During the October 20 episode of It’s Showtime, one of the highlights of the Magpasikat 2018 was the Miss Q&A featuring the hosts of the show as the contestants.
“Ang taray ni No. 1 o, bloated si Leila de Lima o. Mukhang nahiyang si Leila sa loob. May message ka ba kay Trillanes?” Vice said referring to Jugs Jugueta who played as Juggy Sta. Maria.

Because of that several netizens bashed the comedian for his comment about the Senator.
With regards to this, Sen. Leila de Lima took to Twitter her answer to Vice Ganda‘s “patutsada”.
On the Twitter account of the lawmaker, she shared a tweet from Gideon Lasco, a columnist of Philippine Daily Inquirer.
Here is the tweet:
Senator Leila de Lima deserves utmost respect as a woman of courage: one who boldly went against Duterte’s drug war at the height of his popularity. Any attempt to make fun of her, especially in light of her current predicament as a prisoner of conscience, is unacceptable.
The Senator tagged Vice Ganda on her post.
