iflix, the world’s leading Internet TV service for emerging markets has dropped a bombshell as they welcome the popular and iconic Philippine TV host and actress, Kris Aquino as its latest brand ambassador. Known as the “Queen of All Media”, Kris' achievements in the entertainment industry throughout her three-decade career needs no introduction. From her ability to draw out deeply personal stories from guests on her various talk shows and lifestyle shows or gamely play with audiences and contestants as the hosts for local game shows on primetime TV or a talented actress on film, Kris has been a versatile talent - making her one of the most well-known faces in the Philippine entertainment industry to date.



Leveraging off her deep industry expertise, Kris will further serve as a key advisor for iflix. She will play a key role in jointly developing projects for iflix Original Productions, as the company continues to commission and develop exciting, compelling local original content projects both independently and in collaboration with local producers and studios. To date, iflix has commissioned "Hoy! Bibig Mo", an edgy, no-holds-barred stand-up comedy series hosted by Ramon Bautista.
“Having essentially grown up on television, I have watched audience viewing habits change dramatically over recent years,” Kris said. “This is the age of Digital! New digital formats have allowed me to exchange genuine, personal conversations with my audiences through social affirmation and online recognition - hugely powerful tools for developing customer intimacy. iflix is the clear choice when it comes to video on demand and innovation, and I look forward to our partnership as we engage the next generation of Filipino viewers.”
