It’s Showtime fam’s ‘unkabogable’ red carpet moments at the ABS-CBN Ball

For over 15 years, the ever-growing, gregarious family of “It’s Showtime” has been making our noontime viewing habit totally enjoyable through the funny shenanigans of the hosts, as well as their hilarious banters with one another, the madlang audience, the contestants, and other members of their family. 

But aside from providing everyone with good vibes and laughter, our beloved hosts definitely also know how to slay not just with their edgy and casual OOTDs onstage, but at the red carpet of the ABS-CBN Ball, too! With the highly anticipated star-studded gathering going to have its fourth staging this coming April 4, let us revisit how they sashayed in their stunning and stylish garb in this special feature!

It was in 2018 when the first-ever ABS-CBN Ball was staged. At the time, several members of “It’s Showtime”’s in-house boy group, Hashtags, showed up together in their suits of different colors, silhouettes, and designs. Vhong Navarro, meanwhile, swooned us with his suave look in a classic suit and tie, which matched the long-sleeved black dress of his partner, Amy Perez.

Anne Curtis was no doubt every inch a princess in her classy black sweetheart gown, which her husband, Erwan Heussaff, perfectly complemented her by putting on a classic black and white suit and tie. Her “sisterette” Vice Ganda, on the other hand, grabbed everyone’s attention with her shimmering beaded form-fitting black maxi dress, to which a 20-foot long stained glass-inspired cape was attached. She completed her controversial ensemble by putting on a wavy blonde wig and a thorn crown, not to mention that her anak-anakan, Ryan Bang, who was in an all-black ensemble, was her dashing escort.

The following year (2019), everyone made sure that their attires had Filipiniana touch on them, including the “It’s Showtime” fam! Ate Girl Jackie Gonzaga was so pretty in her baby pink dress, while her fellow dancer Stephen Robles was so stunning in her yellow Filipiniana as she walked down the red carpet with BidaMan grand winner Jin Macapagal. 

Karylle captivated us with her modern take on the terno as she opted for a pantsuit with a detachable cape, while Vhong came in a suit with various shades of orange. Anne attended solo this time in a dreamy tiered lavender Filipiniana, while real-life couple and former “It’s Showtime” hosts Billy Crawford and Coleen Garcia arrived together in their fabulous outfits.

Of course, Vice once again proved that she’s indeed the one and only “Unkabogable Star” by dazzling us with her colorful and heavily embellished gown, which she paired with a shiny gold crown.

And for the third staging of the ABS-CBN Ball in 2023, the “It’s Showtime” fam didn’t allow themselves to be left behind from all the glitz and glamour of the star-studded spectacle. Jackie and Cianne Dominguez made the whole place shimmer (and scorching!) with their sexy gowns that displayed their svelte figures. Walking down the red carpet prior to them were actually their soon-to-be co-host Darren Espanto and her lovely date, Kapuso star Cassy Legaspi. 

They were followed by the dynamic duo of Lassy Marquez and MC Muah, who both paraded in edgy yet stylish ensembles, then by our very own Korean “oppa” Ryan Bang, who chose to show up in a classic tuxedo.

Jhong Hilario was also present and wowed us with his unique all-black suit that he decorated with a red faux flower. Seasoned actress and Mini Miss U hurado Gladys Reye graced the event as well in a black number, with her beloved husband, actor Christopher Roxas, being her handsome “plus one.”

Last, but definitely not the least, was the real-life couple Vice Ganda and Ion Perez, who spread kilig vibes when they walked down the red carpet together. Vice wore a royal blue gown, which Ion matched with his dapper suit. They were actually preceded by their co-host Kim Chiu, who mesmerized us with her sparkling, form-fitting gown. 

Are you as excited as us to see how our beloved “It’s Showtime” fam will show up in the forthcoming ABS-CBN Ball 2025 happening on April 4? Well, let us all just wait and see by catching the event via livestream on the ABS-CBN Entertainment YouTube Channel!
