Kim Atienza Earns Praise from Netizens After Refusing the Offer to Host Eat Bulaga
The netizens thanked the TV host and Trivia Master Kuya Kim Atienza for allegedly rejecting the offer to host the noontime show Eat Bulaga.
To recall, Kuya Kim has been listed as one of the probable hosts for the revamped edition of GMA Network’s longest-running noontime show. The trivia master, along with Paolo Contis and Buboy Villar, were considered for the role of host.
However, Kuya Kim is missing to be present on the premiere episode of Eat Bulaga’s new version, fuelling speculation that the host turned down the offer. Noel Ferrer, Kuya Kim’s manager, issued a statement rejecting the report by entertainment writer Jun Lalin.
According to the manager, it is hard for his talent to accept the Eat Bulaga offer because he already has a contract and a program. Kuya Kim currently co-hosts the GMA morning show TIKTOCLOCK with Comedienne Pokwang.
“We’d like to clarify that HE CANNOT DO THE EAT BULAGA REPLACEMENT SHOW as it conflicts with his prior commitment with the daily program “TIKTOCLOCK” (which is also performing very well in the ratings) produced by GMA Network where Kim is contracted as an exclusive talent,” Ferrer said in his post.
Netizens praised the TV host for declining the offer, claiming he demonstrated ‘delicadeza’ by declining to join the competitor show of his old show It’s Showtime. The internet community also stressed Kuya Kim’s respect for TVJ for refusing the deal from TAPE Inc.
