SHOCKING COINCIDENCE? TVJ’s Exit Date Matches Pepsi Paloma’s Death Anniversary — Netizens Ask: Is It Just Chance or Something Deeper?

As the entertainment industry buzzes over the surprise resignation of Tito Sotto, Vic Sotto, and Joey de Leon from TAPE Inc., a chilling coincidence has caught the attention of eagle-eyed netizens.

Twitter user @mark_taimiklang ignited an online discussion after pointing out that TVJ’s official resignation was announced on May 31 — the exact same date that controversial actress Pepsi Paloma was found lifeless in 1985.

“Coincidence?” he simply asked, but the question triggered a wave of reactions across social media.

Many netizens joined the conversation, with some suggesting that the date may not be purely coincidental. Some even connected it to the haunting legacy of the Pepsi Paloma case, a decades-old controversy involving Vic, Joey, and the late comedian Richie D’Horsie.

It will be remembered that Pepsi once accused the trio of a traumatic incident in the 1980s, which later led to a controversial public apology. However, the case was never pursued in court, and Pepsi’s death was officially attributed to personal issues. Still, her story continues to stir emotions even decades later.

Fueling the mystery even further is the urban legend tied to the Eraserheads’ song “Spoliarium”, which many fans believe was a cryptic reference to Pepsi’s ordeal.

Tito Sotto, on the other hand, had previously dismissed the accusations as a publicity stunt meant to generate attention.

But now, with the sudden alignment of dates, netizens are once again asking: Is this just an eerie coincidence, or is there more to the story?

As the internet revives discussions about one of showbiz’s darkest chapters, one thing is clear — the name Pepsi Paloma continues to haunt the Philippine entertainment industry.
