Ivana Alawi Spills the Truth on Political Endorsements

Ivana Alawi Gets Candid About Political Endorsements: ‘Napakaarte at napaka-choosy ko’

IVANA ALAWI – Content creator Ivana Alawi openly shared her thoughts on endorsing politicians, admitting, “Napakaarte at napaka-choosy ko” when it comes to giving her support.



Vlogger and actress Ivana Alawi has once again made it clear that she has no plans to enter politics, despite receiving numerous offers for political endorsements. Speaking at a thanksgiving party for entertainment media at Vinta Modern Cantina in Quezon City on March 7, Ivana openly shared her views on political matters.

She acknowledged that many politicians have approached her for endorsements, but she remains highly selective in making such decisions. “Pero napakaarte ko at napaka-choosy ko pagdating sa pulitiko,” she admitted.

Ivana emphasized that her considerations go beyond personal benefit. “Hindi naman ‘yan para sa akin o ikakaganda ko o para sa pamilya ko. Ito ay para sa Pilipinas, para sa mga kababayan natin. Ano’ yung makakapagpaganda sa bansa natin,” she explained.

When it comes to financial offers for endorsements, Ivana clarified that money is not her driving force. “Kasi, kung pera, e ‘di sana lahat kinuha ko, e, ‘di ang yaman-yaman ko na. Hindi, e, hindi siya sa pera. It’s what do you believe in and who do you think will make the country a better place.”

She also stressed that she carefully evaluates politicians before showing support. “Sa mga senator, congressman, napaka-choosy ko kasi baka gusto lang niya umupo para sa sarili niya hindi naman para sa ating mga kababayan,” she pointed out.

As for her own political aspirations, Ivana remained firm in her decision not to run for office. Speculation arose last year about her potential candidacy in the 2025 elections, but she dismissed the idea. “Bakit naman ako tatakbo sa ngayon? Wala ako alam sa politics, wala ako alam sa paggawa ng batas. And siguro kung papasok man ako sa ganiyan, dapat mag-aral man lang ako ng three to four years, because I don’t want to put our country at risk,” she explained.

Despite her dedication to helping others, Ivana made it clear that she doesn’t see holding a political position as a requirement for making a difference. “Actually, ang daming nagsasabi na, ‘Tumakbo ka, tumakbo ka, ang dami mong pinamimigay.’ Hindi naman ako namimigay para tumakbo at hindi mo rin kailangan tumakbo para makapagbigay,” she said.

In conclusion, she reiterated her belief that public service should be about making real changes. “Ang pagtakbo talaga is for the country. ‘Yung may mga magaganda kang gagawing batas para mapaganda ang bansa natin. Kailangan natin lumaban at lumevel up, ‘no? So ‘yun, hindi talaga ako tatakbo kasi wala naman akong alam diyan.”

With her firm stance and genuine commitment to helping others, Ivana Alawi continues to inspire her fans, proving that one doesn’t need a political title to make a meaningful impact.
