Manila, Philippines – The Philippine entertainment industry is once again plunged into heartbreak and disbelief as news broke of the sudden death of comedian and online sensation Chad Kinis, who reportedly passed away without warning. The tragic announcement sent shockwaves throughout the country, leaving fans, fellow celebrities, and friends mourning the unexpected loss of one of the most vibrant and lovable figures in local showbiz.
A LIFE THAT SPARKLED — AND ENDED TOO SOON
Chad Kinis, whose real name was Richardson de la Cruz, rose to fame through his work as a comedian, vlogger, and member of the viral comedy group “Beks Battalion.” Known for his loud laughter, witty comebacks, and unfiltered humor, Chad carved a name for himself not only on television and online platforms, but also in the hearts of millions of Filipinos who looked to him for joy in difficult times.
The news of his sudden death was first confirmed by close friends and fellow comedians through emotional Instagram and Facebook posts. As of this writing, no official cause of death has been publicly confirmed, though some reports suggest that he may have suffered a cardiac-related episode late last night.
“We were just laughing together yesterday,” one close friend wrote in a viral post.
“How could he be gone so fast? This doesn’t feel real.”
FANS AND CELEBRITIES DEVASTATED
As the news quickly spread, #RIPChadKinis and #JusticeForChad began trending across social media platforms, with thousands expressing disbelief, heartbreak, and tributes to the late comedian’s legacy.
“He didn’t just make us laugh. He made us feel loved, seen, and accepted,” said one fan.
“Chad was sunshine in human form. What a painful loss for all of us.”
Numerous celebrities from both comedy and drama industries expressed their shock. Vice Ganda, one of Chad’s biggest inspirations, wrote a heartfelt message:
“You made people laugh when they felt like crying. You gave light when others lived in darkness. Fly high, Chad. You will never be forgotten.”

A LEGACY OF LAUGHTER AND LOVE
Chad Kinis was more than a comedian — he was a symbol of resilience and authenticity. As an openly gay performer, he used humor not just to entertain, but to challenge norms, spark conversations, and build safe spaces for others in the LGBTQ+ community.
He often spoke about his humble beginnings, his struggles with acceptance, and how he never imagined his jokes could touch so many lives.
“I used to perform in small comedy bars with barely 10 people watching. Now millions laugh with me online,” he once said during an interview.
“My only dream was to make people happy. That’s enough for me.”
THE LAST MOMENTS — WHAT HAPPENED?
While the full details remain unconfirmed, sources close to Chad revealed that he had been feeling unwell in the days leading up to his death. However, he continued to perform, vlog, and engage with fans, never showing signs of anything serious.
One of his last public appearances was in a live Facebook stream, where he joked about his tiredness and hinted at needing rest.
“Pagod na ang katawan ko, pero hindi pa rin ako titigil sa pagpapasaya,” he said with a grin.
(“My body’s tired, but I’ll never stop making people smile.”)
Hours later, he was reportedly found unresponsive in his residence.
AN UNFINISHED STORY
Perhaps what makes Chad’s passing even more painful is the sense of incompletion — the content he planned, the jokes he had yet to tell, the lives he still could’ve touched.
His official YouTube channel had over 1 million subscribers, with comments now flooded by broken-hearted fans and emotional goodbyes.
“You saved me from depression. You’ll always be my hero,” one comment reads.
“I never met you in person, but I feel like I lost a friend.”
FAMILY AND MANAGEMENT STATEMENT EXPECTED
As of this moment, Chad’s family and management team have not yet issued a formal statement. Friends close to the comedian have asked the public for prayers and privacy during this devastating time.
Fans are also calling for a public tribute or memorial to celebrate Chad’s life, artistry, and influence — a sentiment echoed by fellow comedians and content creators.
FINAL THOUGHT:
The sudden death of Chad Kinis is more than a loss to Philippine comedy — it is a painful reminder of how fragile life can be. In a world burdened with sadness and struggle, Chad was a light — loud, unapologetic, and overflowing with joy.
And though that light may have dimmed too soon, its glow will forever live on in the laughter, memories, and hearts of those he left behind.
