Vice Ganda, Kim Chiu address fan reactions following acceptance speech mishap

Vice Ganda and Kim Chiu addressed the reactions of some fans after the former forgot to mention the latter during her acceptance speech at the FAMAS Broadcast Awards on Monday.

The comedienne, who went up the stage for the second time to receive her trophy for Best Entertainment Host, named her "It's Showtime" co-hosts one by one and shared her win with them.

However, she missed Kim in her message, which did not sit well with some of the actress' fans.

On Tuesday, Vice Ganda called out some fans on X for their "toxicity," "entitlement," and "ka-cheapan." She also tagged Kim in her posts.

Kim spoke up for her fans in a post, but she did not tag Vice Ganda.

"Ayaw ko na sanang palakihin ito. Pero bilang mga taga supporta hindi naman [siguro] ka-cheapan ang tawag duon. [Siguro] po marahil sa sobrang pagmamahal at suporta nila sa idolo nila ay protective sila. Initial reaction po [siguro] ito," the actress said.

"Hindi sa tinolerate ko sila pero sana hinayaan na natin ito. Kung wala ang mga taong sumusuporta at lubos na nagmamahal sa atin wala din tatangkilik sa lahat ng ginagawa natin," she added.

Meanwhile, Vice shared a message for her own fanbase, the Little Ponies.

"Sa aking mga Little Ponies hindi sapat at katanggap-tanggap na dahilan na mahal n'yo ko para maging masama kayo sa iba. Ipinagpapasalamat ko ang suporta n'yo but I will not enable your toxic behavior just because I seek [your] support," she said. "I love you my mature and thinking Little Ponies!"
