Graceful as ever, First Lady Liza Araneta-Marcos responded to the “fake news” amid the tension within the Marcos family.

Mrs. Marcos carved out time to meet with a group of Hollywood filmmakers who are doing a movie in the Philippines.

As a patron of the arts, she wants not just the local film industry to thrive but foreign films as well.

“Sometimes things happen for a reason. The other day, I had the pleasure of meeting a group of foreigners — a producer, director, and actors who are filming a movie in the Philippines. I was so kilig when they told me they were hell-bent on bringing Hollywood to our country. Why? ‘Because you Filipinos are so genuine and kind,’” she wrote in a social media post.

The First Lady was curious about the movie’s script.

“We then talked about the script and I bit my tongue because I wanted to say ‘Welcome to entertainment — Pinoy style!’” she said.

“Only in the Pinas will you find a plot full of holes and actors who can’t deliver and a climax that leaves entire communities underwater,” she said.

Her remark came in the wake of an ongoing political scandal that has dragged President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. into alleged anomalies in flood control projects — a claim brought to light by former lawmaker Zaldy Co in a “bombshell” revelation last week.

Malacañang has debunked Co’s claims.

‘Let’s not even talk about FAKE news’

On Monday, Senator Imee Marcos tagged the First Lady as an “enabler” of the alleged drug habit of the President.

As of this writing, Mrs. Marcos has yet to issue a response to the allegation, but has remained firm in fighting fake news.

On Wednesday, the First Lady disproved a social media post quoting her supposed response to her sister-in-law’s tirade.

“… and speaking of FAKE NEWS… welcome to entertainment, Pinoy style,” she was supposed to have said with matching laughing emojis.

“I won’t argue with you anymore because, after all, you’re my husband’s sister and I respect my mommy (Imelda). Pero yung statements mo fake, kasing fake ng mukha mong retokada.” (But your statements are fake, as fake as your retouched face).

The Presidential Communications Office has since tagged this as fake news.
