However, while many fans cheered her resilience, a segment of the online community mocked her for accepting "smaller" or "non-showbiz" roles.

Tuesday was quick to remind her critics that her roots in the industry were never about instant fame, but about survival and education.

She recalled that her very first hosting job during her college years at the University of the Philippines was, in fact, a bingo event.

That job allowed her to afford school materials, film, and transportation. " Kahit kailan ay hinding hindi ko ikakahiya ang marangal at malinis na trabaho," she stated, emphasizing that the word "only" should never be used to describe a job done with dignity.

She pointed out that even in public universities, the cost of an education is a heavy burden that many parents and students struggle to meet.

Addressing the 200-plus individuals who mocked a specific post about her bingo hosting, Tuesday revealed the "human" side of the event.

She shared how mothers and loyal hotel guests approached her after the show to tell her how much she brightened their day.

For Tuesday, the emotional connection with a live audience is just as valuable as a televised performance.

However, she didn't stop at emotional appeals. In a bold move to silence those looking down on her "hustle," she revealed that her talent fee for the criticized event reached the six-digit mark.

She noted that while bashers spend their time trying to pull others down, she is busy securing the future of her loved ones.

Since her viral appeal for work last February, Tuesday has successfully landed various high-profile gigs, including international cruise ship performances, proving that her versatile "hustle" is paying off in more ways than one.
