As part of her birthday celebration on Dec. 16, Quezon City Councilor Aiko Melendez is holding a Miss Gay Sinta ng Bayan at the SB Nova Plaza at 8 p.m. on that day. Aiko has invited her friends Gelli de Belen, Carmina Villarroel, Tuesday Vargas, Vhong Navarro, Candy Pangilinan and Sami (of Punchline) as guests of honor. Direk Maryo J. delos Reyes’ new all-male group Engaged will perform. Proceeds from the affair will go to the day-care centers of District 2. Among the sponsors are the Calayan Surgical Clinic, Pepsi Herrera, Avon, Sogo Hotels, Secret Garden Flowers Unlimited, Agua Jana and Bambbi Fuentes.

"This is my birthday treat to my constituents," said Aiko.

I'm secretly hoping that "Gay Sinta ng Bayan" is a typo for "Gay Santa ng Bayan". Man, that would be a great show.
