Vice Ganda may be making people around him happy but deep inside, he is crying and have been asking himself if he can still continue to make people laugh amid the ongoing health crisis.
The comedian revealed all these during an interview with Ogie Diaz for the latter’s YouTube channel.
During the interview, Vice became emotional when he admitted asking himself questions if he can still make people laugh during the pandemic.
“Hindi ko talaga alam kung nakakatawa pa ako o kung magaling pa ako. Meron akong gustong gawin, meron akong gustong ibigay. Tapos ngayon ang hirap. Hindi ko talaga alam kung nakakatawa pa ako o kung magaling pa ako kasi hindi ko naman naririnig kung may nag-rereact. Wala namang audience,” Vice said.
TV shows like It’s Showtime started banning audience at the onset of the pandemic. The show’s host and direct participants of their contests now have to perform on stage without live audience.
“Dati, lumabas pa lang ako nagwawala na ‘yung audience. So, parang damang-dama mo ‘yung love. Lalo kang gaganahan. ‘Ah ito ‘yung mga nag-aabang sa akin. Patatawanin ko kayong lahat.’ Ngyon wala nang ganu’n. Patatawin mo dingding,” Vice lamented.
He also revealed feeling all alone during the height of the pandemic, though he has learned to conceal his emotions primarily because of the audience.
He said what gives him strength are the comments of the audience online, telling him that he’s making them happy and he also helps get rid of their stress.
“Kasi nga, ‘yung trabaho ko is considering not just myself but considering a lot of people. ‘Di ba ‘yung magbabasa ka lang online, ‘Napapasaya mo ako lalo na ngayong pandemya. Stressed na stressed ako pero nawawala stress ko ‘pag napapanood ka.’ May purpose ka na,” Vice told Ogie during the interview.
