Personal life

Vice Ganda is non-binary and does not mind being addressed with either masculine or feminine pronouns. He has advocated for queer rights and representation throughout his career. One of his biggest life inspirations is his teacher who told him to "always follow his dreams no matter how big or wild they are." Since November 2018, he has been in a relationship with Ion Perez, a member of the supporting cast on It's Showtime. On his YouTube vlog uploaded on February 13, 2022, he revealed that he and Perez underwent a commitment ceremony on October 19, 2021, at The Little Vegas Chapel in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Politics Vice Ganda endorsed Davao City mayor Rodrigo Duterte for president, during the 2016 Philippine presidential election, and had him on as a guest for Gandang Gabi, Vice!, his late-night television show. For the 2022 Philippine presidential election, he endorsed Vice President Leni Robredo for president. At Robredo's miting de avance (final rally before election day), he also endorsed her running mate Senator Kiko Pangilinan for vice president.

Philanthropy In 2013, Vice Ganda auctioned off some of his clothing and performed for a fundraising comedy show and donated all proceeds to ABS-CBN's Sagip Kapamilya (Save a Family) relief operations for those affected by Super Typhoon Yolanda, one of the deadliest and most powerful tropical cyclones ever recorded. He also joined a charity basketball game organized by fellow celebrities and PBA players held at Ynares Sports Arena in Pasig City to raise funds for families affected particularly in the Visayas region.

In 2020, during the peak of COVID-19 pandemic in the Philippines, Vice Ganda donated face masks, disposable gloves, safety goggles, alcohol, and disinfectant spray for use by health workers in various hospitals in the Philippines. Apart from his extensive donation campaign for medical frontliners, Vice Ganda also provided financial assistance to more than 400 employees of his cosmetics company.

Vice was among the performers that appeared in "Pantawid ng Pag-ibig: At Home Together Concert". He launched his single "Corona Bye-Bye Na" during the live telecast.

In November 2020, Vice Ganda together with boyfriend Ion Perez, sibling Babot Viceral, actor-dancer Jhong Hilario and fiancé Maia Azores, began a donation drive which allocated more than million to help purchase donations for people affected by Typhoon Vamco, known locally as Ulysses.

In the August 2021 episode of his show, Everybody Sing! wherein the contestants are mountaineers and hikers, Vice added donation to the Bourne to Hike Mountaineers' beneficiaries- the Aeta communities in Bicol region. In November 2021, he donated his a day-worth of talent fee to ABS-CBN Foundation for the benefits of the victims of Typhoon Odette in Cebu and Siargao. Ganda announced this during It's Showtime live telecast influencing his fellow hosts to donate their talent fees as well.

In November 2021, during the annual "Magpasikat" competition of It's Showtime hosts against each other. The said foundation caters to COVID and Non COVID cases and help them with medical care. In March 2022, in a vlog uploaded in his YouTube account, Vice extended help to random strangers by paying for the medicines they bought in a pharmacy opposite AFP Medical Center in Quezon City. According to him, finding the money to buy medicine is a big headache for a lot of people so he paid for the expenses of all customers throughout the day.

In April 2024, Vice Ganda and fellow It's Showtime hosts donated their winnings from Family Feud to PISTON, a federation of public transport drivers' and operators' associations. This donation came at a time when the drivers were protesting the government's planned jeepney phaseout. In a separate study by the Centro Escolar University and Western Mindanao State University about the pragmatics of Filipino humor, Vice Ganda's popularity in various entertainment mediums like television and the internet, as well as his use of irony and conversational witticisms greatly influenced the popular comedic strategies used by Filipinos in their day-to-day conversations, sometimes even to the point of being disrespectful towards the elderly among Vice Ganda's younger audience.

LGBT rights The popularity of Vice Ganda, an openly gay individual, in the Philippines, a predominantly Roman Catholic nation, is seen by observers as vital in kickstarting discussions of LGBT people to the mainstream media. He himself is an advocate to the local LGBT movement in the country, and is one of the prominent personalities that seeks equal opportunities to the LGBT members in the Philippines. He supports the SOGIE Equality Bill, a series of bills that was introduced to the Philippine Congress starting from the 2010s that aims to enact protections against discrimination towards LGBT people. In a live episode of It's Showtime in 2018, where he is one of the hosts, Vice Ganda expressed his opinions about the bill, saying that he faces discrimination in using comfort rooms of either gender, that the bill should be passed as soon as possible.

In 2018 and again in 2020, he became the cover image for the magazine Mega, becoming the first LGBT member to do so in the history of the magazine.

Controversies Gang rape jokes against Jessica Soho. In May 2013, Vice Ganda was widely criticized for making several jokes about gang rape during his I-Vice Ganda Mo Ko! comedy concert show. One of them was directed towards the news anchor and journalist Jessica Soho, whom he mentioned in a joke regarding several personalities starring in a hypothetical pornographic film. Women's rights group GABRIELA condemned the joke as being distasteful in light of rape victims. Journalist Arnold Clavio, a colleague of Soho, defended the news anchor and expressed his disapproval of Vice Ganda's body-shaming remark in one of the former's radio programs. Although Vice Ganda initially defended his stance, saying that the brand of humor he uses is based on his roots doing stand-up in comedy bars and karaoke lounges, he nevertheless issued an apology over the issue during an episode of the noontime show It's Showtime. Nora Aunor. Actress Nora Aunor became a target of Vice Ganda's style of humor during an episode of It's Showtime. Aunor pulled out as judge for the grand finals of the show's segment Tawag ng Tanghalan at the last minute. Aunor believed Vice Ganda's brand of insult comedy was against her moral beliefs, and was perturbed with the idea of being on the show alongside Vice Ganda. Apollo Quiboloy. On one of his daily comedic discussions following a performance by Gian Magdangal on Tawag ng Tanghalan: Celebrity Champions, Vice Ganda made a joke after the founder of Kingdom of Jesus Christ, Apollo Quiboloy, among other claims of being responsible for stopping calamities, claimed that he was responsible for stopping the 2019 Cotabato earthquakes. Vice Ganda jokingly challenged Quiboloy to stop the airing of It's Showtime, which is one of the longest-running ABS-CBN television programs alongside Ang Probinsyano, and the constant traffic on EDSA, a major road network in Metro Manila. Members of Quiboloy's church took offense and expressed their dismay for Vice Ganda. Radio broadcaster and SMNI anchor, Mike Abe, a friend of Quiboloy, defended the founder and criticized Vice heavily in his program. Two days after the joke, Quiboloy instead threatened that he will not only stop Ang Probinsyano, but also to shutdown ABS-CBN as a whole within four months. The network went off-air in 2020 in a controversial refusal to renew the network's franchise by the legislature, an act that was seen by Quiboloy and his followers as the fulfillment of his previous remarks against the comedian. Cake-icing Finger. During the "Isip-bata" segment on It's Showtime, Ion Perez and Vice Ganda faced criticism from social media influencer Rendon Labador for actions perceived as inappropriate. Labador challenged the MTRCB for the alleged misconduct of Ion and Vice, leading to the subsequent suspension of the show for two weeks by MTRCB chairperson Lala Sotto. Accusation of malice. On May 31, 2024, during the "EXpecially For You" segment of It's Showtime, participants Axel and Christine greeted each other as the former approached the latter. However, Vice Ganda perceived the greeting as an unwanted kiss (nagnanakaw ng halik), calling out Axel immediately after the greeting. After participating in the segment, Axel and Christine each released their statement on the matter, with both saying that the greeting was similar to a pound hug. Vice Ganda, in a now-deleted post on X (formerly Twitter), intended to apologize to Axel after the statements were released. However, on June 4, 2024, he retracted his apology, stating, "Bilang main host po nung segment na yon, it was my duty to call that action out. Dahil kung hindi ko rin ginawa yon, ako rin ang maku-call out, bakit namin hinahayaan. (As the main host of that segment, it was my duty to call that action out. Because if I didn't, I would get called out and asked why we let it happen.)" Jetski Holiday. In August 2025, during the first night of the Superdivas concert with Regine Velasquez at the Smart Araneta Coliseum, Vice Ganda parodied the viral Jet2holidays meme with "nothing beats a jet ski holiday", referencing former president Rodrigo Duterte's 2016 campaign pledge to ride a jet ski to the Spratly Islands to assert Philippine sovereignty in the South China Sea. The portrayal was also followed by references to the China Coast Guard's use of water cannons and Duterte's incarceration at the International Criminal Court in The Hague. Vice Ganda also used language associated with Duterte's own public remarks and singled out Duterte's supporters in his skit. Clips of the performance circulated widely on social media, drawing praise from Duterte critics and condemnation from his supporters. As a result, some Duterte supporters have also called for a boycott of brands endorsed by Vice Ganda, such as McDonald's. Racism allegations. During the "Memerimar" skit in the segment Laro Laro Pick on It's Showtime on July 24, 2026, Vice Ganda spat water on the face of Baby Dolls member Johaira and said "Anong nangyari sa ’yo? Bakit nagputik ka?" or "What happened to you? Why are you covered in mud?". Since Johaira has dark complexion and Vice Ganda compared it to mud, it gained backlash among social media users, with many arguing that it shows racism. He later apologized the following day, saying that the hosts would be more mindful of their jokes next time.
