Comedian Tia Pusit clarified that she did not get grilled or "barbequed" as alleged in circulating text messages and write-ups.

Rather, the veteran simply had her warts cauterized.

“Nagpa-cauterize ako ng warts. Nasunog ang buong katawan ko pati buong mukha ko,” she relayed on “Showbiz Central.”

She admitted to have been irritated by such inaccurate reportage.

“Napikon ako. Nagulat lang ako kasi hindi maganda 'yong pagkaka-email. Kesyo hindi ako puwedeng humarap sa tao dahil sunog ako. Sana puntahan niyo muna 'yong taong concern bago kayo naglalabas [nang ganun],” said she.

Tia Pusit admitted, though, that she will undergo even a painful procedure in the name of beautification.

“Sabi ng doktor ko, ‘tiisin mo kung gusto mong gumanda’,” she said.
