Controversial Kapamilya actress Jessy Mendiola has always been ridiculed for her physique. Most of the time, she gets bashed for her legs. But despite the social attacks, the actress continues to make her stand against body-shamers, even recently affirming that “pata is life” (legs are life).
The 24-year-old actress recently posted a sexy bikini-clad photo of herself in Boracay. As usual, her photo earned the netizens’ attention. Hence, the flood of comments on her post.
But unlike the usual bashing comments she endures for her legs, a netizen by the handle @itsmeellababe praised the actress and asked her how to get a body such as hers. The netizen then ended her statement with “pata is life.”
Mediola agreed with the commenter, saying, “Pata is life. Pata can take us places.”
