Ada is a Pinoy transgender woman who works as a beautician with her assistant Didi, another trans woman, in a small country town. Even though the former is the guardian of her niece Aruba, she does not feel fulfilled since she longs for acceptance as a woman in the capital.

Justin may know how to get a girl’s attention, but apparently he’s not as good at the wining and dining part. The 19-year-old singer reportedly had a group of sexy girls over to his Rio de Janeiro mansion — but the ladies weren’t exactly pleased with his choice of snacks.

Justin Bieber brought 10 lucky Beliebers back to his rented mansion in Rio, and while the girls were expecting a glamorous evening and a lavish dinner, they were surprised with a kid-friendly menu that left them unhappy with the pop sensation. Read on to see how their evening went.
