Paul Salas reacts over viral video of performance in Palawan
Paul Salas has addressed the viral video showing a fan falling on the floor during his performance in Palawan. On Facebook, Kapuso actor shared a fan-taken video showing him warmly engaging with the audience during a performance. In the clip, a female fan approached him for a photo, and after their sweet interaction, Paul unknowingly took her chair, thinking it was empty. Moments later, the fan attempted to sit back down—only to fall when the chair was no longer there. The video, which was uploaded by Shamel Ledesma Aguirre on Facebook, has now gone viral with 13 million views and over 200,000 reactions as of writing. Reacting to the viral video, Paul humorously acknowledged the chair mishap, saying "Hindi naman kasi sa akin ang upuan kuha ako ng kuha." He later apologized to the fan, expressed relief that she was OK, and said that he would make it up to her. "Pasensya minamahal kong binibini at hindi ko napansin eh upuan mo pala 'yun. Bawi ako sa 'yo. I love you! Mabuti at okay ka. Sana nag-enjoy ang lahat ng taga Brookes Point Palawan love you guys," Paul added. Paul previously starred in the Philippine adaptation of hit Korean drama "Shining Inheritance" and the second season of "Lolong." —MGP, GMA Integrated News
