FOR the first time in years, Vice Ganda is not starring in a Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF) entry.
In a tweet on Friday, the “It’s Showtime” host himself shared that he is not used to having a relatively quiet Christmas Day unlike in the previous years.
“Dec. 25, 2020. Walang MMFF first day kaba and ngarag. Walang cinema tours. Walang mall tours. Walang kaliwa’t kanan na texts and calls from VIVA and Star Cinema kung magkano na ang gross every after screening hours,” he said.
Describing his Dec. 25 this year, he said: “Tahimik lang. Kalmado lang. Ibang iba. Kakamiss din.”
Back in July, the organizers of the MMFF announced the first four entries for the 2020 edition and one of them was Vice Ganda’s “Praybeyt Benjamin 3.”
However, due to constraints posed by the coronavirus pandemic, Vice Ganda was not able to finish shooting the film in time for the festival. Since 2012, Vice Ganda has always had a busy Christmas because his movies were always part of the MMFF. (ABS-CBN
