Kim Chiu celebrated her 1st anniversary as an "It's Showtime" host with a trending show-stopping performance wherein she danced a Chinese instrumental song to Miley Cyrus' "Wrecking Ball" while drenched in the rain shower effect last Saturday (Oct. 23).
Kim admitted that she never expected to stay for long in the program but she overcame the challenges, and now she is happy to serve her purpose to bring joy to the madlang pipol.
"It's a roller coaster ride of emotions pero mahilig ako sa extreme rides. I'm here for the ride sa harap pa ako nakaupo. Ang daming nangyari. Hindi ko alam na aabot ako dito ng isang taon sa 'It's Showtime.' Ang daming balakid pero ito tayo nakangiti. Ganoon talaga kapag may pinagdadaanan, dadaanan lang. Kaya tuloy ang buhay, tuloy ang pagbibigay saya," she remembered.
The Chinita Princess shared that she learned a lot from the show, and she thanked the bosses and her co-hosts for giving her a chance to join the "It's Showtime" family.
"Salamat, 'It's Showtime.' I've learned a lot. Every day is a learning experience. Every day may binibigay kayong chance sa akin dito sa 'It's Showtime' at dito sa entabladong ito. Ang gusto ko lang naman magpasaya at mag-inspire ng tao. May this show continue its purpose na magbigay ng saya at inspirasyon, tagumpay, and hope sa lahat ng madlang pipol na patuloy na nagbibigay support," she added.
Aside from Kim Chiu's powerful performance, viewers tuned into the weekly finals of "Reina ng Tahanan." Lina San Antonio was hailed as the Reina ng Tahanan weekly winner after receiving the highest score of 93.3% from judges Ruffa Gutierrez, Gelli de Belen, and Karylle.
