Abi’s success is a victory for the Philippines and Filipino cuisine on the global stage. As a proud Filipino creator, Abi has been instrumental in showcasing the beauty and depth of Filipino food, making it more accessible and appreciated by audiences worldwide. Her nomination and potential win bring well-deserved recognition to the richness of Filipino culinary traditions, inspiring more people to explore and celebrate our vibrant flavors.
Abi is up against some formidable competition, including renowned food personality Joshua Weissman, best known for his viral cooking videos and extensive social media presence, and Babish (Andrew Rea), the creator behind the wildly popular YouTube series Binging with Babish, which recreates iconic meals from film and television. Another competitor is Olivia Tiedemann, a rising star in the food content space whose innovative recipes have captivated audiences across multiple platforms.
What It Means to Be a Webby Nominee
Being nominated for a Webby Award is a major achievement. With over 13,000 entries submitted across various categories, only the top 12% of projects receive nominations, making this an elite recognition. The Webby Awards, known as the “Oscars of the Internet,” celebrate the best in digital content, and winning a Webby signifies excellence in creativity, impact, and innovation.
There are two major awards up for grabs:
-
The Webby Award, selected by the International Academy of Digital Arts and Sciences (IADAS).
-
The Webby People’s Voice Award, which is decided by public voting.
Winning the People’s Voice Award would be a huge milestone for Abi, giving her well-deserved recognition for her creativity, dedication, and influence in the online food community. Her 2024 victory showed the power of her fanbase—let’s make it happen again!
