Luis Alandy scores 40! The actor causes a stir on morning radio when he plays "Forbidden Questions" in Good Times, hosted by Mojo Jojo, Andi9, and the controversial Mo Twister, today. He is the third celebrity to get a perfect score on the show; the other two are Lolit Solis and Borgy Manotoc.
"Forbidden Questions" is a segment in the show where celebrity guests are challenged to answer provocative questions about themselves and the showbiz industry. This means that both the names being dropped and the name-dropper are well known to the public tuning in-which directly accounts for the heightened excitement generated by the show.
Before the game began, Mo Twister warns Luis of the possible consequences of his answers. In the past, celebrities who played this game got flak from the celebs they name-dropped and from some members of the entertainment press.
Luis refused to heed to Mo's forewarning. Question after question, he answered all of them one by one-straight to the point and without hesitation. Here are some of his answers:
Man Crush. "I guess Jericho [Rosales]. He's sort of my mentor. When I started acting in ABS-CBN, I saw him act..."
Cheated on a girlfriend? "Yeah, I think with Tin Tin Arnaldo." Luis used to go out with Tin Arnaldo, a singer-actress from GMA-7.
Lies told on chismis shows. Luis, star of indie film Barcelona, says "No, I always tell the truth."
ABS-CBN or GMA-7? He says he watches ABS-CBN more, but says GMA-7 treats its talents better.
Age when he lost his virginity? "14, it was something very special. I was about to turn 15, so birthday gift."
Animals that remind him of the following people-Alessandra de Rossi, Desiree del Valle, Roxanne Barcelo, Andi 9, and Mojo Jojo. "Alex: lion because she's so loud, but she commands, she's brave... Des: bird, she's just the sweetest thing... Roxanne: hyena... Andi: fox! Mojo Jojo: crocodile, I think he's dangerous."
Indecent proposals? "Yeah, he was a gay guy. He told me he was a manager of some sort, and I think I knew him from before, from [ABS-CBN] Talent Center. He used to manage this talent. He told me that a friend of his wants to meet me and he's gay. They're gonna pay me around P200,000, I think, to meet that person. And they told me that we're gonna go in this hotel. I really cursed him. ‘What kind of guy do you think I am?' you know."
Bad encounter with a local celebrity. "You know this question is hard because if I'm gonna answer this question. I'd be saying the name of one of the most powerful persons... Personally, I haven't had any bad encounters with any big stars. It was my sister-in-law and my niece," explains Luis.
He recounts, "A tito of mine works in ABS-CBN and he brought my sister-in-law and niece to watch this show... When it was break time, my sister-in-law and my niece wanted to have a picture with this famous celebrity. And of course, they were starstruck because of the celebrity. It took them time to take out the camera and... my niece, who at that time was two or three... they were taking time. This same celebrity told my niece, ‘Ang tagal tagal niyo, tutulak kita e!' Every time I ask my niece what this celebrity told her, she'd say ‘I'll push you.'"
A caller asks if the celebrity is Kris Aquino.
"Yeah, Kris!" he says bluntly.
Worst body odor. "I'm gonna say my good friend... I think Paolo Paraiso because he smokes a lot."
Worst dresser. "I think it used to be Carlos Agassi."
Worst actor and worst actress. "For the actor, I think... I do think in show business, in years you've been in show business, you can improve... right now, I think Gerald Anderson. [For the worst actress,] I think Sandara Park."
Most plastic person. "Nothing personal, Jobert Sucaldito, ‘cause I remember he was writing nasty things about me before. When I saw him once, when I guested on The Buzz, he was like ‘O Luis, kamusta ka na?'" says Luis.
Mo warns Luis that Jobert might write something bad about him.
"I don't mind," says Luis bravely. "You know, we've known each other ever since I started in show business and I don't mind. I don't mind if you write anything bad about me. I couldn't care less."
Mo follows up the question about the "most plastic celebrity" and says the answer should be a celebrity.
"Considering what happened, what I told you a while ago about the story of my sister-in-law and my niece, I would say it's Kris [Aquino] at times," answers Luis.
Celebrity plastic surgery secret. "Angelika dela Cruz, the chin."
Celebrity "closet queen." Luis asks, "Can it be two guys?"
Mo goads him, "I'll give a point for every single one."
Without hesitation, Luis answers, "One is Uma Khouny... And I think Paolo Ballesteros."
He adds, "For all those who are saying that Piolo, I'd just like to point out [he's not]. The guy is so nice."
Mo seconds, "He's not gay. The nicest guys are the easiest targets in the world. And that's why everybody makes fun of him because he's so nice... Not gay! No way! Not at all!"
Celebrity he dislikes. "I worked with him sa stage play before, si Jay Manalo... He's a good actor and all, pero his working attitude is... it really pissed me off."
Better in bed, Roxanne or Alex? "The thing is, I never slept with Alex [Alessandra de Rossi]."
Three famous people he slept with. "Including my girlfriends, of course. Honestly, there's only one person I've slept with that's not my girlfriend," explains Luis.
"We already know one since I asked him who's better in bed and he only answered he never slept with Alex..." clarifies Mo.
"Not in the same league. We didn't last long, around one-and-a-half months," answers Luis.
He finally reveals, "One is Desiree, two Tin Arnaldo, the third one...Kat Alano."
