People following the “Piliin Mo Ang Pilipinas” trend on social media can add another celebrity to the mix as Asia's Limitless Star Julie Anne San Jose has thrown her hat into the ring.
In one of the more recent posts on her Instagram account, Julie Anne posted her contribution to the trend, transforming into Maria Clara, the character she played in the hit show Maria Clara at Ibarra. In the caption to the post, Julie Anne wrote “Hola! Maaari pa bang magpasa ng takdang aralin si Maria Clara?”
In the comments, Julie Anne's former costar Barbie Forteza, as well as her boyfriend Rayver Cruz, expressed their admiration for Julie Anne's contribution to the trend.

Julie Anne is just the latest celebrity to join the trend, with It's Showtime host Vice Ganda's contribution to the trend earning praise from the public.
In Vice's video, the host included commentary on pressing social issues, such as the jeepney phaseout and the recent controversy surrounding the viral Chocolate Hills resort.
Vice's video even inadvertently caused a mini social media controversy for Zeinab Harake, whose comment "Laroooo hahaha love you😍” some netizens took to be offensive.

She also affirmed that she already talked with Vice personally and that she will always support the It's Showtime host.
