Kapamilya stars Anne Curtis-Smith and Vice Ganda address controversy in joint statement
Kapamilya star Anne Curtis-Smith and fellow Kapamilya Vice Ganda have issued a joint statement, assuring fans that they are okay following a controversy surrounding a food chain endorsement. Anne took to social media to address the issue, urging fans to remain calm and expressing regret for the “lapse of judgment” on both their parts. The controversy stemmed from an incident on the noontime program “It’s Showtime,” where Anne inadvertently uttered the tagline for Vice’s rival food chain endorsement. Both Anne and Vice have lucrative endorsement deals with competing fast-food chains, with Anne representing Jollibee and Vice promoting McDonald’s Philippines. During the segment in question, Vice asked Anne to say “nice,” and then “ganda,” which she complied with before realizing her error and apologizing on air. The incident has sparked conversation on social media, with fans expressing support for both stars. The two have since assured the public that they are moving forward from the incident.
