Actress Nadine Lustre made an impassioned appeal to the public ahead of the midterm elections on Monday, May 12, 2025.

In an Instagram post, Nadine shared her thoughts as Filipinos prepared to vote for senators, congressmen, party-list representatives, and local officials, including mayors and councilors.

"Isang boto lang mula sa bawat isa sa atin — pero kapag pinagsama-sama, puwede nitong itulak ang bansa sa panibagong direkson," mused Nadine.

"Isa itong bihirang pagkakataon. Huwag sana nating sayangin."

NADINE LUSTRE: ALL THAT GLITTERS IS NOT GOLD

Nadine emphasized the importance of being wise and discerning when choosing which candidates to vote for.

She stressed, "Huwag tayong papadala sa ganda ng salita, ningning ng campaign ads at pagpapakitang tao ng mga kandidato natin."

Nadine expressed concern over how those in power often exploit people’s hardships and suffering to advance their own agendas.

"Hindi dapat nabibili ang boto — pero sa bawat halagang iniaabot, may kinabukasang isinusuko. Hindi patas."

Continued Nadine, "Dahil ang totoo, hindi natin kailangan ng lider na magaling magsalita — kailangan natin ng lider na marunong makinig at tunay na may malasakit sa ating lahat."

SAME OLD RESULTS

Nadine spoke about the country’s ongoing lack of progress, which she attributed to the repeated election of the same leaders.

"Mahal ko ang Pilipinas, at alam kong karadapat-dapat tayong lahat sa isang mas patas at maayos na sistema," remarked Nadine.

"Pero minsan, hindi ko ring maiwasang isipin — kaya siguro tayo paulit-ulit na nasa ganitong sitwasyon ay dahil paulit-ulit din nating pinipili ang parehong landas — kahit alam nating may mas maayos na daan."

Nadine urged voters to be more empathetic toward others, their struggles, and the causes they are fighting for.

"Pangarap ko na balang araw, hindi na lang ilang porsyento ng lipunan ang maayos ang buhay," mentioned Nadine.

"Na lahat tayo ay may dignidad, may pagkakataon, at may boses.

"Na ang Pilipinas ay para sa lahat — hindi lang para sa may kaya, kundi para rin sa mga matagal nang nakikibaka sa tahimik.

"Magsimula tayo isa isang boto. Sa isang desisyong tapat, bukas ang mata, at may puso para sa kapwa," said Nadine.

Nadine is one of the few celebrities who are vocal about their political beliefs, openly endorsing, supporting, and campaigning for candidates she believes in.
