Dani Barretto, a known travel and lifestyle blogger, could not hold herself back as she responded to her bashers comparing her to her sister, Julia.<\/p>\n

Obviously annoyed by some online criticisms that she is not as pretty as her sister, Dani lost her cool saying, \u201cI don\u2019t understand these bashers when they say \u2018ay mas maganda si<\/em> Julia sa’yo<\/em> (Oh, Julia is prettier than you).\u2019 Ay bakit nagpapagandahan ba kami? Kailangan pareho talaga kaming mukha? ‘Di pwede maiba? Ikakamatay ko ba kung hindi ako si<\/em> Julia (Why, are we supposed to outdo each other’s looks? Is it required for us to have the same face? Can’t there be a difference? Will it kill me if I am not Julia)?\u201d she asked.<\/p>\n

\u201cGirl, mag-tahi ka na lang or<\/em> mag-jogging ka. Masyado kang<\/em> hater (just sew or jog. You are too much of a hater),\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

It was unknown who Dani was referring to in her tweets as she did not mention any name. However, she was not yet finished scoffing her critics as she posted another tweet saying, \u201cKung maka-<\/em>bash kala mo<\/em> life and death situation ‘pag hindi ko kamukha mga kapatid ko eh <\/em>(They bash as if\u00a0it is\u00a0a life\u00a0or death situation if I do not look like my siblings).\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cCan we all just mind our own business and be happy with our lives? You bashers should try it. It\u2019s good for the soul,\u201d she continued.<\/p>\n

Dani is the eldest child of Marjorie Barretto with actor Kier Legaspi, while Julia is one of Marjorie\u2019s daughters with ex-husband Dennis Padilla.<\/p>\n

The two sisters are known to be very close to each other, which is evident on Julia\u2019s tweet as she came to her sister\u2019s defense after seeing Dani\u2019s posts.<\/p>\n

\u201cHow could anyone bash someone whose soul is as beautiful and as kind as yours?\u201d Julia said.<\/p>\n

\u201cDon\u2019t let them get to you. You\u2019re beautiful let no one tell you otherwise,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

Appreciating her sister\u2019s gesture, Dani replied: \u201cI love you.\u201d<\/p>\n

Aside from Julia, singer Moira Dela Torre and actress Janine Gutierrez also expressed support to Dani as both replied to her tweets yesterday.<\/p>\n

Moira said, \u201cI second this. Hi you two I miss you!\u201d while Janine replied, \u201cGirllllllllll your tweets are the best!!!!!!! I\u2019m a fan.\u201d<\/p>\n

This was not the first time Dani became the subject of an online vitriol.<\/p>\n

Just two months ago, Dani stood up against netizens who body-shamed her after she posted photos of her in swimsuit when she made a quick trip to Siargao.<\/p>\n

\u201cGrabe<\/em>, 2018 na may<\/em> body shaming pa din <\/em>(Wow, it is already 2018 but body shaming still exists)? Why can\u2019t you all just worry about your own body\/weight? Masarap kumain, at hindi ako titigil dahil natatabaan kayo sa ‘kin <\/em>(I love to eat, and I won\u2019t stop just because you think I\u2019m fat),\u201d<\/em> she said in a Tweet.<\/p>\n

\u201cKung gusto niyo mag-<\/em>diet, eh \u2018di<\/em> go. Bakit kailangan pati ako? Mag-di-<\/em>diet ako ‘pag gusto ko <\/em>(If you want to lose weight, then go. Why would you include me? I will go on a diet if I want to). <\/em>For now, FOOD IS LIFE,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
