LOL: Lourd de Veyra Dragged Into SexBomb Izzy Trazona Drama, Tells Trolls 'Hindi Ako 'Yon, Mga Hayup Kayo!'
Of all the people who could get tangled up in the SexBomb Izzy Trazona resignation controversy, nobody expected it would be News5 anchor and writer Lourd de Veyra. But here we are. A photo of Lourd has been circulating online with the text 'Mag-resign ka sa SexBomb' — and it went viral enough that the man himself had to go on national television to clear his name.
The mix-up is actually hilarious when you understand the context. Former actor Alvin Aragon, husband of Izzy Trazona, previously explained that his wife resigned from the SexBomb Girls because of her Christian faith. 'Sino ang nagpa-resign kay Izzy sa SexBomb? Ang Panginoon noong naging Christian si Izzy. Pinag-resign ng Lord,' Aragon said. Lord — as in the Almighty. Not Lourd — as in the TV host.
But Filipino netizens, being the creative chaos agents they are, ran with the 'Lord/Lourd' wordplay and created the meme that dragged de Veyra into the mess. The image spread like wildfire, and suddenly people were tagging the News5 anchor asking if he really told Izzy to quit SexBomb. Ang gulo, 'di ba?
Unable to stay silent any longer, Lourd addressed the issue on his program Afternoon Delight: 'Pakiusap lang sa mga loko-loko, hindi ako 'yong nagpa-resign do'n sa SexBomb na miyembro. Kaya tigilan n'yo na ako, mga hayup kayo! Host po ako.' He then added a joke that had everyone laughing: 'Okay na kayong pag-resign-in ni Lord, 'wag lang kayong kunin ni Lord.'
Only in Philippine showbiz can a religious testimony about faith turn into a meme war involving a completely unrelated news anchor. The internet remains undefeated, and Lourd de Veyra just became the most accidental trending topic of the week. 😂
