According to some listeners and pati na rin sa Pinoy Exchange members of Good Times With Mo thread, "worst, most boring, and a liar to boot" si Jake Roxas sa kanyang "40 Forbidden Questions."
The night before the Wednesday special edition ng weekday radio show ni Mo—with Mojo and Andi 9 sa Magic 89.9—na-announce na dalawang female stars ang maggi-guest, but they didn't announce the names para hindi raw ma-preempt. One posting sa nasabing PeX thread said that the guests would be Viva Hot Babes Andrea del Rosario and Jen Rosendahl. Jake Roxas, a former Viva talent from the TGIS days, took the hot seat instead.
Not known for humility, Jake excited listeners. Lalo na nang sa pag-upo pa lang, tinanong na niyang pabiro na bakit 40 questions daw, bakit hindi 72. Meaning, palaban siya. With some questions nga, bago sumagot si Jake, sasabihin niya agad na "marami"—meaning, he could give several names for a particular question.
Ngunit nang interview proper na, madalas na hindi agad nakakasagot si Jake kaya kinailangan pa ng commercial, traffic news update, and listeners' reactions.
Nagsimula pa rin sa mga easy questions ang tanong, although may bagong twist na na-introduce for Jake's appearance. Randomly selected from a hat (or a box) ngayon ang tanong, so kahit si Mo, hindi alam ang next question.
EASY QUESTIONS. Fortunately for Jake, the first several questions were easy, so madali siyang nakasagot. Puro mga kapwa Viva talents ang mga naisagot halos ni Jake.
Showbiz hottest mom para kay Jake si Dina Bonnevie.
Jake thinks na he slept with a fan way back in 1990, pero hindi niya maalala kung sino.
He hates the "kaplastikan sa showbiz." He cites ang ilang "teeny boppers daw ang image pretending to be good boys, pero hindi sa tunay na buhay." Jake opined dahil magaling ang mga managers nila.
Sa fruit and animal association, ihinalintulad ni Jake ang co-star niya sa Xerex na si Aubrey Miles sa isang bunny at sa isang carrot; si Alfred Vargas sa isang dog and a banana; ang co-TGIS star niyang si Onemig Bondoc sa isang pony and atis (dahil mabuto raw ito); at sina Cristy Fermin and Jobert Sucaldito sa dove (for peace, para magkabati na raw sila nina Mo).
Jake says he has never tried illegal drugs and he doesn't even smoke.
Ang fifth message sa cell phone ni Jake was from Henri, ang head researcher ng S-Files of GMA-7. The message was: "Good luck Jake, go 40!"
Sa umpisa, walang local man-crush si Jake dahil wala pa raw siyang nakikitang mas lalaki sa kanya, so he went for Brad Pitt. Later, he adds his co-basketball teammate na si Gene Padilla dahil nakakatawa raw kasi ang komedyante.
PLASTIC SURGERY. Nagpaligoy-ligoy rin si Jake sa tanong na "female celebrity who could admit having plastic surgery." Wala raw siyang alam na hindi pa nag-a-admit dahil kapag umamin ang mga artista, sikat sila.
Una niyang binanggit si Maui Taylor kung umamin na, then ang tatlong StarStruck girls na sina Yasmien Kurdi (he first pronounced it "Jasmine" so the hosts thought it was Jasmine Trias), Jennylyn Mercado, and Katrina Halili, and later—kahit hindi niya alam—si Regine Velasquez daw for a couple of parts siguro. Isinama niya rin si Alfred Vargas for the guy.
