Sa Instagram post ni Ronnie Liang, isiniwalat niya ang kanyang pagkadismaya nang alukin siya na maging bida ng isang porn film, bagama't hindi niya sinabi kung sino ang nag-offer sa kanya.
Kasama sa IG post ang topless photo niya na kuha sa isang pool at nag-viral nga ang naturang post sa Twitter.
Pag-amin ng mang-aawit, "I got pissed off and disappointed. I was offered and urged to do PORN movies... Thanks, but NO thanks po."
Pagpapatuloy niya, "I did not sacrifice and study hard all these years only to show my private parts in public—Nakakahiya! Without trying to brag, I am already an Army Reservist Officer, a pilot, a Master's degree holder, a brand ambassador of some companies, and other government agencies.
"Madami pa po akong puwedeng gawin at 'pag ginawa ko 'yan (paghuhubad), madaming mawawala sa akin."
Paglilinaw pa niya, "Most importantly, please understand that I am a Christian and a follower of Christ. Whatever I have achieved and everything I do is for the honor and glory of God. I am not perfect, super rich, or super famous, but to me, fame and money are only temporary.
"Self-respect and the respect of my colleagues in and out of showbiz are forever more vital to me.
Okay lang naman po kung wala akong movie or project. Sa iba n'yo na lang po ibigay ang lead role na 'yan."
Panghuli pa niya, "Hanggang ganito lang po ang puwede kong ipakita."
Ang wa-wild naman ng comments ng ibang Marites na nakisawsaw sa isyu.
"I admired Ronnie Liang sa achievements niya, pero sana, simpleng 'Pass po ako sa ganyang project' puwede nang sagot. Bakit ang haba ng litanya niya?"
"Why the need to post it kung ayaw naman pala? Ang dami pang sinabi, gusto lang magpapansin."
"I like Ronnie, a man with good values who is trying to live life the right way. We need more people like him," papuri naman ng isa.
Pero mas maraming nega comments like, "Sex-work shaming si kuya."
"Parang... hindi naman siya porn star material... Face or body are waley."
"Oh, sa actor na tatanggap ng role na in-offer sa kanya, 'lam mo na. Wala ka raw self-respect! Hindi ka kasi Christian! Christians lang ang may self-respect!"
