Joey de Leon tells Toni: I'm not mad at you

Joey de Leon made it clear that he is not mad at former "Eat Bulaga" co-host Toni Gonzaga, who left the noontime show several years ago to transfer to ABS-CBN.

Gonzaga, one of the hosts of "The Buzz," turned emotional when de Leon gave her a bag containing an "Eat Bulaga" coffee table book.

The said book featured an old photo of Gonzaga with the hosts of the show.

"Dati galit ka sa akin eh. Ngayon di ka na galit sa akin," she told de Leon, who guested for the first time on "The Buzz" on Sunday.

De Leon replied, "Hindi, ano ka ba. Di lang tayo nagkaintindihan. Hindi ako nagagalit sa'yo noon. Binibiro lang kita."

"O tignan mo naman, nung umalis ka umasenso ka," he added, drawing laughter from the audience. "Kung di ka lumayas sa 'Bulaga' edi baka sa EB Babes ka na."

The veteran comedian admitted, though, that they were sad when Gonzaga left the show.

"Siyempre nalungkot kami nung nawala ka. Pero ngayon, napapanood pa rin naman kita eh," he said.

Gonzaga is currently part of "Happy Yipee Yehey," ABS-CBN's noontime variety show.

She said she is thankful for having the opportunity to learn from de Leon, who is considered one of the country's top hosts.

"Mabibilang ko ang sarili ko sa isa sa mga pinakamaswerte sa henerasyon na ito na nakatrabaho ang isang Joey de Leon," she said.

Favorites

De Leon admitted that Gonzaga is currently his favorite personality on television.

This puts Gonzaga alongside Popstar Princess Sarah Geronimo, who is de Leon' favorite movie actress.

"Kayo ni Sarah, parang kayong dalawa favorite ko eh. Ikaw sa TV, siya sa pelikula," he said.

De Leon is part of Geronimo's upcoming film, "Won't Last A Day Without You."

It will hit theaters nationwide on November 30.

Hosting tips

De Leon also took the opportunity to give tips to both aspiring and current television hosts.

"Baka may mga nakikinig diyan. 'Pag nagho-host kayo, makinig kayo sa co-host niyo," he said.

"'Yung iba kasi solo lang, sarili lang [ang] iniintindi. Maganda ba ako sa TV, anong anggulo. Kailangan makikinig ka kasi mawawala ka sa takbo ng usapan," he added.

Asked if he does this to co-hosts Tito and Vic Sotto, de Leon said, "Iba na kami. Tinginan lang. Di na kailangan mag-usap."

"Close ako sa show. 'Yan ang wag kang aasa [sa co-hosts]. Kahit absent ang lahat ng co-host, dapat kaya mo mag-isa."

The veteran comedian then poked fun at Gonzaga's co-host on "Happy Yipee Yehey," singer Rico J. Puno.

"Alam mo kung bakit ako naiiyak [sa pag-iwan mo sa amin]? Biruin mo, kasama mo Tito Vic and Joey. Tapos kasama mo ngayon si Rico Puno? Nasaan ang kahihiyan mo?" he said.

He quickly added, "Hindi, joke lang 'yun. Pareng Rico, hindi, hindi. Mabait 'yun."
