Thanks for posting. Seems half-true or half-real.

The B.I.R. is a gov't organization. But the way the
press conference was done and the way some of the words
the officials were saying were like the words of someone
who think they know something anout her personally.

And I'm sure they don't know crap about Regine.

If they did they would have cited her payment performance
up to that one thing they found. And it sounded like they
didn't just chance upon it. But that's my take on their
intriguing reasoning and explanations.

I seen media hype with showbiz before. But this is the
first time I seen a gov't agency do it like showbiz does.

I guess the B.I.R. has hired Abunda and Backroom, Inc.
as their tax drive media publicist because when you read
about their tax thingy on Regine it sounds alot like the
way her publicist wildly hypes things too.

Among the top showbiz tax payers a few years ago Regine
was number 11. Other music artists Sharon on the list
were Sharon C. and Ogie A. It was posted in the Music
Inside Buzz front page for quite some time. Regine is
known among fans for doing the right things like paying
for her taxes.

It sounds like Regine's accountant or who ever does her
tax filing and rax returns has missed including one of
her last big product endorsement for Nestle Ice-cream.

The press released said there was no tax paid for the
talent fee she received on it. Ok. If that's accurate
then all businessmen out there know what comes next.

It'll be interesting to know how it was missed. But it
isn't as big a deal as they are making it. Unless they
wanted to. They are talking down on her like she was a
certified tax evader or something. But they know better
than that. Unfortunately, the media publicist working
with this showbiz tax drive doesn't.

It may be a ligit tax issue with the artist. But the
degrading way it is being handled is something we seen
several times already. It looks like the same old kind
of wording done by her own media publicist once again.

Did he think it wouldn't be noticed just because he was
working with the B.I.R.? By the way, aren't you being
a showbiz traitor in doing something like this? Well,
you seem to have been trying to keep your involvement
a secret so I'm assuming a few things.

Does Richard Gomez know about it? How about the Lucy Torres
rumor? Doesn't that one seem similair to the Regine-Ogie
rumors in some ways? Because of the many people who was
mentioned but weren't even involved? And both rumors were
pushed into the media scene for more than a year even
though they were as false as they come?

Now both Regine and Richard Gomez who are connected to
those two long running rumors are the only two celebrities
mentioned in this B.I.R. showbiz tax drive. And you know
they had to have someone in the know from showbiz in order
to get the drive off the ground. You just can't pick out
200 or so celebrities at random. You'll hear it from their
managers and their media publicists for sure!

So make a wild guess who is the showbiz media publicist
who the B.I.R. had to approach to get information and
where to start for this public humilation move of
popular showbiz personalities?

Who else would turn against his own friends and clients
without them having a clue about it? Who else has been
doing it and getting away with it all these years?

Probably the only one in showbiz the B.I.R. will not be
doing any financial investigation on.

S u b j e c t :
" All Regine Incidents should be Investigated! "

I agree with that one. And the first thing that should
be investigated is this B.I.R. issue. Because it is
part of some showbiz tax drive thry are doing and
in order to do one on the number of celebrities
they said are being called in for questioning
you'll need several high profile showbiz
insiders as consultants.

And there are only 2 I can think of who would have
given the ok to use Regine's case in their media
conference that was done on her birthday- her
media publicist or one of the two ex-handlers.

But only her publicist has the gall to do add
his own personal agenda against Regine with an
ligit agency doing their own thing with her
like the B.I.R.

And with that Maxi-media case as well. I'm
sure he used his influence he has with them
to bring out that suit against Regine. You
wonder if Maxi-media know or even care about
the possibility that it was the publicist who
caused the Legrund project to fall apart as
he may also have done with the Sony-Regine
and Mark Fiest deal.

And this is the new info-
xxxxx xxxxxxxxx is using some members of
RVML to cause a few problems among us with
each other and with our realtionship with
Regine. And then caused Regine some problems
with other artists like Lea Salonga. Details
are withheld at this time. But this story
is about what caused Regine's music directors
to have some differences instead of working
together on the fans yahoo lists.

It also about the time a fan send a letter
to the Lea Salonga group and got Lea's fans
upset. Then tidbits of the incident came
out in the Manila Bulletin. It was planned.

One of three major incidents on RVML that
can be linked to xxxxx xxxxxxxxx to fan
activities on the yahoo groups.

This one is for Raul Mitra to be briefed
with. Since it concerns him personally.

I may have been banned by the craps of RVML
but I'm always kept in the loop about what
is going on with the help of the good fans
there.
