PAOLO BALLESTEROS looks so pretty in drag when we visited the set of “
I Heart You Pare” that is ending this Friday to be replaced by “
Amaya”. “Maganda pa siya sa ibang tunay na babae kaya maski sa Twitter, andaming fans na pumupuri sa ganda niya,” writers who saw him remark. Is he willing to play another gay role after his effective portrayal of the bitchy Vodka who’s contravida to Regine Velasquez then
Iza Calzado? “Oo naman, basta trabaho, go! Pero sana, sa susunod, mas mataas na talent fee ko,” he laughs. “It’s no joke to do a drag role. Sumasakit ang legs ko sa high heels, no? Magastos din. Buti GMA buys all my clothes, pero yung shoes ko, ako mismo bumibili. I have ten pairs na of women shoes na pinagpapalit-palit ko. Marunong na rin akong magkabit at mag-alis ng sarili kong false eyelashes. But I wish mabigyan din sana ko ng ibang klaseng roles. Puede naman akong taong graza. O halimaw kaya. So people will know kaya ko ring gumanap ng ibang characters at di puro bading lang. At habang wala pa kong bagong soap, balik muna ko daily sa ‘Eat Bulaga’.
