In line with the 2 decades of ASAP being the number 1 Sunday afternoon variety show on Philippine TV that defeated several noontime shows from the rival networks including SOP, Party Pilipinas and P.O.5, the show became the home of the most talented showbiz superstars that aside from performing in the stage every Sunday they also made names in their respective careers such as singing, dancing, acting and even hosting.

 

As ASAP celebrates 20 years with the new title ASAP 20 for this year, let’s go back to the memory lane as we remember 20 superstars whose successful careers started in “ASAP.”
