• Ice Seguerra makes a grand full-circle return to the iconic afternoon variety show, transitioning from an early child star to a core crew member

A legendary local talent has officially come full circle, stepping back into the very studio that launched a historic entertainment career decades ago, but this time taking control from behind the scenes.

Multi-talented artist Ice has officially joined the production crew of the country's longest-running afternoon variety show, "Eat Bulaga," debuting earlier this week as one of its newest directors.

This major milestone marks a poignant homecoming for Ice, who first captured the hearts of the nation as a three-year-old beauty pageant contestant on the exact same program in 1987.

According to a comprehensive media report published by Philstar.com, this new administrative role bridges a magnificent creative gap, transforming a former decade-long child co-host and movie actor into a primary decision-maker in the technical control booth.

The transition from center stage to the director's chair brought a wave of raw emotion, intense nervousness, and sleepless nights for the veteran performer. While Ice is widely recognized for directing major live musical countdowns and intimate acoustic concerts through Fire and Ice Entertainment—a production company co-founded with wife Liza—navigating a massive afternoon television broadcast presented an entirely different set of creative hurdles.

Ice candidly bared these professional vulnerabilities on social media, writing, "It’s my first day on the job!!! I had trouble sleeping the past few days dahil sa kakaisip. While I’m used to directing concerts, live TV is a totally different animal. I have more to learn but I think today was a good day."

The momentous first day on the job was deeply spiritual, serving as a direct realization of a dream harbored by the artist's late mother, Caridad.

In separate, emotionally charged online posts, Ice expressed a profound sense of maternal connection, acknowledging that this technical milestone was something heavily visualized by family matriarchs years prior.

"Balik kung saan nagsimula. But this time, as director of my home — Eat Bulaga. Waaah!! Grabe 'yung kaba ko," Ice shared online while reflecting on this deep personal victory. "Mama naalala ko, ikaw talaga nagmanifest nito dati. I hope I make you proud today."

The smooth broadcast integration was made possible by the unwavering support of seasoned television executives and technical peers who welcomed the former child prodigy with open arms.

Ice explicitly extended heartfelt gratitude to TVJ Productions’ chief operating officer Jeny Ferre, veteran show director Poochie Rivera, and camera technical director Paul Gozon for ensuring a collaborative workflow in the control room.

Turning attention back to family roots, Ice concluded the public reflection with a final, touching tribute to a mother's enduring legacy.

"Ilang beses kang nag manifest noong nabubuhay ka pa. Eto na, mama! Nagkatotoo na! Labyu, Eat Bulaga!!!"

Ice Seguerra is a Filipino singer and actor who first gained public attention through the Eat Bulaga! segment “Little Miss Philippines,” where his talent and charm stood out. That early exposure opened doors in both music and acting, allowing him to build a strong and enduring career in the entertainment industry. Over the years, Ice has become a well-loved figure not only for his performances but also for his advocacy work, consistently showing his versatility as an artist while staying closely connected with his fans and community.
