Jake Vargas Happy To Be Inah De Belen's First Leading Man In The New GMA Aternoon Soap, 'Oh My Mama'

JAKE VARGAS is happy to be new Kapuso star Inah de Belen’s first leading man in the new afternoon soap, “Oh My Mama”, that will start airing today after “Eat Bulaga”.

“Mabait si Inah kaya sa workshops pa lang, nagkasundo na kami agad,” says Jake. “Maganda ang role ko rito as Julio, a street smart kid na tutulong kay Inah as Maricel at sa mga alaga niya nang bihagin sila ng sindikato at gawing mga pulubi sa kalye.”



What’s the challenge of his role as Julio? “It’s something new for me. Offbeat ang character ko, originally played by William Martinez in the movie, kasi maangas ako, miembro ng sindikato, but I will defy them all. Dati akong gumagawa ng masama, petty crimes, pero ako ang magiging tatay-tatayan ng mga batang sina Therese Malvar, Jhiz Deocareza, Bryce Eusebio, Sofia Pablo and David Remo na puro magagaling umarte.”

Jake used to live with his dad and siblings in Olongapo but he now got his own condo in Quezon City. “Kapag weekends at kung may free time ako, doon na lang ako umuuwi sa Olongapo. Siempre pa, naninibago pa ako sa pagsasarili ko kasi I’m now on my own.”
