Being a TV star is RJ’s childhood dream. In fact, when he was still in elementary (primary school), he tried to convince his parents to allow him to enter show business but they didn’t like the idea.
“Ayaw lang talaga ng mga magulang ko lalo na yung erpats (father) ko kasi gusto nila makapagtapos ako sa pag-aaral. Si erpats kasi napagdaanan niya na e, matagal tagal na rin naman siya sa industriya at alam niya na ang takbo sa industriyang ito. Siyempre hindi rin siya nakapagtapos at nandun yung panghihinayang niya kaya gusto niya yung mga anak niya makapagtapos.”
Now that finally he’s found a gateway to the industry, RJ swears to flex his muscles – figuratively – and push his limits as far as acting is concerned.
“Gusto ko talaga comedy pero para sa akin, bilang artista kailangan lahat ay kaya mong gampanan. Gusto kong i-push ang sarili ko sa kung hanggan saan kaya,” he said.
