Kapamilya young star Anji Salvacion recently made a buzz on social media following her failed hair-flip moment at the Kapamilya Christmas Special.
While singing with other Kapamilya young stars and Concert King Martin Nievera during the ABS-CBN Christmas Special 2022 aired over the weekend, Salvacion flipped her hair and accidentally hit Nievera’s face.
The video clip of the incident quickly went viral on social media, with netizens sharing their mixed reactions.
@comewhat_may shared his shock and tweeted, “OMG hahaha bakit hinampasan ng buhok ang concert king???”

@jaecorde, meanwhile, said that even though it may not be a big deal to the Concert King, her action was still disrespectful. The netizen also called out ASAP’s production for putting “starlets” alongside icons in one production number.
“Unless gag sketch sya, even if it’s scripted, even if wala lang yun kay Martin at game sya sa ganyang antics…. it still feels off. The disrespect. Yan ang napapala pag masyadong inihahalo ang mga starlets sa legends and icons tuwing ASAP. Feeling nila magkaka level cla.”

Same with @smgaaaaab who tweeted, “Ginawa yan ng starlet kay Concert King??? Bakit ba kasi binibigyan ng spotlight at airtime yan eh di naman magaling. Eto kasing si Darla, hindi na lang magfocus sa mga totoong may talent eh.”

@KNstann and @trotNes, on the other hand, advised Salvacion to be mindful of her actions on stage.
“Hahahahahaha yung reaction ni Sir Martin Kaloka ka Anji. Ayusin mo yang actions mo.”

“Loisa stan ako at the same time like ko rin si Anji as solo.Yes obviously di nya sinadyan pero even sa mga asap prod nya yung galaw nya is too much. Na minsan hndi na akma sa ginagawa nyang prod.Instead of tolerating sa mga kilos nya,siguro mas mabuting iadvice sya sa action nya.”

“Ewan ko talaga kung di sinasadya. Nakatingin kasi sya kay Sir Martin before sya maghair-flip. knowing how long her hair is and how close sir Martin was, Idk why she decided to do that. Wala din naman sa lyrics ang magtaray-taray eme. Sweet yung message ng song e.”

@anjbrent143 and @KaceGiv shared the same sentiments, asking netizens not to quickly judge Salvacion because it was clearly unintentional.
“Oa naman ng iba dito halata naman na hindi sinasadya kala siguro ni anji malayo si sir martin.”
