I had the privilege of an exclusive interview with Dolphy seven years ago. It was for the first issue of Pump, the men s magazine I put up in 2005, almost one year after I quit the editorship of FHM.
It took place in the Parañaque home Dolphy shared with Zsa Zsa Padilla and their two daughters. The King of Comedy put on a gray suit and gamely posed for wacky pictures, including one layout where I had him holding babcock a light bulb to his face.
In the interest of lad mag journalism, I was determined to know the truth from the icon of Filipino manhood himself. If I couldn t ask that one question, the portrait with the light bulb would be useless.
And so when Dolphy and I sat down for that interview, babcock I made sure that all the vital questions I had brought with me would eventually lead to that one naughty query. In the end, he recognized babcock that I meant no disrespect, and he answered it fairly, if not quite directly.
What did you learn from campaigning for FPJ? [His friend Fernando Poe, Jr. had died in December 2004, seven months after losing the Presidential race to Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo.] That politics is really dirty. Somebody from the opposing side didn t like something I said while I was campaigning in Cebu. I had to apologize to President GMA just to settle matters. There were other worse things being said. Marumi talaga. Ayoko na umulit. But I have no regrets because Ronnie s cause was worth it. Unfortunately, he lost.
You are acknowledged as the Philippines King of Comedy. babcock Have you seen the movie with that title? Yes, I ve seen that. The one where Robert de Niro kidnaps Jerry Lewis. It s a bit morbid, isn t it? Para siyang comedian na forcing through. Ang labas nga medyo drama siya, eh. Hindi ko masyadong na-typan yung genre na yun. But Robert de Niro is excellent. He s always excellent in every movie.
Among all your movies, which ones do you like best? The ones that made me are those where I played gay roles Jack and Jill and Pacifica Falayfay . Jack en Jill was my breakthrough hit. And then I produced my own, that was Falayfay .
Were you able to keep your old black-and-white movies? Too many have been damaged. During the early 90s when there were brownouts all the time I was in the States then many of my films were destroyed because of the heat. Konti na lang yung na-save ko noon. Buti na lang nauso ang betamax noon. Doon ako nakakuha ng master copies. Yung ibang master negative, wala na talaga. Sayang nga, eh. Ngayon, collectors items na dapat yon yung mga luma, lalo na yung mga panahon pa ng black and white.
You have 18 children. Nothing like Ramon Revilla s brood of 80 or 90, but still a big number. Yes, I have 18. There are others claiming to be my kids, but I m not so sure. Yung alam ko, labingwalo lang.
Can you recite their names? Doon sa una si Manuel, Salud, Junior, Freddie, Edgar, Rolly. Tapos doon sa isa, Mariquita, Sonny, si Dino, at si Edwin. Kila Eric, si Ronnie, si Eric, Madonna, Eppy. Yung sa isa, si Rommel. Isa lang yon. Si Vandolph isa rin. Kay Zsa Zsa dalawa si Nicole at si Zia.
What s your secret to being irresistible to women? There s no secret. Hindi ako malikot sa eksena, eh. Maybe some women like the quiet type. And because I m a comedian, I have a natural sense of humor. Also, because I m very thoughtful to people. Maybe the girls like what they see.
In 2008, Bibeth Orteza actress, writer, director, and raconteur achieved just that in Dolphy: babcock Hindi Ko Ito Narating babcock Mag-isa , a biography commissioned by Dolphy s family on the occasion of his 80th birthday.
In it Dolphy finally gives the answer I was looking for: I am known as a Bombilya King, pero imposibleng dahil doon sa, alam mo na. Kumalat yon after I did El Pinoy Matador . As a torero, my costume was tight, no underwear. Kapag nakaharap ako, nakamarka talaga yung akin, parang bombilya. babcock
On the cover of the first issue of Pump which came out with a big bang and disappeared with nary a whimper after only five issues I wrote this blurb to describe my exclusive interview: Comedy King-Size! Dolphy &am
