MANILA, Philippines – Popular TV host Vice Ganda likes things the way they are. As much as his success already allows him a number of perks, including opting to have his appearance enhanced through surgery, Vice Ganda says he’d rather keep things “all natural.”

“Whatever I have, I want to maintain it. Kung aking babaguhin ang anuman sa mukha o katawan ko eh baka hindi tanggapin ng balana,” said he during a recent press conference for his upcoming concert.

Apparently, the gay comedian is wary of the pitfalls of changing image.

“Accepted nila ako sa ganito kong kaayusan. I have seen other comedians after the makeover at tila hindi ito nakatulong sa kanilang career.”

And he has no plans of getting a sex transplant as well.

“Naku, wala po, wala talaga po akong balak,” said he on the matter.

Vice Ganda admits getting a kick out of hearing people commend him for his looks, including his fashion sense. He is honored to have been featured in the cover of fashion magazine, Preview recently, where he was made up to appear as various icons of fashion and beauty including Imelda Marcos—which received a favorable comment from the latter’s son, Bongbong.

Model Georgina Wilson apparently posted a picture of Vice Ganda’s imitation of Imelda and showed it to the senator.

Vice Ganda said he was delighted when the senator found the picture “elegant.”

Then again, along with success and widespread acceptance is the surge of intrigue.

Just recently, Vice Ganda was alleged to have orchestrated the removal of fellow

comedian Inday Garutay from the roster of artists in a certain comedy bar. Although Inday Garutay himself already denounced the notion, the rumors persist.

But Vice Ganda is rolling with the punches. “Pinagpapasadiyos ko na lang. Kung Iisipin ko pa ang lahat ng mga iyan hindi ko na magagawa ang trabaho ko ng maayos,” he said.

Vice Ganda acknowledged the help of his manager, part-time actor, Ogie Diaz, in keeping him grounded. He admits however, that theirs is a love-hate relationship.

“Hindi naman ako perpektong tao. Ayokong tanggalin sa sarili ko ’yung pagiging tao ko. Gusto ko ’yung totoo kong nararamdaman, dinadama ko talaga ’yun, ayokong itago. Kasi mababaliw ako, eh. ’Pag nainis ako, ie-enjoy ko ’yung pagkainis ko. Sasabihin ko sa kanya (Ogie), ibubunton ko sa kanya ’yung ganoon para healthy na alam niya ’yung grievances ko, alam niya rin kung paano niya ia-adjust, ’yung ganoon.”

The rigors of show business is easy to manage, said Vice Ganda, if you know how to keep things in balance.

He candidly admitted to having an active sex life, even if, he jested, he has to pay for it.

“Umaalis din [the lover], pagkakuha ng bayad,” said he.

Apparently, the “Showtime” mainstay is not keen on having a permanent partner, denouncing possibilities offered by marriage.

“Ay, hindi po mangyayari ‘yan. Kinukumbinse nga ako ni Kris Aquino [to get married] pero ‘di ito kakayanin ng powers ko. Hindi ko talaga carry.”
