MANILA, Philippines – Admitting she had “one too many drinks,” actress Anne Curtis has come clean and apologized for her rowdy behavior last November 23 at an upscale club in Taguig City.
Curtis took to Twitter to air her apology after a local entertainment website released an exclusive story on the incident, which detailed how the actress made a scene by shouting at and slapping a couple of people including John Lloyd Cruz.
“For those who have read about the issue, yes, most of it is true,” Curtis posted online.
“I admit to that and I have apologized to all parties included immediately,” she added.
Curtis said she had been on a diet and had a lot of drinks.
“Now…I had been on the super popular juice cleanse for 3 days & attended my best friend’s bachelorette that night, had one too many drinks…which led to some of these unfortunate events. That’s why they say ‘Drink in moderation’. I will charge it to experience & a lesson learned.”
The actress also addressed her fans, “I’m sorry if I let any of my fans down…. As you all see, I’m just like any other person that makes mistakes in life.”
The Philippine Entertainment Portal (PEP) on Sunday narrated the incident based on an interview with JR Isaac, editor and publisher of Circuit Magazine.
Isaac said he was with a group of friends, including Cruz, at the VIP section of the Prive Luxury Club last November 23 at around 1 a.m. or 2 a.m. when Curtis came out of the restroom, shouting.
He said Curtis, who was hosting a bachelorette party for a friend, walked towards them and slapped him, a female friend and Cruz.
She allegedly called Cruz “an addict” and told model-host Phoemela Barranda, “I can buy you, your friends, and this club.”
Isaac said a commotion ensued and bouncers had to step in. He said they were shocked. Later in the afternoon, however, he received a text message from Curtis saying, “Just want to apologize for my behavior! I’m so so so sorry. I’m so ashamed would never act like that in the right state of mind! I’m so sorry. Please forgive me!”
Curtis on Twitter mentioned a “person who started all of this” who apologized to her as well. However, she said, “I choose not to go into detail because I’m not the type to ruin someone else’s name.”
Isaac said in the PEP article that he was in good terms with Curtis and did not know why the actress was mad at them that night.
