In the glitzy realm of Philippine showbiz, sparks are flying as controversial showbiz gossip artist Cristy Fermin takes center stage in a verbal exchange with the ever-outrageous Vice Ganda.
The drama unfolded on the set of “It’s Showtime,” leaving social media abuzz with the latest showdown.
Fermin, known for her unfiltered commentary, found herself in the hot seat after allegedly being targeted by Vice Ganda during a recent episode.
In response, Fermin stated, “Hindi naman kami ipinanganak kahapon para hindi namin maturol na ako talaga ang pinatatamaan ni Vice Ganda. Ang hindi lang maganda puro patagilid ang kaniyang bira,” amplifying the tension in the ongoing feud.
The showbiz columnist defended her position, asserting, “Kung ‘yon ay pagsisinungaling bakit kinatigan ang aking pagsisinungaling ng MTRCB at pinatawan kayo ng 12 araw na suspensyon?”
She questioned the credibility of Vice Ganda’s response to the issues surrounding him and partner Ion Perez, which led to a 12-day suspension of the noontime show.
In a direct jab at Vice Ganda, Fermin stated, “Ang hirap kasi sa’yo, Vice, mula nang ikaw ay nakatikim ng popularidad, inangkin mo na ang mundo na ikaw na ang gitna, ikaw ang araw at umiikot lang ang lahat ng tao sa show business na parang mga planeta sa iyo. Dapat mong malaman na planeta ka lang din na tulad namin. Hindi ikaw ang araw.”
Fermin didn’t stop there, even questioning Vice Ganda’s gender identity, saying, “Vice Ganda, hindi ka tunay na babae. Lalaki ka. Lalaki ka Vice Ganda. Nagpapanggap ka lang na babae.”
This verbal spat ignited after Vice Ganda’s on-air remark directed at a contestant named “Cristy” during the “Me Choose, Me Choose” segment of “It’s Showtime.”
Inquiring about her activities, Vice Ganda quipped, “Anong pinagkakaabalahan mo, Cristy, bukod sa paggawa ng mga kasinungalingan?”
Netizens were quick to react, with many pointing out that the contestant named “Cristy” was not the showbiz columnist.
Social media echoed with comments, such as “Gurang na marites,” “True wala ng ginawa c Cristy kundi mag news ng Nega kay Vice,” and “Atake ng pa simple.”
