Kapamilya actor Nikko Natividad made a rare move after commenting on the issue of It’s Showtime.
In a Facebook post, Nikko sympathized with Axel Cruz, the It’s Showtime segment, EXpecially For You contestant who went viral on social media after being called out by Vice Ganda live on national television due to his gestures towards his ex-girlfriend, Christine.
“Naawa lang ako sa lalaki na may nagawang mali pero hindi niya talaga intensyon. At syempre dun sa babae,” said Nikko. “Sobra lang kasi napahiya ‘yung lalaki na sasabihan pa na tatadyakan at pwede kasuhan,”
He also added that he had experienced the same thing.
“ALAM KO KASI PAKIRAMDAM NG PINAPAHIYA SA TV AT NAPOPOWERTRIP BASE SA EXPERIENCE KO,” he stated.
Nikko also made another post to express support for Axel and Christine.
“Lalagyan lang nya ng charot sa dulo lulusot na yan,” he stated.
As of writing, Nikko already deleted the said posts.
Meanwhile, netizens were waiting for Vice to respond to Nikko.
It can be recalled that Vice withdrew his plans to apologize to Axel and even criticized his actions again on national television.
“Binabawi ko yung twineet ko na I will say an apology because I do not need to apologize for what I did. Ito ang aking paniniwala, at paniniwala din namin na hindi kinakailangang mag-apologize because what we did was right,” he stated.
“Nirerespeto namin ang dahilan ni Christine kung bakit sinabi niya yon, na hindi siya na-off when, in reality, na-off talaga siya. At since na-off si Christine, naniniwala ako na hindi mali na kinolout namin si Axel dahil karapatan ng isang babae na tumanggi o umalma kung para sa kanya, sa pakiwari niya ay hindi siya kumportable sa ikikilos ng sinuman sa harapan niya,” he added.
