During one of the first few episodes of the variety show, Revillame shared how he met Cayabyab at the house of their fellow host Verzosa, saying he even mistook the singer for a house helper.

An emotional Cayabyab, recalling how he joined the show, then admitted, “Nung araw na sinabihan mo (Revillame) akong mag-audition, nag-doubt ako kasi hindi ko alam kung kaya ko.”

“Pero nung na-consider niyo po ako, unti-unti kong na-appreciate na naniniwala akong may talent pala talaga ako,” he said.

Meanwhile, “Wil to Win” recently made headlines after Revillame aired his dismay over the staff of the show. Some netizens also pointed out how the main host even lectures his co-hosts on air.

Revillame also earlier took back a player’s chance to win a cash prize after he learned that the latter is an avid fan of the show’s competitor “Family Feud.”
