Television and Production Exponents Inc. (TAPE Inc.) chief finance officer Bullet Jalosjos addressed the criticisms being received by the new hosts of Eat Bulaga.
In an interview with CNN Philippines, Jalosjos said that televiewers should give a chance to their new talents consisting of Paolo Contis, Betong Sumaya, Buboy Villar, Cassy and Mavy Legaspi, and Alexa Miro.
According to him, they only wanted to give happiness to the public after the original hosts of Eat Bulaga left last May 31.
“For all the bashers, sana naman po bigyan n’yo naman po ng pagkakataon ang mga talents namin na ipakita naman po, mapasaya ang mga taong-bayan during this time,” said Jalosjos.
“Wala po kaming hangarin kung hindi magbigay saya sa ating mga taong-bayan at manunuod.” he added.
It can be recalled that thousands of Eat Bulaga fans criticized the said hosts and even swarmed their social media pages to express their dissatisfaction.
Some even accused them of trying to rival the original hosts, but Paolo already denied it, saying that they only wanted to help people.
It was reported that Isko Moreno and Herlene “Hipon Girl” Budol would also become an addition to the new hosts of the show to maintain its number one ratings in the noontime slot.
