KRIS AQUINO
“SUS 5 second exposure! Dadaan lang camera sa kanya. Extra! Extra!”
That was a basher’s message na sinagot ni Kris ng, “Thank you…it is soooooo difficult to not speak my TRUTH. Because when people actually watch the movie they’ll know what I mean.
“I was given strict instructions not to say a word until the go signal from @wbpictures office gives me the Philippine trailer to upload.
“Ito lang ang puwede kong sabihin – IKINATABA ng puso ko na sa sobrang pagmamahal sa lahat ng Pilipino na nakikipagsapalaran sa lahat ng sulok ng mundo sa maliit o malaki mang posisyon, na ako yung napili for this role. Kasi nga binitbit ko yung ‘identity’ natin. And we owe ________ a big THANK YOU.
“He fought for us. I never claimed the role had long exposure BUT it is very MEANINGFUL. And we can be proud! For all those times we felt judged or looked down upon – this time in Crazy Rich Asians – tayo ang tiningala/ #waitlang.”
Fans of Kris defended her.
“Kahit pa extra sya or cameo role, isa pa ring karangalan yun para sa kanya bilang artista. Si JLo nga back up dancer lang ni Paula Abdul at ni Janet Jackson pero sikat na rin sya ngayun.”
“Her role is very important. Try to watch it dude and I’m sure you’ll be proud of Ms @krisaquino.”
