The actress-host was introducing special guests Jezza Quiogue and Nowi Alpuerto from "Tawag ng Tanghalan All-Star Grand Resbak" when she jokingly highlighted her effort to say their names properly.

"Ayan, ha, tama 'yung pagkakabigkas ko ng pangalan," Kim quipped, before adding, "Baka magkamali nanaman. May mga perfect talaga mga tao diyan."
She then followed up with a lighthearted remark: "Yes! Let’s just be happy! Easy lang, easy lang. Ang alam ko si God lang ang perfect, e. Alam mo 'yun? No one's perfect."

Ironically, laughter soon filled the studio when Kim still slipped in pronouncing one of the names.

Jhong Hilario teased her, saying, "Mali na naman sinabi mo. Sabi mo, 'Knowi'."
Jugs Jugueta chimed in, "Okay lang 'yun kasi nobody's perfect, di ba?" while Teddy Corpuz joked, "Tandaan mo lang, Kimmy, Know-body's perfect."

Her jokes came after she previously mispronounced the name of OPM band IV of Spades, calling them “I-V of Spades” instead of “Four of Spades.” The slip drew reactions online, prompting Kim to issue a statement on X.

"Let me just clear this out… Honest mistake, diko talaga sila kilala. Kung naitama ko yung pangalan nila. May magbabago ba? Mababalik ba satin yung ninakaw na TAX natin?" she wrote.
Kim further stressed, “This will be the last time I answer this… Ang hirap sa iba, instead of lifting each other up, we pull one another down. Crab mentality.”
