On May 28, returning It’s Showtime host Anne Curtis-Smith was caught rolling her eyes at a Showtime Sexy Babe Weekly Finals contestant.
In a ‘blink-and-you’ll-miss-it’ moment, Curtis was seemingly eyeing the contestant named Christine Rudolph when Vice Ganda was asking the Showtime Sexy Babe weekly finalist a question.
Netizens captured the moment for all posterity and uploaded it on twitter.

One netizen explained that Anne was trying to keep herself awake while hosting, given that she’s a new mom.
Being a mum, I feel like Anne’s trying keep herself awake kaya ganyan itsura. Yung napipikit na mata nya pero pilit nya dinidilat.
