Vivoree Esclito spoke up against body shaming after being a subject of one of a noontime variety show’s segment.
Netizens took to Twitter to air their disappointment over a “joke” on ABS-CBN’s “It’s Showtime”, which allegedly body-shamed Kapamilya actress Vivoree Esclito.
Vivoree retweeted a 2019 post she wrote on Twitter and shared an Instagram Story which featured a text that reads:
“Don’t you dare make me feel ashamed of my body.”
Two years ago, Esclito tweeted that she was aware of people’s body-shaming her online and appealed for them to stop doing it to others.
“Ok so I’ve seen some comments about some people body shaming me. It’s fine with me po, none taken, but PLEASE do not do it to others. Some people don’t take it the same way I do. Other’s bodies are totally NONE of your business. Be sensitive enough to know that,” she wrote.
Apparently, this came after Twitter users slammed the Tuesday episode of the noontime show where a VTR showed a hairy or “mabalbon” contestant for its Hide and Sing segment, saying they didn’t like the reaction of some It’s Showtime hosts.
“Si Vivoree ‘yan!” said co-host Jugs Jugueta that had other hosts laughing.
Karylle, meanwhile, reacted, “Grabe kayo! Hits na yan.”
She went on to use herself as an example and reminded that being hairy is just normal.
“Jugs, ako, I’m a very balbon girl also. Ganun lang talaga,” said Karylle.
Jugs then apologize for the “joke” he made, saying, “That was just a joke. I’m sorry.”

But netizens, especially fans of Vivoree, expressed their frustration and called out the “insensitive” remark about the 20-year-old actress, using the “no to body shaming” hashtag which landed on the platform’s top trending topics Tuesday afternoon.
