Leni Robredo was caught in the act, but people are loving her more for it.

Like she’s always done ever since she was elected in 2013, Camarines Sur Rep. Leni Robredo skipped the glitz and the glamour of the SONA red carpet, taking the backdoor entrance to the Plenary Hall.

Alas, she was caught on cam doing so. She playfully posted the photo on her Facebook page, which of course, went viral. “Gotcha!! Was caught on cam on my way to the backdoor entrance of the Plenary Hall to escape the red carpet. 3rd year in a row I did this. First time to be caught,” she wrote in the caption.

At this day and age where everybody wants their 15 seconds of fame, it’s so refreshing to see someone shunning it altogether.

Of course, it boomeranged on her face. Now, Robredo is even more famous for shunning fame. Her photo has been shared 974 times since she posted it on Facebook on July 27.
