In the recent years, we have witnessed the influx of local celebrities who went on to become content creators as they decided to put up their respective YouTube channels to further reach out and become closer to their fans.
While social media has allowed them to share a portion of their lives through the photos and clips that they post, the video blogs they upload have given them the freedom to showcase who they really are and how their lives are in real life every time they’re off the stage or not in front of the camera.
But aside from providing great fan service, creating vlogs has also been some celebrities’ way of bonding with their families, especially during this pandemic that going out is highly discouraged. And in this episode of Kapamilya Snaps, let’s meet the eight Kapamilya celebrities-turned-YouTubers who apparently enjoy creating contents with their siblings!
Ivana Alawi
With over 13.1 million subscribers on her channel, there’s no doubt that Ivana is among the biggest creators in the video-sharing platform at present. Being one of the hottest stars in the local entertainment scene, everyone apparently wants to know more about her and see her, now that she decided to not accept any projects as her way of protecting her family from COVID-19.
And it seems that she and her team have never run out of ideas and things to do as they consistently release videos every week that never failed to rake in thousands and millions of views. Making her vlogs extra fun are their beloved mom Fatima Alawi and her two siblings Hash and Mona who enthusiastically joins her in the challenges, pranks, and shenanigans that she does.
Enrique Gil
As he and reel-to-real sweetheart Liza Soberano take their well-deserved rest from doing series and films, both Dolce Amore stars put up their respective channels that enables them to get in touch with their adoring fans.
In his channel, Enrique and his sister Andie started their own YouTube series called “The Gil Side”, through which they amuse the audiences with fun games and challenges and even take us to their family getaways and squad hangouts. Their Mommy Bambi and his girlfriend Liza joins them occasionally as guests.
Andrea Brillantes
As she delights us with her dramatic performances in the teleseryes she starred in, the Huwag Kang Mangamba lead actress is able to unleash her makulit and carefree facet through the vlogs in her channel that has now more than 3.17 million subscribers.
And in some of her uploads, Andrea gets to tag her whole family in doing some fun challenges – from their grandma and their Mama Belle, up to her older siblings Nina, Kismet, and Kayla. But most of the time, it’s her Ate Kayla who gamely joins her, as well as in a sanitary pad commercial!
Kim Chiu
Just like Andrea, the It’s Showtime host also often features her beloved family in her channel, which now has more than 2.29 million subscribers. Even though all of them are not in the industry, her siblings Lakam, William, Twinkle, and JP, as well as her nephews and nieces were not shy to appear on her vlogs and show their love and support for their superstar sister.
Each time Kim tackles family celebrations, trips, or simple bonding activities, we can surely spot them on those vlogs!
Enchong Dee
Whenever he’s not Fr. Seb in Huwag Kang Mangamba nor one of the performers in ASAP Natin ‘To, Enchong keeps himself busy by creating content for his channel, which has now raked in more than 566 thousand subscribers.
While he usually does his vlogs alone or with his showbiz friends, we finally got the chance to meet his other siblings aside from his actor-model brother AJ – Angelica and Ice. Those who have been ardently watching his uploads could recall that he once tried to make frozen yogurt with Angelica, while Ice gave him a haircut in one of his latest videos.
Kyle Echarri
As he plays the role of Rafa, the rebellious yet kindhearted youngest scion of the Advincula clan in Huwag Kang Mangamba, Kyle could actually be the sweetest kuya you’ll ever know. Like his co-star Enchong, he usually does his vlog with his showbiz friends, but has also featured his little sister Bella in a number of his YouTube videos.
After pranking her in one of his videos by filling her room with his pictures, the loving big brother made sure to compensate to it by surprising her with a new iPad Pro!
Donny Pangilinan
He may be a bully in He’s Into Her, but when it comes to his family and friends, Donny’s such a sweetheart. And we’re able to prove how much he loves and how strongly bonded he is to his family in some of the vlogs he shot with his siblings Ella, Hannah, Benj, and Sola.
Among the adorable videos he did with them were the “The Sibling Challenge”, the “WHO’S MOST LIKELY TO?” Challenge that also involved their parents Anthony and Maricel, and “DATE WITH MY LIL SISTER” that presented their beloved bunso Sola.
Toni and Alex Gonzaga
As both of them have found successes as actresses, hosts, and recording artists, the Gonzaga sisters have also been faring impressively as YouTubers. As we all know, it was Alex who first put up her channel in 2017, which now has more than 10.5 million subscribers. It mostly showcased her comedic side, her hilarious mischiefs, and her admirable bond with her Mommy Pinty, Daddy Bonoy, and Ate Toni, as well as with her friends in-and-out of showbiz.
Meanwhile, Toni established hers in 2019, which initially gave a glimpse to her life as a wife and a mom. However, her avid viewers are arguably delighted to see her turn her channel into an online talk show this year, wherein she’s able to further inspire and enlighten us with her insightful interviews with different personalities every week.
