Hello Pappy scandal
The Hello Pappy scandal was a scandal surrounding an incident during the August 20, 2007 episode of the Filipino variety show Wowowee, broadcast by ABS-CBN. The name of the scandal, coined by Joey de Leon, alludes to the nickname of Wowowee host Willie Revillame, "Pappy", and the Hello Garci scandal. During the episode, a technical error occurred during the final jackpot round of the show's "Wilyonaryo" segment which raised allegations within the media that the segment was rigged by the producers.
