Krista Ranillo-Manny Pacquiao: Don’t believe the hype

Fi, fi, fo, fum…I smell a publicist, maybe a whole raft of them, behind the supposed Manny Pacquiaio-Krista Ranillo illicit affair stories.

I’m beginning to think that even the public tears of loyal wife and mother Jinkee were just crocodile tears. Either that, or her hubby did not let her in on the joke.

The gorgeous Ranillo co stars with Pacman in the upcoming Wapakman movie and the flick, in which wears a ridiculous red super hero outfit, has been given reams of publicity behind the rumored shack up of the starlet and the Pinoy Idol.

In the background I can almost hear the great Johnny Taylor tune, telling of a guy who was at the No Tell Motel with his paramour when he got a shock. As he checked in, his wife was checking out, hence the title, “She Was Checking Out When I Was Checking In.”

But back to Megamanny, redblooded Filipino boy, and the starlet.

If Manny wanted to be on the down low with Ranillo, would he have brought her to his training camp in Baguio, then to the Jimmy Kimmel Show studio in Hollywood?

That makes no sense if Pacman had a cheating heart.

But it’s perfect for grabbing mountains of publicity which is to a new movie what blood is to a thirsty vampire.

I’m not buying this script any longer. Call me a cynic if you must but I’ve got to hand down this verdict on Pacman and Krista: Don’t believe the hype!

Pacquiao might be a baller, a player and a shotcaller all in one but if he was stepping out on Jinkee I’m sure he wouldn’t rub her face in it.

It’s one thing to be as horny as a mountain goat, it’s another to be as dumb as a donkey.

I suppose the gossips will drop this like hot balut once they learn about my sizzling affair with Lady Gaga.

Besides now Pacmom has weighed in and said there is no rift between her son and former cosmetics saleswoman Jinkee.

In the background, I hear the late great Ernie K. Doe crooning his hit, “Mother In Law.”

‘Nuff said.
