Read Jessica Soho's Message to Vice Ganda here

Yesterday in "It's Showtime", Vice Ganda already shared his side in this issue and here is what he said:

"Lahat ng tao nagsalita na at nagbigay ng kanya kanyang opinyon. Itigil na natin 'to. Itigil na natin ang pagbibigay ng opinyon lalo't lalo na hindi niyo alam ang buong nangyari at hindi kayo nanood ng concert."

"Tinawagan ko po kara-karaka kanina si Miss Jessica Soho. Nag-ring ang phone, sa boses pa lang alam ko ng si Miss Jessica Soho. Sabi ko 'Good morning po, pwede ko bang makausap si Miss Jessica Soho?' at sumagot, sabi niya, 'Sino ito para saan ito?' Tapos sabi ko, 'Ako po si Vice Ganda.' Tapos sabi niya, 'Si Jessica Soho ito pasensiya ka na kasi hindi maganda ang timpla ko ngayong araw na ito.' Kaya sabi ko naman 'Okay po. Is it okay po if I will call you later, tomorrow or some other day?' Sabi niya 'I don't think so."

"Ako po ay tao, mukha lang akong kabayo. Hindi ako perpektong komedyante at alam ko sa sarili ko na hindi lahat ng joke ko ay nakakatawa. Mayroong isang tao na magsasabing hindi ako natawa, depende 'yan kung paano mo tatanggapin. Gayon pa man, mula sa puso ko humihingi ako ng paumanhin.

"Sana tapusin na natin ang isyu na ito at pinapanalangin ko na mapatawad ako. Sa lahat ng mga nagsalita sa akin ng masama, lalo na 'yung hindi nakapanood at nakaparinig lang, okay lang. Kung hindi niyo ako naunawaan, ako ang uunawa sa inyo."

Despite of the raged Vice received from some people, the 37 years old comedian still gets outpouring support from his loyal fans in social sites like twitter that made #WeLoveViceGanda hashtag trend yesterday and also today:

He accepted his mistakes, said sorry, willing to wait for the right time #weloveviceganda

@marksalazargma7 please tell the staff at bubble gang to stop with their homophobic jokes too. They are just as insensitive and hurtful. Tnx

I was very disappointed with that Vice Ganda joke about Jessica Soho, but people, get real. We all know it was never about glorifying rape.
— Antoine (@AntoKicksBalls) May 29, 2013

People, the joke was about a bold movie w/a rape scene if Soho were a bold star. Stop making it about rape.

To Vice Ganda, I admire you for being man enough to apologize.rappler.com/entertainment/…

Jessica Soho to Vice Ganda: Rape is not a joke and should never be material for a comedy concert

President for News Programs of GMA Network and GMA News Anchor Jessica Soho has reacted to a joke made by comedian Vice Ganda in his recent stint in "I-Vice Ganda Mo Ako sa Araneta" concert last May 17.

Vice Ganda joked that if Soho were a sexy star in a movie it would be entitled “Tinimbang Ka Ngunit Sobra” and whenever Soho would step on a weighing scale the machine would protest and say, "One at a time, one at a time."

But the thing that made netizens and other GMA Anchors more mad and upset is that Vice Ganda made fun of Soho in a "Gang Rape" scenario.

Watch the video here:

Arnold Clavio Reacted

“Papatulan ko na siya kasi pag di natin siya sinita, hindi natin alam sino pa’ng isusunod niyang biktimahin. Si Nancy Binay noon, tapos si Jessica Soho,”Clavio on his daily morning radio show on DZBB.

“Bakit mo binibiktima ang mga taong seryoso sa trabaho nila? Huwag mo silang kasangkapanin para lang makapagpagpatawa. Bakit hindi taga-diyan sa inyo ang gawin mong subject ng jokes mo? Baki hindi taga-ABS?" he added.

Jessica Soho Speaks Out

In a statement sent to GMA News Online on Tuesday, Soho said: "Rape is not a joke and should never be material for a comedy concert."

"I thank all those who shared my hurt and expressed their support, but this should not be about me but about rape victims who suffer tremendously from this terrible crime. The horrors they go through are unspeakable and should never be taken lightly, especially by way of a cruel joke."
