MANILA, Philippines - Mo Twister and Shalala have been besieged with Threats which they think have something to do with their job on "Juicy."

According to Mo Twister, the threats usually come via text message, and these often allegedly hint at more than just bodily harm.

The controversial radio-TV personality is unperturbed, however, as he said he had been receiving such since his career got reinvigorated via his “Forbidden Questions” program in FM radio station Magic 89.9.

Shalala, who prior to his stint on “Juicy” was seen on German Moreno’s “Walang Tulugan” on GMA-7, conversely is somewhat anxious with the continued barrage of “threats” he is receiving.

The host-writer said he is not used to being harassed. He wishes that it would stop and soon.

The two deduced that the threats may have been provoked in part by the success of their show, airing daily on TV5.

“Juicy,” is said to be gaining ground in terms of rating. More than that, similar shows on rival networks ABS-CBN and GMA have allegedly started copying the show’s format.

“Juicy” features showbiz-related rumors and “blind items,” which the hosts, including ringleader Cristy Fermin, would often spice with their own views and anecdotes.
