Actor-dancer Vhong Navarro said that talent for humor must be the reason why a lot of local female stars are attracted to him.
In an interview, Navarro said that he is flattered with reports that he is one of the showbiz crushes of actress Bea Alonzo.
“Nakakahiya. Nakakahiya pero kasi si [Bea] naman kaya noong diniscribe niya ako kung paano niya akong naging crush isa lang ang sinabi niya na ‘nakakatawa sya,’ iyon lang naman hindi naman sa looks, hindi naman ako naiilang doon kung sa looks baka pwede pa akong mailang.
Aside from Alonzo, actresses like Roxanne Guinoo and Valerie Concepcion publicly confessed their admiration for Navarro.
“Siguro nga nagiging crush nila ako because siguro ‘funny’ hanggang doon lang naman ako funny,” he explains.
“Siguro natatawa sila sa akin at masaya akong kasama iyon lang siguro,” Navarro added. He recently signed a contract with ABS-CBN for upcoming series “I Love Betty La Fea,” Wednesday, August 27.
“Panibagong aabangan na naman ng ating kapamilya followers, sobrang pinaganda ang ‘Betty La Fea’ ginastusan,” he said.
Navarro said that in the series he will be playing the character of Nicolas Mora, the confidant and best friend of Betty.
The actor said that he doesn’t mind being a supporting character for on-screen partners Alonzo and John Lloyd Cruz.
“Kahit supporting ka dito mapasok ka dito isang malaking karangalan iyon sa isang artista na makasama ka dito kasi hindi lang ito mapapanood sa Pilipinas mapapanood din tayo sa ibang bansa,” he said.
Right now, Navarro said that he is professionally and personally happy and enjoys his life despite that fact that he is in dealing with annulment case he filed against estranged wife Bianca Lapus. Navarro and Lapus have two kids.
Navarro started his career as a member of the dance group "Street Boys". He was then discovered by Director Chito Roño, who continues to serve as his manager.
He is well-known for his movies "Mr. Suave" and "Gagamboy". Late last year, the self-proclaimed Jim Carrey of the Philippines launched his first television series "Lastikman."
Navarro is now busy promoting his latest film "Supapahlicious", and is a regular performer of ABS-CBN’s weekly variety show "ASAP."
