Martin Escudero Claims He's Also Well Endowed Like Billy Crawford

MARTIN ESCUDERO has won two best actor awards (Gawad Tanglaw and Golden Screen) for his performance as a reluctant gay in “Zombadings”, an indie film. He now does a mainstream comedy, “Moron 5 and the Crying Lady” for Viva Films where he also has a scene where he wears women’s clothes. Isn’t he afraid he might be typecast in gay roles?

“Hindi naman. Sa TV, l play lead roles like in the recent ‘Glamorosa’ and now, in ‘Kapitan Awesome’. I grew up with gays around so hindi rin ako naiilang. Sa ‘Moron 5’ nga, si BB Gandanghari ang peg ko sa pagiging girl,” he says.

So who’s better looking, he or BB? “You be the judge.” One writer quips: “Definitely, ikaw ang mas bata at sariwa.” He laughs.

What if he turns into a gay himself? “Naku hindi, sure ako sa pagkalalaki ko. Ilang beses ko ng nasubukan.” How come he has had no girlfriend after breaking up with Jennica Garcia? “It’s my choice. Breadwinner ako sa family namin. Tutulungan ko muna sila kaya career muna ang concentration ko ngayon.”

John Lapus, who plays the Crying Lady, declared that Billy Crawford is the most well endowed among the male cast members of their film that include Luis Manzano, Marvin Agustin and DJ Durano. What can he say about this? “Bilang paggalang kay Billy na nakatatanda sa akin, sige, okay. Pero kung ang reason, dahil may dugong Amerikano kasi siya, may dugo rin akong Kano, no? Ang real family name ko is Butler. Kayo na mag-judge kung bukol din lang ang labanan sa eksenang nag-macho dancing kami.”
