ARROGANT. That’s what Lea Salonga is to the multitude fans of Anne Curtis.
When Anne performed on The Voice of the Philippines, trying hard pa rin ang dating niya. Her performance was riddled with flats and all there was to it ay glamor.
When a follower asked Aling Lea about her opinion on Anne’s singing, the renowned singer unabashedly blurted out, “She’s still not a singer (which she admits openly). But her intonation is improving.”
Openly, fans of Anne bashed Aling Lea for that very straightforward anwers.“Duh. No need to point that out. Everyone knows that Anne is just a novelty act.
If only Lea were more humble, nicer, and not a total b**ch, she’d get to fill Araneta as well,” say ng isang fan. Na sinagot naman ng isang Lea defender nang ganito, “She has every right to point that out.
Opinion nya yun eh and mabuti yun para matauhan si Anne. Besides totoo naman sinabi nya diba? And she doesn’t need to fill Araneta dahil she was able to fill musical theatres abroad, where the audience have good taste & have class.”
But fans of Anne won’t hear of it as one said, “That still doesn’t give her the right to be arrogant, anon 12:42. There are several other, and may I add, more successful theater performers out there whose egos are not as bloated as hers.”
Nagtaray rin ang isa pa na nagsabing, “Hey lea, who do u think u are to say that to anne? pls know ur limits. u r a the voice coach, not annes coach so know ur limits okay? she may not be as good as you but shes richer and classier than u. so know when to speak and who to speak to.”
Chika naman ng mataray na netizen, “Epal siya. Spell ANGAS? Sakyan ba ang kasikatan ni Anne?” Still, another rudely said, “Many dislike her not because she’s honest, it’s because she’s so full of herself.
Out of all the leading ladies on Broadway and the West End, siya lang ang nega ang image. May rason kung bakit. Huwag ng ideny.”
One Lea fan stressed, “Nothing wrong with her answer. I dont get it why people in this country hates a celebrity who is honest. Tapos they bash those who are plastic. Saan sila lulugar?”
There is no comparison. You don’t compare a boses-palaka and boses lata to a golden voice. That’s what Anne’s fan should realize.
