Charice's Mother: "I Used To Be Lesbian"

The mother of Charice, the singer who officially came out of the closet last week, held a press conference on Friday to state that she herself used to be gay before her own mother pressured her to begin a family.

"I used to be a lesbian," Raquel Pempengco revealed to the media assembled at her home, reading from an open letter in which she expressed disappointment that Charice appeared to have abandoned her loved ones.

Pempengco noted her suspicions of the people now around Charice, hoping they'd "take care" of her.





She also commented that she and her son Carl couldn't spend recent holidays and Charice's 21st birthday with her.

In Charice's emotional interview confirming her sexual orientation, she revealed that she'd become estranged from her family while thanking her fans for their continued support.
