Award-winning actress and comedian Eugene Domingo revealed that it was Kapamilya actress Kathryn Bernardo who suggested her to management to become one of the judges of the upcoming season of Pilipinas Got Talent (PGT). This revelation was made during the media conference for the highly awaited comeback of the hit reality talent show last March 19.

The two will be joined by Donny Pangilinan and Freddie “FMG” Garcia as judges for the seventh season of PGT.

“Gusto ko lang ishare sa inyo na I’m not here kung hindi sinuggest ni Kathryn na isama ako. So, I think that’s worth noting. Please note that,” Eugene revealed.

She added how she’s been looking for a new show to join and when the opportunity to become a judge for PGT was handed to her, the star didn’t hesitate to say yes.

“Because for a while, I’ve been thinking ano kayang show ang gagawin ko next? Ano next project ko? My god, this show landed on my lap and I just said I think this is the best show. I mean, this is the most entertaining show,” she added.

Kathryn, on the other hand, expressed how assuring it was to have Eugene judge beside her. It will be the first time for the two to judge in the prestigious talent competition.

“Iba rin yung kampante ko pag nadiyan si Ms. Eugene kasi syempre first time ko dito so everytime nandiyan, iba rin yung kaba. Doon ko rin narealize na sobrang hirap mag judge.” Kathryn said.

“Yung simple lang na pag tingin ko sa kaliwa ko si Ms Eugene, iba yung pag may fellow babae na nakikita… Iba siguro yung energy din na nabibigay natin mga babae. Thank you also for guiding me,” she added.

Meanwhile, Eugene assured that the best is yet to come in the upcoming comeback season of PGT. She teased viewers to watch out for more surprises and the amazing talent of the Filipino people.

“If the Filipinos have given up on TV, don’t. The best is yet to come. PGT is the best show if not Sir Freddie won’t be here. I mean this is everything–– this is entertainment, this is talent, and this is Filipino–– what more can you ask for?” she teased.

The seventh season of Pilipinas Got Talent is set to return starting this March 29 and 30.
