It’s Showtime‘s child star Kulot made the rounds online after the emotional dialogue with her father in the show.
Kulot has been trending online for a while now for her funny and witty stories. She even shared the story about her father, who always texts someone on his phone.
In It’s Showtime‘s live episode on March 27, TV host Vice Ganda interviewed Kulot’s parents, who were a part of the audience.
Kulot’s parents assured her they’re on good terms with each other. They even shared a hug.
But Kulot remained skeptical and claimed that her father would still text a woman named Barbie on his phone.
Vice Ganda then noticed that Kulot seemed teary-eyed. When the TV host asked about it, Kulot shared her doubts about her father’s loyalty.
“Madami pa rin hong ka-text ‘yan,” said Kulot.
When Vice Ganda asked about Kulot’s affection toward her father, the child star said that she loves her father.
But Kulot refused to tell her father the words ‘I love you.’ At this point, a tear rolled down Kulot’s cheek.
“Minsan sabihin mo sa itay dahil masarap iyon sa damdamin kapag nasasabi sa itay na mahal mo siya. Gusto mo bang sabihin sa itay iyon?” asked Vice Ganda.
Kulot answered, “Huwag na ho.”
Kulot’s father then shared how proud he is of her and expressed his love to her.
“Syempre po proud ako diyan, anak ko po iyan eh. Proud na proud po ako diyan kay Kulot.
“Kulot, alam kong ito na ‘yung gusto mo. Sana hindi ka magbago, sana hindi ka makalimot sa mga taong tumulong sa’yo kung ba’t nandito ka ngayon. Basta lagi mong tatandaan na mahal na mahal ka ni Daddy.”
Vice Ganda then urged Kulot to hug her father, but the child star refused.
“‘Wag na ho, baka mamaya ay may ka-text pa din,” said Kulot.
The conversation went viral online as netizens sympathized with Kulot. They were sad that the child was carrying something painful at such a young age.
The moment Kulot cried, I lost it. Hey eyes scream pain. ‘Di na rin napigilan ni Anne, tumulo na rin luha niya. Protect these children at all cost. #ShowtimeSummertime pic.twitter.com/4XY26XgrYc

The way I see it, Kulot's tears screams a child's trauma from witnessing her dad cheating on her mom. Not saying I love you to him may also mean I don't want you to do that again. #showtimesummertime

Sa kadtong napagkaitan na, we can't reform the broken pieces back to their original form; let's live with these broken pieces instead. I tell you, they can transform into another kind of beauty, which you can eventually appreciate.🥰😊 #ShowtimeSummertime #Kulot pic.twitter.com/9MP4et5NVE

Ramdam na ramdam ko yung sama ng loob ni Kulot sa Tatay nya. Sobrang bata pa nya pero alam nya na kung ano ginagawa ng tatay nya #ShowtimeSummertime

I feel bad for kulot, ganon yung feeling ng mga batang nakikinig sa mga pagaaway ng mga magulang nila. Nakita ko din sarili ko sa kanya before 🙁#ShowtimeSummertime

Maybe #ShowtimeSummertime could benefit from getting in touch with #MHProfessionals to be able to minimize the further exploitation of these children. These children are being themselves and they become marketing of these shows, and for what? https://t.co/KxTpVxn6Ya

Daming mema na kesyo ininvalidate at ginaslight si Kulot. Jusko bata pa yun. Nilulugar po ang mga bagay-bagay na kala niyo laging tama. Kumalma kayo. Ang ginawa lang ng hosta eh finilter ang mga pwedeng sabihin sa isang batang kagaya niya kesa dumagdag pa.
