Throughout the week, “It’s Showtime” kept inching closer to narrow the gap against its rival show “Eat Bulaga.”The viewing performance of “It’s Showtime” improved tremendously owing its better ratings to the relentless search for love of social media sensation Angelica Jane Yap, more popularly known as “Pastillas Girl” and proving to be the lucky charm for the noontime show.
