Lotlot de Leon is now going viral and being talked about on social media, following what appears to be her reaction to John Rendez’s recent interview with Julius Babao on his YouTube channel.

In that interview, John Rendez shared stories about his 34-year relationship with the Superstar Nora Aunor. He revealed that ever since they met, they lived together under one roof. He spoke about their ups and downs, emphasizing that he was the only one who never left Nora during tough times. According to John, Nora had several near-death experiences but miraculously survived each time. That’s why he didn’t expect their last meeting would truly be the final one—he had grown used to her always recovering whenever she was hospitalized.

John also mentioned Lotlot, Ian, and all of Nora’s children, saying that when the Superstar loved someone, he loved them too. Despite the deep sorrow he feels over Nora’s passing, John expressed that he now feels unwelcome—especially since, as Julius Babao pointed out, he was noticeably absent during the Superstar’s funeral.

John was only seen grieving and in tears after the burial, explaining that he didn’t view Nora in the casket for one last time out of respect and to avoid causing drama for her children.

Following the interview, Lotlot de Leon made a cryptic post that appeared to respond to John Rendez’s comments about the Superstar’s children. Lotlot wrote:
“People who use other people as stepping stones will one day lose their balance.”
Though she did not mention any names, many believe the message was aimed at John Rendez—implying he may have used Nora Aunor to elevate his career.

Here are some reactions from netizens:
According to anonymous commenters on Fashion Pulis:

“There are many things about Nora’s family that only they know. But John stayed with Nora for over 30 years. That means they really loved and cared for each other. Nora loved John, and maybe Lotlot just couldn’t accept that.”
“Some men are emotionally dependent on older women—maybe John is one of them. People may misinterpret that as being a user, but maybe he just needed moral support from Nora.”

Another netizen said:

“Most definitely yes. As a certified ‘Mosang’ (gossip girl), I wish they would just speak out—especially Lotlot. If that post is really for John, Miss Lotlot, you might as well say it directly. Your mom has passed. If there’s going to be a fight, at least no one can hurt her anymore. Ate Guy (Nora Aunor) is finally at peace. Even if the truth comes out now, she’s already resting. Thank you for watching.”
