Model and internet personality Jether Palomo won the Century Tuna Superbods 2024 after overcoming a series of fitness tests. His stint in this fitness pageant created a buzz during the question-and-answer portion in the finals night, when he asked award-winning actress Marian Rivera to translate the question for him.

Marian initially asked Jether, “Dumami ang followers mo sa social media nu’ng naging finalist ka. Papaano mo gagamitin ang opportunity na ito kahit tapos na ang competition na ito?”

Jether did not understand the question and asked the actress, “I’m sorry, can I take that in English, please?”

Marian paused and said, to the delight of the audience, “I will try my best. Listen very carefully, here’s my question: Your social media following grew when you became a finalist. How will you use this opportunity even after your Superbod journey?”

After that, Marian continued, “I think you understand that,” before laughing and holding out a peace sign.

Jether answered the question beautifully as he won the main award that night. Get to know more about him in this gallery.
