Kelvin Miranda issued an apology on his Instagram Stories earlier this week following his guest appearance on noontime variety show It’s Showtime. The actor was criticized by some netizens after they noticed that he was chewing gum all throughout his segment, viewing it as disrespectful.

Kelvin was on It’s Showtime to promote his latest film, After All, alongside his co-star Beauty Gonzalez.

In his Instagram Stories, the Kapuso actor explained why he had to chew gum on live television. He claimed that it was his “coping mechanism” as he was nervous being on stage.

“Pag nguya ng gum sa premier at tv. Opo, ako nga po ito. Kalma lang po kayo, wala naman akong gustong bastusin or tapakan na na moral dito. Sa'kin lang ay bago po po sa'kin ang pakiramdam ng lahat,” he wrote.

Netizens called him out on social media as they found his antics a bit too much for the noontime variety show. He acknowledged what his critics were saying but defended himself in his apology statement.

“Di ko alam paano ihandle ang emosyon at lahat ng pangayayare. IIdinaan ko nalang sa pagche-chewing gum. Pero wag kayo mag aalala humihingi ako ng pasensya sa lahat at hindi na mauulit. Naging coping mechanism ko siya which is not good,” he shared.

Despite being compared to other artists, Kelvin assured people that chewing gum wasn’t his way of copying anybody. He maintained that it was truly just a way for him to cope with the emotions he felt while he was promoting on It’s Showtime.

“Hindi ko siya ginagawa para mag mukhang gwapo or pagpapagwapo sadyang duon ko binubuhos ang pangingig ng katawan ko dahil sa dala ng nerviyos. Hirap ako i-manage ang nararamdaman ko nung mga oras na yun,” he said.

“Again, pasensya na sa lahat ng nakapuna. Salamat sa pag ppuna niyo gawin kong aral at hindi na masundan pa ng ibang pagkakataon,” he ended.

Meanwhile, his film with Beauty is now out in several cinemas nationwide.
