Ayon kay Vice Governor Avanzado, gusto niyang malaman mula kay Isabelle mismo kung ang "#siquiWhores" na ginamit niya ay patungkol sa kanya sarili at sa kanyang kasamang fashion blogger na si Martine Cajucom o sa mga kababayan ni Avanzado sa Siquijor.
“Before jumping into conclusions, I would like to hear directly from Ms. Daza whether the offensive term #siquiWhores is a description of herself and her companion or a judgment to my beloved people of Siquijor.”
Tinuligsa din ni Vice Governor Avanzado ang pagamit ng Kapamilya actress ng mga salitang #siquiWhores—pinagsamang Siquijor at whores—na itinuturing niyang "foul and offensive" word.
Si Avanzado ay nanilbihan bilang konsehal ng 3rddistrict ng Quezon City mula 1998 hanggang 2001.
Noong 2007, nag-migrate sa Amerika si Avanzado, kasama ang misis niyang si Jessa Zaragoza at ang anak nilang si Jayda, ngunit pagkatapos ng ilang taon ay bumalik din sila sa Pilipinas.
Noong 2013 ay nahalal na vice governor ng Siquijor si Avanzado.
Narito ang buong statement ni Vice Governor Avanzado:
“It has come to my attention that the Instagram account @isabelledaza, which appears to be owned by actress Isabelle Diaz Daza, has posted a travel photo with the hashtag #siquiWhores.
“Before jumping into conclusions, I would like to hear directly from Ms. Daza whether the offensive term #siquiWhores is a description of herself and her companion or a judgment to my beloved people of Siquijor.
“As the vice-governor of the province, I am worried on how such a foul and offensive word would damage the reputation of the Siquijodnons in the long-run.
“I believe every citizen of Siquijor deserves a clarification from Ms. Daza on the matter.#siquijor”
