Beauty queen-turned-actress Mary Jean "MJ" Lastimosa justified her criticism on the Hollywood film "Barbie" after facing outrage online.

Lastimosa complained on Twitter about wasting 600 pesos on the "sobrang waley" picture by Oscar-nominated director Greta Gerwig, comparing it to a school project film. She later deleted the tweet after receiving backlash from netizens.

Users responded to her, pointing out the film's accomplishments, some of which the Miss Universe Philippines 2014 responded herself.

In reaction to the continuous criticism, Lastimosa posted a thread defending her views on "Barbie."

"Wait lang naman sobrang online bullying naman agad kayo. Nakakatakot naman magka-opinion dito minumura nako ng iba sa ibang socmed ko only because I did not like a film?" Lastimosa said.

She admitted to enjoying Gerwig's previous two films, "Little Women" and "Lady Bird," and wondered why she was being chastised for not enjoying "Barbie.

Lastimosa said that it was only her opinion and had nothing to do with being a feminist, which is the only part she likes, giving the monologue of America Ferrera's character as an example, and felt that Will Ferrell's role should not have been in the picture.

She reacted to several users who applauded her for being forthright with her views, conceding that she could have framed her statements better.

The beauty queen even called the national costume she wore to the Miss Universe 2014 competition—a white terno ball gown covered with pink and yellow flowers and a matching floral tiara—a "school project," especially when others compared it to a birthday cake.
