Jinkee Pacquiao turns down Ellen DeGeneres show

The wife of 8-division world champion Manny Pacquiao, Jinkee, has turned down an invitation to appear in a hit US talk show.

In a report from the Philippine Entertainment Portal, Jinkee revealed that she received an invitation to appear on CBS' Ellen DeGeneres show, yet she declined the offer.

"Kasi live, sabi ko, ayoko 'yung live... Kasi first time kong 'yung magge-guest sa Amerika, sa CBS pa, tapos live," she said.

The celebrity endorser said she is not keen on appearing on any US-based live TV show, for now, because she is uncomfortable with the English language.

"Tapos siyempre, English ‘yun, so baka mag-nosebleed ako. Hindi ako fluent sa English, inaamin ko naman ‘yun," she said.

Jinkee, however, revealed she regrets rejecting a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Nonetheless, she stressed that she's just being true to herself.

"Nanghihinayang din ako, pero naiintindihan naman nila... Basta naging totoo lang naman ako na baka ano ‘yung masasabi ko, ayokong magkamali,” said Jinkee.

Meantime, Pacquiao’s wife said she’s not closing her doors to appear on the said show at some time in the future.

"Baka next time, baka handa na ako sa ganun," she said.

Prior to Jinkee, international singing sensation Charice and Fil-Canadian Youtube sensation Maria Aragon have appeared on the Ellen DeGeneres show.
