Actress Maxene Magalona told netizens to refrain from gossip especially on her social media pages.
In her Instagram post, she said it is not polite to ask people about their personal lives, “especially if you do not know each other personally.”
Refering to some people who have been asking about her personal life on social media, she said, “Even if you DO know them, you should give them space and wait for them to open up to you instead of prying and wanting to invade their privacy.”
Magalona noted that celebrities don’t owe their private stories to the public and, ” We all have the right to choose when and who we will share our stories with.”
Daughter of the late rap icon Francis M said social media should be a safe space where anyone can express themselves and “choosing only what we want to share.”
Magalona said, “Gossip is a form of energy leak. It’s better to spend your energy praying rather than gossiping. Inner peace is achieved when we focus on ourselves and not on the lives of others. God is love. If you’re wondering why I am happy and at peace, it’s because I strengthen my connection to God every day. I even sing to Him when I’m overflowing with gratitude.”
She told people to not come to her page for gossip and “Come to my page for God.”
