In a night of brilliance, sparkle, and glamor, various big celebrities walked the red carpet at the Asian TV Awards last December 02, 2016 (Friday) held at the Suntec Singapore Convention and Exhibition Centre.
Filipino pride, Alden Richards, was one of the show’s main hosts alongside Adrian Pang, Stephanie Carrington, Baki Zainal, and Fiona Su. Aside from Alden, the other Filipino stars who also guested were: Michael V (who was once again nominated for the Best Comedy Performance by an Actor category for ‘Pepito Manaloto’) and Ivy Grace Paredes (X Factor UK contestant who performed in one of the segments).
