It looks like fans are unhappy about Janella Salvador not making the front cover of Star Magic's catalogue. The cover features the following celebs: Daniel Padilla, Kathryn Bernardo, Joshua Garcia, Gerald Anderson, Kim Chiu, Zanjoe Marudo, Arjo Atayde, Angelica Panganiban, Enchong Dee, Shaina Magdayao, John Arcilla, and Jane De Leon.
As of July 9, 2023, "JANELLA DESERVES BETTER" was a top trending topic on Twitter, with over 6,000 tweets from netizens. Fans of Janella aired their frustrations on the platform, praising Janella for her acting and singing props, as well as a list of her most notable TV shows and movies.
"OG baby ng Star Magic si Jea and she is an all-rounder since the beginning, talented and mahal ng lahat. Just wanted to defend our girl here," wrote one netizen.
Another netizen pointed out how Janella has been successful so far without being in a love team. "Janella rose to the top, not because of a love team! She made a name for herself by her talents and dedication to her craft!"
A fan also clarified that the issue was not that Jane De Leon and not Janella made the cover, but that they both deserved to be there.
"Just to be clear, it's not a competition between Jane and Janella. If you ask me, they both deserve to be there. It's just a fact that Janella deserves better. Hope they give credit where credit is due. STOP MISSING THE POINT. Janella deserved to be there, too."
Netizens speculate Janella was also unhappy about her non-inclusion on the cover, after she posted a cryptic tweet.
"Ah k. Noted," read Janella's tweet, followed by a star emoji and a magic wand emoji.
Ah k. Noted. ????????
