Kim Chiu, Vice Ganda, James Reid and other celebs’ epic fall on stage
1. Kim Chiu
Kim Chiu’s back at it again on her third ASAP fall! Kim has performed a lot of “buwis buhay” dance performances on ASAP and slayed them all. Despite her third fall on ASAP, Kim has undeniably managed to slay the performances with her high-performance level and a good sport.
Her first epic fall was her dance performance with Enchong Dee where Enchong suddenly went off balance as he was about to lift Kim. The second was her solo performance where a male G-Force dancer had a delay in supporting her after a lift stunt. Now, her third epic fall was a fiberglass dance with Yassi Pressman.
The unfavorable event happened during the transition of positions where Yassi is going in front of the fiberglass and Kim at the back. Kim is supposed to lie on top and Yassi under the fiberglass as G-Force dancers hold the fiberglass on the side to create the slow flipping effect. But during the transition, the fiberglass loses balance causing Kim to her third fall on ASAP stage. Nevertheless, she never fails to awe the audience for going on with her performances like nothing happened. Watch a video captured on-screen by a user on Twitter here.
