I truly apologize for the 48 or so hours that this blog has been down. I wasn’t monitoring my stats, and I was unprepared when the traffic suddenly spiked. I apologize for whatever inconvenience this may have caused you. I will do my best to prevent this from happening in the future.

It seems that the pinoy blogosphere has united under a common hatred for one Malu Fernandez, a self-proclaimed “diva” who, by her own admission, needs 17 kg of makeup and accessories to look remotely human.
