Chucky Comparison? Palace Official’s Shocking Remark on VP Sara Duterte Sparks Online Buzz
SARA DUTERTE – What started as a reaction to a Christmas message issue quickly turned controversial after a Palace official made a startling comparison that caught the attention of netizens.
Palace Press Officer and Presidential Communications Office (PCO) Undersecretary Atty. Claire Castro took a swipe at Vice President Sara Duterte, likening her to the character “Chucky” from the American horror film Child’s Play whenever she appears angry.
In a reaction video released on Castro’s YouTube channel on Friday, December 26, she shared her thoughts after watching Vice President Sara’s remarks regarding her decision not to send a Christmas message to President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. The Vice President made the statement during an ambush interview on Thursday, December 25, 2025.
“Bakit? Magbabago ba ‘yong ugali niya kung Christmas o hindi? Hindi naman magbabago. And in the same din, magbabago ba ‘yong ugali ko kung Christmas o hindi? So kung ayaw ko siyang batiin kahapon na hindi Christmas, ayaw ko siyang batiin ngayong Pasko,” VP Sara said during the interview.
While watching the clip, Castro remarked that the Vice President resembled someone familiar.
“Magme-message daw ba kay PBBM? O tingnan n’yo ‘yong mukha niya mga ka-Kler. Nadinig lang ang pangalang ‘PBBM,’ tingnan n’yo siya ulit mga ka-Kler, may kahawig ito, e,” Castro said.
She added, “May kahawig ‘pag ganiyan ang itsura. Tingnan natin.”
Continuing her commentary while searching for a photo, Castro further said, “Kapag galit na galit, e. Ayaw ko na sa inyong ipakita, pinakita ko na dati ito, e… Galit na galit kasi siya ‘pag nagme-melt down siya. Iba ang itsura niya.”
Castro then showed her viewers an image of the “Good Guy Doll” possessed by Chucky, claiming that it resembled Vice President Sara when she is angry, particularly when her eyebrows meet.
“Tingnan ninyo ‘yong itsura niya dito, parang ganito, e. Nagsasalubong ang kilay. Parang ganiyan. Parang ganiyan lang kapag galit,” she said.
Castro also contrasted this with her description of President Marcos’ demeanor, stressing that his calm nature remains unchanged regardless of the occasion. “Definitely, mahinahon ‘yon [PBBM]. Kahit hindi Pasko, mahinahon pa rin. Kahit hindi Pasko, hindi nagme-melt down. Kahit hindi Pasko at maraming bashers, hindi nagmumura, hindi nagbabanta ng buhay,” she said.
“Hindi talaga magbabago kasi ugali niya ‘yon,” Castro concluded.
As of this writing, Vice President Sara has yet to issue any statement regarding Castro’s remarks about her.
