I totally disagree with PR peeps who say that Caloy needs a PR manager to script | edit his statements and get Chloey to exit frame muna. Biglang bawal to be honest and candid? Mas mabuting itago sa publiko ang alitan ng mag-ina at magpaka-plastic na lang? But he’s not some politician who needs to sell himself, or some capitalist who needs to sell his goods, to a doubting and PR-gullible public. Caloy doesn’t need selling. Bentang benta na siya just by being the Olympic champion that he is. Walang labis, walang kulang.
At doon sa nagsasabing si Chloey lang ang winner sa mother-son brouhaha… it’s so not true. Si Caloy ang Winner. Of two Olympic Golds — beat that before you dare tell him how to live his life! And Winner din siya for the unabashed thanks to the girlfriend who saw him through his quest for Gold through thick and thin. Good for him, na kinaya niya to give credit where it is due, rather than pander to conservatives who insist that the mother should always come first, no matter what, or something like that. Good of Caloy. May his tribe increase.
