Pacquiao to ‘Chicks in the Office’ intern: You can call me anytime

A day after Senator Manny Pacquiao explained an online conversation with 22-year-old  Arzaylea Rodriguez, the boxing icon was again on netizens' sights after he was seen to have left comments on another woman's Instagram live.

In a phone patch interview with reporters, Pacquiao admitted that it was him who commented on the Instagram live of "Chicks in the Office" intern Maria Ciuffo on September 22.

However, he said that he was only invited for an interview when he was seen to have commented, "you can call me anytime."

"Yes ako 'yon, kasi gusto nila akong interviewhin, ininvite nila ako doon sa New York...sa radio station nila and then sabi ko, I'm in the Philippines, I cannot come but sabi ko 'you can call me anytime'," Pacquiao said.

Pacquiao's comments drew the criticisms of netizens but Pacquiao indicated that he has forgiven them.

"But I forgive them. Bahala na ang Panginoon mag-judge sa kanila," Pacquiao said.

"Alam mo 'yan kaya minsan yung buhay ng tao hindi umaasenso dahil...nagiisip sila ng masama sa kapwa nila kaya 'yan yung naging downfall nila na hindi nila nakikita yung mga problema nila, mga pagkakamali, but anyway hindi naman ako ano diyan dahil wala naman tayo, nothing to worry about. I fear God," he added.

Pacquiao said that it was just a hobby to check live videos on Instagram.

"Kasi ako 'pag nagpopost ako nagoopen ako ng account ko sa Instagram, ang hobby ko p'ag may nakita ako na parang live, so tinitingnan ko, kasi 'pag tingnan mo siyang live, mag-appear 'yan doon sa kanila, oh Manny Pacquiao is joining, so nakita nilang joining so binati nila ako, hello Manny Pacquiao, ganon ganon," Pacquiao said.
