MMDA to Investigate Allegations Kim Chiu Danced along EDSA, Actress Cries 'Fake News!'

The Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) earlier said they were investigating an alleged video showing Kim dancing in the middle of EDSA. The video was taken by actress Angelica Panganiban, which was shared on her Instagram stories on Monday, June 1.

In an Instagram post-Wednesday, June 3, the actress called the report "fake news."

"Sa nagpapakalat ng fake news na sa EDSA ako sumayaw, hello?!!! Okay ka lang? Bakit ako sasayaw sa gitna ng edsa. Takot ko lang. DYOS KO. Please stop spreading FAKE NEWS."

According to Kim, the photo was taken at the parking lot of Tipsy Pig restaurant in Quezon City

"Moms @iamangelicap sa EDSA daw yung PARKING LOT ng Tipsy Pig? Kaya pa ba? Ikaw na nag-deliver ng merchandise, ikaw pa pagbibintangan ng fake news. Hay.... life...... hindi po biro magbenta ng merch, first time kong ginawa to pero okay lang I know this is for a good cause. Let’s spread love not hate. COVID-19 ANG KALABAN NATIN, HINDI ANG KAPWA TAO. Please lang, stop spreading #fakenews," Kim said.

According to a Daily Tribune report, Metropolitan Manila Development Authority Assistant Secretary Celine Pialago said they received a screenshot of the viral video showing the actress in workout clothes while dancing outside her car.

“We have so many problems that should be addressed and for the meantime, this is our reaction to the issue concerning actress Miss Kim Chiu,” Pialago said.“We will verify the truth about the report. We will check if this video of Miss Kim Chiu really happened on EDSA. We will invite her to explain her side then we will act accordingly,” she added.
