Former beauty queen Mary Jean “MJ” Lastimosa joined in riding the antics of her followers online who quipped that they found her taking home food from the recent Miss Universe pageant.
The meme was also posted on the Facebook page called Pageantry Fanatics on December 28.
The post showed a photo of Lastimosa that was juxtaposed with a photo of a woman wearing a similar outfit as her.
The woman on the left could be seen packing food items from an event.
“Spotted na humakot ng handa sa Miss Universe (laugh emoji),” the caption read.
One fan of Lastimosa shared this meme on Twitter and tagged her, saying: “Kita ko lang to idol…”
The tweet eventually reached the Miss Universe Philippines 2014 titleholder.
She quote-retweeted this and wrote: “Mga maritess remember dazurv mong magbalot nakakapagod din makipag-plastikan sa mga kumare mo.”

This interaction between Lastimosa and her fans started last Sunday, December 26.
Lastimosa reacted to a viral Facebook video of a woman acting strangely in a bathroom.
Facebook users supposed that the woman was her.
One Twitter user shared this video and tagged Lastimosa in a tweet and asked if the video was true.
Lastimosa immediately responded to this. She scolded the online user in jest.
“Mga bakla kayo ng taon andami ko kamag-anak nagtatanong bat daw may ganitong video eh di nga ako umiinom hahaha mga boset kayo (laughing emoji),” she said.
