MANILA, Philippines – Vice Ganda, comedian and popular TV show host, is getting some downtime as he has been confined in hospital on account of a fever and stomach issues.

“Thursday pa lang GGV (Gandang Gabi Vice taping) not feeling well na siya. Friday hindi siya nakapag-Showtime pero pinilit niyang makapag-shooting ng Praybeyt Benjamin. Saturday nagsho-shooting and he was telling me na ‘Hindi okay. Mayroon akong hindi magandang pakiramdam,’ (Thursday, GGV (taping), he was already not feeling well. Friday, he was not in Showtime but he tried to finishing shooting for Praybeyt Benjamin. Saturday, he was shooting and he was telling me ‘I am not okay. I do not feel well.’),” Kris said.

Meanwhile, Vhong Navarro and Anne Curtis, co-hosts of Vice on It’s Showtime, encouraged the audience to pray for the comedian.

On the Tuesday episode of the noontime variety show, Navarro said: “Ipagdasal natin si Vice kasi baka lang – baka lang – sa kidney niya may cyst na nakita eh. Basta ipagdasal lang natin si Vice, (Let us pray for Vice, because there might – just might – have been a cyst spotted in the kidney. Let us just pray for him.)”

“Kaya nga undergoing siya ng tests kaninang umaga. So let’s keep him in our prayers. “Kanina may ginagawa pang something sa throat niya. (That is why he went through tests this morning. They also did some procedures on his throat.) Get well soon, sis.” Anne said.

Vice’s family said that they are waiting on lab results and the diagnosis of the doctors.
