Sparkle actress Althea Ablan gets candid about her personal experience about getting bashed online.

Althea talked about her own online bullying experience during a livestream event for Daig Kayo Ng Lola Ko recently where she was joined by versatile actor Chuckie Dreyfus.

According to the homegrown Kapuso talent, she firmly believes that there is a right time to reply and defend yourself against your online detractors.

She explained, “Ako po 'pag meron ako nababasa ganun, ini-ignore ko lang talaga.”

“Kasi ayoko maka-absorb ng negative vibes talaga. Iti-take ko siya para mas maging better ako, mas gumaling. Pero 'yung didibdibin, dadamdamin hindi na. Pero, kung umabot na ng personal na talaga siya, siyempre, dun na ako papatol. Ay parang grabe naman 'to.”

The 19-year-old actress added, “Pero about naman sa acting siyempre iti-take ko 'yun na para mas gumaling ako.”

Meanwhile, Chuckie Dreyfus interjected and reminded everyone that we can't please everybody and there will always be some difference of opinion.

He stressed, “Tsaka alam naman natin 'yun na you can't please everybody naman 'di ba. If you keep on trying to please everybody, you're just gonna end up feeling, kasi nga hindi talaga mangyayari 'yun.”

“Tsaka, buti ikaw nagagawa mo hindi dibdibin o masyado damdamin lahat ng sinasabi nila. Kasi, may mga tao hindi marunong gumayan, e. Lahat ng sinasabi [na-absorb nila] hanggang sa nagiging depress.”
