On Wednesday, August 23, renowned actress Kathryn Bernardo addressed a viral video of her that circulated without her knowledge during what seemed to be a work break. The video, which spread on TikTok, led to rampant speculations in July about whether the “A Very Good Girl” actress had tried vaping.
During her media interview, a visibly saddened Bernardo remarked, “Hindi naman nu’n dini-define ang pagkatao ko. It won’t make me any less of a person,” implying that her character is not defined by the video’s content.
Highlighting the invasion of her privacy, she stated, “Sana it won’t happen again, kasi kailangan din namin sometimes ‘yung privacy at personal space namin.” Bernardo’s comments reflect the ongoing debate on celebrities’ right to personal privacy in the age of social media.
