Joross Gamboa Joins 'Superstar Duets' Now That 'Juan Happy Love Story' Is Ending

JOROSS GAMBOA as Bob will shock the followers of the hit primetime romcom that ends on Friday, “Juan Happy Love Story”, because Kim Domingo as Agatha will get pregnant and it will turn out that he is the father and not Kim’s lover in the story, Dennis Trillo as Juan.

“Unfair nga,” he says when we visited the set of “Juan Happy Love Story”. “Ni wala man lang kaming matinding love scene ni Kim. Sila ni Dennis ang laging maraming bed scene, tapos ako pala yung tatay ng baby niya. Sabi ko nga kay Direk, baka puede ipakita sa flashbacks kung paano nabuo yung baby,” he jokes.

He enjoyed doing “Juan Happy Love Story” so much. “Kasi napakita ko yung comic side ko. Si Bob dito, maloko, mayabang, pero deep inside, mabait siya at loyal friend kay Heart. Natutuwa nga ako kapag binabasa ko yung comments sa’kin. Puro positive.”

So what’s next after “Juan Happy Love Story”? Will he go back to being a Kapamilya? “Free lance naman ako ngayon, puede ako kahit saang network. But my manager, si Noel Ferrer, sobrang bilib sa’kin, ipinasok naman ako sa singing contest. Part ako ngayon ng ‘Superstar Duets’ hosted by Jennylyn Mercado that starts airing on September 3 na.”

So how’s Noel doing these days? “Galing lang sa States. Aalis na naman daw for London. Hindi na nga namin nakikitang mga talent niya. Tine-text lang kami. Alam naming nasa abroad na naman siya, kapag bina-Viber na kami about our schedules. Pero enjoy naman ako sa ‘Superstar Duets’. Naka-two taping days na kami. Mga kasama ko rito, sina Jerald Napoles, Pecto, Rita Daniela, Denise Barbacena at iba pang singers. Sabi ko, ako lang ang hindi totoong singer dito, a. Kaya kino-comedy ko na lang. Ang ka-duet namin dito, well known singers. Sa’kin, ang ka-duet ko, si Adelle. Kinanta na namin yung ‘Rolling in the Deep’. Then ‘Someone Like You’. Sabi ko nga, kung si Adelle mismo, nahihirapan dun sa kanta niya, di lalo na ako. Sina Christian Bautista, Allan K at Aicelle Santos ang judges namin.”

Isn’t he scared he might be bashed by viewers? “Naku, inunahan ko na sila. Bina-bash ko yung mga kasamahan kong contestants.”

Joross remains to be a doting dad to his son who’s turning one year old in October. He got a new house for them in Paranaque. “Dati si Tirso Cruz III ang neighbor ko, ngayon si Christopher de Leon na.”
