Ethel Booba and Ate Gay were conspicuously absent on “Wowowillie” on Friday, prompting speculation that the two had been axed from the one-month-old show following a row with main host and co-producer Willie Revillame.
During Thursday’s program, Willie reported that he had castigated Ethel and Ate Gay in the dressing room for being “unprofessional”. He said the two comedians had vehemently complained to him after they lost to choreographer Anna Feliciano in the show’s “Mini-Concierto” segment.
“Nagalit sila dahil hindi sila nanalo sa costume… Ang lalaki na ng ulo n’yo!.. If you want to resign right now, go! Hindi ko kayo pipigilan,” Willie said.
He questioned their sense of gratitude and reminded them that he was their boss: “Mag-isip kayo dahil ako ang nagpapasuweldo sa inyo!”
He was particularly angry at Ethel whom, he said, he had hired despite the misgivings of many.
On Friday Ethel’s Twiter account was bombarded with questions about her fate as a co-host on “Wowowillie”.
She poked fun at a couple of queries, which mistakenly referred to the show with the names of Willie’s defunct programs, “Wowowee” and “Wiltime Big Time”.
