NAGPALIWANAG SI Joey de Leon sa Nepal joke niya which earned for him the collective ire of people on social media.
“Naglalaro lang ako sa word. Ang naalala ko lang na sinabi ko, ‘yung tungkol sa Rest in Peace. ‘EveRest in Peace.’ Ano’ng masama roon? Wala namang masama, ‘Everest in Peace,’ ano’ng masama? Masama kung sinabi ko ‘Everest in freeze,’ ‘yun ang bad. Manigas,” esplika ni Joey sa presscon ng Tindahan ni Aling Puring Sari-Sari Store Convention, May 20 to 24, World Trade Center, Pasay City.
We don’t know kung aware si Joey na hindi nagswak ang kanyang explanation sa controversial tweet niya in which he said, “Sa mga nalibing sa Highest Point in the World dahil sa avalanche because of the earthquake in Nepal, May you EVEREST IN FREEZE!”
