Actor and former "Hashtags" member Nikko Natividad has publicly addressed his involvement in a viral video scandal, expressing deep remorse for his actions. In a candid interview with talent manager Ogie Diaz released on Friday, March 6, 2026, Natividad broke down in tears and admitted that the private clip, which surfaced recently alongside alleged videos of other public figures, was the result of a "temptation" he succumbed to several years ago.
During the interview, Natividad refused to offer excuses for his behaviour, citing personal accountability as his primary focus. He clarified that the viral video was recorded around 2022 and that he had lived in fear of its eventual release.
“Sabi ko nga po, walang words na pwedeng magpabawas o mag-cover up ng nagawa ko... Lahat ng ginawa ko ay mali. Sa madaling salita, sabi ko sa wife ko, nademonyo ako. Natukso, bumigay ako,” Natividad admitted. (As I said, there are no words that can diminish or cover up what I did... Everything I did was wrong. In short, I told my wife, I was possessed by the devil. I was tempted, and I gave in.)
The actor revealed he had known for a long time that the private clip could go viral. He explained that he attempted to delay the fallout to protect his family life, despite knowing the truth would eventually surface.

"Sabi ko sa kanya, hiwalayan mo ‘ko, please. Magalit ka sa akin, please... Huwag kang bibigay kasi wala kang kasalanan. Inosente ka. Hindi ka huhusgahan ng tao," he said through tears. (I told her, leave me, please. Be angry at me, please... Don't give up because you did nothing wrong. You are innocent. People will not judge you.)
