The entertainment world has barely begun to mourn the passing of veteran showbiz columnist Lolit Solis — a woman known for her wit, bold commentaries, and decades-long presence in Philippine media — when a new and utterly shocking rumor began spreading like wildfire:

Did Senator Bong Revilla have something to do with it?!

Yes, you read that right. Social media is buzzing, people are speculating, and the questions are getting louder.

Let’s break it down.

Lolit Solis: A Legacy of Fame and Feuds

Lolit Solis was no stranger to controversy. Throughout her career, she became the most feared and followed voice in showbiz chismis. From actors to politicians, no one was off-limits to her pen.

And yes — that included Bong Revilla, actor-politician and current senator.

Though the two were known to be on generally good terms, sources say there were undercurrents of tension over the years. Some say it began when Lolit made subtle digs about Bong’s political scandals. Others recall her “shade” about Bong’s comeback into politics post-suspension.

But no one ever imagined that after her sudden health decline, his name would be dragged into it.

Where Did the Rumor Start?

It began with a cryptic TikTok post just hours after Lolit’s passing was announced. A woman, claiming to be an “insider,” posted this:

“Hindi lang ‘yon basta sakit. Baka may konek pa ang mga naiinitan sa kanya noon. May initials B.R. Think about it.”

From there, Twitter (now X), Facebook, and TikTok exploded with theories. Netizens began connecting dots — even if those dots didn’t always connect clearly.

Some pointed to an old interview where Lolit joked:

“Hindi mo ako pwedeng takutin, kahit pa artista o senador ka pa.”

Others unearthed blind items from years ago that were allegedly about Bong Revilla, written in Lolit’s signature sharp style.

Suddenly, a grieving moment turned into a swirling storm of conspiracy.

Netizens React: Shock, Speculation, and Outrage

Here are just a few reactions online:

“Grabe kung totoo ‘to. I used to think it was just tsismis pero parang may malalim na nangyari talaga.”
“Kung may kinalaman nga si Bong, dapat imbestigahan!”
“Leave Lolit Solis in peace. Huwag na nating gawing circus ang pagkamatay niya.”

Some fans, however, believe the rumor is nothing more than clout-chasing chismis meant to ride on Lolit’s trending name.

“Don’t drag Bong Revilla unless there’s proof. Ang sakit na nga ng showbiz world, tapos ganito pa?”

The Revilla Camp Responds (or Doesn’t?)

As of this writing, Bong Revilla has NOT released a statement addressing the rumors. His camp has remained silent, which — to conspiracy theorists — only adds fuel to the fire.

Critics argue that he should immediately clear his name if he truly had nothing to do with it. Supporters, on the other hand, say dignified silence is better than entertaining baseless drama.

Meanwhile, some political analysts worry that this controversy could affect Bong’s image, especially with elections looming in the next few years.

So… What’s the Truth?

Right now? We don’t know.

There is no official medical report linking anyone to Lolit Solis’ death outside of natural illness and complications from her long-term health struggles. And unless real evidence surfaces, everything remains speculative.

But in a country where showbiz and politics are deeply intertwined — where old feuds never really die — this kind of scandal is exactly the kind of wildfire that spreads with or without gasoline.

Final Word: Let’s Not Forget Who Lolit Was

Lolit Solis wasn’t perfect. She made enemies. She dropped bombs. But she was also fearless, funny, and a true icon of Philippine media.

If she were alive right now to see all this drama?

She’d probably laugh, sip her coffee, and say:

“O, ayan na naman kayo. Gawin n’yo na lang akong pelikula.”

Whether this rumor holds weight or not, one thing’s for sure — Lolit Solis went out the way she lived: surrounded by controversy, commanding the spotlight, and still making headlines

Bong Revilla, will miss Lolit Solis
