Vice Ganda recently addressed concerns about his on-air interactions with fellow “It’s Showtime” co-host Anne Curtis after a video clip prompted discussions on social media regarding their playful, yet sometimes physical, antics. In response to a netizen’s comment that criticized a specific incident where Vice was seen being physically assertive towards Curtis, the comedian took to X (formerly Twitter) to clarify the dynamics of their friendship.
The netizen expressed discomfort over an episode during “Tawag ng Tanghalan” where, after being pranked by another co-host, Jhong Hilario, Vice mistakenly believed Curtis was the prankster, leading to a playful physical reaction. The follower urged Vice to maintain respect for Curtis, emphasizing the importance of boundaries even in jest.
In his response, Vice Ganda explained, “Don’t worry about us. We are the ones in this friendship, so we will decide how we will treat each other. Friends have different dynamics.” He reassured fans that their interactions were consensual and understood within the context of their long-standing friendship.
Further supporting their camaraderie, Vice Ganda shared a compilation video of their affectionate moments together, captioning it with a heartfelt message about his love for Curtis, whom he affectionately calls his “sisterette.”
This clarification from Vice Ganda has been met with support from many fans and viewers who appreciate the close bond shared by the “It’s Showtime” hosts, understanding their interactions as part of the humor and entertainment that they bring to the show.
