Nagpasalamat ang aktress-social media personality na si Donnalyn Bartolome kay Supreme Court Associate Justice Marvic Leonen matapos umano nitong burahin ang tweet na nagpapatutsada sa kontrobersyal niyang "kanto-style birthday party" na inulan ng iba't ibang reaksiyon at komento ng mga netizen.
"Instead of pretending to be poor through a lavish kanto themed party, why not understand what it is to be poor and find ways and means to assist," ani Leonen.
"To be poor is not something to celebrate by the rich. It is insensitive. Just saying," dagdag pa niya.

Agad namang sinagot ni Donnalyn ang mga bumatikos sa kaniya, sa pamamagitan ng Facebook post noong Agosto 18.
"Para sa mga Pa-Woke but are sleep walking. Kilala n'yo ako, I apologize when I’m wrong but when I’m not, I will fight for what I believe in," ani Donnalyn.
Nitong Linggo, Agosto 21, mukhang panatag na ang loob ni Donnalyn nang burahin na nga ni Assoc. Justice Leonen ang kaniyang tweet.
"Today I was given the gift of peace. 🤍 Supreme Court Justice Marvic Leonen deleted his tweet regarding my Kanto celebration and I appreciate it, please stop spreading hate against the man. It takes a big, kind-hearted person especially in his position, to take back or retract something he said because of the power they hold."
"I’m not very proud of my reaction either. I’m open to criticisms with regards to me as an artist, I guess just not my personal experiences in life like my kanto celebrating history."
"Thank you SC Justice Marvic Leonen. You have my respect, Sir."
"Wishing everyone peace today and the rest of our tomorrows. Don’t let the world change your heart, let your heart change the world."
