Bea Alonzo gave away an early Christmas treat to “Eat Bulaga” participants by sharing with them the P50,000 cash prize she won in the show’s “Bawal Judgmental” segment.
The actress took part in the segment as a guest in the noontime variety show, as seen on its YouTube channel last Saturday, Oct. 8. Alonzo listened to the stories of the four participants — addressed in the show as “choices” — who all became orphans at a young age.
Alonzo then stated that she will be giving her cash prize to the segment “choices” as she was moved by their determination despite hardships in life.
“Ang bigat pero I have to say na very inspiring din kasi sa kabila ng mga pinagdaanan niyo, napakatapang at napaka-strong niyong tao,” Alonzo said. “Nakikita ko sa mga mata niyo ‘yung kindness kahit ang daming challenges sa buhay niyo. Dahil d’yan, gusto kong i-share sa inyo ito.”
(It is heavy, but I have to say that it is also very inspiring because despite what you have been through, you [became] a courageous and strong person. I see kindness in your eyes despite the challenges in your lives. Because of that, I want to share this [cash prize] with all of you.)
Meanwhile, Alonzo currently stars in “Start-Up PH,” the Philippine adaptation of the hit Korean drama “Start-Up,” alongside Alden Richards and Jeric Gonzales. The original drama “Start-Up” follows the story of young entrepreneurs in Korea’s start-up industry. EDV
