GREATNESS OF COURAGE

One of the hottest 2009 scandals that for me; placed an intriguing mark in show business, “the Katrina Halili-Hayden Co sex video”. The sex video became popular in the news and in the internet particularly in YoutubeTM. Many controversies about it were spread in the news especially on tabloids. The parties involved in the scandals were Katrina Halili, one of the famous sexy stars on GMA and models on FHM magazines and Hayden Co, Katrina Halili’s boyfriend and one of the respectful doctors of Belo medical group. Their fans were disappointed; some are angry which negatively affected their career.

On Katrina Halili filed a case in the court against Hayden Co. Gabriela, a pro-women coalition and Senator Bong Revilla Jr. supported Katrina Halili’s case. Along the case Mr. Chua, friend of Hayden Co and Dra. Vicky Belo, ex-boyfriend of Hayden Co were also involved. They were accused of spreading copies of the sex video. The case lasts for several months. At first, at the flow of the case was in favor of Katrina Halili, but Hayden Co paid for a ransom and turned out to be in favor to him…

One think that comes to my mined was Katrina Halili still found her self useful for helping others especially women from abused and exploitation of their rights as a citizen, although Hayden Co was not acquitted. Currently, Katrina Halili is an active member of Gabriela movement.

Her fight wasn’t over! Now that she already knew her rights. She stood with dignity, courage, and strength to face the world. I didn’t think the scandal made here life be ruined instead it made her stand for a lesson to move on.
