Actress Janine Gutierrez has garnered widespread praise from netizens for her poised and classy response to a basher who accused her of heavily editing her photos for her 2025 calendar.
Janine recently launched her calendar as the ambassador and calendar girl for a well-known liquor brand. Upon the release of her calendar images, many fans praised her stunning figure and exotic beauty, with numerous comments calling her “hot” and admiring her physique.
However, one basher claimed that the photos appeared to be heavily edited, stating that Janine looked significantly slimmer in the pictures compared to her appearance during the calendar launch.
The basher posted, “Grabe pagkaka-edit ah. Napakanipis niya sa mga photo niya, pero nung launching, ang taba niya po. Grabe ang Photoshop, @asiabreweryofficial.”
In a calm and composed response, Janine took to social media to clarify the situation. She explained that the calendar shoot took place in October, and the launch happened in December. During that time, she had taken a break from her usual diet and workout routine to enjoy the holidays.
“I can see how this can be confusing! We shot the calendar in October and the launch was in December. In those two months, I went to Japan for the Film Festival, attended Thanksgiving parties for our show, and really took a break from strict diet and workout. I always take it easy during the holidays and enjoy my body in its different shapes, you should too,” Janine shared.
Her thoughtful response quickly went viral, with many commending her for handling the criticism with grace and confidence.
