The announcement comes after the “Huling Tapatan,” or grand finals, of the current season aired on the Kapamilya noontime program It’s Showtime. During the finale, Yannie Paul Basical was declared the newest champion, marking the end of another competitive run that showcased aspiring Filipino singers from different parts of the country.

Amid the online conversations, Vice Ganda addressed the audience’s reactions through a post on X (formerly Twitter), where he shared his honest thoughts about the performances and the show’s direction.

“The initial performances were underwhelming. But when the Top 3 started their medley numbers pakingshit it was a moment of gold!!!! Ang exciting na di mo masabi kung sinong mananalo dahil lahat naappreciate ung husay at puso ng performance nila. #TnT #ItsShowtime,” the comedian-host wrote.

Despite the criticisms, he also expressed gratitude toward viewers who continue to support the program and offered appreciation for constructive feedback that could help improve future seasons.

“I read ur comments during breaks and gets ko mga hanash nyo. Still thank you for always supporting Tawag ng Tanghalan. I appreciate the constructive criticisms. For now ipapahinga muna natin panandalian ang TnT para mas makapaghanda pa ang mga sasali,” he said.

The decision to pause the competition is seen as a move to allow both the production team and future contestants to prepare more thoroughly for upcoming seasons, with hopes of bringing back the excitement that once defined the show.

Vice Ganda, born Jose Marie Borja Viceral, is a phenomenally successful Filipino comedian, actor, television host, and recording artist widely regarded as one of the most influential figures in Philippine entertainment. He is best known as the central host of ABS-CBN's long-running midday variety show It's Showtime and has starred in several of the highest-grossing films in Philippine cinema history, including The Unmarried Wife and the Praybeyt Benjamin series.

In another report, Vic Sotto jokingly introduced what he described as Eat Bulaga’s playful “answer” to Vice Ganda during a live segment. The lighthearted moment began after social media personality Jericho “Baett” suggested a new nickname for Ryzza Mae Dizon. Ryzza Mae then happily embraced the title “Ganda,” which prompted Vic to deliver a punchline that made the studio erupt in laughter. Fans online quickly picked up on the joke, with many playfully calling her “Ryzza Ganda” across social media platforms.
