GMA Network hosted a high-powered trade and thanksgiving party entitled 'GMA Valentine Partnership Party' last Feb. 2 to celebrate and strengthen ties with its valued partners in the trade. Spearheaded by GMA Marketing and Productions, Inc., the event is the network's way of expressing their gratitude to the advertisers for their continued and unwavering support to the Kapuso Network.

The evening saw the unveiling of the programs to air on the network. A mix of localized programs, new seasons and more innovative shows was presented before a jampacked A. Venue Events Hall in Makati City.

The audience had the chance to feel the excitement of being contestants in a live game of 'Family Fued' under the spell of charming host Richard Gomez. Several ladies also experienced the thrill of being the feisty Proserfina in a game that created a scene from the pilot episode of 'Ang Babaeng Hinugot sa Aking Tadyang.' Dingdong Dantes had the girls in the audience swooning over him as he played the dreamy Homer.

All eyes were on Carla Abellana when she took the spotlight as she was introduced as the chosen one to play the lead role in the localized version of 'Rosalinda.' The former commercial model is the latest artist to join GMA's stable of dynamic and talented actors and actresses.

Likewise, the biggest and brightest Kapuso stars led by Richard Gutierrez, Dingdong Dantes, Marian Rivera, Regine Velasquez, Robin Padilla, Manny Pacquiao, Richard Gomez, Iza Calzado, Sunshine Dizon, Jean Garcia, Mark Anthony Fernandez, Alfred Vargas, Dennis Trillo, Heart Evangelista, JC de Vera, Rhian Ramos, among others, added star-power to the occasion as they came up on stage to promote their respective shows.

GMA's formidable News and Public Affairs team also came in full force with Mel Tiangco, Jessica Soho, Arnold Clavio, Vicky Morales, Mike Enriquez, and Jiggy Manicad leading the pack.
