My Bebe Love supporters claim “ticket swapping.” Instead of the title of Vic Sotto, Ai-Ai delas Alas, and AlDub movie, Beauty and the Bestie was printed on the movie tickets.

Umalma ang ilang manonood dahil sa umano'y “ticket swapping” na naganap sa ilang SM Cinemas sa pagbubukas ng 2015 Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF) ngayong araw, December 25.

Sa Twitter, ilang tagasuporta ng MMFF entry na My Bebe Love ang nagsasabing mali ang naka-print sa kanilang ticket.

Sa halip na ang titulo ng pelikula nina Vic Sotto, Ai-Ai delas Alas, Alden Richards, at Maine Mendoza ang naka-print sa ticket, ang pelikulang Beauty and the Bestie ang nakalagay.

Ang Beauty and the Bestie ay pelikulang pinagbibidahan nina Vice Ganda at Coco Martin, kasama sina James Reid at Nadine Lustre.

#AlDubNation please be aware! Initially thought it was just a random mistake when we saw similar posts earlier but apparently it's not! We don't want to think bad of other people but it seems the ticket sales are bring rigged in favor of someone else's film! @direkjoey @octoartsfilms @mybebelove_official @eatbulaga1979 @direkmike @angpoetnyo @allan_klownz @richard_p_faulkerson @rmcfaulkerson @leysam17 @nelsoncanlas @aubreycarampel @gmanetwork @gmanews Hope you can help do something about this to help the stars of #MyBebeLove also @msaiaidelasalas @mainedcm @aldenrichards02.
