“Oh God.” This is what Janine Gutierrez tweeted when GMA Network posted that Bong Revilla’s TV comeback show is about to launch next year.
In line with this, Bong’s talent manager Lolit Solis slammed the young actress for her reaction.

Lolit started: “Siguro gusto ni Janine Gutierrez na mapansin ko siya Salve. The nerve na mag-negative comment siya sa TV comeback ni Bong Revilla. How can she be so cruel for a second chance to a co-actor like Bong without even thinking if not for the goodness of people she won’t be where she is today.”
Lolit then sarcastically replied she is grateful as Janine is not the owner of GMA network, as she may have not allowed Bong to have another chance to have a show. She also belittled Janine’s TV and movie efforts as none of them have become phenomenal blockbusters.
Lolit continued: “Buti na lang at hindi siya naging box office queen na sana makatulong para sa career ni Bong, dahil wala pa naman ako narinig na naging blockbuster movie niya, or tv show na naging sobra ang taas ng rating, kaya hindi din siya makakatulong sa career ni Bong Revilla.”
Though Lolit respects Janine’s freedom of expression and political views, the veteran talent manager suggested that the latter should have thought twice when posting her opinion. She reminded Janine that her grandfather Christopher de Leon is friends with Bong.
“Dapat sa pagkakataon gusto niya magbigay ng opinion, nandun ang pang-unawa at respeto, dahil kaibigan ng lolo niyang si Christopher de Leon si Bong Revilla. I respect what she feels, or her political beliefs, pero sana inisip niya more than anyone else, siya dapat ang mas maging magaan sa pagbibigay chance sa isang tao na gusto bumalik sa pinanggalingan niyang mundo.”
As of this writing, Janine’s first tweet with ‘Oh God’ has garnered more than 2,300 shares and 20,500 likes.
While Lolit slammed Janine, netizens are praising and supporting the actress.
Janine might have gotten flak from Lolit, but she earned the respect of netizens. Here are some of the tweets from netizens:
“Finally, someone from the industry said something. Well done you, young lady.”

“Yung feeling na kahit contract artist nila hindi nakatiis sa kagaguhan nila, sino ba nakaisip nyan? Kukutsan ko lang ng isa ng magising naman.”
Haha. yung feeling na kahit contract artist nila hinde nakatiis sa kagaguhan nila, sino ba nakaisip nyan? kukutusan ko lang ng isa ng magising naman.
