(SPOT.ph) In a press conference, Kris Aquino announced that she is leaving the late-night showbiz talk show, Aquino and Abunda Tonight.
She explained that her decision was due to health issues; Kris was hospitalized in late August due to a "severe vascular headache" that caused her blood pressure to rise. She said that September 21 will be her last week on the show, and added, "I cannot shoot a movie and do two daily shows."
Her co-host, Boy Abunda, will reportedly take over the show, but he and ABS-CBN have yet to make a formal announcement on the change.
Boy's other show, The Buzz "temporarily" went off-air in April. GMA 7's Startalk (where Boy was one of the original hosts) also went off-air on September 12 as they celebrated their 20th anniversary.
The question now is: What's the new title for the show? Somehow, Boy Abunda Tonight just doesn't sound as catchy.
