Stars recognized at the PMPC Star Awards for TV

SEVERAL TV personalities were recognized during the 31st Philippine Movie Press Club (PMPC) Star Awards for Television last November 12, Sunday, at Ateneo de Manila University (ADMU). Some stars tied for certain categories.

These included the Best Drama Actor award which was won by two actors from GMA Network–Ruru Madrid for “Encantadia” and Kapuso Primetime King Dingdong Dantes for “Alyas Robin Hood.”

Madrid, on his Instagram account, thanked God, his family, supporters and the PMPC for the recognition.

“Mahal na mahal ko kayo wala ako sa kinatatayuan ko kung hindi dahil sa inyo,” read part of his post. He also thanked the people behind “Encantadia” including director Mark Reyes.

Also tied for the Best Single Performance by an Actor award were Alden Richards who portrayed a guy with autism in Eat Bulaga’s Lenten presentation, “Kapatid” and John Estrada who was cited for his role in the Maalaala Mo Kaya (MMK) episode, “Mansanas at Juice.”

Two love teams were recognized as German Moreno Power Tandem of the Year: Joshua Garcia and Julia Barretto of ABS-CBN and Sanya Lopez and Rocco Nacino of GMA 7. Sylvia Sanchez received the Best Drama Actress award for “The Greatest Love”.

Maricel Soriano won for best Single Performance by an Actress for her role in the MMK episode, “Baso”.

“Wildflower” stars Arnold Reyes and Aiko Melendez were recognized as Best Supporting Actor and Best Supporting Actress, respectively.

Melendez plays the character of Emilia Ardiente while Reyes portrays Arthur Dela Peña.  Kapuso Primetime Queen Marian Rivera won the Best Female TV Host award for GMA’s “Sunday Pinasaya” and the same show won the Best Sunday Program.

“Ang layunin ng Sunday Pinasaya ay makapag bigay ng saya sa mga taong linggo-linggo, Maraming salamat PMPC sa karangalang ito ang aking ‘PINASAYA’ ninyo,” Rivera said.

“It’s Showtime” host Vice Ganda was recognized as Best Male TV Host. Members of the show’s boy group Hashtag received the award on his behalf and dedicated it to their fellow member, Franco Hernandez who died in a drowning incident last Saturday.
