Prior to this, Jennylyn criticized Senator Ronald "Bato" dela Rosa's statement on the 11,000 ABS-CBN employees who lost their jobs due to the network's franchise denial by Congress. 

Dela Rosa earlier said that the Kapamilya employees need just to look for another job to support their families. 

"Sabi nga nila 'To lead by example.' Baka naman gusto niyo pong mauna?" Jennylyn wrote.
