In a recent episode of the popular Philippine show ‘It’s Showtime,’ host and comedian Vice Ganda playfully teased co-hosts Kim Chiu and Jackie Gonzaga, creating a humorous moment that quickly caught the attention of viewers.
The light-hearted banter unfolded during the show’s segment called ‘Rampanalo.’ Kim Chiu and Jackie Gonzaga both wore flower necklaces that bore a striking resemblance to each other. This prompted Vice Ganda, known for his wit and humor, to crack a series of jokes, adding an entertaining twist to the show.
Vice Ganda began by asking, “Ang tanong ng bayan, kanino daw ba talaga ang mas malaking bulaklak, ang sa iyo (Jackie) o kay Kim Chiu?”
This humorous inquiry set the stage for laughter as both the hosts and the audience joined in the fun.
Kim and Jackie, good sports as always, leaned in to display their flower necklaces more prominently, contributing to the light-hearted atmosphere of the moment.
Vice Ganda continued with his witty remarks, asking again, “Sino daw ba ang may mas malaking bulaklak, si Kim Chiu ba o si Jackie?” Kim Chiu, known for her charming personality, confidently responded, “Ang bulaklak ko ay napakalaki! Ito ay buong-buo, at bukang-buka!”
She further joked, “Ito ay kasing-blooming ko ngayon!” eliciting more laughter from the audience.
Vice Ganda humorously described Kim’s flower as being fully matured and in full bloom, even suggesting that the petals had opened wide, playing along with the playful spirit of the segment.
Turning his attention to Jackie Gonzaga, he characterized her flower as “mysterious.” When it’s dark, it’s shy, but when the sun shines on it, it starts to bloom, adding another layer of amusement to the banter.

In a comedic twist, Vice Ganda turned to a contestant named “Gerald” and asked him whose flower he would like to take home: Jackie’s or Kim’s? Kim, taking it all in stride, chuckled and suggested that Gerald should take Jackie’s flower.
While the segment provided entertainment and laughter to many viewers, some expressed concerns that it might lead to another summons from the Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB). This concern arises as there are pending decisions related to various complaints about the show, including a recent incident involving Vice Ganda and Ion Perez eating cake icing during the ‘Isip Bata’ segment.
In addition to this playful exchange, there was also talk about Kim Chiu accidentally mentioning the word “vibrator” during a previous episode of ‘Tawag ng Tanghalan,‘ where she praised a contestant’s singing voice, adding an element of surprise and humor to the show.
