Jake Cuenca, a seasoned Kapamilya actor, recently drew attention on social media after addressing a netizen's "anyare" comment about his noticeable weight loss in the video.

On Tuesday, June 24, Jake posted a hilarious and lighthearted dance video on his social media, where he was seen grooving to a 'budots'-inspired beat, one that had his fans laughing hard.

While the post amused many, one netizen was more curious than entertained, asking the actor what had happened to his expression, "Anyare sa facial expression mo, Jake? Ang payat mo na."

Jake, keeping his cool, took the opportunity to explain the reason behind his drastic change, replying, "I lost 25 POUNDS for my other series WLB. I'm playing a convict taping both shows simultaneously." The same commenter eventually responded with admiration and confession, "Huhu, still pogi but ang payat mo na. Palaman ka po. Ugh, long-time crush since Majika."

Amid his weight loss, some still praised Jake's looks online, "Lalong pumogi ang tatay ko!"

Jake's commitment to physically transforming himself for his roles not only highlights his versatility but also his dedication to the craft of acting, proving why he remains a respected actor.
