Reports have surfaced that Aiko Melendez has been declared "unwanted" in the province of Bulacan for allegedly masterminding a gay smear campaign against her ex-boyfriend, Mayor Patrick Meneses.

According to the alleged report, 21 local officials in the province have signed the resolution declaring Melendez a "persona nan grata."  for  allegedly insinuating that the two public officials of the province were lovers.

THE TRUTH OF THE MATTER.

San Ildefonso Mayor Paula Carla Galvez-Tan, the author of the controversial Resolution No. 03-2011, clarified that she did not directly state or singled out Aiko Melendez in the undertaking. Contrary to the speculations, the signed motion was made for those who "will-be-named-soon" people that started the smear campaign against the two Mayors.

Roque and Meneses sued Aiko for libel before the Malolos Regional Trial Court along with three other movie writers who purportedly spread the malicious story between the two.

"That's not how i play my game."

Aiko Melendez was both fierce and emotional when she faced TV host Boy Abunda (for the first time today) since the allegations of "masterminding" a " gay demolition job"  have surfaced against her.

Melendez said she blames herself for choosing not to speak about the issue that involves her and ex-boyfriend for three years and a half, Bulacan, Bulacan Mayor, Patrick Meneses.

"Sinisisi ko sarili ko, eto ba ung kapalit ng pananahimik ko? na pagbibintangan niyo ako, na aakusahan ako ng isang bagay na hindi ko ginawa" 

The 35-year old Aiko admitted she got hurt about the recent turn of events - the Mayor's sudden reaction to file a case in court against her for purportedly fabricating malicious stories.

When asked if she denies any involvement in the issue, Melendez firmly reiterated, "Yes i deny it, mata sa mata, puso sa puso, dinedeny ko yan dahil ako, that's not how i play my game"

Aiko further added, "Kung hindi naman po siya nagpainterview, hindi malalaman ng tao kung ano talaga ang nangyayari sa amin."

Melendez was referring to the Mayor's Paparazzi TV interview last week with Cristy Fermin. In the said program, Fermin handed to Patrick an envelope that contains Aiko's Twitter transcript with a friend, allegedly fabricating malicious script to destroy Meneses' reputation.

"Asan ung 3 taon na pinagsamahan namin na parang balewala tinapon lang niya sa bintana, naniwala siya sa ibang bagay na wala man lang basehan?"

"Nung inabot lang po sa kanya ung envelope, in two seconds di pa niya nababasa, sinabi niya isu-sue na niya ako," continued Melendez, who look quite dismayed as she herself could not believe that the rift between her and Meneses would end in court.

Abunda has also asked Aiko if if she'll fight for the cases that were brought against her.
Melendez firmly replied, "...dahil sa trauma na ibinibigay nila sa mga anak ko, ipaglalaban ko hanggang sa huling centavo na meron ako sa bulsa ko ngayon...gagawin ko  ito para sa mga anak ko"

Amidst all the controversy, Aiko Melendez still hopes that everything will be back to normal, 

"I would just hope and pray that Patrick would think and be enlightened na sa tatlong taon namin at kalahati nag-sama, kilala niya ang pagkatao ko."

Manila, Philippines.
The rift between former lovers,  Aiko Melendez and Patrick Meneses has now gone too far; while the whole nation is currently feasting on the issue, a libel case has been filed yesterday and soon will be heard in court.

Which leave us with the question, how did this showbiz "circus" start?

In his conversation with PEP, Mayor Patrick Meneses said that he was surprised when in the middle of TV5 Paparazzi's dialogue,  host Cristy Fermin showed him a Twitter transcript - an alleged direct message conversation between Aiko Melendez and his reporter friend.

The Mayor, who was held "hostage" in an uncomfortable TV interview that has been televised nationwide,  told Roldan Castro, "Nag-guest ako (in Paparazzi) para sabihing okey kami, We respect each other dahil hindi na rin naman siya (Aiko) nagsasalita kahit wala na kaming communication."

Meneses may interpret Fermin's act as something that was done to help him, but if you'll look closely - the good mayor's would-be responses was kind of "abused" too in the show, given that Patrick got enraged about what he saw, he was left with no choice but to answer and clear his name to Fermin's tabloid-like "unbecoming and vulgar" exposes. 

Patrick further told Castro, "No wonder kaya pala ako gustong i-guest, sabi niya (Fermin), Mayor, mag guest ka lang, please."

Say Cristy Fermin was true to his intentions to help the Mayor, she could have spoken to him in private and spare his "showbiz son" another shame and mockery from the viewing public. 

If there's one person that was made to look bad out of the issue,  it was the alleged mastermind, Aiko Melendez.

She has made her decision to keep mum about the controversy since in the first place, the burden of proof lies in Meneses and Roque's camp.

On the other hand, Patrick has all the right in the world to sue anyone that will destroy his integrity and reputation. His "damage control" to save his image when he filed a case against Aiko Melendez is deemed understandable. 

Whether or not the Mayor's allegations are true - it's the impartial court who'll decide if Melendez indeed fabricated malicious stories against his ex-boyfriend.

Circumstances have its own tricky way of getting people's lives miserable, it will spare no one -even actors and politicians.

One day you're sweethearts, you parted ways as friends...then comes one Sunday afternoon that you find out the "truth" in an interview and suddenly, in an instant, you became enemies with your ex - a special thanks to Cristy Fermin's unparalleled goodwill and utmost concern.

Meneses sued his ex-girlfriend for violation of the Revised Penal Code of the Philippines Article 353 while  Roque filed a libel case against Melendez and 3 other movie writers, seeking P5,000,000 pesos in damages. 

Meanwhile, the two politicians rumored to be "lovers" got the support of their colleagues with regard to their case. Today, a resolution has been filed declaring the person who spread the "malicious lies" against Meneses and Roque a persona nan grata. The resolution was supported by the 21 mayors from the province of  Bulacan.

In her first exclusive TV interview with ABS-CBN's SNN, Aiko said that it's not in her character to invent stories about other people, especially if it's about her ex boyfriend.

“...hindi ko personality kasing manira. Kasi una sa lahat kung maninira ako ng kapwa ko, bakit nga ako tahimik ‘di ba?”

She also added that she'll speak about the issue when the right time comes.

“Ayaw ko na sigurong mag-comment. Mabuti na sigurong manatili akong tahimik...I’d like to keep it that way hanggang hindi naman talaga kailangang magsalita"

After Bulacan, Bulacan Mayor Patrick Meneses'  controversial Sunday interview with Cristy Fermin in Paparazzi, PEP's Roldan Castro has gotten the chance to interview him to clear and sort some things out.

The good mayor who is a "self" confessed "babaero" during his La Salle days,  admitted that he was surprised when he saw the transcript, the Fermin-obtained copy of the alleged conversation of Aiko Melendez and her gay reporter friend.

Meneses says he and Aiko had been in a relationship for almost three years and a half, and he was shocked that her ex-girlfriend would go that far to fabricate malicious "gay" lies against him.

"Sobrang imbento eh, lalo na ung genital warts, nagpapahiran, may roomboy pa silang script eh..Definitely, dadalhin ko ito sa korte...Sa korte na lang kame mag-uusap ni Aiko"

Aiko Melendez has denied all the allegations.

How Fermin has gotten possession of the supposedly "private and personal" copy of the alleged Twitter direct messages (transcript) between Aiko and her gay reporter friend - now that feat is phenomenal.

Look at What Cristy Fermin Has Done with Mayor Patrick Meneses and Aiko Melendez "Smear Campaign" Issue

"I am confident with my sexuality"

In an interview with TV 5's Papparazi yesterday, Bulacan, Bulacan Mayor Patrick Meneses sat down with Cristy Fermin to clear out his "manhood" amidst tabloid blind items and rumors that question his sexuality - and he's considering legal actions to set the issues "straight"

Fermin, the witty host that she is, started to accelerate the interview by saying... "Mayor, kasi kakambiyo ako..." Okay- you see that is the key to make a good on-cam conversation running.

The issue? Meneses cries foul against his ex-girlfriend Aiko Melendez and an unnamed reporter who allegedly have concocted a dirty smear campaign against him. The "script" that was allegedly sent to other reporters has involved a story about gay hook-up, genital warts, medicine in cotton buds, and rubbing of those things to the politician's private part. GROSS

Aiko Melendez and Patrick Menses, former lovers.

Having obtained a copy of Melendez' alleged Twitter direct messages with her gay reporter friend, Fermin fired away her "vulgar" questions while the good mayor answered sincerely- playing angelic and a bit fierce at the same time. Well, he looks kind to me though.

When Cristy asked him how did he feel about the recent turn of events, Meneses replied, "Sa totoo po Nay, I'm in awe. Gulat na gulat po ako"
