International star Charice, not allowed to see Tita Cory at the Manila Cathedral

Fresh from a commercial shoot, international star Charice went straight early this morning to the funeral of former President Corazon "Cory" Aquino to see her for the last time.

But the moment she and her mother Raquel stepped at the Manila Cathedral's entrance, she was barred by the security officers from going near the altar and told her she could no longer view Tita Cory's remains because the preparations for the requiem mass scheduled at 9:00 AM has already started.

Lea Navarro, who was manning the secretariat, was asking for Charice's understanding of the reason why they could no longer allow her to come near to Tita Cory.

Charice and her mom just left the Manila Cathedral and was assured that the committee will inform the Aquino family, especially Kris who's close to Charice, of her visit.

Earlier today, at around 5:00 AM, the public viewing was stopped to give way for the funeral rites preparations.

Charice was one of the names suggested to sing yesterday during the necrological service for Mrs. Aquino, but she was not available to give a performance.

Reports said that Charice arrived in the country last Monday.
