THE “SWEET” relationship of TV host-comedian Vice Ganda and PBA player Calvin “The Beast” Abueva is not unknown to the public.
Vice, 42, often watches when the Phoenix Fuel Masters, Calvin’s team, has a game.
PEP.ph was able to speak with Vice at the grand opening of Vice Cosmetics flagship store at Market! Market in Taguig City on Nov. 17.
Vice was asked why he and Calvin did not hide their special friendship, compared to other men who were linked to him.
The It’s Showtime host said: “Masayang-masaya ako ngayon, kaming dalawa.”
“Kasama siya, masaya kami, at natutuwa ako na may mga taong natutuwa din for me, especially for me.,” Vice added. “Yung support online, may mga nababasa ako, ang ganda ng mga sinasabi nila. Na sabi ko, it’s due time na yung mga tao naman, e, hindi na ganun kababaw at hindi na ganun kababoy ang tingin.”
“Hindi… kasi, di ba, may taong akala mo naman diring-diri, baboy. Ano ba yun? Ano bang madumi, ano bang mali, di ba? Tumatalino na rin kahit papa’no yung mga tao, maganda na yung feedback, nakakatuwa,” Vice shared. “Ibig sabihin nun, gumaganda lalo ang estado ng puso ng maraming tao, kasi nagiging ano sila, e, mas welcoming, nagiging understanding.”
He also said: “Ini-embrace na nila yung mga ganung konteksto at uri ng pakikipagkaibigan. Ngayon lang naman ako nagkaroon ng lalaking kaibigan [na] proud sa akin na ganyan.” (Pep.ph)
