HINDI na kami nagulat when Richard Parojinog, also known as Mr. Pastillas is trying showbiz.
After winning the Mr. Pastillas title at na-link kay Ms. Pastillas, Angelica Yap, naging matunog ang pangalan ni Richard. Kahit paano, may name recall ang kanyang pangalan at napasikat naman siya ng It’s Showtime.
Aminado si Richard na his few dates with Angelica did not lead to anything romantic. They have just become friends.
“But we have remained friends. Mayroon naman kaming communication. Nagkukumustahan naman kami, nagte-text pero hindi na masyadong frequent ngayon,” say Richard who is not trying his luck in showbiz.
Inalok pala si Richard ng Viva Films para maging artista pero nothing concrete came. Inalok din siyang maging member ng Hashtags but he politely turned it down.
“Hindi kasi ako marunong magsayaw,” say niya.
Realistic si Richard. Alam niya ang kanyang kapasidad bilang emerging actor.
“Mas gusto kong maging character actor kasi wala naman akong pag-asang maging heartthrob,” say niya.
Actually, talented naman si Richard. Nakakakanta naman siya. Growing up, nahiligan niya ang music at nakapag-perform na naman siya in the past.
For now, this HRM graduate is into acting workshops. Kailangan ding hasain niya ang kanyang dila sa Filipino.
Good luck Richard. Welcome to showbiz.
