Nadine Lustre urged help for “Odette” victims.
NADINE LUSTRE — The actress and singer on Friday urged help for victims of typhoon “Odette”, saying that she had been “frantic all day” amidst the wide devastation in parts of Mindanao and Visayas.
The actress had been shuttling between Manila and Siargao, where she resided for months or weeks at a time. It wasn’t immediately clear whether she’s on the island when “Odette” hit and wreaked havoc there.
She had been sharing information about donation channels and relief drives through her social media pages since Thursday.
Nadine shared last Friday that she had “been frantic all day”, saying that her stress hormone “hasn’t been this high in ages”.
“I’ve been frantic all day. My cortisol level hasn’t been this high in ages,” Nadine tweeted. “I can’t even think straight. Please, let’s all help everyone affected by Typhoon Odette.”

that trip to the airport wasn’t fun either.
