Nilinaw ni Georgina Wilson na hindi siya hater ni Paris Hilton o ni PNoy nang mag-tweet siya tungkol sa napabalitang courtesy call ng hotel heiress sa Malacañang noong August 14. Ayon kay Georgina, opinyon niya lamang ito ukol sa mga ginagawa ng ating gobyerno at walang anumang personal na patama sa Hollywood celebrity o sa presidente.

Very busy ang staff ng Manila Peninsula Hotel ngayong araw, August 17, dahil sa dalawang magkasunod na press conferences at isang party na naganap sa kanilang lugar.

Kaninang tanghali sa Salon de Ning ay ni-launch ng Häagen-Dazs ang kanilang kauna-unahang brand ambassadors sa Asya na sina Phil Younghusband at Georgina Wilson

Kasunod nito, bandang 5:30 ng hapon, ay naganap naman ang isa pang press conference sa Conservatory Room ng hotel.

Para naman ito sa Hollywood celebrity na si Paris Hilton na dumating sa bansa kamakailan para sa isang endorsement.

GEORGINA'S TWEET. Naipit ang pangalan ni Georgina sa isang kontrobersiya sa loob ng social networking site na Twitter dahil kay Paris.

Noong August 14, araw ng pagdating ni Paris sa bansa, ay napabalitang magku-courtesy call diumano ang hotel heiress sa Malacañang palace.

Nag-react sa balitang ito si Georgina at sinabi through a Twitter post, "why is PNOY taking time out of his 'busy' schedule to meet with Paris Hilton tomorrow. So shameful that he doesn't have better things to do."

Sinagot naman siya ng ilang fans ni Paris Hilton na tila na-offend sa sinabi niya patungkol sa kanilang idolo.

Muli namang nag-tweet si Georgina at sinabing, "I dnt mean to offend anyone or be negative I jst think that Paris Hilton isnt important enough for a president to meet up with.night guys :)" (CLICK HERE to read related story.)

Kaya kanina sa naunang press conference ay tinanong si Georgina ukol dito at ito ang kanyang naging pahayag:

"I just really felt strongly about the issue so I felt that I had to say something.

"It's not that I'm pro- or anti-Paris, I'm also not pro o anti our president...

"You know, I have an opinion and I respect everybody's opinion—everybody that would say negative and positive things.

"There are a lot agreeing and a lot disagreeing, and I think they took it in a way that I'm insulting Paris or the president, but it really wasn't about that.

"It's about voicing out my opinion and it's just because I'm concerned.

Here's a brilliant comment from made by a reader on another forum relating to this issue. "Its a long-standing custom for leaders of nations to meet with famous pop icons and celebrities. It's called diplomacy, a boost for tourism, and a political effort to connect with the current interests of the people. Like How Obama met with Pacquiao, Georgina's statements are ignorant, uninformed, and the statements of a threatened, spotlight grabbing opportunist. Don't you love how every single time Paris Hilton is now in the local news, Georgina is now ALSO mentioned alongside her ? And don't you adore how Georgina just so happens to always be available in full makeup to defend herself to the press? Georgina has managed to successfully attached herself to Paris Hilton at the hip, for the entire time that Paris has been in the Philippines! Talk about a fly riding on the back of a cow! Paris Hilton shouldn't comment on Wilson's statement, at all, she should ignore it completely, BECAUSE Wilson's ulti

Georgina is politically aware, considering the fact that she's not a full-blooded pinay. Ang kikitid ng utak ng mga tao. She wasn't against Paris or anything. She was voicing out her opinion that a president must allot his time for more important things than meet up with Paris Hilton. Paris' negotiation here is clearly not of Pnoy's business, hence, the irrelevance of a possible meet up with Paris. Sana lawakan natin utak nating lahat. Stupid for people to say that she's insecure about Paris. P.S. I am not a fan of Georgina nor Paris.

oh ganon, so local celebrities have no right to speak their minds because they are filipinos? kasi dapat friendly sila and hospitable? only other nationalities have the right to be frank because they are blonde. ganon lols. so dapat pa-cute lang and plastik si georgina or whoever lols. tapos kayo puwede magpost ng kung ano-ano... very good and very nice lols

exactly, damonsalvatore 279 lols. and yes, pacquiao is not important in the US. he has no international fan or follower who flocks to his boxing match wherever it is held. not a million, not even one lols. not in las vegas or anywhere. never lols. he never stopped traffic en route to DC, not even in NY or wherever. he is not important at all. never lols....

I just hope these local actresses, or Filipinos in general, will be prudent enough in expressing opinions in Facebook and Tweeter coz these are widely used around the world. Filipinos are widely known as hospitable and friendly people. We may not reach what China and India had achieved thus far, economically, but at least we might just be able to maintain some good norms we are famous of other than being brides to order or domestic helpers. Freedom of speech is not there to be abused nor to abuse.

Obama is the leader of the free world and has lots more on his plate than Pres. Aquino, but gives time to Pacquiao just because that's part of his job. No big deal to Americans because they're a politically mature people. Unlike Georgina Wilson.

Damon - sorry to tell you that Pacquiao is not important in America. He does not influence society, policy making, economy, the federal, state or local government. A sports event is an everyday fare in the US and right now it's baseball season and Americans are waiting for football season to start. We see athletes on TV and stadiums everyday. Obama was being a polite president and accommodates people who want to see him, including Pacquiao, Justin Beiber, other athletes and artists. Difference between Pinoys and Americans is - Americans don't fuzz about who the president chooses to see.

Ayaw lang ng Pinoy sa mga bastos, maangas at matapobre lalo na kung wala namang napatunayan pa. Yung pagko-comment lalo na among celebs carries with it responsibility to society so kailangan ng discretion at delicadeza. Yan ang edukado sa paningin ng Pilipino.

I don't find anything wrong with Georgina's opinion at all. Siguro, if she tweeted that Paris has crabs, then I can understand why people would be mad at her. But she was just giving her opinion like any other ordinary girl would. Some Pinoys talaga, laging naghahanap ng rason para magalit.

Don't compare Manny meeting Obama with Paris meeting PNoy, 'cause Pacquiao is a very important person in the society, and worth spending your precious time with, Paris on the other hand is a cancer to the society. What a big difference!

tili 2 death, it wasn't Pinas who invited Paris to come here, she came here to invest and meet the Pacquiaos.. so wag ka nang mangarap na may mag iimbita sa Kardashians, dahil kahit imbitahan sila ang tanong.. papatol kaya sila sa invitation? at anung party or event sila iimbitahan? LOL! sige.. organize ka ng party tapos invite mo sila ha.

Nothing wrong with a head of state meeting up with a celebrity. Obama did the same thing with Manny Pacquiao hatalthough in this instance I believe that believe that it was Manny's camp which asked for an audience or courtesy call with Obama and this was in Manny's capacity as a congressman.
