Wendy denies having a Japanese DOM boyfriend

"i think even if how hard we try to hide our real "mukha" lalabas at lalabas din to. i know wendy [Valdez] from FEU (my school too) the main reason why she passed her mascomm degree is because she ****ed (sorry for the term) our professor last february. (this is true we have pix and cams) inside the speech laboratory all schoolmates know this," claimed a certain Ma. Kathleen Morales Espiritu in an e-mail circulating the Internet through community forums.

The e-mail entitled "Facts About Wendy" made several allegations against Pinoy Big Brother Season 2 housemate Wendy Valdez.

In an interview last week, PEP (Philippine Entertainment Portal) had the chance to ask Wendy about the controversial email.

"Siguro kung magkakaroon din ako ng affair, bakit sa professor?" answered Wendy. "Bakit hindi na lang sa mga super big time para hindi na ako nahihirapan sa buhay ko, di ba? Para lang makapasa?"

She continued, "I used to be an honor student when I was in elementary. And high school ako, scholar ako so I think hindi ko kailangan ng ganoon. Sa totoo lang, ang dali-dali gumawa ng issue. Kunyari ako may kinaiinisang tao, gawan ko ng issue na something na puwede kong ipagdikdikan. Mayroon ako kunyaring basis. Ang dali-dali noon, e."

Wendy said she doesn't know the person who wrote the email.

"Hindi ko na nga alam kung saan nanggaling ‘yon. And the fact na grumaduate siguro ako and parang bongga ng graduation, parang siguro inggit din," she explained.

She added, "Eight years na ako nagpapabalik-balik sa school kasi gusto ko nga talaga maka-graduate. Kasi nag-stop ako kasi I work, then I go back to school, then I stop, and I go back to school again. So kung mayroong ganoon, dapat sana hindi na ako umabot ng ganoon katagal. Dapat grumadweyt na ako kaagad nang walang kahirap-hirap. Di ko na kailangan magdala ng mga outfit na pang-VTR sa school, and then takbo sa Makati and super mag-commute na naman pabalik dahil may subject ako.

"I'm actually having a hard time minsan dealing with professors. Nakikiusap talaga ako na, ‘May shoot po ako, parang awa nyo na... Kailangan ko ng pera.' Hindi ko siguro dadanasin ‘yong ganoon kung mayroon akong someone na tutulong sa akin para masandalan ko."

JAPAYUKI. "She said she went to japan as a dancer... It is true but she works in a prostitute house there and is charged $150 (pls convert to yen) a night. She's had controversial issues in FEU before about her story because she denied this when called to explain herself (kailangan ng FEU na mag-background check sa students for school image). Sabi ba naman niya 'i went to japan as a cultural dancer.' may cultural bang inuuwi at binababoy ng mga customer? (confidential files from 2005 feu)," read the e-mail.

"I am not a cultural dancer in Japan," stressed Wendy. "Actually, entertainer talaga ako, ganoon... I sang, and then kapag may nagre-request na makausap ako and sit there, ako ‘yong nag-aayos ng table nila. Ako ‘yong nagbibigay ng drinks. I talk to them. Hindi naman natin maiaalis na mga lalaki ‘yan kaya minsan nambabastos, e. It's how I handle it kaya siguro matapang din ‘yong personality ko. Kasi kung aapi-apihan ako doon, baka mamaya mabastos ako ng mabastos."

The former Bb. Pilipinas-Tourism said she knew that working in Japan may lead to a negative perception about her, but she said it was a personal decision to work there.

She explained, "Wala akong income. Wala akong makuhang work. Wala na kaming makain, and kausuhan naman noong mga panahon na ‘yon iyong ‘Sige, mag-Japan kayo. Mababait naman ang Japanese.' So, isinugal ko kasi wala akong mapagkunan talaga dito, e.

"Kahit naman ‘yong mga kumakanta, even the people who go there [to entertain], umuupo din naman sa table. Tagabigay kami ng alak. Tagabuhos ganyan.

"Even before I went there, alam ko naman na negative ang connotation ng mga tao. Pero noong time na ‘yon, ang iniisip ko, ‘How will I handle things when I'm there?' It depends on me. And ‘yong kakainin ng pamilya ko, ‘yon iyong palagi kong iniisip."

The aspiring singer-actress decided to work abroad for money.

"I went there kasi I can't find a job na makakapagsuporta sa amin kasi walang-wala talaga kami. Pag nakita n'yo bahay namin, as in! Kaya talaga kapit lang talaga," she said.

"DIRTY OLD MAN." "She is NOT POOR. Her last boyfriend was a Japanese DOM (62) named Hakimoto Ikita who gave her more than a million pesos. After she got the money she enrolled herself AGAIN IN FEU. this was around 2003. and left her lover to rot in Japan," wrote Ma. Kathleen Morales Espiritu.

Wendy asserted, "Iyang mga affair-affair, hindi na ako magugulat diyan kasi usually ‘yang mga girls, lagi naman may kino-connect na names. Kung hindi politician, businessman, Japanese... Lahat puwede mong i-connect na name. So ako, hinanda ko na ‘yong sarili ko diyan. Ang masasabi ko lang diyan, kung mayroon akong affair-affair na ganiyan, sana hindi barong-barong ang bahay namin ngayon. Buti sana kung kumakain kami limang beses isang araw at hindi ako nagpapakahirap sa anumang gusto kong marating kasi dapat nandoon na ako matagal na."

The commercial model managed to joke about not looking poor.

"Kasi po magaling ako magdala!" said Wendy. "Medyo magaling ako bumili sa Tutuban ng damit and all that stuff. Actually, ‘yong hawak ni Bruce [Quebral] na doll, sa Tutuban ko binili! So 'yon, magaling lang akong pumili ng mga outfit.

"Tatanggapin ba ako sa commercial kung mukha akong busabos? Siyempre ayusin ko naman din ‘yong itsura ko para may makuha akong trabaho. Pupuhunanan ko rin po ‘yong sa ganoon. Kaya hindi rin po masyadong malaki iyong naiipon ko kasi bumibili rin po akong gamit."

PEP also asked Wendy if it is true that she had breast enhancement.

"Siguro kung ano man ang mayroon sa akin, either true or not, basta nakakaganda sa akin, why not?" Wendy answered vaguely.

DETRACTORS. With all the bad publicity she is getting, Wendy said she is holding her head high.
