Acclaimed singer-songwriter Ogie Alcasid has joined “Tawag ng Tanghalan” on “It’s Showtime” and was officially introduced as one of its ‘hurados’ or judges in the most talked about competition in noontime Saturday (Dec 10). 

 Like the other hurados, he will evaluate the performances of hopefuls from contestants from Luzon, Visayas, Mindanao, and Metro Manila. In his first appearance in the competition, Ogie made the audience laugh with his light jokes as he was giving his commentary as a ‘hurado.’ Last night (Dec 11) at the “Pinoy Boyband Superstar: The Grand Reveal,” Ogie was also named one of the judges of “Your Face Sounds Familiar: Kids,” which premieres in 2017. “Tawag ng Tanghalan” is currently in its Last Quarter with Hazelyn Cascano of Metro Manila, Jeramie Sanico of Mindanao, and Sam Mangubat and Froilan Canlas of Luzon as its semi-finalists. Don’t miss the talented Pinoy singers as they battle for supremacy in “Tawag ng Tanghalan” in the noontime variety show “It’s Showtime,” Mondays to Saturdays in ABS-CBN or ABS-CBN HD (SkyCable ch 167).
