“It’s Showtime” has been serving us with laughter and good vibes in the past 15 years not just through the hilarious banters and shenanigans of its ever-gregarious hosts, but also through its unique and fun segments. And just recently, the well-loved noontime program once again came up with another exhilarating and enjoyable new segment that probably left everyone laughing out loud—the “Dugtungan Dance Challenge.”

 A week since it was launched, the hosts had done it a couple of times already, especially whenever they still had a lot of time to spare. It was launched in the December 7 broadcast when there were still a few minutes left before wrap-up and the hosts had to stretch their kulitan onstage.

 Thus, the Kapamilya hosts thought of taking on the “Dugtungan Dance Challenge,” which indeed brought entertainment not only to themselves but to the madlang people as well. The game is a kind of relay in which participants have to line up and each has to mimic the dance step of the person before him/her and do a different step as well that the person next to him/her has to imitate. And the process goes on until the first person in the queue takes his turn to copy the dance step done by the last person.

 As we look forward to seeing more of it in the coming days, let’s look back on the editions of “Dugtungan Dance Challenge” that the “It’s Showtime” hosts had taken on over the past days along with their celebrity guests in this Kapamilya Update feature!

 Just on its debut, three celebrity guests participated in the game right away- and Kapamilya heartthrob Kyle Echarri and “Tawag ng Tanghalan” hurados Marco Sison and Erik Santos. While we’ve already seen Kyle dance through his numbers in “ASAP” every Sunday, many were indeed amused when Erik and Marco showed off their hidden dancing skills since we typically see them sing.

 The madlang people and SB19 fans alike were absolutely delighted when Stell Ajero, main vocalist and lead dancer of the esteemed Pinoy Pop group, joined the “It’s Showtime” fam in playing the game during an episode of the “And The Breadwinner Is…” segment. And he didn’t only do it once but twice!

 While some of the hosts and the celebrity guests, especially the ones who really don’t dance, just busted simple grooves, the others took the game very seriously by doing intricate and ridiculous dance steps—much to the amusement of everyone. 

 Still thinking of games to make your upcoming parties these holidays extra fun and thrilling? Why not include the “Dugtungan Dance Challenge”?
