The incident was captured in a video clip shared on the program’s official Facebook page and later reshared on Reddit. In the footage, Revillame appeared frustrated as he addressed his staff regarding the selection of winners. He was heard telling a staff member named Bing that he wanted a change in the gender of the winners being presented.

“Bigyan nyo ako ng babae. Bing, ayoko ng puro lalaki. Lalaki na yung nanalo kahapon eh,” he said, his voice laced with obvious irritation. The clip quickly gained traction, with many netizens expressing their disappointment but also a lack of surprise, given the host’s history of on-air outbursts.

Willie Revillame has built a decades-long career on being the "champion of the poor," known for giving away massive prizes, houses, and cars on shows like Wowowin and Wil To Win. However, his path has often been riddled with controversy. Critics have frequently pointed out his tendency to scold his production crew during live broadcasts, a habit that some viewers find unprofessional.
