Anne Curtis and Mary Ann Ontay


Anne Curtis has no problem politely telling a netizen that she has no problem having her assistant on her Instagram feed.

Fans of It's Showtime host Anne Curtis already know that the star is beautiful both inside and out, but those still doubting her good character got a taste of it from one of her recent interactions on social media.

In one of her more recent posts on Instagram, Anne uploaded a photo of her with her assistant of 26 years, Mary Ann Ontay. Anne celebrated her assistant's birthday in the post, calling her a part of her family and referring to her as her daughter Dahlia's Tita Me.

While most of the replies were joining Anne in congratulating her beloved Ate Mary Ann, one netizen stood out for recommending that Anne relegate the birthday greeting to Mary Ann to the Instagram Stories function instead, as it did not fit the vibe of her Instagram account. In response, Anne told the netizen that Mary Ann “fit” in her feed as she is a family member and that her feed isn't curated anyway.

Anne Curtis is just one of the celebrities with no problem responding respectfully or humorously to netizens who engage with them on social media. Back in March last year, Rhian Ramos addressed online buzz caused by a netizen accusing her of bringing a fake luxury bag to a store opening.

While the comment has now been deleted, Rhian wrote In the comments to her post attending the event, saying that she doesn't “magically have the only existing mini Kelly(?) Birkin(?) in white/gray python” in the world and that the bag was a Buti Italia bag gifted to her by Corso Como 88.

In 2022, Rhian also dispatched a basher who told her to wash the dishes by posting a pitch-perfect response in the form of a video of her glamorously washing dishes while wearing a slinky black dress.
