    3. 12:16 AM - maybe you have to be an LGBTQ to appreciate her because I really can't see how she is cute.

  2. If they don't want to be asked, then don't. Just respect that. Maybe they're not comfortable to talk about it during interview kasi baka pag may nasabi silang hindi niyo nagustuhan magwala na naman kayo sa Twitter. Iba yung umaakting lang na LGBT ang character kumpara sa views nila sa totoong buhay.

    1. Then why accept a project or a role na LGBT? Ano to? Pang filmography lang? Pang awards lang? Remember that acting or portraying a role is a RESPONSIBILITY.

    2. 12.40 inaccept nya ang role dahil actor sya. may skills sya. now if d sya comfortable sa lgbt topic irespeto naten yun. di ka ba aware sa socmed ngayon kung anong environment meron? ayaw nya siguro magsalita dahil may mga kagaya mo na laging may kuda sa lahat ng bagay.

    5. O gaya nyan 12:40 sensitive masyado. Kaya nga acting! Kaloka ka. Oo te para sa pelikula. Acting is a job for some, passion for few.

    6. 12:40 uhm, kasi actors sila at trabaho nila yun? So kapag adik ang role, dapat yung adik din sa totoong buhay ganern?

    7. This happened to Nathalie Hart. She played a lesbian but she said something that was taken out of context and some were offended or shading her.

    8. Isipin mo na lang, walang tao ang gusto maging janitor pero dahil need ng pera, pinili nila yung ganun work. Same dun sa straight actor na pinili mag portray ng gay character dahil actor siya.

    9. Nope 2:30pm hindi ganyan ang nangyayari. Hindi dahil no choice, kundi kadalasan, masabi talaga na serious actor sila at makakuha ng awards kasi nga very challenging ang roles. Kahit na minsan wala sa puso ang ginagawa nila pero masabi lang na nakapag gay role. In short, nagagamit na naman ang konsepto ng lgbt

    10. 12:40 drama mo jusko. agree Ako kay 12:24

    11. 12:40 AM - the only responsibility an actor has in a film is to his/her contract, and that he or she is expected to complete the project in a professional manner. They are actors, they are not expected to be the same as characters they play in their private lives.

      The director was over reaching. If she disagrees with how the actress' management team manage her career, that's her opinion but it doesn't mean the director is correct. Judgmental sya yes.

  3. Baka kasi mamisinterpret niyo kung anuman ang opinyon nila sa community niyo. Nag-iingat lang, alam mo yun?

    1. Then dont accept the project. As actors, they are representing communities through their craft. Natural lang yung questions na yun

      Delete
    2. Nope 12:58 AM. Actors simply play roles. As an LGBTQ+ person, I wouldn't want a person who doesn't belong to my community to represent me and share opinions on my behalf. They obviously refused because they acknowledge the fact that they still lack knowledge about the LGBTQ+ community. These things should not prevent the community from being inclusive, though. We should educate them instead of testing them with their knowledge.

      Also, questions regarding LGBTQ+ issues are still considered sensitive and not "natural" to most people. Funny of you to assume that the questions are "natural" when the tweets didn't even express the specifics.

    3. Pag nagtanong pa naman sila gusto nila ang marinig na sagot yung pabor lang sa kanila kahit iba-iba ang opinyon ng tao

      Delete
    4. Wrong 12:58 (And obviously, ikaw din si 12:40) Acting is the art of storytelling. They bring to life a character using their craft. As actors, they don't represent any community.

      Delete
    5. agree with 10:31. very wrong 12:58, actor portrays character/roles and not to be forced to represent any community. they can choose the community to represent, in their personal lives.

      to be fair to the directors, asking questions and getting personal with the actors is a way to easily motivate them and to pull specific emotions needed in the scenes. but if they are instructed not to ask specific or personal questions, then don't. challenge yan for directors on how to motivate the actors.

  4. GL series yan nina Janine Gutierrez at Lovie Poe para sa IwantTFC. Sa tutuo lang mukang puro waley ang mga upcoming series ng Iwant sa 2022. Ang balita ko wala din balak ang Iwant na gumawa ng Pinoy BL dahil may kasunduan na sila sa GMMTV para ipromote ang mga Thai BL nila. Nakakalungkot dahil sa monopoly na ABS hanggang ngayon kaya pati Pinoy BL tumamlay at napagiwanan.

    1. Walang franchise pero may monopoly? Patawa ka baks. Ibig mo bang sabihin di nanunuod mga utaw ng free tv o ibang channels? Wala pang trailers nahusgahan muna nilabas nila.

    2. Fake news. May upcoming bl sila gurl. Yung PhilJie’s Heart under RCD Narratives. Ang may kasunduan lang sa GMMTV ay Dreamscape at yung mga shows na ni- reveal sa Unwrapped ng iWantTFC last Friday ay mga Dreamscape at Star Creative produced show. Madaming production unit ang Abs ilan dito ay ang Dreamscape, Star Creatives, JRB Creative at RCD Narratives.

  5. Baka nag-iingat lang dahil madalas na namimisinterpret ng press at publiko ang mga statements at icacancel sila bigla. If u want outspoken cast members, why not hire actresses that are part of the community?

    1. Lalo na kung the actor doesn't identify as member of the community. They're acting a role but can't relate to it. Also, iilan ang out na lesbian and gay actors na outside the stereotype.

  6. Aww i love LGBT community pero may mga ganyan talagang entitled. Nakalimutan din nilang irespeto yung gusto ng kapwa nila cos triggered sila. I don’t see anything wrong naman with it

  7. Anong masama dun? Right and respect are the words. It is everyones right to decline if they don't want to do something and you should respect that.

    ReplyDelete
  8. Excuse me po, not because you are queer, you have the right to ask LGBTQ+ Related quetions to anyone. Respect other's decision to keep their sexuality/ gender private.

    These woke people, need to respect others' pov

    1. Common problem within the community. They demand respect as long as its convenient for them.

  10. Parang may mapapalitan agad 😅 kaka announce lang tapos isshade mo agad sa Twitter yung handler ng magiging actress mo?

  11. I think may issue na ganyan yung Kay princess snell na namisinterpret yung tactless comment niya when she portrayed a lesbian character.

  12. Eto ba yung ex ni Mari Jasmine after Sam Milby??? Ang feeling ha!

    ReplyDelete
  13. Dapat sinabi n lng e "no personal questions", not "no LGBTQ+ questions" kse weird nmn na hindi pgusapan un kng un ang theme ng show. Pero if Samantha was talking about LGBTQ+ related personal questions,then she shouldnt be entitled to be able to ask those..

    ReplyDelete
  14. So sino dun sa dalawa? L or J? Eh parehas lang manager ng dalawan diba?

  15. Entitled agad Direk? Respeto mo kung ayaw ng actress ang topic

  16. she shoukd respect that,they are actors,doesn’t mean porke tinanggap nila anv project member na sila ng lgbt.what of sya as director di ready na mapag-usapan yan di ba ma-offend din sya of asked abt it?

    ReplyDelete
  17. Ang daming kulang sa reading comprehension. Sinabi niya "handler", hindi ang actress. Matagal ko ng finollow yan si Sam Lee at kabarkada niya si Janine Gutierrez at matagal na siyang ally sa LGBT, umattend pa siya ng Pride with Sam and friends. Si Lovi naman matagal na nilang finofollow ang isa't-isa which means they've known each other before this. The way I see it, hindi ang artista ang may issue sa LGBT questions, yung handler lang kaya siguro nainis si Sam.
