Mabagsik ang reaksyon ni Leon sa komento ni ‘Lao’: ‘Paano siya magiging sikat na gulat/hi
Matet de Leon clapped back at a netizen who called her “laos” (a has-been), saying someone can’t be “laos” if they were not popular in the first place.
De Leon’s statement came after she was dragged into the issue of Kyline Alcantara and Carmina Villarroel by a netizen who edited a “malicious” video of them three.
“Nasasabihan pa akong laos nito. Paano malalaos ‘di naman sikat? Hindi nalalaos ang hindi sikat,” said De Leon. (I was told I’m a has-been. But how can anyone be a has-been if they were not famous? No one who was never famous can be a has-been.)
Asking to be left alone, the former child star said, “Hindi ‘yun para sa iniisip niyo na tao. Huwag niyo akong idamay kasi wala akong kinalaman jan. Kung ano anong sinasabi niyo tungkol sakin nanahimik ako.”
(What you say to me is not for the person you’re thinking of. Don’t drag me into the issue because I have nothing to do with it. You guys are saying things about me when I’m just here minding my own business.)

“Huwag niyo akong pagtripan kasi kapag ako nang-trip, hindi rin maganda,” added the actress. (Don’t play with me because you wouldn’t like it when I hit back.)
