Filipina actress and beauty queen Herlene Budol bravely confronted the issue raised by some netizens accusing her of letting fame get to her head.
During her guest appearance on GMA Network’s ‘Fast Talk with Boy Abunda’ on June 28, Budol addressed the criticism head-on, saying that those who make such claims should first have the opportunity to work with her.
According to Tito Boy, since Budol is now very popular, many people are saying that her fame has gone to her head.
When Tito Boy asked her about this matter, Budol firmly stated, “Siguro po makatrabaho ko muna po sila bago nila ako sabihan ng ganun…Lahat naman po ng nakakatrabaho ko… Siyempre, hindi naman sasabihin sa akin pero sa mga naririnig ko… hindi naman po sila ganon sa akin.”
In addition, Budol expressed her desire for those who badmouth her and criticize her behavior behind the scenes to experience working with her firsthand.
She emphasized, “Sa lahat ng mga nagsasabi ng ganon, makatrabaho n’yo muna po ako nang harap-harapan bago n’yo ako siraan.”
The interview of the Filipina beauty queen on YouTube had some positive comments. One comment reads, “Hindi naman lumaki ang ulo ni Herlene… Sa generation ng mga makabago, Herlene always remained simple at mayroong humility sa puso.”
Budol remains optimistic as she embarks on her journey in the Miss Grand International Philippines 2023 pageant. Competing against numerous beautiful Filipina candidates, Budol aims to secure the crown and the opportunity to represent the Philippines on the international stage.
