MANILA - Actress and senatorial candidate Alma Moreno on Wednesday admitted she was hurt by the parody account that ridiculed her on social media site Twitter.

"Masyado naman ako pinaglalaruan. Masyado naman ako binabastos na. Masakit," Moreno told Jobert Sucaldito and Ahwel Paz on DZMM's "Mismo."

"Ano ba naman to? Talo na nga ako, ano pa nginingitngit nito? Bakit kailangan ako maliin nang maliin? Kung anu-ano pinaglalagay. Tama na!" she added.

The parody Twitter account surfaced after Moreno’s much talked-about interview on ANC’s “Headstart” hosted by Karen Davila.

"Kaya nga sabi ko, wala sigurong magawa eh. Di ba dapat kung wala ka magawa, manahimik ka na lang, di ba? Para sa akin, ipagdadasal ko na lang s'ya. Bahala na ang Panginoon sa kanya. Anyway, para problemahin ko pa s'ya, hindi na no," an emotional Moreno said.

The senatorial candidate said that she had taken actions to have the account taken down.

"Ni-report na ni Wynwyn yan. Si Wynwyn, kahapon, sabi nya, 'Mama, akin na nga ID mo.' Nagpadala na rin s'ya ng dalawang klaseng ID ko (to Twitter)," Moreno revealed.

As of Wednesday night, the account @LovelinessAlma had been suspended.

Meanwhile, Moreno denied that she was depressed by the outcome of the senatorial elections.

"Akala nga ng lahat masyado daw depressed ako, dahil daw natalo. Sabi ko hindi, maluwag kong tinanggap na ako ay hindi sinuwerte," revealed Moreno.

"Kasi ang mahirap, dalawa ang hinawakan ko. Yung kampanya ko, saka yung kampanya ni Vandolph. Nung mga bandang huli na, nag-concentrate ako kay Vandolph na," Moreno admitted.

The actress-turned politician revealed that she was happy that her son with Comedy King Dolphy, Vandolph, won as a councilor in Parañaque.

"At the same time, natutuwa ako dahil nanalo ang anak ko, si Vandolph, sa Paranaque," Moreno gleefully said.

The former Parañaque councilor and first lady also said that she will continue to help the needy despite no longer holding any public office.

"Hindi ako titigil sa pagtulong. Kung ano lang ang kaya ko itulong, tutulong at tutulong ako. Hindi porke't wala ka na sa posisyon, di ka na tutulong," Moreno said.

She said she will still be visible in Parañaque.

Moreno also took the opportunity to thank her supporters who voted for her in the recent senatorial elections.

"Nakakatuwa di ba? Wala ako ad sa TV. Wala ako ad sa radio. Wala ako 'yung media. Wala ako lahat. Di ako nakasabay. Pero meron pa rin ako. Number 20 pa rin ako. Nakakatuwa pa rin. Nakakataba ng puso," More no said.

However, based on ABS-CBN's Halalan 2016 election tally, Moreno is currently at number 24 with 2,358,970 votes. The data is sourced from the Comelec Transparency Server, which as of 1:09 a.m. Thursday represents 95.67% of election returns.
