Following the release of his latest song, Future Lover, Janno is once again under the microscope of unapologetic haters.
The OPM singer, comedian, and host Janno Gibbs gave his basher a taste of a polite clap back. In his Instagram story on Wednesday, November 9, he shared a screenshot of his exchange with a basher who called him “laos” and “trying hard” to be relevant.
The basher commented, “LAOS trying to be noticed and relevant.”
In his reply, Gibbs said he feels sorry for the basher, adding that he will be praying for the person to find his real purpose in life.
“I feel sorry for your sad existence. I pray you find purpose in life.”
He is not new to bashing regarding his current showbiz stature.
Previously, Gibbs addressed the issue, saying he sometimes gets hurt when being called “laos.”
In an interview with Ogie Diaz on September 25, he admitted that he is not that popular compared to his golden days in showbiz.
“Lagi namang binabalik sa akin, ‘Laos ka na. Laos na kaya nag-iingay sa social media.”
“Pero aminado naman akong hindi na ako sikat, laos na.
“Nahe-hurt din pero tanggap ko naman. Alam mo, sa paniniwala ko, laos lang naman ako pag wala akong ginagawa, e.
“Pag may movie akong bago, hindi na naman ako laos, di ba? Ganun lang naman yun, e,” Gibbs explained.
He then stated that he would simply respond to his detractors by asking if they ever became popular because he is certain he was.
“Yun ang sinasagot ko. Ang sasabihin ko, ‘Ikaw ba sumikat ka ba?’ Iyan ang sinasagot ko.
“Ako nalaos pero ikaw ba sumikat ka ba kahit kailan?’ Yun ang mga sagot ko.”
