Dominique Cojuangco reacts to body-shaming comments on her video

Dominique Cojuangco showed her playful and glamorous side when she accepted the challenge from a fashion magazine.

Preview PH challenged Dominique to eat different dishes without ruining the latest beauty trends like long nails, glittery lips and glossy eyes.

But instead of appreciating the video, some people chose to pick on the weight of the daughter of Gretchen Barretto and Tonyboy Cojuangco. Dominique herself felt that people taunted her weight and completely ignored the content. 

Dominique took to Instagram to call out the netizens who left unsavory comments on her YouTube video. She emphasized that it’s inappropriate to scorn anyone because of their weight. She encourages everyone to inspire instead of giving unsolicited advice to a person. 

Dominique wrote: "I’d like say: I head over to the video to find comments like “chubby” and “diet lang”. For a second, I thought that it was fine. I was raised in a loving environment that allows me to not be bothered by unsolicited remarks. However, it isn’t alright and it really isn’t about me. None of us should tolerate body shaming or shaming of any sort! Let’s not deem this as “normal” - there’s space for change. I hope that today and everyday we can be the type of people that lift eachother’s spirits:) Whether you’re less than a size 0 or over a size 12... Happy women’s month to females of all shapes, race, age, and religion"

Gretchen came to her daughter's defense by leaving a positive comment on her daughter’s post.

People expressed appreciation for Dominique’s encouraging words and her way of changing the adverse mentality.
