The seating arrangement of “It’s Showtime” hosts sparked online discussions on Saturday, October 26, as fans and netizens took to X to share thoughts on the placement of long-time host Karylle during the show’s 15th anniversary celebration.
Karylle, a staple on the show, was seated on one side alongside co-hosts Jackie Gonzaga and Cianne Dominguez, while Vice Ganda and Anne Curtis were flanked by Kim Chiu in the center. This placement prompted reactions from fans who felt that Karylle, given her long tenure on the show, deserved a more prominent position.
pwedeng commercial saglit tapos pagpalitin niyo lang ng upuan si Karylle at Kim!!

Many online users echoed this sentiment. One user remarked, “Could they swap Karylle and Kim’s seats just for this moment?” reflecting a common view that Karylle should be highlighted more.
However, others defended the current setup, arguing that billing isn’t solely about seniority. “Billing is based on fan draw, not just years on the show,” commented a netizen. Another fan added, “Let’s just appreciate them being there, making us happy. No need to overthink the seating.”
Truee di ko naman hate si Kim pero wala akong paki kung mas marami syang fans mas deserve ni Karylle dahil siya ang nauna at og host ng Showtime kaysa kay Kim
