In a recent Instagram post, TV5’s first fully tattooed sports anchor and former basketball player Mikee Reyes proudly showed off his Monday look, complete with his full sleeve tattoos.
In his post, he wrote, “Wondering how Friday is far from Monday, while Monday is so close to Friday.”
Also known as Tito Mikee online, the sports anchor made headlines after proudly displaying his tattooed arms while reporting on the television newscast Frontline Pilipinas on Wednesday, June 14.
“I didn’t even know it was that big a deal. 😅 You’d be surprised what you can do when you just be yourself. 🙏🏽 Keep going, people! Kita kita sa taas,” Mikee wrote in his shared post from Philippine Star.
“📈 PS. Di ko sinasabing magpa-tattoo kayo! Para lang klaro, wala ako diyan! 😂😂😂,” he added.
