Kim Chiu denies receiving VIP treatment in viral Voters Registration Video

A viral video featured Kim Chiu who allegedly received VIP treatment during the COMELEC biometrics registration in SM Marikina while senior citizens lined up for hours.


The video, which now have 1.3 million views and counting, is entitled 'Galawang Artista, Galawang VIP." The video is accompanied by a narration of what allegedly happened:


GALING SA INBOX: KAPAG ARTISTA, PWEDE NA LAHAT! Nangyari ang insidenteng ito noong oktubre 27, 2015. Matagal naghintay ang mga tao sa isang lugar sa Marikina para makapag parehistro sa darating na botohan.

Noong nag sisimula na ang processing, may biglaang dumating na artista itago na lang natin sa pangalang "Kim Chiu" (hahaha).

So ayun dahil artista nga hindi nya na kailangan pumila. Nakakaawa yung mga taong naghintay makapag parehistro ng maaga lalong lalo na yung mga matatanda parang tinaboy lang para paunahin si Tsinita Princess.

 Kim Chiu categorically denied that she received VIP treatment. She said an assistant queued up for her while she was waiting inside her car:

A fan asked her on IG: @adel_delica: "Ateng @prinsesachinita, Anong say mo doon sa kumakalat na video tungkol sayo na hindi ka pumila nung nagparegister ka?"

Kim Chiu: "@adel_delica i was there 7:30am po kasi i had a flight after, my RM lined up for me po,close pa mall. nung turn ko na po tsaka ako bumaba.."

In her Twitter account, she said: "dont judge if you dont know the real story.. dont base sa kung anong nakikita ng mata.. know everything first, bago mag kwento.."
