Herlene Budol Reveals Bashing She Received Affects Her Mental Health
Actress-comedian and beauty queen Herlene Budol revealed that the bashing she received affected her mental health.
Herlene stated on Wednesday’s episode of “Fast Talk with Boy Abunda” that her bashers had a severe impact on her mental health. During an interview with Boy Abunda, Herlene revealed that she had considered quitting Miss Grand Philippines when her detractors made disparaging remarks about her performance in the competition.
“Umabot po sa punto na hindi ako nakakatulog, hindi ako nakakapag-cell phone, dinelete ko po lahat ng apps ko sa cellphone ko at hindi na rin po ako [nakakain] ng 2 days po ah,” Herlene said. “‘Yung mental health ko noon, zero talaga.”
Herlene was chastised following her answer during the Miss Grand Philippines Q&A session. Herlene’s answer to the question quickly went viral. It’s because netizens and pageant goers thought her “dogshow” response was too casual or indecent for them.
Budol then publicly apologized for her performance. In her message, she promised to do better and work harder with her speech coach. She stated unequivocally that she is not giving up.
Meanwhile, the “Magandang Dilag” actress revealed that she has been second-guessing herself as a result of her detractors’ bad perceptions of her. Her haters, she claims, had a terrible impact on her mental health.
Herlene also stated that this is the first time she has a large number of detractors. She has, however, stated that she will not withdraw from the beauty competition. Herlene also demonstrated her unique pasarela walk, dubbed the “Grand Budol Walk” in the show.
Herlene’s pasarela was the “Squammy Walk” when she competed in Binibining Pilipinas last year. The beauty queen, who was first runner-up in Binibining Pilipinas 2022 and received seven special prizes, announced earlier this month that she had cleared the first Miss Grand Philippines screening.
