MANILA, Philippines — Senator Cynthia Villar provided a brief comic relief for her colleagues in the Senate, albeit unwittingly, after she was caught on video calling a certain “Dianne” during the online session of the Senate Monday. ADVERTISEMENTVillar was among the senators who participated in the Senate session through videoconferencing, which has been allowed under the rules amid the coronavirus pandemic. As the camera shifted from the session hall to senators, working remotely, Villar could be seen and heard repeatedly calling a member of her staff named “Dianne,” to the amusement of her colleagues. Dianne…” Villar said, drawing laughter from other senators such as Senators Franklin Drilon and Manny Pacquiao. Like Villar, Zubiri and Angara were also among those who joined the regular session through videoconference.
