NAGPROTESTA ang fans ni Vivoree Esclito right after na gawing laughing stock umano ang hitsura niya sa ABS-CBN noontime show na It’s Showtime.
Ex-housemate si Vivoree ng ABS-CBN reality franchise show na Pinoy Big Brother: Lucky 7 wayback in the year 2016.
Tuesday afternoon, February 23, nang mabanggit ang pangalan ni Vivoree sa “Hide and Sing” segment ng show na pinahuhulaan kung sino ang legit singer sa tatlong pagpipiliang contestants.
Dahan-dahang ipinakita ang balboning braso ng Tago-Kanta contestant No. 1.
Hirit ng co-host na si Jugs Jugueta, “Si Vivoree iyan!” Natigilan ang isang It’s Showtime hosts dahil sa maanghang na biro ni Jugs in connection with Vivoree who is not a part of the show.
“Grabe kayo! Jugs,” Karylle admonished the seemingly cavalier Jugs, “I’’m a very balbon girl also. Gano’n lang talaga.”
Side comment ni Vice, “Sumakit ang batok ko kay Jugs.”
Nag-apologize naman si Jugs, sabay sabing that was meant to be a joke.
Obviously ay nakarating kay Vivoree ang patutsadang binitiwan ni Jugs.
So, last Tuesday, February 23, Vivoree posted a meaningful message on Twitter.
“When someone makes fun of your looks,” she tweeted, “let our response be ‘gwapa/gwapo gihapon (maganda/gwapo pa rin).”
Vivoree also reposted her tweet in the year 2019 in connection with her basher.
Hindi raw siya apektado pero apela niyang hindi tamang manlait ng ibang tao.
Vivoree also reposted the comment of another netizen stating not to use one’s physical appearance as a joke on national TV.
By way of her Instagram Story, Vivoree also shared a quote card stating, “DON’T YOU DARE MAKE ME FEEL ASHAMED OF MY BODY.”
After that, dumagsa ang tweets na “NO TO BODY SHAMING” coming from Vivoree’s supporters.
Nag-trend ang “NO TO BODY SHAMING” last Tuesday, February 23, along with the name “Vivoree” morning of Wednesday, February 24.
Some fans commented that this is not the first time that It’s Showtime made fun of Vivoree’s being a hirsute.
Another netizen retweeted a video clip showing a thick eyebrow of a “Hide and Sing” contestant, habang pinuhuhulaan sa hosts kung sino ito.
Ipinaalala rin ng ibang netizens na aware raw si Vice na ‘insecurity’ dati ni Vivoree ang pagiging balbon nito.
Sa dating panayam ni Vivoree sa defunct talk show na Tonight With Boy Abunda, sinabi niyang may mga tumutukso raw sa kanya noong “Ipinaglihi ka ba sa unggoy?”
But through the years, she has learned to shrugged it off.
“I just shrug it off and go on with life. Kasi their opinions don’t matter naman,” she asseverated.
Mas mahalaga raw sa kanya ang kanyang opinyon sa kanyang sarili at mga taong sa kanya’y nagmamahal.
