Dingdong Dantes gets early birthday celebration on ‘Family Feud’

Dingdong Dantes got to celebrate his birthday a day early with a special episode on “Family Feud.”

According to Aubrey Carampel’s report on “24 Oras,” Friday, the episode was joined and played by the Kapuso Primetime King’s friends, including Senator Bam Aquino, Iza Calzado, Angelu De Leon, and Randy Ortiz.

“Itong mga bisita natin, matagal ko na talagang kinukumbinsing sumali kasi siyempre, basta ‘pag birthday episode, I can request for my friends to play,” Dingdong said.

Dingdong also received a birthday surprise on the set of “Amazing Earth,” which is celebrating its anniversary with a three-part special.

He is also actively preparing to host the upcoming season of “The Voice Kids Philippines,” which will be joined by new coaches Zack Tabudlo and Ben&Ben twins Paolo and Miguel Benjamin Guico.

“‘Yung balitaktakan ‘di ba, ‘yung kulitan ng mga coaches kung nakita nila in the past seasons of ‘The Voice,’ ‘yung dynamics, at ‘yung chemistry ng mga coaches natin, ito may bago na naman,” Dingdong said.

He also teased that the show will have an exciting twist.

Earlier, Dingdong received an award from the Office of Civil Defense in recognition of his disaster preparedness initiatives.
