Former “Eat Bulaga” hosts Jose Manalo and Wally Bayola reportedly declined an offer of P2 million each to stay as hosts in the longest-running noontime show on GMA Network.
According to veteran showbiz columnist Cristy Fermin, the duo was offered to stay and not to join Tito Sotto, Vic Sotto and Joey de Leon.
“May tumawag po kay Jose at Wally na huwag sumama sa Tito, Vic at Joey. At agaran daw po, padadalhan sila ng tsekeng tig-P2 million,” she said.
“Hindi po nila pinatulan ‘yung two million pesos… at iyon na nga po isang grupo ang Dabarkads sumama sa Tito, Vic at Joey,” she added.
The hosts of “Eat Bulaga” filed a mass resignation following the announcement of Tito Sotto, Vic Sotto and Joey de Leon that they would be parting ways with Television and Production Exponents Inc. (TAPE).
Hosts Jose, Wally, Paolo Ballesteros, Maine Mendoza, Ryzza Mae Dizon and Ryan Agoncillo filed their resignations dated May 31, 2023, addressed to TAPE’s Romeo Jalosjos Jr., as seen on Pauleen Luna’s Instagram Stories.
“Dahil po sa mga nangyari, kami po ay magpapaalam na rin sa TAPE Inc. simula ngayong araw,” the letter read.
Cristy also revealed last month that Jose and Wally’s salaries in the noontime show were also delayed.
“'Isang source po ang nagsabi sa amin na 'yun po pala 'yung panahon na pati po pala na pati sila ay delayed ang kanilang sweldo sa ‘Eat Bulaga’,” she said.
“Napakabait ng dalawang ito. Wala ngang maririnig, walang reklamo. Nasu-show. Bigay na bigay ang isang daang porsiyento, hindi pala sila sumisweldo,” she added.
Cristy Fermin. Now that’s a name I haven’t heard in a long time…
May palabas siya sa Radyo Singko, bago mag-Tulfo
Originally its 4-6PM pero for some reason (and due to PBA sa RADYO5) it got move timeslot
Them fukken Jalosjop group, man…
They’ve been with that group for a long time. A really long time. Saw a youtube videos na bata pa si Ryzza, at ngayon dalaga na siya. It’s hard to let go of that unless they themselves have issues with TVJ.
