Emosyonal nga nagbalik-lantaw ang aktres nga si Jackie Lou Blanco bahin sa iyang inahan nga si Asia’s Queen of Songs Pilita Corrales dihang nibisita ni sa Sugbo niadtong Abril 27, 2025, kon upat ka adlaw sa wala pa nipanaw ang iyang ex-husband nga si Ricky Davao.
“My coming back to Cebu is bittersweet because I’ve just lost my mom. I have so many memories in Cebu since this is my mom’s hometown,” matod ni Jackie Lou sa press conference ug product launch sa Skyscrapers International Cebu’s Coach Eddie 10-in-1 Healthy Coffee diin siya ang brand ambassador nga gipahigayon sa Cebu Parklane Int’l Hotel.
“Everybody I’ve met here for the past couple of days have beautiful stories about my mom, that she was wonderful, she’s very gracious, all of them say the same thing. So I’m happy and sad at the same time, but I’m very proud because my mom had always been true to her character. I’m a proud daughter and I want to continue to honor my mom.”
Matod ni Jackie Lou nga sa bata pa siya dad-on siya sa iyang Mommy Pilits sa pagpanuroy sama sa dagat sa Moalboal, sa alma mater niini sa Colegio de la Inmaculada Concepcion ug sa kanhi ancestral home nila sa Lahug.
“She would have turned 88 in August. But even if my mom died peacefully but it’s still so hard. I can’t still believe that she’s gone. The other day I woke up and got my phone. I wanted to call my mom just to realize that my mom is not here na pala. Grieving kasi is a journey. There are days that you’re okay, there are days that you’re not okay. Wala namang shortcut sa grieving.”
Samtang ang CEO sa kompanyang nagpaluyo sa Coach Eddie 10-in-1 Healthy Coffee nga si Coach Eddie Mahilum nagkanayon nga si Jackie Lou ang ilang napiling brand ambassador tungod sa pagka-fitness enthusiast niini sa edad nga 61.
“Jackie has been a huge help. She inspires senior citizens, who are usually our main market. Kay makadungog man sila sa akong radio program. I’ve been broadcasting everyday from 16 radio stations nationwide,” butyag sa 52-anyos nga si Mahilum.
Kon unsay nagustohan ni Jackie Lou sa Coach Eddie 10-in-1 Healthy Coffee?
“Unang-una, it’s not acidic at happy ako kasi meron siyang ingredients that I usually take, such as collagen, mangosteen, fibers… parang ang sarap that I don’t have to take these separately because they are all there already. And if there are days na medyo mainit I can just put ice,” ni Jackie.
Si Coach Eddie nibutyag nga 16 na sila katuig ug nga duna na silay mga 30,000 to 50,000 users dili lang sa Pilipinas kundi sa ubang lugar sa kalibutan sama sa U.S., Canada, Japan, Korea ug Malaysia nga maoy tinubdan sa ilang kape. Niadto lang Abril nakadawat sila og international award isip Best 10-in-1 Coffee brand sa Singapore.
“I’ve been travelling worldwide just to find the best coffee in the world. We are using the best collagen in the market. It’s from marine collagen, not from animal, that’s why we are approved by muslim community. It’s 100% natural, 100% organic and no harmful side effects and we are also FDA-approved,” ni Coach Eddie.
Sa kasamtangan, si Jackie Lou busy sa iyang upcoming movie sa Cinemalaya Film Festival ug sa iyang online series sa IWantTFC ingon man sa iyang guest appearance sa TV5 action drama “Totoy Bato.”
