“She said charot with the tone of just kidding,” a netizen commented with a laughing emoji.
“Pinaka-expensive charot I’ve ever heard,” another one joked.
“Makakarating na sa USA ang charot,” a TikTok user wrote.
In January, R’Bonney made history as the first Filipino-American to bag the highly coveted crown at the Miss Universe 2022 pageant. While she represented the USA, she expressed her pride for being a half-Filipina and thanked her Pinoy fans for their support after her win.
The Fil-Am beauty is currently in the Philippines with her Filipino father and an American mother. She arrived in the country on May 10 for the Miss Universe Philippines 2023 coronation night on Saturday, May 13, where she served as one of the judges. The next day, she was seen waving to her fans from her dad’s home in Malate, Manila.
