MANILA — Comedian and television host Vice Ganda opened up about her special friendship with actress Anne Curtis during an interview on Karen Davila’s YouTube vlog, describing it as one of a kind.

“Iba ‘yung closeness kasi namin ni Anne. Marami kaming pinag-uusapan na kaming dalawa lang ‘yung nagi-enjoy. Iba ‘yung understanding namin and tsaka open kami sa isa’t isa. We support each other so much,” Vice said.

She emphasized that their friendship is precious and something they both cherish and protect. “Iba talaga ‘yung love ko kay Anne, very special siya sa akin. I miss her. I long for her. I care for her so much. I love her so much. Makikipag-away ako for her. I can be very brutally honest to her and siya rin ganun sa akin,” she added.

Vice explained that their honesty stems from mutual trust and respect. “Hindi ako matatakot na ma-offend ko siya at siya rin hindi siya matatakot na ma-offend niya ako because at the end of the day we will still choose each other and we will still choose to understand each other.”

She also reflected on how deeply they share each other’s emotions. “Ang ganda-ganda ng relationship namin. Umiiyak ako para sa kanya, umiiyak siya para sa akin. Nasasaktan kami para sa isa’t isa,” Vice said.

The Call Me Mother star recalled the challenges of hosting the noontime show It’s Showtime without Anne Curtis. “There was even a point na it was so hard for me to keep doing Showtime without her. Nahihirapan ako, umiiyak ako [sa kanya], ‘Nahihirapan ako ‘pag wala ka. Kailangan kita, kailangan kang bumalik.’ Pinakiusapan ko siya, ‘Samahan mo ako, kailangan kita, kailangan ko ‘yung support mo.’ It was very hard for me to carry Showtime without her,” she said.

Vice added that hosting the show was effortless whenever Anne was present. “With her in the show, it was so easy. It was a walk in the park. It’s playtime,” she explained.
