MANILA, Philippines – Actress Marian Rivera found herself in another controversy that sparked after defending her presidential bet Sen. Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino III from detractors who were questioning the Liberal Party standard-bearer's mental health.
In a television interview in an LP campaign sorty, Rivera declared that Aquino is psychologically fit to lead the nation. She said she knows this because “I’m a psychology.”
Her grammatically incorrect reply drew immediate reactions from the online community. Some poked fun at the actress, while others came to her defense.
In a message board, one ridiculed the actress by replacing her statement with, “I am the long lost daughter of Melanie Marquez.”
Marquez, a former beauty queen, has often been criticized for her lapses in grammar and syntax.
