Angelu de Leon Praises Kathryn Bernardo, Daniel Padilla
ANGELU DE LEON – Actress Angelu de Leon praises young Kapamilya stars Kathryn Bernardo and Daniel Padilla on how they deal with bashers.
To be bashed is no longer a rare experience for actors and actresses but it is often unfair on their part as, despite their celebrity status, they are also human who may get offended by the negative remarks about them or addressed towards them.
The success of an actor or an actress often can’t spare him or her from getting bashed by other people. Many of the bashers hide in fake accounts that were often made so they can safely express negative comments about the stars.
Things have really changed a lot now compared to how it works back in the mid-90’s. One of the loveteams that greatly hooked fans and supporters before is the on-screen pairing of Angelu de Leon and Bobby Andrews.
Based on a recent report in Philippines’ Ultimate Showbiz Hub (PUSH), speaking to the source, Angelu de Leon expressed that they love their fans but they are thankful that they did not grow up in a world where the social media is present.
“We’re very grateful we didn’t grow up in a world where you’re just a text away, you’re just a caption away, you’re just a reply away, you’re just a comment away,” she said.
According to Angelu, during their time, they only had “snail mail” and they get from Viva sacks of mails from their fans and what they would usually give their fans are cardboards with their photos and signature.
Angelu de Leon expressed that she would sometimes feel sad for KathNiel (Kathryn Bernardo and Daniel Padilla) when she would read the comments. She raised questions about people who hide under different profile pictures and name to do it and their madness.
“Sometimes parang tagos sa buto yung mga bashing,” she expressed.
Based on the report, the actress also admitted that she admires people who are not fighting back at bashers. According to her, at the end of the day, it is the problem of the basher and not the one being bashed. She also quoted a line from the bible.
“Sabi nga sa bible, ‘Out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks.’ So it shows so much of who you are the way you comment on social media,” she said.
The KathNiel is indeed one of the loveteams that do not give much attention to the bashers and those who only have negative statements about them. For several times, they have remained silent amid an issue and continued to do their job as an actor and actress.
