‘Ang Pinaka’ host renews ties with Kapuso
TV host Rovilson Fernandez is extending his stay with GMA Network.
Joining him at the contract signing were GMA Network Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Atty. Felipe L. Gozon; Senior Vice President for News and Public Affairs Marissa L. Flores; and Senior Assistant Vice President for Public Affairs Neil B. Gumban.
Rovilson shared how grateful he is to be with the Kapuso Network for over a decade now.
“It’s just an absolute blessing. It’s nice to be part of this family. I’m so grateful,” he said.
Rovilson hosts the awardwinning and long-running infotainment program “Ang Pinaka” on GMA News TV. Every week, “Ang Pinaka” lists the top 10 of topics that range from pop culture, entertainment, politics, travel, food, social media, music, trivia, and others.
Now on its 15th year, some of the most interesting features are the oddest proposed bills and ordinances, amazing animals with super powers, national historical figures, amazing natural wonders, urban legends, and popular showbiz love teams, among others.
“That is the genius of our writers and our production team,” Rovilson proudly expressed. “They still keep it fresh—we’ve literally aired brand new episodes every week for 52 weeks, and rarely do we have repeat episodes. That’s just kudos to them for always reinventing the show. I have the easy job; I just get to basically read out their work and, of course, what is vital is the participation of our viewers and our readers. We always engage them and they let us know what they want to watch and that’s what keeps it fresh.”
Aside from hosting, Rovilson is also an appointed National Peace Ambassador of the country, the Philippines’ first National Ambassadors for World Wide Fund (WWF) along with Marc Nelson. He is also Hong Kong & Singapore Tourism Board’s Ambassador of Goodwill to the Philippines and Earth Hour Philippines Ambassador.
“Ang Pinaka” airs Sundays, 6:30 p.m. on GMA News TV.
