After 44 years, Eat Bulaga was rumored to undergo ‘rebranding’ because of the possible result of a power struggle between its officials.
The rumors started when several staff of the said noontime show revealed that the Television and Production Exponents (TAPE) and former congressman Romeo Jalosjos wanted the founding producer of Eat Bulaga, Tony Tuviera, to leave Eat Bulaga.
Tuviera is rumored to gain the support of most of Eat Bulaga’s hosts, including Tito Sotto, Vic Sotto, and Joey de Leon.
It was rumored that Jalosjos was now searching for replacements for the current hosts of Eat Bulaga in preparation for the rebranding, including Willie Revillame.
In a report from Bilyonaryo.com, Jalosjos allegedly contacted Revillame to become a host of Eat Bulaga if ever the majority of the hosts decided to leave the show.
A poster is circulating about the possible new title of Eat Bulaga under Jalosjos.
In the photo, it can be shown that Revillame, Allan K, and influencer Bretman Rock will lead the show titled ‘Wow Bulaga.’
Jose Manalo, Wally Bayola, Miguel Tanfelix, Tyronia Fowler, and Rosmar Tan were also included in the poster.
None of the celebrities mentioned confirmed if they had already met with TAPE.
It’s not yet known if the said poster was legitimately from the production team of Eat Bulaga.
It can be recalled that several Eat Bulaga hosts, including Sotto and De Leon, already reacted to the news but didn’t directly confirm the rumors.
Meanwhile, fans of the noontime show were still hoping that the internal issue with the officials of Eat Bulaga would be resolved peacefully.
