Winnie Cordero made a blooper when she mistakenly said Pooh as the name of the comedian who died instead of the late Chokoleit.
This happened in the March 11 episode of Umagang Kayganda. K Brosas appeared as a guest to pay tribute to Chokoleit who died on March 9, 2019.
Earlier during this segment, Winnie told viewers:
"Nakikiramay po ang Umagang Kayganda sa pagpanaw ng komedyanteng si Chokoleit. Bukod sa pagiging talented sa pagpapatawa, isa rin siyang mabuting kaibigan at kapamilya."
Winnie then introduced K Brosas as a close friend of Chokoleit.
Overcome with emotion, K could not speak as she tried to prevent her tears from flowing.
According to K, she and Chokoleit have known each other for more than two decades.
"Hindi pa kami artista, sabay kami nagsimula sa sing along 25 years ago. Batang-bata pa lang ako, 18, 19 [years old].
"Sobra akong tawang-tawa ako sa kanya. Buntis ako sa anak ko, biro niya, 'Huwag kang masyadong tumawa. Gusto mo maging ganito ang itsura ng anak mo?'
"Nag-rekindle nung nagkaroon kami ng show, si Pooh, si Chokoleit, Pokie [Pokwang], at ako. Dun lumalim ang pagkakaibigan namin.
"Ganun ka-deep ang friendship, hindi lang sa pagpapatawa."
K admitted that when she first visited the wake of Chokoleit, she initially could not accept his death.
"Nag-aantay ako ng joke. Joke lang! Tapos babangon siyang ganun. Tapos tawanan kami.
"Tapos sabi ni Vice [Ganda], paano kung biglang bumangon? Anong gagawin mo?"
To end the segment, Winnie asked K:
"Ano ang gusto mong sabihin? Naririnig ka ni Pooh ngayon."
K corrected her by saying, "Chokoleit."
Winnie exclaimed, "Sorry!"
K added, "Teka, Ate Winnie, buhay pa yung isa kong kaibigan. Huwag naman lahat sila.
"Pooh, pasensiya na."
Winnie laughed as she apologized, "sorry, Pooh."
K laughed as she Winnie said, "Parang comedy lang."
Finally, K gave her message for Chokoleit.
"Comedy bar...Chokie...gusto kong managinip. Huwag naman yung nakakatakot.
"Gustong-gusto kong makita kang muli kahit sa panaginip lang. Huwag lang horror."
