The Caloy-Angela Yulo tiff in a nutshell: A “minor” in a poor family gives his parent unfettered access to his bank account once he started making money. To no one’s surprise, maraming withdrawal. Nagkaroon ng falling out, made worse by the mom disliking yung girlfriend (who she sees as a gold digger) and someone he met only because she slid into his DMs when he was already a star.

It’s a tale as old as time and literally the story of most high earners in a poverty-stricken family. Not sure why people are reacting to it like personally affected sila or alam nila saan napunta yung pera, and that they’re celebrating the mom being cut off the winnings.

Personally, I’m more bothered by how we treat our Olympians. The road to the Olympics is hard, iilan lang nakakapunta dun. Manalo matalo they should be well-funded and compensated. Incentive na rin yan for more kids to get into other sports. But we only seem to care pag nanalo na sila ng gold medal. EJ Obiena, Hidilyn Diaz, Carlos Yulo, lahat sila kailangan dumiskarte sa training. Pati nga si Alex Eala (not an Olympian but related) pinabayaan, pero since mayaman siya she had the luxury to tell the government “fuck you” nung saka sila nagpapansin kung kailan nananalo na.
