The landscape of fame, fan engagement, and social connection in general has changed drastically in the past few years alone. Kumu is not only set for this, but always primed for the next big thing, while also giving current headliners and their fans an easy avenue through which to connect.
One such household name is Vice Ganda, known for their in-your-face comedy and unapologetic self-expression, in addition to major projects such as The Unkabogable Praybeyt Benjamin (and its sequel), three studio albums, and numerous television appearances and hosting engagements over the years.
The comedian, box office star, and general media darling’s upcoming Kumu stream, The VG-TAL Kumu Invazhown, set to go live on July 28, 2022 at 7pm PHT, marks a myriad of milestones: their first show on Kumu, the expansion of celebrities’ networks on the social entertainment app, and the first major raffle on Kumu, with the biggest prize those who tune in can win being a brand new GAC Subcompact GS3.
Vice Ganda will, of course, be joined by friends and fellow entertainers Lassy and MC to present their variety show live, spotlighting the comedy and social commentary circles on the app. The raffle will also be conducted live, giving the Kumunity a chance to win amazing prizes, including:
○ Php 100k via GCash
○ 10 motorcycles with gas vouchers
○ Mountain and road bikes
○ Php 150k worth of Home Suite products (two sala sets, two dining sets)
○ A three-bedroom showcase ℅ Uratex
“[I am feeling] eksaheradang excitement because this will be my first time to go live on Kumu! Chugchug na harutan at unkabogable ang Prize Ganda na ipapamigay sa madlang Kumunizens!” says the comedian of the upcoming event. To their fans, they had this to say: “The digital invazhown has only started, mga vaklang twoah! [I am really] looking forward to doing more unkabogable livestreams para GV-GV tayo!”
“Kumu is really about connection, even though we call ourselves a social entertainment app,” says Angelo Mendez, Kumu’s Co-founder and Chief of Content. “We’ve laid the foundations for people to redefine celebrity, as well as for aspiring artists to be completely in charge of the trajectory of their careers. People find Vice Ganda inspiring, even confidence-boosting, and we’re proud to be a big part of building bridges like that.”
