OPM icon and known government critic Jim Paredes has advised a political influencer to just brush off Ethel Booba’s social media comments.
In a tweet, Paredes suggested to social media personality Francis Baraan to just ignore Ethel Booba’s remark and stop giving her attention.
“Dont give her anymore attention.”

Jim’s comment came after Baraan engaged Ethel in a Twitter conversation about his criticism of Duterte.
Ethel suddenly called out Baraan and accused him of having shallow arguments and taking criticisms against Duterte personally. She also alluded to his father, the former DOJ Undersecretary Francisco Baraan as hiding in another country.
Dear @MrFrankBaraan
1 Bat ang babaw ng mga argrumento mo di ka marunong tumapak sa lupa o laging lutang ka.
Pag mag post pag sure lang ha.
Di mo kinatalino yan✌️✌️✌️2 Criticism and personal issues

Ethel has been unmasked as a diehard Duterte supporter following her fallout with the former Twitter superstar @iamethylgabison.
The fallout allegedly has something to do with @iamethylgabison’s (which is now known as @IamCharotism) political tweets that don’t suit Ethel’s taste.
However, after creating a new account that is currently managed by her live-in partner, the new Twitter account of Ethel also went political, perhaps in a bid to gain the same number of followers her former parody account has.
O to mga teh ha para malinaw bat daw naging political tweets ko. Isa lang sagot ko dyan. Nung nagsabi ako ng totoo ano ginawa nyo. Di ko sinabing intindihin nyo ko bagkus siniraan nyo pa ako at gusto nyo mali ang pagsabi ko ng totoo. Now its my tweets. If you cant handle it. Bye.

And in the hope of attracting more attention and a bigger following, her admin chose to follow the route once held and lorded by the parody account who is viewed as funnier and wittier than the real Ethel.
Meanwhile, aside from Paredes many netizens also chided Ethel for being a fame whore and attention seeker in engaging popular Twitter personalities.
Netizen @shortee3MEW taunted Ethel for wanting to have a million followers like the “fake Ethel” that’s why she’s making noise on social media.
“Nagpapansin naman si girl @EthelBooba6, di pa kasi millions ang followers niya unlike kay @IamCharotism”

@IronDanEmman also pointed out Ethel has been craving for attention after being revealed as irrelevant following her fallout with Charotism.
“Nagpapapansin lang yan. Feeling relevant pa rin kasi.. Kahit dami nang umayaw sa kanya.”

Others also advised Baraan to just ignore Ethel.
