Viva fuels collab rumors after Wilbert Ross, Gian Bernardino are spotted together

Artists spotted at Viva HQ spark buzz over possible music, film, or crossover projects.

Something may be brewing at Viva.

Viva Artists Agency has sparked excitement online after teasing a possible collaboration between Wilbert Ross and Gian Bernardino, following a social media post showing the two artists together at the company’s headquarters.

“Spotted at the VIVA HQ: Wilbert Ross (@itswilbertross) and Gian Bernardino (@gian.pb)! Something exciting is in the works. Collab soon?” the agency wrote on Instagram, offering no further details.

The cryptic teaser immediately sent fans into speculation mode, with many wondering whether the pair are preparing a music release, a film or series project, or another crossover under the Viva banner.

The collaboration would bring together two artists who have each carved out successful careers in different corners of the entertainment industry.

Ross, dubbed the “Multimedia Crooner,” first gained national attention through Tawag ng Tanghalan and Pinoy Boyband Superstar before joining the second generation of Hashtags on It’s Showtime. Since signing with Viva Artists Agency in 2020, he has established himself as a singer-songwriter, actor, host, author, and filmmaker. His music includes the viral hit “Maaari Ba,” the EP LAMPARA, and the album Aking Musika. Earlier this year, he also celebrated a major milestone after selling out both nights of his solo concert, WRten By, at the New Frontier Theater in under an hour.

Bernardino, meanwhile, is best known as a founding member and one of the lead vocalists of OPM pop-rock sensation Cup of Joe, whose hits such as “Multo” and “Tingin” have become streaming favorites. Beyond music, he has steadily ventured into acting, appearing in independent films and digital series before officially signing with Viva Artists Agency and Viva Films as a solo artist in June 2026, fulfilling a longtime dream of pursuing an acting career.

Because both artists are known for writing music and expanding into acting, directing, and other creative fields, fans have floated various possibilities—from an original song to a screen project.

For now, Viva is keeping the details under wraps, leaving followers eagerly awaiting an official announcement about what the two multi-hyphenate artists have in store.
