For those who aren't Filipino or don't know who Kris and Borgy are, Kris Aquino is the daughter of Ninoy and Cory Aquino. Ninoy's assassination in 1983 is said to have been the spark that led to the EDSA Revolution, which allowed Cory to become president of the Philippines from 1986 to 1992. Kris is a celebrity.

Borgy Manotoc is the grandson of Ferdinand and Imelda Marcos, and son of Imee Marcos-Manotoc. Ferdinand was president of the Philippines from 1965 to 1986. Imelda was elected to the House of Representatives in 1995 and served until 1998. Imee is currently on her third term in the House of Representatives. Borgy is a model.

The billboards in the photo above are not the ones referred to in "Edsa 20/20." The photo was taken by this blogger yesterday from the Quezon Avenue MRT Station on EDSA.
