Baron Geisler enjoyed the impersonation of him on Drag Race Philippines
Film and television actor Baron Geisler had a good-natured response to a post on the social media site X (formerly Twitter) from a fan of the television show Drag Race Philippines.
Baron quoted the post of a fan who was curious if the impersonation performed by drag queen Khianna on last Wednesday's episode made him angry, saying that he “enjoyed the clips and comments” and that he was laughing.

Khianna was impersonating Baron Geisler as part of the Snatch Game, a popular segment of the drag competition show where contestants impersonate a celebrity and respond to humorous questions to make the show host and audience laugh. Khianna's performance was well-received although the challenge win would go to another contestant, Angel Galang.
When asked about the possibility of making an appearance on Drag Race Philippines, Baron teased that this time around he would be the one portraying Khianna.
Baliktad naman… I'll portray Khianna
