Modelling and hosting

Agoncillo started as a model at the age of 15, beginning as one of the early Penshoppe's Club Pen models. He has appeared in various television commercials for a variety of products such as Greenwich Pizza (together with Donita Rose), Sprite, Smart Communications, Emperador Brandy, Rexona, Swish mouthwash, and McDonald's.

Agoncillo became one of the original hosts of Mornings @ GMA, an early morning variety program of GMA Network. He also hosted Campus Video, a short-lived program shown every Saturday morning at GMA Network. He then moved to ABS-CBN and became a co-host on Talk TV,[1] which is a morning talk show co-hosted by broadcasters Julius Babao and Christine Bersola-Babao, and actress Janette McBride. He also hosted Breakfast, an early morning variety program; Star in a Million, with Edu Manzano and Zsa Zsa Padilla, and Y Speak,[2] a youth-oriented talk show and debate forum. Both shows aired in Studio 23, an ABS-CBN Corporation subsidiary. He won his first KBP Golden Dove Awards for Best Talk Show Host in 2005 for Studio 23's Y Speak.[3]

Agoncillo was the main host of Philippine Idol[4] alongside fellow ABS-CBN actress Heart Evangelista on ABC-5 (now TV5) before it was moved to GMA Network and rebooted into Pinoy Idol. In August 2008, he began hosting TV5's Talentadong Pinoy, which showcases Filipino undiscovered talents.[5] He also hosted Endemol's Pinoy Fear Factor which aired on ABS-CBN. Pinoy Fear Factor was shot entirely in Argentina.[6]

On October 24, 2009, Agoncillo finally returned to GMA Network and began hosting the country's longest running noontime show, Eat Bulaga!.[7] From April 2010 to February 2011, Agoncillo co-hosted the noontime musical variety show P.O.5 on TV5.[8] For his hosting stints in Eat Bulaga! and Talentadong Pinoy, Agoncillo became a four-time award winner of the Aliw Award for Best Male Emcee, for which he won consecutively from 2007 to 2010. In 2010, he was elevated to the Hall of Fame.[9] Agoncillo hosted a game show called Picture!
