Eleven ace celebrities remain Kapamilyas after renewing their respective contracts with ABS-CBN recently.

The line-up of Kapamilya stars was led by actress, TV host, and the Ultimate Multimedia Star Toni Gonzaga who will continue hosting the recently launched program “Pinoy Big Brother Otso.” Elated that she will still be a Kapamilya for the next two years, Toni shared, “I feel so at home. I’m very grateful for the opportunity to still be working with ABS-CBN and, of course, to be with my sister, parang bonus lahat.” Her sister Alex Gonzaga also renewed a two-year contract with ABS-CBN and is also hosting PBB.

Along with the Gonzaga sisters, Chinita Princess Kim Chiu is also hosting PBB Otso and is also looking forward for an upcoming teleserye and a movie set next year. Kim feels nothing short of ecstatic after signing her two-year contract with the Kapamilya network. “It feels really good to renew your contract and sabihan ka ng mga bago mong projects. Nakaka-inspire magtrabaho at patuloy na magbigay saya sa mga tao.”

Singer, dancer, songwriter, actor and TV host Billy Crawford, on the other hand, will continuously host for the Sunday noontime variety show “ASAP.” Fans can also look forward to seeing him in the upcoming Kapamilya programs such as “World of Dance,” “Philippine Idol,” and “Pilipinas Got Talent.” Billy shared that being a Kapamilya, for him, is an honor. “It’s always a blessing when your family still wants you. It’s an amazing feeling to be part of ABS-CBN.”
