00:26 ABS-CBN's noontime show "It's Showtime" is set to air on GMA7.

00:30 Bangsa Motopop singer Shira's hit song "Celos" is taken down from streaming platforms due

00:44 The Vatican reveals a controversial 1951 decree rejecting the apparition of the Virgin Mary

00:50 in Lipa Batangas in 1948.

00:52 The announcement was made by the Archdiocese of Lipa.

00:56 Devotees have long claimed the Vatican decree is non-existent, while the Catholic Church

01:00 has declined to publish the document until recently.

01:03 The alleged Lipa apparition made headlines after former anti-graft court Sandigan Bayad

01:07 Justice Harriet Demetrio sued Dominican exorcist priest Father Winston Cabading for, quote,

01:13 "offending religious feelings for discrediting the reported apparition."

01:17 The Vatican ruling was approved in an audience with Pope Pius XII in 1951 and was authenticated

01:23 by the Vatican under Pope Francis.

01:25 The reported apparition has long been a source of tension between the Catholic Church hierarchy

01:29 and the devotees of what they call Our Lady of Lipa.

01:34 ABC News program presenter Sarah Ferguson reveals the behind-the-scenes of her March

01:39 4 interview with Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos Jr., where he was asked about his family's

01:44 plunder.

01:45 Marcos, after a series of stutters, said his family had supposedly signed "quit claims,"

01:50 giving up claims to assets the government found.

01:52 Ferguson says she had intended the first part of her interview to be about the Philippines'

01:57 relationship with China, while the second part was intended to be about his family's

02:01 scandalous past.

02:02 Ferguson says the Philippine president's staff tried to suppress the interview.

02:06 "From the moment that I mentioned his father, the minders start to talk amongst themselves,

02:11 then they start talking to the producer, trying to get her to shut the interview down."

02:15 "It's showtime, sir, GMA!"

02:21 The Philippines' leading broadcast firm, GMA Network, signs a deal with its former

02:25 competitor, ABS-CBN Corporation, to air the Kapamilia-produced noon show "It's Showtime"

02:30 on its flagship free TV channel 7.

02:33 "It's Showtime" is the Philippines' second-longest-running noontime show.

02:37 The announcement comes after the show's social media accounts posted a video showing

02:41 the symbol of GMA Caposo Channel beside the Kapamilia show's cartoonized first three

02:45 letters.

02:46 "It's Showtime" hosts take to social media to say their piece about the development.

02:51 Vice Ganda, Ann Curtis, Kim Chu, Teddy Corpuz post on X, while Vong Navarro, Jugg Sugweta

02:56 post on Instagram.

03:09 Joey De Leon.

03:12 Bangsamoto pop singer Shira's hit song "Celos" is taken down from all online streaming

03:16 platforms following copyright claims from Australian singer-songwriter Lengka.

03:21 The song had gone viral on TikTok and other social media platforms before the takedown.

03:26 In a statement, her agency, AHS Productions, says it voluntarily removed "Celos" from

03:31 all online streaming platforms.

03:33 It acknowledges "Celos" uses the melody of Lengka's 2008 song "Trouble Is a Friend."

03:39 The agency says it is clarifying the legality of the publication of the song and is in contact

03:43 with Lengka's team to make "Celos" an official cover.

03:46 Meantime, Shira reassures her Facebook followers Wednesday, March 20, she is doing okay despite

03:51 the deletion of "Celos."

03:53 As of writing, Shira has 556,000 monthly listeners on Spotify.

03:58 Her other songs are still available on the platform.

04:02 The killing of Kilua, a golden retriever, sparks conversations on social media about

04:07 cruelty to animals.

04:09 #JusticeForKilua topped social media trends since Tuesday, with Filipinos sharing the

04:14 news of Kilua's owner, Vina Rachel, who found his lifeless body in a sack.

04:18 Rappler asked social media users for suggestions on how to better protect animals from animal

04:23 abuse.

04:24 Many say animal abusers should get harsher penalties, as stipulated in the Animal Welfare

04:29 Act of 1998.

04:31 At present, violators receive a prison sentence of six months to two years, with a fine ranging

04:36 from P1,000 to P5,000 or both.

04:39 Filipinos online also suggest the government should prioritize programs that require the

04:43 spaying or neutering of animals.

04:46 Social media users also say local governments should come up with programs for strays.

04:53 And that's today's wrap.

04:54 I'm Nina Liu.
