 The Philippine media and show business scene—encompassing film, radio, and television—comprises a vital part of LGBT culture in terms of representation.Prominent celebrities including Vice Ganda and Boy Abunda are all featured in major programs and are often tapped to endorse major products and services.In 2004, the Republic of the Philippines Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB) had disseminated a memorandum calling homosexual relationships—particularly lesbian relationships—an "abnormality of human nature", discouraging producers from broadcast any sort of portrayals that promoted these relationships.
