On April 7, netizens noticed that the Filipino pop and R&B band South Border had seemingly jumped from performing at Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr.-Sara Duterte-Carpio’s UniTeam rally to Isko Moreno’s rally.
On twitter, netizens pointed out that South Border joined presidential aspirant Isko Moreno’s political rally after performing at the UniTeam rally while comparing them to sexy star and comedian Rufa Mae Quinto.
Wait nandito rin ang South Border. May Presidential rally tour din tulad ni Rufa Mae 😂 https://t.co/N5Rv9CdMZU

Earlier, Quinto shocked netizens after joining Pacquiao’s rally in Dumaguete City on April 2 after performing at UniTeam’s rally in Zamboanga City, which resulted in netizens quipping Quinto’s “presidential rally tour.”
Other netizens also noted that they are only doing their jobs as performers.

One netizen speculated that these artists working on different political rallies prove that the Marcos camp pays for their performers.

Earlier, True Faith refuted Eric Nicolas’s claim that he hasn’t received payment for his appearance at the UniTeam camp rally while revealing that Marcos pays its artists to perform during the political rallies.
