"Wala pong nangyaring gano'n talaga. Napanood ko 'yung video ni ate Sarah na umiiyak, I was at home with my family," she said, contrary to the accusation that she was seen laughing as she watched the same video while on the set of "Umagang Kay Ganda," ABS-CBN's morning magazine program.

A version of the story alleged Morissette was inside an "Umagang Kay Ganda" dressing room with fellow singer Angeline Quinto, when they both supposedly ridiculed their "ASAP" co-star's meltdown.

She also brought up the fact that one of the show's hosts, Amy Perez, already denied that she has an assistant or companion, who, according to the rumor, witnessed Morissette and Quinto's behavior.

The "Akin Ka Na Lang" hitmaker lamented the fact that despite the lack of evidence backing the accusation, some people on social media were quick to believe and make snap judgment.

Like Quinto, who broke down in tears amid the mudslinging from so-called fans of Geronimo, Morissette said there have been "people around me who have been comforting me naman, texts from co-artists na nagsabi na sana OK lang daw ako."

"Of course, I feel for her, because I am in that same nature of work. I also get tired, I also have moments like that, na feeling ko, pagod na pagod na ako, pero I still have to do it for my audience, for my craft. I owe it to them, to the people who work hard to make the show possible," she said.
