Social media personality Shuvee Etrata faced backlash after netizens resurfaced an old video where she reacted “eww” to Vice Ganda.

Another meme she previously shared, involving Vice Ganda and Coco Martin, also circulated online, tied to controversies surrounding ABS-CBN’s franchise shutdown.

Etrata explains comments
Etrata clarified her “eww” reaction meant they were both girls, stressing she never intended disrespect or insult toward Vice Ganda.

She emphasized memes featuring Vice were purely humorous, denying harboring ill feelings, and reaffirming admiration for the comedian’s longstanding entertainment industry career.

Addressing allegations about ABS-CBN, Etrata insisted she opposed the shutdown, citing earlier tweets describing the network as cultural and institutionally significant.

She refuted accusations of celebrating the closure, arguing critics deliberately misrepresented her past posts to malign her reputation unfairly online.

Steps taken after backlash
Etrata temporarily deactivated her X account, prioritizing mental health, as overwhelming negativity followed circulation of those resurfaced materials.

She confirmed reaching out to Vice Ganda, hoping for direct communication to clarify context personally and repair unnecessary damage caused.

Admits regrets, promises growth
Etrata admitted regretting youthful online behavior, saying she learned accountability, and now carefully considers jokes, memes, and public statements shared.

She expressed desire for people to judge her current self, not mistakes from adolescence, highlighting growth and commitment toward mindfulness.

Public reacts differently
Supporters sympathized with Etrata, saying everyone deserves second chances, while critics demanded stronger accountability despite her current efforts for redemption.

The controversy sparked larger conversations on cancel culture, accountability, and how old social media posts permanently affect public figures today.

Moving forward
Etrata vowed to improve continuously, stating she would embrace criticism constructively, prove maturity, and create respectful, responsible online content consistently.

Despite ongoing controversy, she remains hopeful reconciliation with Vice Ganda will restore goodwill and allow career opportunities without unnecessary baggage.
