SINON LORESCA is an openly macho gay who used to be based in London but gained fame as Rogelio in Eat Bulaga’s Kalyeserye. He became known as the King of the Catwalk when he imitated Pia Wurtzbach’s ramp walk wearing very high heels when the Miss Universe pageant was held here.
He now gets to act in his first soap in GMA-7’s “Impostora”, where he plays a very comic role Kris Bernal’s gay best friend and defender against her oppressors. He says he enjoys being a comedian.
“Ever since maliit pa ako, yun na ang papel ko sa buhay, ang magpasaya ng mga tao,” he says.
“Enjoy talaga akong mag-comedy, so dito, magpapasaya rin ako. Nagpapasalamat ako dahil ang first acting job ko, with Kris Bernal, kasi hindi lang siya maganda kundi isang mabuting tao. Sa set, kapag kailangang umiyak siya sa set at nakita niya ako, natatawa na siya.”
Who’s his favorite actress? “Sa local, si Kris na. Totoo yan. Sa foreign, si Angelina Jolie kasi gusto ko yung lagi siyang naka-pout. Ginagaya ko nga ko yung lips niya, e.”
He admits he has a British husband who he will visit soon in England. “Huwag na lang natin banggitin ang name niya kasi very private person siya and straight acting siya kaya hindi alam sa work niya na gay siya. I’m 28 and 38 na siya. Nag-same sex marriage kami noong 2010 pa. So ngayon, LDR kami (long distance relationship) and so far, okay naman. Supportive siya sa acting career ko kasi alam niya enjoy ako rito. Dinalaw niya ako rito noon at two months siya rito. Ngayon naman, ako ang dadalaw sa kanya, pero sandali lang kasi nga may ‘Impostora’ ako na start airing na on June 19. He understands naman.”
