If you really think about it, Luis Manzano is the epitome of all things wrong in our culture. Vaguely attractive, vaguely white dude who talks for a living? He’s everything our generation is built to hate, but in my humble, frankly also irrelevant opinion, he’s not hated enough.
The last time Luis was relevant was 2009 when he played a gay man in the Olivia Lamasan classic, In My Life. I’d like to say it was all downhill from there but that’s not exactly true. Luis had his moments. He was a defining part of the MYX generation’s childhood. During bouts of absolute disgust for this asshat, I get flashbacks to his immensely funny, just this side of lovable fake rift with also then-VJ Nikki Gil, and second guess if I actually do hate him or if I’m just a millennial.
But then you realize that nowadays, Manzano’s whole career depends purely on the beautiful, much more successful women he’s gotten “lucky” with. He’s got an Angel, a Jennelyn, and some other starlet-shaped notches on his bed and it really does make you ask the question: how big is this dude’s dick?
I mean, what’s the appeal?
When was the last time you saw Manzano on the news for something that doesn’t involve some actress he’s fucking? I hate to be the person who flashes the “Oedipal Complex” card but his mother is Vilma Santos and even she can tell you that there’s no such thing as miracles.
He peddles his mediocre skills through pointless, let’s-make-the-masses-stupider, bile-inducing game show adaptations, and fools you into thinking he has a sense of humor through his meme-filled Instagram account. Motherfucker.
I mean?????
To be honest, I’m not entirely sure where this all-encompassing abhorrence for Manzano comes from. Maybe it’s because he’s a man-child who’s managed to Taylor Swift his way into something that resembles success. Maybe it’s because he has managed to keep everyone on their toes by publicly romancing women left and right, much to the dismay and demise of each of those womens’ individual careers. Maybe it’s because he probably has a Google alert for “FHM’s Sexiest Women Alive.”
Maybe it’s because he’s talentless and crude. Maybe I just like being an asshole to assholes. Whatever. I mean, how about you? What are you to say to that?
