The Gabriela Women’s Party has asked the Movie and Television Review and Classification Board to investigate the ABS-CBN noontime program “It’s Showtime” for “exploitation of women”.
In similar letters sent last week to the show’s executive producer, Mark Rejano, and MTRCB chairman Atty. Toto Villareal, Gabriela secretary general Joan May Salvador said her organization had received many complaints from concerned citizens “alleging that the show seems to be pimping… Pastillas Girl to various interested men”.
Pastillas Girl is the moniker of Angelica Jane Yap, “It’s Showtime’s” answer to Maine Mendoza, the Dubsmash sensation better known as Yaya Dub on “Eat Bulaga”. Yap earned her ticket to instant fame with a viral video in which she recites a purported recipe for making pastillas (soft milk candy) that segues into a rant against an unfaithful ex-boyfriend.
Faced with the phenomenal success of Yaya Dub’s love team with Alden Richards, “It’s Showtime” created a dating segment for Pastillas Girl in which she goes searching for a potential mate (Pastillas Boy) among a number of male suitors.
“As an organization dealing with the protection and advancement of women’s right, we cannot dismiss such complaints,” Salvador said in her letters. “We have been consistent in our statement that competition to sell the show and the ratings war should not be done at the expense of women.”
At posting time, both the MTRCB and “It’s Showtime” had yet to respond to Gabriela’s complaint.
