Rhian Ramos will be part of the new GMA News TV hosting the Kapuso network's all-news channel's showbiz-oriented talk show, "Spotlight: The Showbiz Newscast."
This puts her in the league of Pia Guanio, Rufa Mae Quinto, Mo Twister, Maxene Magalona, Ruffa and Raymond Gutierrez, KC Concepcion, Toni Gonzaga, and Charlene Gonzales--showbiz personalities who deliver entertainment news and, at times, are also in the news.
So what would Rhian do if she has to do a report on an issue that concerns her or is connected to her? For instance, how would she do a report on TV5 host and rumored boyfriend Mo Twister?
"I think it's either ako or baka kay Nelson Canlas or Aubrey Carampel kasi baka weird kung galing sa akin," she said in an interview during the GMA News TV trade launch on Monday, February 7, at the A. Venue Events Hall in Makati City.
She added, "At lahat naman ng mga actors and actresses, kahit sila mismo ang nagbabalita minsan, hindi sila exempt di ba? Hindi naman sila mga untouchables. So kahit naman ako pwedeng ibalita."
Serious news
Rhian explained that "Spotlight" would be different from the existing showbiz talk shows today because they will deliver showbiz news in a serious manner. "Yung style ng show namin, iba sya kasi ibabalita namin yung showbiz news kung paano binabalita yung regular news," she said.
Rhian said the show will be handled by the GMA News and Public Affairs team. "So lahat ng researchers namin, very experienced. Alam nila kung anong ginagawa nila and gusto namin idala yun sa mundo ng showbiz na kung paano kami magresearch sa ibang mga issue o bagay, ganun din ang mabibigay naming detalye sa showbiz news," Rhian elaborated.
"Marami naman akong mga kaibigan na host din ng mga sarili nilang showbiz oriented shows. Si Maxene Magalona, si Mo Twister, si Ruffa Gutierrez, Raymond Gutierrez, Pia Guanio-they're all my friends and paminsan minsan laman ako ng balitang binabalita nila. At least marami akong kaibigan na ganun din ang ginagawa. Matatanong ko sila, mabibigyan nila ako ng advice. And I think naman makakahanap din ako ng balance katulad ng kung paano nila ginawa," she added.
But her new role as a showbiz talk show host doesn't mean she'll give up her career as an actress. Being the host of "Spotlight," she said, allows her to explore one of her passions. After all, Rhian was once a host of her own lifestyle show in a cable channel back when she was still starting out in show business.
"Actually, before pa naman, isa sa mga love ko, isa sa mga passion ko, is hosting. Ito ang isang paraan para magawa ko yun... At least dito makakapaghost ako lagi pero in a more serious platform kasi news broadcasting sya," she said.
"Spotlight: The Showbiz Newscast" premieres February 28.
