BCCAsFounders of Body Confidence Canada
The 2016 4th annual Body Confidence Canada Awards (BCCAs) received a RARE treat when we were lucky enough to secure the highly sought after Daniel Pillai as our awards host!
Daniel seamlessly glided onto stage and into the hearts of our audience with his keen and well-timed sense of humour, his smooth dance moves, and his ability to vulnerably connect with our audience as he shared priceless reflections on his own journey towards body confidence throughout the evening! Daniel is a game changer.

As a passionate and dedicated Host, TV personality, Writer and Producer Daniel Pillai has made his mark on the television and entertainment industry. I met Daniel in 2012 ….my initial reaction, what a charismatic gentleman! I immediately was drawn to his personality. As I got to know Daniel it was evident that his passion, intelligence and joyfulness was at the heart of who he was. It was these qualities that he brought to every project, interview and show. While traveling to international destinations, interviewing celebrities and effortlessly navigating the red carpet, Daniel has always remained humble. This not only endears Daniel to his interviewees, but provides the groundwork for an in-depth and critical review.
As an Anti-bullying advocate and an LGBTQ supporter Daniel is committed to equality and compassion for all people. This is evident in his career and his philanthropic work. Daniel has, and always will be, one of those individuals who surpasses expectations and brings a little something special to every project he undertakes.” – TV Producer
