A video of “EXpecially For You” searcher Christine went viral, showing her crying as she talked to someone over the phone.
In a post shared by TikTok user Jhelo Bernabe, Christine seemed to be talking with a staff member from “It’s Showtime.”
The user claimed that he was the brother of Christine’s ex-boyfriend and that the searcher’s sibling sent the video to his brother. Jhelo disclosed in his video that his brother was comforting Christine as she was “hysterical” and said, “Mas lalo lang silang binigyan ng dahilan na i-bash ako. Ginagawa niyo akong sinungaling. Paano naman po ako?”
The video was taken after “It’s Showtime” host Vice Ganda retracted his apology to searchee Axel, whom he called out for allegedly trying to kiss Christine on the cheek without asking for her consent during the May 31 episode of the noontime show.
Later on, Vice Ganda took to his X account to apologize to Axel for his actions. Christine clarified on her TikTok that Axel was not going to kiss her but instead got close to her to share a hug.
However, the comedian took back his apology on Tuesday, June 4, to address the issue, revealing that they had already talked to Axel and Christine. He also said that Christine mentioned during their conversation that she felt “off” about Axel’s action, contrary to what she posted on her TikTok.
The host added that it is every woman’s right to refuse or say no whenever she feels violated.
