MANILA – Ethel Gabison, more popularly known by her showbiz comedienne name, Ethel Booba, admitted during a guest appearance on “Gandang Gabi Vice” on Sunday that her controversial sex video was “the worst” and “craziest” she has done for love.
On the show, Booba openly talked about the scandalous video, allegedly recorded by ex-lover Alex Crisano. She joked that she is disappointed over the reproduction quality of the pirated copies of the video – which shows the sexy funny woman in bed – currently in circulation, as she is no longer recognizable, due to the poor image quality.
“Actually yung pirated niyan dati, malinaw pa…tapos kinopy ng kinopy, ang labo na…lumabo. Bad trip ako, hindi ako masyadong namumukhaan, eh!” she said, sarcastically.
During the interview, when asked about the craziest thing she has done for love, Booba recounted the incident with Crisano.
She said that was in the habit of taking video recordings of her activities. “Ako ‘yung mahilig mag-video-video, tapos hanggang one time, pag gising, nagga-gano’n siya (Crisano),” she said, referring to her then boyfriend’s recording of her in bed.
“Pero, ano, wala na ‘yun… Iyon ang pinaka-worst,” she added.
The video initially caused a stir online when it leaked in 2005. According to Crisano the video surfaced on the internet shortly after he took his cellphone in to be repaired at a mall shop.
