Heart Evangelista addresses basher calling her 'out of touch privileged'

MANILA, Philippines — Kapuso actress Heart Evangelista addressed an Internet user that called her an "out of touch privileged" in relation to the ongoing anti-racism riots in the United States.

"The out of touch privileged, in the context of race and class, is a problem not only in the U.S., but in the Philippines as well," the Twitter user said in her post while showing a picture of Heart.

"I heard having a tablet or computer is a requirement for online classes so I will do the best I can. I’m sorry I can’t help everyone but I will try to help as much as I can," she wrote. 

Heart said that students who have no tablets just need to message her official Instagram account.

"For those who don’t have tablets for online school please dm me on ig... I will be giving away as much tablets as I can," she wrote in another post. 

Heart shared her concern for unfortunate students that might not have access to education now that the country shifts to online learning due to the novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic.

Physical classes have been discouraged to avoid exposing students and teachers to the virus.
