Philippine comedy queen Ai-Ai delas Alas and "primetime queen" Marian Rivera are headlining a new Sunday TV show on GMA network.
Sunday Pinasaya will premiere on GMA's international channel, GMA Pinoy TV, on August 9. On its pilot episode, over 10 million pesos worth of prizes are to be given away, tax free.
According to GMA, the program "redefines the usual variety show, as it offers viewers unique production numbers featuring the hottest celebrities, comedy sketches and fun-filled games".
“We’ll make them laugh, we’ll give prizes and they’ll be able to see the various talents of the cast,” Rivera said.
Delas Alas admitted that she couldn’t wait for the show to start. “I said to myself, ‘Is this really it? When will it start?’ And then they said it was a go. I’m excited because this show is comedy-based. We’ll make you laugh first before we make you even happier with prizes. They can look forward to more great performances from their favourite artists,” she said.
Comic tandem Jose Manalo and Wally Bayola will also feature in the variety show, along with Alden Richards, Julie Anne San Jose, Barbie Forteza, Joey Paras, Valeen Montenegro and Jerald Napoles.
