On 26 July, 23-year-old [Jessy Mendiola] (http://says.com/ph/showbiz/these-8-photos-prove-that-jessy-deserves-to-be-the-sexiest-woman-in-ph) has been heralded the "Sexiest Of Them All" by the bestselling men's magazine in the country, FHM
"It feels surreal. At least now we have proof that everyone can be sexy. You can be sexy, I can be sexy. And I think this is a good venue to send a message that it's about time we welcome something different, that **everyone can be sexy**. Parang si Pia Wurtzbach lang, 'confidently beautiful with a heart.' Ako naman, 'confidently sexy with a heart,'" said Mendiola during the party, according to [The Philippine Star] (http://www.philstar.com/entertainment/2016/07/30/1608108/jessy-sizzles-fhms-sexiest).

After Mendiola dropped these words, "Parang si Pia Wurtzbach lang, 'confidently beautiful with a heart.' Ako naman, 'confidently sexy with a heart'," bashers started venting out (for reasons that we don't know of) online

Mendiola took the spotlight to address the unhealthy, on-going cycle of body-shaming insults that are making rounds since the invention of [nachos] (http://says.com/ph/foodtrip/craving-for-chips-know-what-your-food-cravings-really-tell-about-your-health) (mmm… nachos).
**You go, girl!**

Miss Universe 2015 [Pia Wurtzbach] (http://says.com/ph/showbiz/pia) killed the fire by tweeting this positive feedback on Mendiola's statement:
On the other hand, even Broadway star [Lea Salonga] (http://says.com/ph/kulture/quotes-on-womanhood) have had enough of reading negative posts on her online feed, so she posted this on her page. Quoting:
"Sexy has nothing to do with the outer shell and all to do with what's in you."
All that we can say is, people of the same feather do flock together!
