Tom Rodriguez reacts to netizen calling him ‘plastic’

“Plastic mo po” – one of the flooding bashers on social media came to target actor Bartolome Alberto Mott, popular as actor ‘Tom Rodriguez’.

On his IG post of a produced video by Mark Philipp Espina, Rodriguez shared the poem ‘Nginitian Kita’ written by Yan Yuzon. This heart-warming poem which seems to be in a form of a spoken poetry, was joined by GMA celebrities: Dingdong Dantes, Lovi Poe, Sunshine Dizon, Benjamin Alves, Mikee Quintos, Miokoy Morales, Rita Daniela, including Tom Rodriguez. The production dedicates the video to frontliners.

Sa mga panahong katulad nito, kung saan hinahanapan natin ng kasiguraduhan ang bawat bukas…marami sa atin na ang tanging baon lamang ay manalig, at tumingin sa taas. Gayun pa man, ikinagagalak ko, na may mga bayaning itinakda, na ipaglaban ang kaligtasan nating mga madla. Pawis at buhay ang handang ibuwis, ang kalinga ng kanilang minamahal, buong tapang na tinitiis. Ang tanging kapalit lang na hinahangad nila, ay ang manatili tayo sa ating mga bahay…malayo sa sakuna. Kaya’t munti mang maituturing, sana’y umabot sa kanila…ang pasasalamat na nakabalot sa ngiti, kahit mata lang muna ang kita. Maraming salamat sa ating mga bayani! Mabuhay kayo mga frontliners! #ngingitiankita #salamatfrontliners #thankyoufrontliners

“Maraming salamat sa ating mga bayani! Mabuhay kayo mga frontliners!” Rodriguez captions in the end.

Though it may have been described as a touching and motivating move to inspire people, still it gets in the way of haters. In a more concerned and calm way, Rodriguez responded, “I hope kahit papaano eh nakatulong ka din sa munting paraan na kaya mo. God bless you and your family in this time of crisis.”

Tom Rodriguez is indeed a good example to fellow artists and other people in handling negativities coming from haters.
