MANILA, Philippines - Comedienne Melisa "Melai" Cantiveros will work for the first time with her real-life showbiz crush, actor Jericho Rosales.

The two, together with "Umagang Kay Ganda" host Iya Villania, will host ABS-CBN's newest reality show titled "I Dare You."

"Ang 'I Dare You' ay original concept ng ABS-CBN. Dito ipapakita kung ano ang realidad ng buhay," Rosales said.

"Aabangan 'yong mga Bida Kapamilya at ang mga challengers na susuungin ang hirap ng buhay na pinagdadaanan ng mga unknown heroes," Villania said.

"I Dare You", a joint project of ABS-CBN’s News and Current Affairs Division and the TV Entertainment Group, will challenge celebrities to carry out tasks in order to help win a reward for ordinary Filipinos worthy of the title, “Bidang Kapamilya.”

The “Bidang Kapamilya” are Pinoys who bravely face life’s challenges no matter how hard they get, such as market vendors, teachers in far-flung areas, laborers, stuntmen, garbage and junk collectors, farmers, senior citizens, and people with disability, among others.

Celebrity Kapamilya challengers will enter their world and experience their lives firsthand to understand their way of life. They will also try to help them by winning a prize for them in the challenge.

In the first episode of “I Dare You,” popular dancer and theater actor Gab Valenciano and multi-awarded actress Alessandra De Rossi will join Rosales as he goes back to his roots in Marikina, where he carried heavy loads and sold fish in a wet market prior to joining showbiz.

“I Dare You,” will air Mondays to Fridays beginning July 11, before “Mula sa Puso.”
