With decades of experience as a celebrity, multi-awarded comedian and host Vic Sotto firmly believes that practicing what you preach is the best way to teach younger talents today.
Bossing Vic is the lead actor in the much-awaited sitcom Open 24/7, which will also feature talented actors Jose Manalo and Maja Salvador.
Making the sitcom a lot more exciting is the depth of talent of their Gen Z cast members composed of Allen Ansay, Sofia Pablo, Riel Lomadilla, Anjay Anson, Abed Green, Kimson Tan, and Bruce Roeland.
Asked by the entertainment press during their media conference what tip or advice he wants to share with his younger co-stars, the seasoned comedian immediately stated that he needs to lead by example in terms of being professional.
The showbiz icon explained, “Alam mo para sa akin, pinaka the best talaga is lead by example. 'Yung kung ano 'yung makikita nila sa'yo, 'yun ang magbubukas ng mga isipin nila, e.
“Pagdating sa trabaho, pagdating sa showbiz like for example being professional, darating ka sa set ready ka. Pagka-oras ng trabaho, trabaho. Pag-laro, laro.
“Kami nila Jose [Manalo], ni Ate Maja [Salvador] we have to lead by example.”
Bossing added that their talented Gen Z cast should also learn the importance of having fun, while on the set.
Why is it essential?
Mr. Sotto emphasized, “Para sa akin ganun. Hindi mapapantayan ng kahit ano'ng advice o tip 'yun, e. Kailangan kung ano 'yung nakikita nila sa trabaho, pinaka-importante how to be professional and more importantly, kung papaano mo i-enjoy-in, kung paano ka mage-enjoy sa trabaho.
“'Yung happy ka, hindi mo mararamdaman na trabaho 'yun, dahil nag-e-enjoy ka, e.”
