I think her longleggedness melanie is much better,
just as good as Erap,twide as good as jimmy but much better looking

e.g.

At a talk show after her break-up with Derek Dee, Melanie was asked if she had some words for Derek’s mother (whom she partly blamed for the separation). “Oo nga,” said Melanie, “pero i-English-in ko para maintindihan niya.” She looked into the camera and, with the peremptoriness of royalty, said, “And to you, Mrs. Dee, I have two words for you. Ang labo mo!”

for other's sakes, because they're not a covers, melanie's eraptions:

Here’re some actual quotes from Melanie Marquez, the former Miss International, also a self confessed Madame Malaprop. (Note: Malapropism, meaning “a ludicrous misuse of a word”). It’ll make your day.

* * *
My brother is not a girl; he’s a gentleman.

* * *

That’s why I’m a success, it’s because I don’t middle in other people’s lives.

* * *

Don’t judge my brother; he’s not a book.

* * *

I won’t stoop down to my level.

* * *

Hello? Bulag ka ba? Bingi ka ba? Are you dep?

* * *

‘Yung STD, baka sa maruming toilet lang niya nakuha yan.

* * *

Eh, ikaw ba naman, durugin ang ari mo… Pag di ka naman manutok ng baril.

* * *

We are lovers, not fighters.

* * *

Kapatid ko pa rin siya. We are one and the same.

* * *

I don’t eat meat. I’m not a carnival.

* * *

Eto na po ang pinakamaligayang pasko at manigong taon sa inyong lahat. (During her acceptance speech at a Metro Filmfest awards night where her bioflick, directed by her late father Temyong Marquez, won an award.)

* * *

Sumasakit ang migraine ko.

* * *

Ang tatay ko ang only living legend na buhay!

* * *

Period na talaga; wala nang exclamation point. (When asked on S-Files if her present husband, Adam Lawyer, is her Mr. Right.).

* * *

(This one’s our favorite. When Joy read this, we literally laughed our lungs out for more than 1 minute with Johann looking amazed, probably wondering what’s happening to his parents)

Ooops, don’t judge Melanie. As you know, she’s not a book.

inaatake ako ng heart attack!

on my part, im used to halu-halo. normally, i cannot talk straight english as well as straight tagalog. minsan lang. nasanay kasi ako ng bisaya-tagalog-english labu-labo. once required, napipilitan din.

when Filipinos say "for a while..." instead of "hold on" or "wait for a moment". Ironically, i sometimes find myself saying it too.
