Angel Locsin shares her thoughts about being seen as a real-life hero and dealing with online bashers!
15 years as an AVON ambassador, Angel Locsin has had her own line of perfume, designed her own bags for a collaboration with Avon Fashions, and a face of Avon True. For Avon X Cosmo’s Watch Me Now Series, the actress shares lessons she learned about love, opens up about using her endorsements as a platform to other people, her hopes for the Philippines as we continue to face the pandemic, shares her thoughts about her being seen as a real-life hero, and dealing with online bashers.
Over the past decade, as Angel Locsin continue to make a name of her own through her impeccable portrayal of characters on TV and on the big screen, people also love her for always rising to the occasion at times of distress. More than being Darna onscreen 15 years ago, she is now being seen as a real-life hero. Her contribution to the society and her initiative of helping others made her one of 2019’s Forbes Asia’s Heroes of Philantropy. Despite the fact that she can really be considered as a real-life hero for everything that she’s done, the actress revealed that she doesn’t see herself as a hero.
"Sa akin naman, I don't see myself as a hero, hindi ako comfortable 'pag sinasabing hero ako kasi madami rin talaga ang tumutulong during this time. Siguro mas nabibigyan ng pansin yung work that I do dahil artista ako. Pero maraming mga individuals, organizations, and people who are doing their part and nakakatuwa 'yon."
Though Angel Locsin has the purest intention in helping others she wasn’t spared with criticisms. Some people always have something bad to say especially when she speak her mind about some controversial issues and when asked how she deal with them, she said “Minsan, 'di ko narin pinapansin ito kasi hindi healthy ang ganung environment. Mahalaga na you know your worth and you believe in yourself. Know that in life meron talagang times and merong mga people who will try to pull you down, but trust na you are greater than these bullies or these bashers and may maio-offer kang special to the world”
Angel Locsin is like no other, each day we can see more and more reasons to be amazed and inspired by this amazing woman.
