Former Pinoy Big Brother Lucky Season 7 housemate Jesi Corcuera, who is a transman, is happy for Jake Zyrus, formerly known as Charice Pempengco, for sharing his transitioning stage in an episode of Gandang Gabi Vice.
“Some men are born in their bodies [while] others have to fight for it. That’s us,” Jesi tweeted.
“Naiiyak ako dahil alam ko kung ano ang pakiramdam at pinagdadaanan ni Jake Zyrus,” he added.
Jake soon thanked him on Twitter.
