Gardo Versoza On Working With Cannes Best Actress Jaclyn Jose As His Wife In New GMA Show 'A1 Ko Sa'Yo'


GARDO VERSOZA now has two regular shows with GMA Network. He is seen nightly as the father of Heart Evangelista in “Juan Happy Love Story”. Starting June 2, he will also be seen Thursday nights in the sexy comedy, “A1 Ko Sa’yo!” as the husband of #JaclynJose.

“Maganda ang role ko sa ‘A1’ kasi naturingang marriage counselor ako, pero mismong misis ko, napapabayaan ko at may problema sa’kin pagdating sa sex life namin kasi tigang na tigang na siya sa’kin,” he says. “Tapos, ang isa pang may gusto sa’kin dito, ang gym owner na si Roi Vinzon, na closet queen pala. Abangan nyo kung saan pupunta ang story at anong dahilan kung bakit ayokong galawin si Jaclyn.”

So how is it working with Jaclyn? “Never kaming nagkatrabaho sa movies, but on TV, maraming beses na, last yung ‘More Than Words’ with Janine Gutierrez. Gamay na gamay na namin ang isa’t isa so it’s so easy to work with her. At very happy ako sa pananalo niya as best actress sa CannesFilmfest. Very deserving siya to win.” Cannes2016

Supporting them in the cast are Solenn Heussaff and Gee Canlas as the models in Jaclyn’s agency, Denise Barbacena as Jaclyn’s daughter, Mara Alberto as her secretary, Sef Cadayona as their photographer and Benjamin Alves and Ervic Vijandre as the resident hunks in Roi’s gym. The special guest star in the pilot episode is Lovi Poe, as a model Jaclyn is grooming to join a beauty pageant but she turns out to be pregnant. Looks like Gardo is enjoying doing comedy. Even “Juan Happy Love Story” is actually more of a comedy and he seems to be having a good time playing the husband of the domineering Lotlot de Leon in the story.

“Sinabi mo. Breather nga sa’kin ang comedies na ito kasi puro drama ang ginagawa ko, na nakakapagod din, lalo na kapag kontrabida ang role ko na lagi akong galit. Ang it’s so nice to be busy. MWF, taping ko for ‘Juan Happy’, Thursdays naman, dito sa ‘A1 Ko Sa’yo1!’ Nakakapagod pero may time pa ako sa business ko. Don’t miss ‘Juan Happy’ this week kasi dadalhin si Heart ng friends niya sa isang gay bar and she’ll be scandalized. Si Joross Gamboa naman, lalasingin si Dennis tapos papalibutin ng mga seksing babae saka tatawagin si Heart para makita ito. Magagalit si Heart at ayaw nang pakasal kay Dennis.”

He has put up his own food business, cooking ducks or “itik” that he gets from Angono. “Iba-ibang dishes: adobo, kaldereta, even kare-kare. Specialty ko yung pinahigang itik. Ino-order or delivery lang. If you want to order, you can get in touch with me sa Facebook account ko, Cupcake Bikers 143. May nagsa-suggest na magbukas na ako ng restaurant, pero that needs full time supervision, so we’ll see.”
