Alden Richards with Vice Ganda? Yep, it finally happened! The actor kicked off the newest season of “Gandang Gabi Vice” with an episode packed with juicy revelations and fun challenges. Check out more of their fun moments in the gallery.
In the pilot episode of "GGV" comeback on September 13, Vice and Alden looked back and laughed at the supposed “rivalry” between “It’s Showtime” and the noontime program that Alden was part of with his then-love team partner Maine Mendoza, together known as AlDub. For Alden, that chapter in Philippine TV was definitely one for the books.
The ‘Pambansang Bae’ also didn't back down from the revelations Vice unearthed about his younger years. He was apparently a familiar face at the guidance office during elementary school because of disciplinary concerns. Alden remembers his student life as fun, and judging by the stories he still has to tell, it was certainly never boring.
Alden named Anne Curtis as his first showbiz crush, which, of course, earned some 'violent' reactions from Vice. But from all the teasing, the conversation turned serious as Alden opened up about his relationship history. He revealed that he's only had two official girlfriends, both non-showbiz in his student days. His showbiz love life, however, is filled with “what ifs.” Alden revealed that he's courted five women in the industry, but they all remained “almosts,” with either him or the girl pulling away before the 'relationship' could progress further.
His "GGV" guesting wouldn't be complete without putting him through fun challenges. In the "Deep Truth" segment, he had to read a statement and let Vice and her co-hosts Verna Periwinkle and Tetay guess whether it was “trot” (truth) or “charot” (lie).
Of course, you can't have an award-winning actor like Alden on the show and not make him act, right? He jumped right into an impromptu 'vertical drama' scene, playing the devoted suitor of Vice, much to the dismay of his disapproving mom, played by Tetay. And then lawyer Verna arrived to reveal that Vice was actually an heiress.
Alden certainly made GGV's comeback one to remember, and now we can't wait to see which stars will be sharing secrets and stories with Vice next.
