^siguro naman Jollibee franchise meron na din siya bilang matagal na din siyang endorser nun.

Ayun naman pala may mga business na kahit papaano, baka naman nakapangalan sa mga kapatid pa or sa parents niya. Ang kanila sa kanila yung para kay Sarah sa kanila pa din.

[plumpolka]

ohh, nahuli pala ng paras boys yung mama nila na may ibang lalaki. traumatic nga yun. they look up to her tapos ganon. akala ko naghiwalay lang sila ni benj tapos imbis na tulungan ngyaon ng stepmom nila na magreconcile, bine-brainwash pa. haha, sabagay not my period kaya di ko alam. hahahah :p

grabe yung nagcomment sa anak ni jinkee. (nakita ko lang sa fb)
ang hirap kasi sa pinoy, porket alam na mayaman tao, kailangan lahat ng pera idonate agad. we dont have the right to dictate kung paano nya gusto gastusin pera nya na pinaghirapan nila. not because she's rich, pwede na sabihin na 'uy mag donate ka naman'. kasi kahit 10k lang sweldo mo kung gusto mo tumulong sa kapwa, maski 500 i-dodonate mo. nakakairita mga ganong tao. laki ng inggit!

Kawawa naman pala talaga si Sarah G., nakakapagod ginagawa niyang mga concert tour tapos filming pa ng movie. Baka maapektuhan na rin health niya. Sana nga her family will give her a break. Baka kasi ang dami pa naka-asa sa kanya financially, ano ba yan     

[innocent_beauty]

I think sarah has depression when you said  "you feel empty" yan ang isang sign, I hope she get Dr.  help kc hindi biro ang depression, seeing professional is not mean you need meds etc.. ,meron dun how to cope up, techniques of relaxation etc.

[mysterioza_me]

Re Pacquiao vs mga tao na nagsasabing mamigay naman sila ng tulong sa mahihirap - ang hirap din talaga if san mo ilulugar ang sarili mo kadalasan. Kapag nagdisplay ka ng wealth sasabihin sana tumulong naman sa mahihirap kesa magdisplay lang ng yaman - take note tahimik kasi silang tumutulong. Kapag naman tumulong ka like Gretchen Barretto i-question naman nila ang motibo ng pagtulong kasi pinopost pa. Pake ba natin kung saan nila gusto gamitin pera nila e pinaghirapan nila yun?! Lalo na yung may Manny na nagpapabugbog muna bago kumita. Try nga nila pabugbog ewan ko lang if maipamigay nila yung pera nila.

[littlekinselle]

^ Meron silang restaurant sis, then may Starbucks franchise din. Not sure kung meron pang iba.

wow buti naman may resto sila naipundar alam ko nga may pinag aral si Sarah na kapatid niya nag culinary sa paris. baka un kapatid niya chef dun.. siguro jollibee ang nafranchise nila kasi yun starbuck is owned by tantoco ng rustans exclusively lang saknila yun..
 
di kaya nag propose na si matteo kay sarah yun magulang lang ni sarah ang ayaw na magpakasal siya?. hmmm

[airish_2]

^yung Tantoco ang nagpapafranchise dito sa Pinas bale sila kasi nagdala pero hindi exclusive for them. Kay Sarah G. Yung starbucks sa mismong harap ng exclusive subd. Kung saan una silang nakita ni Mateo na magkaholding hands while walking inside. Sa may Mindanao ave. QC.

[littlekinselle]

^ ay talaga?? wow  naman ganon kalaki net worth ni sarah. kaya siguro ayaw pa ng parents niya magpakasal siya.

[secretlove]

Feeling ko hindi naman siguro mainly pamilya niya ang problema kung bat sya burned-out. Matagal din naman sya nagpahinga at di rin sya masyadong visible these days. Kaya feeling ko it's more than the work load, siguro di rin ganun kasmooth-sailing relasyon nila ni Matteo, may ganun akong vibe na nararamdaman e. Yung may pagkashowbiz si guy, I hope I'm wrong though. Hindi rin siguro siya ganun kasecure sa love ni Matteo kaya di rin niya mailaban nang all-out talaga.

[Ghell06]

May nabasa nga ako sabi daw nasa OOTC sila kase may event ata nun kasama sila Sarah and Toni, then yung iba kasama nila shopping daw ng shooping si Sarah daw hindi bumibili. Tapos si Toni daw tumawag kay Mommy Pinty, iyak daw ng iyak kase nagtethank you kase pinagamit sa kanya yung credit card nya.

[secretlove]

ohh, nahuli pala ng paras boys yung mama nila na may ibang lalaki. traumatic nga yun. they look up to her tapos ganon. akala ko naghiwalay lang sila ni benj tapos imbis na tulungan ngyaon ng stepmom nila na magreconcile, bine-brainwash pa. haha, sabagay not my period kaya di ko alam. hahahah :p

Wala naman atang katotohanan to, para lang syang urban legend. Parang ang issue lang n Kobe dati sa mama niya e dating drug addict or something tapos laging may 'eksena' kapag pinupuntahan sila sa bahay at school, siguro dahil nilalayo nga. Whatever, sila lang nakakaalam ng katotohanan. Happy na lang for them kase finally ok na sila na dati e parang imposibleng mangyari.

[yumi03]

I also think hindi sa parents/family ang problema ni SG. These past years, her parents have been lenient na with her. Ilang beses na ba nagtravel si Sarah to be with Matteo sa Cebu and this past Holy Week lang she was with him and his family sa isang resort. With finances din, hindi na din yata mahigpit sa kanya parents nya. She purchased a Lexus SUV for herself a couple of years ago and she's been seen shopping expensive stuff na according to some ashmatt/popsters ay regalo nya kay Matteo.

I think she was just really tired sa schedule ng concert tour nya. She had a concert the night before in San Francisco which finished late and then had to fly to Las Vegas at 4am the next morning and then go straight to rehearsals and had the concert the same day. Tired from her concert plus with sleep plus jet-lagged so physically exhausted talaga. Plus hindi nakarecover yung voice nya kaya paos na sya sa concert nya sa Las Vegas. She's a perfectionist too at laging gusto ibigay sa audience yung money's worth nila so pressure sa sarili nya aside from pressure from other people's expectations kaya bumigay na sya at naging emotional. Kaya sorry sya ng sorry sa audience and sa concert producers because she felt that she failed them.

Lastly, if she really has depression - which I doubt she has but who knows; kahit gaano pa ka-supportive and loving ang lahat sa paligid nya she would still feel empty and alone because it's an illness.


RE: investments alam ko madami din silang biniling properties. Sa Mindanao Ave. lang blocks of lots daw ang binili nila. They also have properties in Tanay where they have an organic farm.

[marge070407]

Dati may interview yung Papa niya at si Mommy Divine. Ang sabi ni mommy divine yung lalaki daw na nilaan ni God para kay Sarah ay Mommy Divine daw ang nakakaalam dahil siya daw ang ina. Kaloka!

[Gaysha]

^^So, isnt it a fault of someone to schedule na mala Amazing Race yung concert dates like that? Anyway, alam ko na ang sabi sa Pep it was Sarah's.  Hugas kamay pa ang Viva and Nanay ni Sarah and they chose to "blame" her instead pagkatapos nilang pagkakitaan. Jeez.

Di ba nga yung father ni Sarah was robbed or shot in the parking lot of ABS-CBN dati? Parang networking chuchu. It was a puzzle why in ABS-CBN parking pa of all places and Sarah and family kept quiet about it. 

And let's not also forget na pinag matapobrehan nung nanay ni Sarah yung mga dating nanligaw sa anak nya at kaya lang pumayag yung nanay nya kay M dahil sa sabi ay mayaman din pala to at nakatira sa Ayala Alabang (homes go for 50-200M).

Naalala ko to. If i remember correctly sa yes magazine ko nabasa to... Napa wtf na lang ako sa statements ng mom ni sarah, as in parang may sapi, sobrang weird.

1. I think all of them are to blame. VIVA for making that schedule and Sarah's parents and even Sarah for agreeing with the schedule.

2. Her father was almost kidnapped in ABS ACBN parking lot. Some guy tried to kidnap her father supposedly to ask for ransom. The guy posed as someone from a company Sarah is endorsing. Her family has never had any money matter issue. Aside from hearsays and rumors from other people about their handling of Sarah's income, they never had any issue with other people about money.

3. I never understood how anyone would believe the matapobre issue and kaya pumayag kay Matteo dahil mayaman. I mean, yes galing sa mayaman na family si Matteo pero kung individual net worth ang pag uusapan obviously mas malaki net worth ni Sarah. I do agree na masyado mahigpit and magulang ni Sarah when it comes to men in her life but if you look at her history with men (Rayver and Gerald) her parents were vindicated in the end because of what they did to Sarah.

As a fan of Sarah's who has followed here since the beginning of her career, I think masyado lang na-villify ang parent nya dahil wala silang masamang issue na mabato kay Sarah. Yes, some of the issues might be true especially their over-protectiveness. But Sarah is her own person and if she really hates what her parents are doing to her then at her age I think she SHOULD be able to tell them to take a hike if she wants to. I am not saying her parents are perfect, but I'm just saying we shouldn't put all the blame on them. Like some sisses here said, If all these issues with her parents are true then Sarah is also to blame because she can't stand for herself. I honestly don't think it's the case because like I said in my previous post, I have seen the changes in Sarah's lifestyle and how much her parents have loosened their grasp on her. Maybe it's true that they don't like Matteo, but maybe they have their reasons.

I mentioned that Sarah went with Matteo's family vacation during Holy Week. Matteo had an interview where he was asked if he asked Sarah's parents' permission and he said it was Sarah herself who asked her parents. I just think he should have asked them himself as her boyfriend. Maybe that's why Sarah's parents don't like Matteo, maybe they think he doesn't have the courage to face them himself.

To be honest I think Sarah really is ready to settle down, but maybe Matteo isn't. Why do people go straight to blame her parents? Sarah has been vocal about wanting to settle down even though she backtrack sometimes. Whenever Matteo is asked, however, the guy can never give a straight answer. I do like Matteo for Sarah though and as a fan, I really want Sarah to be happy.

Sorry for this long post. lol

^All you said about Matteo, and Sarah, and her mother, are hearsays too or your own formed opinion based on writeups, socmed. So, lahat tayo nakikitsismis lang. Walang right or wrong sa mga napost dito. So, I think it's a bit strong to say na 'you don't understand how "some people don't understand' the matapobre issue is not true". Something to that effect ang ini-imply ng post.  Contradicting on what you said, what if mayaman din family nina Rayver and Gerald and they're also earning good, not on the same level nga lang ni Sarah, will her mother not be in favor of Rayver or Gerald too? The point is, suma total, kaya nagustuhan ng mother ni Sarah na makipag relationship si Sarah kay Matteo is dahil sa mayaman din family nya and he is also earning well, leading man pa nga sya minsan sa ibang projects.

Hi sis, I'm not saying that I'm right and everybody else is wrong. I said I don't understand because I really don't. That doesn't mean I'm right but it also doesn't mean I'm wrong. I agree, we all are just speculating. That's why I always say "I think" aside from the kidnapping issue which is what actually happened as opposed to what you believe/knew.

Regarding Rayver and Gerald, well her mother said she heard some of Rayver's cousins talking about him hitting jackpot with Sarah (This was in Yes magazine, yung issue nila Rayver-Christine-Sarah na to be honest kumulo din dugo ko sa nanay ni Sarah) then Rayver cheated on Sarah. With Gerald, her parents actually allowed him into their home to court Sarah and I THINK he actually earns more than Matteo. Nagka issue lang naman nung huminto si Gerald sa pagligaw kay Sarah eh. Again, as per Sarah sila lang nakakaalam ng totoo at according to her in one interview, nanginginig sya sa galit dahil magulang nya ang sinisi sa pagtigil ni Gerald manligaw.

Again, we are all just speculating and none of us knows the truth. I'm just saying na her parents are the easiest targets people choose to blame but we cannot just put all the blame on them. I'm just giving them the benefit of the doubt which people don't seem willing to give and just go straight to judging. Kaya nga pati si Sarah mismo sinasabi kong to blame din kung sakaling totoo lahat ng issue about her parents eh. At the end of the day kay Sarah pa din ang final decision sa buhay nya. Whether she choose to stand by her own decisions or sumunod lang sya sa parents nya. That's my point and that's just for me. Sini-share ko lang opinion ko but I'm not imposing it on anyone.

[kvandenhaak]

Bago pa lang ata si Sarah rumor na ang parents nya especially ang mother. Sabi nila pag me usok me apoy. Besides, chismis na hindi mamatay matay 15 years later or so. I agree na tama naman ang parents ni Sarah dun sa guys that were linked to her before. But that is part of the problem. Sarah never experienced to choose for herself and experienced life herself. Of course bilang magulang, we would want to shield our kids from harm and heartaches. But you also deprived them of learning life themselves. May balak ba silang mabuhay ng forever so they can look after her? If they stop helicopter parenting a 28-year old! The fact that she has to say that she feels empty and tired in public means she is going through something serious. And the people around her who really cares about her should step in before it's too late!

[KVsWahmmy]

To be fair to Sarah's parents, she won't stay THE Sarah Geronimo for all these years without the help of their guidance. Aminin man natin o hindi, our parents are a very significant factor in ensuring we tread a straight and steady path.

BUT, I think they may have pressured Sarah so much, to the point na takot si Sarah to do things on her own, decide things for herself, and she finds it her sole, very important purpose is to make sure her family's finances are ALWAYS stable for years and years to come.

And then there's Viva of course, who really do work their most in-demand artists ng todo-todo.  

And then there's the pressure from fans also na hindi sya pwedeng magkamali, na kailangan perpekto sya.  The overall kind of pressure Sarah is getting, is the kind you wouldn't even wish for your worst enemy.

To be fair din pala kay Matteo - Sarah only started doing things 'against' her parents (against meaning not her usual, pero not necessarily 'mali'), when she was with Matteo na. She traveled more, she hobnobbed with other artists more, she tried stuff she didn't before - she started experiencing life kahit papaano. The kind of 'normal life' other artists still get - and she doesn't. I actually like it that sinabi ni Matteo na si Sarah mismo ang nagpaalam sa parents nya - kasi sino ba dapat talaga? Di ba si Sarah naman? It also means he's not the type na titiklop sa kanila just to 'please' them. He stands his ground.
