Abi Marquez Scores Another International Nomination—This Time at The Telly Awards!

Abi Marquez is on a roll with international recognition! Hot on the heels of her second Webby nomination, Abi has just been announced as a double nominee at the prestigious 45th Annual Telly Awards, one of the most respected honors in global video and television production. This marks another huge milestone for the Filipino content creator who’s been steadily making waves on the international stage.

The nominations recognize Abi’s creativity, authenticity, and her commitment to uplifting Filipino cuisine for the world to see. And what's even more exciting? Both nominations are under the People's Telly Awards, meaning public voting will determine the winners.

Founded in 1979, the Telly Awards honor excellence in video and television across all screens—whether it’s broadcast TV, digital, or social media. Over the years, they’ve become one of the most recognized platforms for creators, producers, and media companies around the world.

Today, the Tellys receive over 13,000 entries annually from all 50 U.S. states and 6 continents. Nominees and winners include a wide range of content—spanning branded campaigns, documentaries, immersive experiences, and digital-first series. Being nominated is no small feat—especially for an independent creator representing the Philippines on such a massive stage.

Here’s what Abi is nominated for:

Abi Marquez for People’s Telly Online Series, Shows & Segments Category

Abi is recognized for her overall work as a digital creator—think of it as a nod to the entire series of content she puts out. From quickfire recipes to deep dives into Filipino dishes, her videos strike the perfect balance between entertaining and educational. This nomination places her in the same category as Warner Bros. Discovery, Disney Experiences, and LANY Entertainment—huge names in global media.

What makes this even cooler is that Abi’s the only nominee in this list representing Filipino homegrown content on a global stage.

“Gordon Ramsay Doesn’t Like My Beef Wellington” for People’s Telly Social Video

In this viral video, Abi recreated the iconic Beef Wellington—one of Gordon Ramsay’s most famously difficult dishes—with a Filipino twist. But here’s the catch: she did it knowing full well Ramsay might not approve. The result? A video that’s equal parts hilarious, educational, and wildly entertaining.

The piece is nominated in the Social Video category, which honors outstanding short-form content designed for platforms like TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube. This entry is up against work from Netflix Queue, CeraVe, Al Jazeera Digital, and more—basically the heavy hitters of internet storytelling.

Abi’s mission has always been clear: to put Filipino food to the global stage. With every nomination, she’s getting closer. Now’s our chance to back her up and get her that win. 

The People’s Telly category is decided by public vote—and voting is open until April 19 only. Simply sign and click to vote:
