Actor Lester Llansang is now working as a delivery rider.

According to Lester who was once part of the cast of ABS CBN long time running prime time series Ang Probinsyano, he said that he had carefully thought about his decision when he had to leave showbiz.

“Talagang pinag-isipan ko siya nang mabuti. Okay siya. Hindi ganon kalaki ang kinikita. Pero kung masipag ka at talagang raratratin mo ang biyahe araw-araw at dadamihan mo sa isang araw ang biyahe, okay naman siya,”

Told Lester, he already encountered some challenges of being a rider even on his first day.

“’Yung unang booking — sa Antipolo kasi ako nakatira — tapos ‘yung unang pumasok, Marikina lang. So tinanggap ko. Sabi ko, wala ako nung parang bag na malaki. Kasi ‘yung upuan ko hindi stable,”

But when Lester arrived at the place where he was going to pick up the box, he was shocked when he found eight boxes of coffee. He added that it was still raining at that time.

“Napanghinaan ako ng loob kasi hindi pala ganun kadali ‘yung trabaho ng rider,”

However, Lester fortunately managed to get through the ordeal he faced with the help of a guard in the condo unit who gave him a new trash bag as wrapping.

“Nakakatuwa kasi mas nare-realize ko ‘yung mga hirap ng rider na ganoon pala. Kaya pala ‘pag hindi mo na kinukuha ‘yung sukli na limang piso, ganoon sila magpasalamat,”

Meanwhile, Lester admitted that he suffered from depression.

“Dumaan ako sa depression, sa anxiety. Pero hindi ako umamin. Sabi nga ng girlfriend, ‘Aminin mo na lang sa sarili mo na nandiyan ka sa stage na ‘yan’. Pero ayoko siyang tanggapin

“Nanahihik ako ng ilang taon din. Alam mo ‘yung feeling na wala kang silbi, wala kang kwenta, wala kang ginagawa. Umabot ako sa ganun. Pero hindi naman umabot sa gusto kong magpakamatay,”

Lovi Poe penned a statement of gratitude for GMA-7, which has been her mother network for 15 years.

On her Instagram and Twitter accounts, Lovi posted a publicity photo from one of her teleseryes on the Kapuso network, Someone To Watch Over Me.

Lovi’s letter had a tone of farewell and appreciation to the network, despite the fact that she did not indicate that she will be departing GMA-7.

She began her statement by stating that GMA-7 would “remain in his heart.”

Lovi claims that her 15-year stint as Kapuso is no joke, especially because it is where he began his career.

According to the 32-year-old actress, “Hindi po biro ang 15 years. I would like to thank GMA for taking a chance on this unknown dreamer; for believing in me and supporting me all these years. I have utmost respect and gratitude to the network that has given me my roots and a heart full of memories.

“Thank you for planting my dreams. Thank you for giving it time, love and effort to water it.

“Punong puno ng pagmamahal at pasasalamat, Lovi Poe”

An actress from GMA-7 is set to move and sign a contract with ABS-CBN today, September 16.

Based on the teaser posted by ABS-CBN last week, a “precious jewel” found her new home on the Kapamilya network.

The news spread that Lovi will move the station after months of rumors that she will not renew her contract as Kapuso.

It was 2006 when Lovi started showbiz as Kapuso. The first project she did was Bakekang as one of Sunshine Dizon’s children.

She was then given the lead role in an entire season of Love to Love, “Jass Got Lucky.”

Lovi was also a villain in the afternoon teleseryes Kaputol ng Isang Awit (2008) and Little Star (2010), until she starred in the programs Legacy (2012) and Yesterday’s Bride (2012).

In 2013, Lovi’s move to ABS-CBN was also rumored but she chose to renew her contract with GMA-7.

Here she was called “Premiere Actress” by the Kapuso network and was given the opportunity to star in her own prime-time shows such as Akin Pa Rin Ang Bukas (2013), Ang Dalawang Mrs. Real (2014), Beautiful Strangers (2015), Someone To Watch Over Me (2016), and The One That Got Away (2018).

Lovi’s last teleserye on the Kapuso network was Owe My Love with Benjamin Alves. It will air from February to June 2021.
