Wrong Kylie: American Actress Kylie Brakeman Got a DM Asking Her About Aljur Abrenica’s Statement
Oct 23, 2021 • Kyzia Maramara
Kylie Padilla and Aljur Abrenica’s domestic controversy has got the entire country in a chokehold. It seems like every day we get an update that makes everyone scroll a little longer on their timelines in disbelief. And it’s not just this ex-couple that’s involved in the issue. It has somehow reached an international level, thanks to Pinoys who love playing pranks.
Pinoys play a joke on Kylie Brakeman

You know how Filipinos get when a scandal breaks. In the name of legendary Pinoy humor, they attempt to lighten the tension by looping other people who have no idea what the heck is happening. It happened with James Deakin when Nadine Lustre and James Reid broke up and now it got international. American actress-writer Kylie Brakeman took to Twitter to share a screenshot of someone messaging her with Aljur’s quote and asking her if it’s true. Filipinos know the Kylie in question is obviously Aljur’s estranged wife, but the American actress didn’t know that.
Part of a national prank

But lucky for us Pinoys, Brakeman knows how to take a joke. She quickly accepted the fact that she was “pranked” by the Republic of the Philippines overnight. Naturally, the post blew up (as anything remotely connected to Pinoys do). As of writing, it now has 46K likes and almost 8K retweets.
Pinoys are apologetic over it
I am a Filipino too, but please do not apologize for me and the entire population without proper consultation. Wag niyo po pangunahan mga desisyon namin sa buhay.🥺

Now that our trolling tendencies as a people are out in the open, other Pinoys start apologizing to Brakeman and explaining the situation. But it’s all cool. If anything it shows the whole world that we can literally make light of anything thrown at us.
no haha, it’s kind of a filipino meme where u ask people who has the same name and act as if they’re the ones involved.

This Kylie sides with Kylie
Okay I think I stand with my girl Kylie Padilla on this one

And what do you know, Brakeman actually made a stand. She took the time to read about the controversy after she was pulled into it. The result? She sides with her namesake.
What’s the update on the situation?
What’s going on anyway? Robin Padilla announced Kylie and Aljur’s split earlier this year and insinuated it was caused by a third party. The public’s hate was directed at Aljur who, a few months later, was found courting actress AJ Raval. In a bid to set the record straight, Aljur released an emotional open letter for Kylie to “tell [the public] who cheated first” so everyone will cool it with the hate. Sadly, this move turned on him when Kylie indirectly rebutted through songs and vague quotes on Instagram story.
AJ Raval gets involved

21-year-old sexy actress AJ Raval revealed earlier that yes, Aljur is courting her but no, she isn’t the one responsible for the couple’s falling out. Instead of staying silent about the issue, AJ boldly defended herself. She even shared Aljur’s “Breaking Silence” post which drew her the ire of netizens. Shortly after, she deleted the post and all her Instagram photos and declared she will be taking a social media detox for a year.
