Happy who? Duh. If you don’t know who Happy Slip is, you’ve probably never been on YouTube.

I am sooooo thrilled that she’s here and I wish I could get to meet her personally…

Back in December 2006, I had written an article on Christine Gambito of Happy Slip fame. Even back then, I was already such a HUGE fan and when I discovered her videos on YouTube, grabe, naloka ako sa kakatawa! My all time favorites are her “Mixed Nuts” and the hilarious “Boypren” videos. I wrote her and asked if I could interview her for Global Pinoy in the Philippine Daily Inquirer and she agreed! In several subsequent email exchanges, I had told her that I wished she would be able to come one day and visit the Philippines to do shows. And now she is here as an ambassador for the Department of Tourism! A really perfect choice if you ask me.
