Actress Barbie Imperial has expressed her dismay at online content creators who spread “false and negative” information for personal gain, urging the public to be cautious about engaging with such content.
In a Facebook post on Friday, October 4, Imperial acknowledged that while content creators need to earn an income, it should not come at the expense of spreading lies and negativity.
“Ang daming pages ngayon na puro negativity ang pinopost. Worse, puro kasinungalingan para lang umangat ang engagements at kumita ng pera gamit ang paninira. Nagegets ko naman na kailangan kumita ng pera pero sana sa paraang hindi magsisinungaling,” she wrote.
The actress also shared her frustration over how many people quickly believe false claims without fact-checking. She warned that liking or commenting on such posts only fuels the creators’ success.
“Ingat sa pag-comment and like, pinapayaman nyo po yang mga may-ari ng pages na ‘yan. Nakakalungkot kasi paninira na ang strategy ng marketing ngayon, at ang daming naniniwala without fact-checking,” Imperial added.
Imperial has recently been the subject of dating rumors involving actor Richard Gutierrez. The pair has been spotted together on several occasions, including trips to South Korea and Italy, a workout session, and during her birthday celebration. However, neither Imperial nor Gutierrez has confirmed their relationship status.
Meanwhile, Dreamscape Entertainment, the production company behind ‘FPJ’s Batang Quiapo,’ clarified that Imperial remains part of the TV series amid rumors of her departure from the show.
