ANGEL LOCSIN

Angel Locsin didn’t take Arnold Clavio’s controversial statement sitting down.

What Arnold Clavio said in his statement? And what Angel Locsin said about it?

The Best Actress for Star Awards for Movies Angel Locsin has already spoken up in defense of the Azkals and her special friend Phil Younghusband after Arnold Clavio questioned the ethnicity and the behavior of the Philippine Football Team.

Hindi ko kayo kakultura, Hindi naman kayo Filipino. Nagpapanggap lang kayong kayumanggi. Hindi kayo dito lumaki, mahirap yun. Insesnsitive.”

The 26 year old Angel is not usually vocal about personal issues but this time she expressed her views in her Twitter account.

“I think Arnold Clavio’s a good person but this time, sobrang foul lang. That’s his opinion. This is mine. Madali lang sumira ng reputasyon, mahirap ibalik. Konting sensitivity lang sana,” she tweeted.

“Kagaya ng sinabi ko, tingin ko talaga mabait sa akin si Tito Arnold. Mabait siyang tao. Pero iyon lang, naawa lang ako doon sa tao (Phil). Nagpakahirap, nandoon sa ibang bansa, lumalaban dala yung pangalan ng Pilipinas,” She added.

Locsin also clarified that she and Clavio are not fighting, and the she understands that he did not have a terrible intent with his statement.

“Siyempre, pag nakgki-care ka or nagmamahal sa isang tao at nakikita mong nasasaktan na sila, so parang unfair naman iyon. I’m sure hindi naman sinasadya ni Kuya Arnold yung statement niya, siguro nadala lang or wala siyang masamang intension,” she said.

In the moment Angel also said that she feels hurt at how some people judge the team, particularly Phil;, She feels that their judgment is uncalled for, especially that Phil is proud to represent the Philippines in international football competitions.

            “Kawawa naman, proud na proud niyang nirerepresent ang Pilipinas. Mas Filipino pa nga sa akin iyon kung tutuusin. Tapos hindi pala siya Filipino sa tingin ng iba. Ang sakit lang. Huwag naman sanang ganoon,” She said in her statement.

And then, Arnold Clavio has apologized for his comments.

The Actress is doing ABS-CBN’s sitcom “Toda Max,” and she is slated to shoot a movie with Bea Alonzo, Toni Gonzaga and Angelica Panganiban.
