Comedienne and TV host Tuesday Vargas has spoken out against a netizen’s claim accusing her of being a “total b*tch” during a recent trip to Hong Kong, saying the story was fabricated and deeply hurtful.
In a Facebook post on Saturday, October 4, Tuesday addressed the allegation that she ignored fans asking for photos while visiting Hong Kong Disneyland.
“Bakit po may mga ganitong tao sa mundo? Lahat po ng nag-ask nicely sa akin ay pinagbigyan ko po magpa-picture. Nakakalungkot po na may mga ganitong mapaggawa ng kwento,” she wrote.
The comedian explained that if anyone felt she had ignored them, it was likely unintentional.
“Kung nalampasan ko po kayo, napakadaming tao at napakainit po noong araw na ‘yon. Wala akong maalala na nang-irap ako at nagtaray sa kahit sinong MAAYOS akong nilapitan at nagpapa-picture,” she clarified.
Tuesday went on to plead with the public to stop spreading false stories about celebrities.
“Please lang po, huwag naman po tayong ganyan. Nakakasakit po kayo ng damdamin,” she said.
Following her statement, numerous netizens came to Tuesday’s defense, sharing personal experiences that highlighted her kindness and humility.
One netizen wrote: “Your comsec can attest that the post is not true. I saw you once sa anniv gig ng Route 196. Sa sobrang daming tao and hindi naliligpit mga tables, you actually cleaned a couple tables… That’s how down-to-earth Tuesday Vargas is.”
Another fan recalled, “Tuesday is one of the nicest artists you’ll ever encounter. I never saw her turn down people who recognized her, even from a distance.”
Others remembered meeting her during her Shall We Dance days, describing her as “approachable” and “normal” when seen doing everyday errands.
In a follow-up post, Tuesday expressed her wish to identify the person behind the false accusation.
“Kung maayos na nagsabi, lumalapit nang naka-ngiti at hindi demanding o entitled, bakit naman hindi pagbigyan magpa-picture? Sana alam ko kung sino ka na naninira sa akin para pwede tayong magharap…” she said.
The actress-comedienne, who recently opened up about her struggles with ADHD and mental health, emphasized that she has always made time for fans who approach her respectfully.
Earlier this year, Tuesday also gave viewers a glimpse of her “hard-earned” home in a vlog with journalist Karen Davila, proudly saying, “Wala pong kinuha sa kaban ng bayan. Puro pawis at dugo ko lang po ‘yan.”
