Actor Keempee De Leon who is one of the cast of the upcoming Kapamilya series “Nang Ngumiti Ang Langit” revealed how he fought for his right to guest on “It’s Showtime” amid being advised by “Eat Bulaga” executive not to appear in ABS-CBN’s daily noon time show.
In a report by ABS-CBN News, Keempee, during a press conference, revealed that TAPE executive Malou Choa-Fagar texted him and told him not to guest on “It’s Showtime” which is the rival show of “Eat Bulaga” where he became host for 14 years.

Keempee said: “I’d been with ‘Eat Bulaga’ for 14 years and then wala na ako sa kanila for 3 years. Si Tita Malou Choa-Fagar (TAPE executive) tinext niya ako about that at sabi niya kumbaga since katapat ng ‘Eat Bulaga’ parang hindi puwede mag-guest dahil katapat ng ‘Eat Bulaga.’ Sabi niya it’s work ethics naman. Pero ipinaglaban ko. Sabi ko gusto ko mag-guest.”
“Sabi ko I’m just being professional to my work, and at the same time lumipat na naman ako. I’m not with them. So gusto ko i-promote ‘yung show. Hindi naman po porke nag-guest ako sa ‘Showtime’ ay kinakalaban ko po sila. It’s about promoting the show ‘Nang Ngumiti Ang Langit’. Sabi ko kay Tita Malou sana po walang personalan, trabaho ko po ito. It’s my choice and I had to move on,” Keempee added.
Keempee recently appeared as one of the searchers in the Kapamilya noon time show’s ‘KapareWho’ segment.
