Kathryn Bernardo has found an unexpected ally in actress Dolly de Leon after a video of the young star holding a vape went viral on social media, causing a stir among fans and netizens alike. The video, which quickly circulated online, prompted a range of reactions, with some expressing concern over Kathryn’s actions. However, Dolly de Leon, who is set to star alongside Kathryn in the highly anticipated film A Very Good Girl, has come forward to clarify the situation and offer her full support for the actress.
In a recent interview, Dolly explained that the video in question was not meant to be taken as a reflection of Kathryn’s personal behavior but rather as a scene from their upcoming movie. The controversial vape moment, according to Dolly, was a spoiler for their film, revealing a key element of the story ahead of its official release. “The vape scene was part of the movie A Very Good Girl,” Dolly shared, adding that the footage was never intended for public viewing at this stage.
Dolly further explained that the leak of the video was likely an unintended slip from someone on the film set. “It must have come from someone on the set who accidentally posted it,” she said, emphasizing that such spoilers can often be leaked without the consent or knowledge of the cast and crew. According to Dolly, this was not something planned or endorsed by the filmmakers, and it was not meant to create any kind of controversy around Kathryn.
Dolly, who has also received significant praise for her role in the internationally acclaimed film Triangle of Sadness, made it clear that the entire situation should be viewed through the lens of their upcoming film’s narrative. She urged everyone to remember that actors often play roles that may not align with their real-life behavior. “What you saw in that video was part of a character she was playing in the film, not who she is as a person,” Dolly emphasized, showing her understanding of the pressures that come with public scrutiny, especially for young stars like Kathryn.
The support from Dolly de Leon comes at a time when Kathryn’s career is reaching new heights. As one of the Philippines’ most beloved actresses, Kathryn has always maintained a spotless reputation, and any controversy surrounding her has often been met with quick clarifications. The leak of the vape video was a rare and unfortunate incident, but with Dolly’s words of support, it appears that Kathryn has the backing of her peers and colleagues in the industry.
“A Very Good Girl” is an eagerly awaited film that promises to deliver a fresh and exciting story, and with Kathryn and Dolly in leading roles, anticipation has been building among fans. The movie, which is expected to showcase a strong narrative, will undoubtedly shed light on the scene in question and provide context for the viral video that has captured so much attention.
With Dolly’s clarification, fans are now better able to understand the situation and focus on the upcoming movie rather than the viral incident. As the film’s release approaches, both actresses continue to focus on their craft, and with the support of their colleagues and fans, they are ready to bring their best to the big screen.
The leak of the video may have caused some initial drama, but it also brings to light the importance of understanding the context behind every scene and the challenges actors face when their work is shared prematurely. As A Very Good Girl nears its release, fans can look forward to seeing Kathryn and Dolly’s performances in what promises to be a powerful and memorable film.
Despite the controversy, De Leon defends Bernardo, stating that she shouldn’t be criticized for vaping and drinking because she is of legal age. The film, directed by Petersen Vargas, focuses on women empowerment and is set to premiere in September. The cast includes Angel Aquino, Chie Filomeno, Jake Ejercito, and others.
The filming for the movie wrapped up in July, and Bernardo describes it as her happiest and most memorable shooting experience.
