Actress Angelu De Leon was bashed for giving away five beans (‘sitaw’) to people and then invite them to watch television series ‘Pulang Araw.’
Netizens find it insulting to capitalized on people’s poverty to promote a show.
Angelu reacted and explained her position on the said incident:
“Hi. I do my yearly birthday community pantry as a way of giving back and being grateful to my constituents. Personal ko po ito.
Nahiya naman ako na hindi ito sapat para sayo. Pero I guess hindi ka naman taga-Pasig.
I will promote Pulang Araw because I am proud of our show.”
Netizens shared their sentiments by posting the following comments:
– “Ang lalaki pa naman ng plastik ng mga nakapila tas yun sitaw mga 10 piraso lang ata o baka wala pa. May pa-promo pa ng PA wala bang budget?”
– “Paka cheap tlga juskoo wa budget kapupooo”
– “kalahating upo at 5pcs na sitaw? at 1pc na upo ay 30to 40 pesos. d na lang kami mamigay. for sure sa lugar namin walang pipila. kasi sobrang kawawa naman kami kung ganyan lang tas naka video pa. nevah!”
