Jhong Hilario, Jackie Gonzaga, and Cianne Dominguez ended Magpasikat week with a bang on Friday as they delivered an impressive performance on "It's Showtime," which is celebrating its 15th year. 

The trio, dubbed Team JJC, kicked off their Magpasikat number with a series of emotional dance numbers set to "Ako Naman Muna" by Angela Ken.

They shone a spotlight on mental health, reminding audiences to be kind as people who seem happy on the outside may be silently struggling with inner battles.

At one point, Hilario, dubbed local showbiz' "Sample King," was joined on stage with fellow dancers Niana Guerrero and Rochelle Pangilinan, as well as his daughter Sarina.

He also rode the "wheel of death," with Gonzaga and Dominguez also taking their turn in doing stunts. 

Towards the end of their Magpasikat performance, more stars and mental health advocates graced the stage. Among them were beauty queens Kylie Verzosa and Michelle Dee, actresses Sofia Andres, Maxene Magalona, and Louise delos Reyes, and singer Jed Madela.

The performers, along with the "It's Showtime" hosts and audience, were given green scarves to symbolize how Team JJC cares for their mental health. 

"Ang mental health napapanahon talaga kasi maraming nakakaranas," said Hilario, who won last year's Magpasikat with Amy Perez and Kim Chiu. 

"Ito po hindi lang performance, it's an advocacy," he added. "Dahil ngayon sine-celebrate ang World Mental Health Month."

The judges for this year's Magpasikat include filmmaker Rory Quintos, actor Donny Pangilinan, actresses Gabbi Garcia and Alice Dixson, and former ABS-CBN president Freddie Garcia. 

"It's Showtime" airs every 12 noon on A2Z, Kapamilya channel, Kapamilya Online Live, GMA, GTV, ABS-CBN Entertainment's YouTube channel and Facebook page, iWantTFC, TFC, and GMA Pinoy TV.
