On December 12, seasoned showbiz reporter and columnist Lolit Solis reacted to netizens naming her and Cristy Fermin as ‘Social Media’s Most Hated’ Marites.
During a YouTube interview, Solis admitted she still gets baffled why social media still take them seriously at their age.
“Di, nagtataka naman ako, sa edad naming ‘to sineseryoso pa nila kami.
“Dapat ang reaksyon ng mga tao, ‘naku hayaan niyo na sila, matatanda na ‘yan.’ Diyos ko hindi ko nga alam kung may Alzheimer’s na ko, pinapansin pa rin nila ako.”
She noted that she doesn’t let bashers get to her. However, Solis gets annoyed with netizens, who judge her as if they know her personally.
“Kahit anong sabihin nila, hindi ako pikon na tao ever since. Laking kalye ako eh. Ang naiinis lang ako doon sa parang kilalang kilala ako. Kung makalait kilala ako.”
Here are some tweets from netizens who dubbed Solis and Fermin as Marites on social media.

‘Marites’ has been used in Pinoy urban slang to describe a person, who’s a gossip-monger.
Aside from writing their columns and respective shows, Solis and Fermin have their tabloid-produced showbiz-oriented talk show alongside Mr. Fu in Take It Per Minute, Me Ganu’n.
