Willie already apologized for what he said about the airing side by side of Wowowee with the cortege of Corazon Aquino although he still stands with what he said. He now went on an indefinite leave because of this controversy where Filipinos still continue to share their shock and dismay with the noontime show host through online petitions and through twitter, facebook and text messages.

Indefinite leave may mean 2 days or 3 days off from work which means that Wowowee won’t have Willie to host it because he was asked to go on leave starting August 10. His co-hosts are now taking over and they are doing quite well as always especially Pokwang who doesn’t miss giving us fun antics that brings more life to the noontime show.

Willie Revillame is on a hot seat right now after he voiced out his opinion about the live video streaming of the cortege for Corazon “Cory” Aquino. On his show in Wowowee, he said that it doesn’t seem nice that on his noontime show where everybody’s enjoying then the footage of Aquino’s cortege is also simultaneously being aired. He asked the crew to turn off the video streaming. Here’s exactly what he said on his show in Wowowee.

Hindi siguro magandang tingnan na pinapakita niyo yan. Nagsasaya kami tapos pinapakita niyo yung, I don't think dapat ipakita yan.

Kris Aquino was kind of upset that Korina did not fulfill her promise to her that she would make her announcement about her wedding with the presidentiable Mar Roxas on her show in SNN. Instead, Korina and Mar Roxas went to Wowowee and there they made their announcement.

The host of ABS-CBN’s Wowowee is really making it big. Why not? If you earn P1million a day surely you could afford to build your own theater mall worth 600 million pesos! Willie Revillame is reportedly going to build the Wil Theater Mall with a budget of P600 million! And it will be on his property just across the ABS-CBN’s entrance.
