Unkabogable star Vice Ganda made a surprise appearance to honor the show’s accomplishments and its team, including former ‘Showtime Online U’ host Ana Ramsey in a celebration of It’s Showtime’s 15th anniversary.
The event, which also marked the 8th anniversary of ‘Showtime Online U,’ featured performances by current hosts Lorraine Galvez, Wize Estabillo, Nicki Morena, AC Soriano, Sheena Belarmino, Anthony Castillo, JM dela Cerna, Marielle Montellano, Anne Tenorio, Eris Aragoza, Mackie Empuerto, and Jannah Analise. Their lively performances were a highlight of the celebration.
Vice Ganda took to the stage to personally thank the ‘Showtime Online U’ hosts for their significant role in maintaining the show’s online audience.
In a touching tribute, Vice also praised Ana Ramsey, who was a key figure in the early days of the online show but has since transitioned to TV5’s ‘Wil To Win’ alongside Willie Revillame.
“Sa inyong lahat, sa lahat ng nagsimula. Kay Ana Ramsey, maraming, maraming salamat,” Vice Ganda said. “You’ve been so good! Ang galing galing mo. Magpakagaling diyan at papalakpakan ka namin.”
Ana Ramsey acknowledged Vice Ganda’s gesture with a video message on her X (formerly Twitter) account, expressing her gratitude. “Happy Anniversary ‘Showtime Online Universe’! @itsShowtimeNa. Love you ate @vicegandako,” she wrote.
