The incident happened on October 28 during filming for Es Show. Chavana was hosting a segment when a production drone appeared. He decided to kick the drone while it was nearby. However, things quickly took an unexpected turn.
The drone flew directly into model Isabella La Colombiana Rojas’ face, and the impact left Rojas with a bloodied mouth. She was briefly taken away from the camera by the crew. She later returned and showed her injury.
Meanwhile, Chavana initially blamed his production staff. He also pointed to the new shoes he was wearing, saying, “See what you have done.” The host eventually accepted responsibility and apologized. “I am very sorry. I am responsible for what just happened,” Chavana said.
He also admitted feeling ashamed and embarrassed while also making another reference to his new shoes. “I am responsible for what just happened. I feel very ashamed and embarrassed for what I have just done. I kicked this thing they put in front of me… I don’t know, maybe it was my new shoes.”
The incident sparked several reactions from viewers online. Some questioned how the stunt was allowed, and some also noted the situation could’ve been worse. However, he also addressed the incident online.
This time, he did not blame his footwear. He said, “I am not hiding. I am aware of the mistake I made yesterday by kicking a drone during a situation that came up on the program.” Reports later revealed that he would pay for the model’s medical treatment and cover the damage costs.
Meanwhile, footage of the incident spread quickly online. The clips have reportedly attracted millions of views.
