A Fantastic Kapuso event
GMA Network’s recent celebration of its 56th anniversary via a successful day-long event dubbed as Fantastic 56: The GMA Anniversary Special at the World Trade Center proved to be a memorable affair not just for the thousands of fans who flocked to the venue to see their favorite Kapuso stars up close but also to the millions of viewers who were treated to a special lineup of special presentations, musical extravaganza, and fantastic prizes.
With the World Trade Center gates opening as early as 8 a.m., fans were greeted with several concept booths at the lobby. Costumes used in their favorite GMA telefantasyas were displayed and were available for picture taking. Medical services were also offered in the booth of the Kapuso Foundation as well as other services in the other program booths, manned by no less than the Kapuso stars themselves.
A special tribute was also given to the pillars of GMA, with a medley of poignant songs performed by Lani Mercado, Jackie Lou Blanco and Jean Garcia to the Master Showman German Moreno; Dennis Trillo to award-winning veteran actor Eddie Garcia; Keempee De Leon to his father, veteran host-comedian Joey De Leon; and Wency Cornejo to his mother, award-winning broadcast journalist and host Mel Tiangco.
