Lovi Poe has learned to handle criticisms about her body, specifically negative comments about her flat chest. In an interview with PEP.ph on May 21, 2024, the actress admitted that undergoing breast augmentation surgery slipped her mind.
She even confessed that there were moments when she felt jealous of those with fuller chests that complimented side books, playfully saying, "Sana all!"
"I remember before, they were telling me, ‘You should have your breasts done. Like, 'Really?" the actress said. Despite contemplating it, Lovi stood firm in her belief that she wouldn't be easily swayed. She stated that she has always been someone who doesn't care about conforming to others' expectations.
"So what if I'm like this? [Yung] stubborn talaga ako. And I think it helped me a lot [the mindset]. I don't know kung saan ko nakuha yung mindset na yun," the actress iterated.
"Thankful ako, kasi now, parang I just realized na what makes you different, what makes unique, it's gonna make you stand out. It's gonna make you shine," Lovi highlighted.
In another interview with PEP.ph, Lovi revealed people doubted she'd be successful in showbiz because of her body. "I remember before when I was starting, I was told I was never gonna make it because I was dark-skinned," Lovi opened up. "I was never gonna make it because I am flat-chested. Yung mga ganoon."
Lovi is proud that the naysayers did not stop her from doing great in show business. She said that as long as you do your job well and take care of yourself, things will come into their place so there is no reason to put yourself down.
