ABS-CBN, the country’s leading content provider, won ten awards, including the Digital Media Network of the Year award, at the 2024 Platinum Stallion National Media Awards given by the Trinity University of Asia on February 15 (Thursday).
Aside from this prestigious award, several Kapamilya artists, shows, and film were also recognized by the students and educators from the Trinitian community.
“Senior High” actors Elijah Canlas and Miggy Jimenez bagged the Best Primetime Drama Actor and Best Primetime Supporting Actor awards, respectively, while Jennica Garcia won as the Best Primetime Supporting Actress for the hit Kapamilya series “Dirty Linen.”
Meanwhile, three ABS-CBN shows were also recognized during the ceremony, such as “FPJ’s Batang Quiapo” (Socially Relevant TV Series), “It’s Showtime” (Best Variety Show) and “Magandang Buhay” (Celebrity Talk Show of the Year).
The awardees thanked the late Dreamscape head Deo Endrinal during their acceptance speeches.
“Noong lumabas ang cast trailer namin sa Dirty Linen, lahat ng kasama ko roon award winning actors and actresses. Ang sabi ko pa po kay Christian Bables noon “Parang nahihiya ako kasi ako yung walang award, hindi ata ako bagay rito tapos ang sabi niya po sa akin maniwala lang daw po ako kay Sir Deo. Sir Deo, hindi ko man po kayo kasama na ngayon dito sa lupa bilang boss ko, sana maging anghel po namin kayo dyan sa langit,” Jennica shared.
“Kasabay ng selebrasyon ng aming first year anniversary, ibinibigay namin ang aming taos pusong pasasalamat sa pagtangkilik at suporta niyo sa palabas namin. Also, I would like to dedicate this award sa yumao naming boss na si Mr. Deo Endrinal, sobra ang pagpapasalamat namin sa kanya,” said Cherry Pie Picache, who received the award for “FPJ’s Batang Quiapo.”
Star Cinema’s “Rewind,” the highest-grossing Filipino film of all time, also won as the Best Drama Movie of the Year, while its lead actress Marian Rivera received the Best Film Actress award.
Additionally, Jan Erik Miras from Star Magic also received the Trinitian Media Practitioner for Entertainment Media award.
The Platinum Stallion National Media Awards recognizes individuals and groups of their continuing effort in educating the public through the media and the allied arts. The winners are chosen by the school’s students, alumni, faculty, staff, and stakeholders.
