PHOTO: Girl in the Alleged Andrea Brillantes Video Not Her, But Her Sister?

Manila, Philippines- Hold a second folks it seems that there's a twist in the shocking Andrea Brillantes controvesial video, a photo that was posted by facebook user Nikko Lim surfaced online stating that the female personality in the clip was not the child star, Andrea Brillantes but rather her older half-sister,  Kayla Ann Gorostiza. See the image below.

In the alleged video the female was apparently  wearing a black band  / bracelet which Andrea Brillantes' sister was also wearing on the said photograph and also as you can probably tell both siblings have the same facial features and characteristics thus making it a possibility that her older sibling might have been the one in the private video.
