Controversies

The former has made several controversial remarks about celebrities.

Solis was involved in the 1994 Manila Film Scandal, wherein co-hosts Rocky Gutierrez and Miss Universe Mauritius Viveka Babajee announced the names of Solis’ then-talent Gabby Concepcion and beauty queen Ruffa Gutierrez as Best Actor and Actress, instead of Edu Manzano and Aiko Melendez, who are the actual winners.[2] Another co-host, Gretchen Barretto, later revealed the scam, and accused Solis and Annabelle Rama as masterminds behind it.[3] Solis and six others were charged. Solis ultimately pleaded guilty to the offense of orchestrating the scam.[4]
