MANILA – Neri Naig admitted that the leaking of the video showing her intimate moments with boyfriend Chito Miranda is by far the most depressing moment of her life.
She, however, chooses to just shrug it off and embrace positivity instead of dwelling on the issue.
“Mum lang ako about it,” she told entertainment site Pep.ph. “Embrace mo lang talaga yung positivity, positive na outlook.”
Having been part of the showbiz industry, Naig said she is aware that she cannot please everybody and some people will just continue to comment on the things which they do not like about her.
“Kasi may gawin ka mang maganda o may gawin ka mang hindi [maganda], you can’t please everybody naman. So instead of you checking kung ano yung mga sinasabi ng tao, yung mga taong nagma-matter sa 'yo, yun na lang ang i-embrace mo,” she said.
The former “Star Circle Quest” finalist said what matters to her are what her loved ones say about her.
“Once na yung nagsabi sa 'yo ay yung taong pinakamamahal mo, doon ka mag-breakdown, kasi kilala ka nila personally and alam mong totoo. Alam mo naman sa sarili mo kung tunay o hindi. So, ‘yon lang, ‘yon lang ang pinanghahawakan ko,” she said.
Despite the controversies surrounding her relationship with Miranda, Naig said she takes comfort knowing that her family is behind her and she is not stepping on someone.
"Basta alam kong wala akong inaapakang tao, okay na ako. Ginagawa kong joke na lang. Thankful naman ako na sobrang okay ang support ng mga tao sa paligid ko. Talagang nirerespeto nila ako kapag nakikita ko sila,” she said.
Last September, another video clip purportedly showing the Parokya ni Edgar frontman and Naig, having sex, made the rounds on the Internet.
The clip, which is 11 minutes and 20 seconds long, is different from the first video that spread in August.
