Veteran comedian Roderick Paulate spoke out in defense of fellow comedian Vice Ganda amid criticism of the ‘It’s Showtime’ host’s brand of humor, emphasizing that the comedian’s popularity is a reflection of what resonates with audiences.
During the press conference for GMA Network’s new series ‘Mga Batang Riles’, Paulate shared his thoughts on the evolution of comedy and the public’s reaction to modern comedians.
“Kumita kasi at kinagat ng tao,” Paulate explained. “Sabihin na natin na si Vice (Ganda) yun. Hindi kasalanan ni Vice ‘yun. Kinagat ng tao eh.”
Paulate, known for his respectful approach to humor, advised comedians to find the right balance in their performances.
“Ang advise ko lang dapat, timplado lang,” he added. “In person, pag nakikita ko si Vice magalang eh. Ang mahirap lang dyina-judge siya ng tao. Minsan, natural lang na magkamali ka. Hindi niya intention na makasakit. Nakikita ko ‘yung mga tao tumatawa. Pag siguro, nararamdaman niya na nasasaktan na ang tao, matututo rin ‘yan. Nangyari rin sa akin ‘yan.”
The award-winning comedian also reflected on how his career began with serious roles before transitioning to comedy, thanks to the encouragement of the late Comedy King, Dolphy.
Following Dolphy’s advice, Paulate became a household name for his roles in iconic films like ‘Mga Anak ni Facifica Falayfay’, ‘Gorio and Tekla’, and ‘Petrang Kabayo’.
Despite the changes in the entertainment industry, Paulate said his brand of humor—based on real-life scenarios—continues to resonate with audiences.
“Feeling ko, blessed lang talaga ako na buhay pa rin (ang uri ng aking comedy). Old school. Kahit sa States, may nagme-message sa akin na kahit madaling araw para maging masaya sila, pinanonood nila ako,” he said.
