Jay Manalo flew to California last December 2005 to receive another best-actor award (after receiving an Urian). This time, it came from Gawad Amerika, a three-year-old Los Angeles-based independent award-giving body that recognizes the achievements of Filipino artists.

 

Jay bagged the award for TV Best Actor for his performance as Maricel Soriano’s Vietnamese lover in ABS-CBN’s defunct soap, Vietnam Rose. The TV Best Actress trophy went to Sunshine Dizon, who won for her portrayal of a villainous princess in GMA-7’s Encantadia.

 

The awards ceremony was held on December 23 at Hollywood’s Celebrity Center. Jay returned to the Philippines on January 7.
