Diaz denies sexual harassment charge
A congressman has denied a "sexual harassment" allegation by a member of a sexy group of starlets known as the Viva Hot Babes.
"That is not true," Zambales Representative Antonio Diaz told reporters on Monday, a day after Anna Leah Javier made her accusation.
Diaz said he would have asked the committee on ethics to investigate Javier's allegation had he heard the starlet say that he actually "sexually harassed" her.
Diaz showed to the media the receipt of his payment to the starlet amounting to 25,000 pesos.
"I did not hear her (Javier) say sexual harassment. If she did, I would have stood up on the floor to move that I should be investigated by the House," he said.
Javier claimied that not only did the congressman harass her but that he did not also pay her the right talent fee when she was invited to perform at the birthday party of Zambales Governor Vicente Magsaysay, a close relative of the congressman, last January 20.
The lawmaker explained that he was actually getting the services of another Viva Hot Babes member, Jennifer Lee. But Lee's manager was asking for 250,000 pesos, which he said he could not pay.
"I thought I was welcoming Jennifer Lee but it was Javier who arrived," he said.
Diaz said Javier was paid for singing two birthday songs for the governor and no other service was asked from her.
"Nag-iingat nga ako sa kilos ko...Itong tanda kong ito, di ako papatol lalo na sa mga menor de edad (I am careful about the way I act. At my age, I have no intention of taking advantage of anyone, especially a minor)," Diaz stressed.
But during Diaz' privilege speech in congress, he rolled-out a poster of the sexy actress which prompted other lady legislators to stand up and demand apology from Diaz for the action since Javier is minor and the act was scandalous. Diaz promptly said that he is too old and had undergone hearth by-pass that he could not have committed such a senseless act.
