So, there’s this TikTok video making the rounds, a remake of that iconic Coca-Cola commercial in the Philippines from the early 2000s. Filipinos know which one, the sunny vibes, the soft-drink glow, and of course, Nikki Gil, who at the time was one of the most recognizable faces on TV. (She’s still famous, just not as active in the limelight.) Anyway, this remake wasn’t done by a celebrity, but by a regular creator with a solid following and, honestly, some real talent. She shared that she’d wanted to recreate that ad for some time, and now that she finally had the chance, she was understandably excited.
Apart from the awesomeness of the video itself, a small exchange at the comment section also caught my attention.
One commenter left this gem:
Commenter: This video was reposted by Nikki!
Creator: Really? I don’t believe it! For real, she reposted?
Commenter: *reported
Brutal. Efficient. And somehow… hilarious.
It’s the kind of humor that makes you laugh and wince at the same time. Classic internet energy, walking that fine line between witty and mean-spirited.
Here’s hoping the comments don’t escalate into something uglier though.
