As an actor, Hilario has acted in movies such as Muro Ami, released in 1999, in which he portrayed Butong; D' Anothers (2005), and Dekada '70 (2002).[4]

Since 2012, Hilario is part of ABS-CBN's noontime show It's Showtime, starting as a judge until he became one of the hosts of the program.

Hilario decided to run for councilor in the 1st district of Makati under the United Nationalist Alliance in 2016. In an interview, Hilario credited his father, Virgilio Sr., who served as a councilor for 9 years, as his main inspiration to run for the council seat.[5]
