One of the reasons why Vice Ganda decided to launch his own network is for his fellow stand-up comedians who lost their jobs.
This Friday, July 24, Vice Ganda Network’s operation will begin in the online world via digital talk show “Gabing-gabi Na Vice.”
According to the phenomenal Box-office Star, apart from reaching out to his fans and followers, another reason why he formed VGN is to provide work to stand-up comedians affected by COVID-19 pandemic.

“Awang-awa ako sa mga bakla. Ang dami sa kanila ang down na down at depressed na depressed. Sobrang nag-aaala ako para sa kanila at isa itong paraan para maiahon ko sila do’n sa kawalan ng pag-asa, na hindi na nila magagawa yung pagpapatawa na mahal na mahal nila,” he said.
“Yung live performances nawala. Ang mga comedy bars nagsara at hindi ko makitang magbubukas sila anytime soon dahil hindi rin naman puwede yung gatherings ng mararaming tao. So, nawalan ng hanapbuhay ang napakaraming komedyante at ang sakit-sakit sa puso ko nu’n,” he added.
When the lockdown in Metro Manila began, Vice took the opportunity to plan and prepare everything needed to form the VGN immediately.
