Roxanne Cabañero denied that she was paid by Cedric Lee's camp to file the rape charge against Vhong Navarro.
Cabañero was the second to cry rape against the comedian-TV host, after Deniece Cornejo filed the same last January 29.
But does Cabañero personally know Lee and Cornejo?
"Hindi ko sila kilala," the Cebuana told ABS-CBN News. "'Yung kaso ko, kaso ko. Sa kanila, sa kanila."
And when asked if she was paid to come out, she retorted: "Hindi ko nga siya kilala. Paano niya ako babayaran?"
Cabañero said she was inspired by what Cornejo did, and it motivated her to fight.
"Na-inspire ako [kay Deniece]. Nung nalaman ko 'yung istorya, everything, lahat ng nangyari, nag-flashback sa akin," she said.
She also confessed that she has lived the last four years in fear and she's tired doing so.
"I cannot keep this forever, and I've been living in fear for four years. Pagod na 'kong matakot," she said.
The Venus Raj-lookalike said she was among the Slimmer's World Miss Bikini 2010 contestants who went to It's Showtime as guest on April 24, 2010. A staff of the show came up to her and said Navarro was asking for her number.
"Later after that, may nag-text sa akin, sabi, 'Hi, eto si Vhong. How are you, pretty?' Syempre kinilig ako, until nag-invite na nga s'ya sa 'kin lumabas. Ayun he picked me up. Sinabi n'ya sa 'kin, 'Let's go somewhere private.' And I was shocked. I'm like, 'What? I thought we're gonna have coffee?' Syempre kinabahan na ako. He pulled the car and he started doing what he was doing," she narrated.
She revealed that she told a friend and a younger sibling about the rape, but was afraid to seek justice because Navarro threatened her.
"He threatened me. Takot ako, I was scared, I was young. He violated me. He threatened me. It was the most horrific moment of my life," she said.
She also described Navarro as a monster while he was raping her.
"I trusted him with his image na komedyante s'ya. It's so unfair kasi I feel safe. When he did that he just turned into this monster," she said, crying.
Despite all that, however, she said that she has continued to be friends and has been texting with Navarro because she was afraid.
"I stayed friends with him kasi takot ako," she said.
And she's doing this for justice and not to become popular.
"He violated me, it was a crime. He raped me. That is something that I wanna fight now. This is gonna be really, really tough, a bloody war. And I said let's do it, this is not about being famous. I'm seeking for justice.
