzaga sa social media. Inokray ng inokray dahil nga doon na napaka-sagrado pala ng birthday na walang nagko-cover dahil nagwawala nga ‘yung ibang mga bisita dahil doon nga lang sila nakakakilos na alam mong walang kamera na lahat magkaka-close, di ba?” He added, “Meron pang time nga na si Alex ay umakyat pa ng mesa, naga-ano (sumasayaw) sobrang happy that night si Alex kaya nga nu’ng hihipan na niya ‘yung cake kung mapapansin mo, tipsing-tipsy si Alex,”kuwento ni Ogie base rin sa mga video na ipinakita..tipsy, ibig sabihin lasing talaga siya.”
The entertainment vlogger shared, “Yun ang sabi. Kahit nga si DJ MO Twister di ba (ipinakita ang Tweet) feeling niya drunk si Alex. Drunk, stupid narcissist.”
The main guests at Alex’s were her family and some relatives and close friends like Gerald Anderson, Julia Barretto, Bayani Agbayani, Zeinab Harake, Donnalyn Bartolome, and vloggers, according to Ogie’s story.
Mama Loi and Ogie also discussed how Kris Lawrence defended Alex, saying that it’s normal to smear someone with cake at parties.
“Opinyon mo ‘yan Kris Lawrence kapag malalim ang pagkakaibigan n’yo maiintindihan. Ito kasi sa waiter o sa server na ginanu’n parang na-awkward talaga ‘yung mukha nu’ng waiter para siyang napahiya! Sana maintindihan mo ‘yun,” Diaz said.
“… kong intindihin si Alex kasi minsan lang uminom lalo’t birthday niya. Umiyak din sa ilang friends itong si Alex Gonzaga dahil hindi naman daw niya intensyon na saktan ‘yung damdamin ng waiter. Talagang happy lang siya that night, Diaz said.
“Kaya lang ang dami-dami na, sunud-sunod na ‘yung pambabash kay Alex tapos nadamay pa sina Mommy Pinty at saka si Daddy Bonoy na ano raw klaseng pagpapalaki ang ginawa nina mommy at ni daddy doon sa kanyang mga anak lalo na raw kay Alex. Imaginin mo ‘yan?…ang nakakaloka, hinusgahan si Alex doon sa video na napanood lang nila pero sa mga kaibigang naroroon para sa kanila, happy lang si Alex, eh.”
Alex Gonzaga’s attitude has been called regrettable by fellow celebrities whom she had worked with in the past.
