Pauleen Luna Reportedly Broke Down in Tears on the Witness Stand, According to Cristy Fermin
PAULEEN LUNA – Host Pauleen Luna reportedly broke down in tears while testifying on the witness stand during the ongoing legal battle between her husband, Vic Sotto, and director Darryl Yap.
Prominent showbiz commentator Cristy Fermin recently revealed details about the ongoing legal dispute between comedian Vic Sotto and director Darryl Yap. On her program Showbiz Now Na, Fermin shared insider information regarding the high-profile case, which has sparked significant public interest.
According to Fermin, Pauleen Luna, the wife of Vic Sotto, was reportedly overcome with emotion and broke down in tears while testifying on the witness stand. Although specific details about her testimony remain undisclosed, the emotional moment has added another layer of intrigue to the already controversial case.
The legal conflict stems from a teaser for Yap’s film TROPP, which allegedly alludes to sensitive matters involving the late actress Pepsi Paloma. The teaser has been criticized for its perceived ties to Paloma’s tragic story, which remains a sensitive topic in the Philippine entertainment industry. Vic Sotto, who was indirectly associated with the events surrounding Paloma’s life, has taken legal action against Yap.
Despite the court hearing between the two parties, limited information has been made public about the proceedings. Fermin noted that while the case continues to unfold, the emotional testimony of Pauleen Luna has become a focal point of discussion.

The controversial case has reignited conversations about ethical storytelling in Philippine cinema, with many questioning the boundaries between creative expression and responsible filmmaking. It also highlights the enduring sensitivity surrounding Pepsi Paloma’s legacy and the need to handle such topics with care and respect.
As the case progresses, the public eagerly awaits further developments, including the possibility of more details surfacing about the testimonies and the court’s final decision.
