Showbiz Central

Showbiz Central is a Philippine show business-oriented talk show which airs every Sunday on GMA Network with a simulcast over DZBB Super Radyo. The show preceded S-Files, a former showbiz talk show that completed a successful eight-year run. The program made its debut on April 29, 2007.

Rufa Mae Quinto left the show in 2012 and her last episode as a host on the show was on April 15, 2012.

News that the show was rumored to be axed on the air circulated in late June 2012. Moreso, GMA released an on-air plug on June 29, 2012 stating that a new program is to be shown on GMA, something more than the usual entertainment buzz. Although such plug was aired, the management of GMA has neither confirmed nor denied the axing of the show on-air. The reasons as to why the show might come to an end is Pia Guanio, one of its hosts, is going to give birth soon and Jennylyn Mercado, another guest host turned regular host, is going to be busy with her show, Hindi Ka Na Mag-iisa.

After much rumors, one of the show's main host, John Lapus, confirmed in an interview with PEP.ph that the show will indeed be axed off the air and he will not be a host in the show set to replace, starring Regine Velasquez-Alcasid, Roderick Paulate but the new show will retain two of Showbiz Central's hosts, Raymond Gutierrez and Jennylyn Mercado.
