FAMAS Awards 2018 Complete List of Nominees, Vice Ganda to Receive Dolphy King of Comedy Award

Wazzup Pilipinas!

"Mary Liza Diño Seguerra (also known as Liza Diño) won her first Filipino Academy of Movie Arts and Sciences Awards (FAMAS) award last December 26, 2017 for her performance in "Ringgo: The Dog Shooter." And Liza Diño took to Instagram to explain why her win meant so much to her. Sharing a photo with her partner, Ice (Aiza) Seguerra, she noted that both of them now have FAMAS acting nods to their name."

Aiza Seguerra's very first award was from FAMAS for Best Child Star Best Child Actress for Aso't Pusa back in 1990.

But that is not the reason why FAMAS and the Film Development Council of the Philippines (FDCP) headed by Liza Diño are now partnering for the latest run of the FAMAS Awards. For her, FAMAS  deserves their support, not only because the award-giving body has been the very first of its kind recognizing those whop excel in the showbiz industry but also of its prestige, regardless of its ups and downs, FAMAS is still FAMAS.

With a new addition to its many awards, named as the Dolphy King of Comedy award, they revealed that the winner is Vice Ganda. You'll get more information form the video coverage we took from the press launch held on May 3, 2018 at Victorino's Restaurant in Quezon City.

A victory party for all nominees will be held on May 19 since they consider even the nominees as winners already.
