January 11 ------ Sparkle heartthrob Michael Sager is out to prove to the world that he is one of the newest Kapuso leading men to watch for. Michael is taking on a big challenge being paired with Star of the New Gen Jillian Ward in the hotly-anticipated GMA Prime series My Ilonggo Girl, which will air beginning January 13.
During the panel interview at the My Ilonggo Girl grand media conference held at Luxent Hotel on January 9, the Sparkle actor told the press that Jill really inspires him to improve in his craft. He said, “Well with Jillian po and being her leading man in this show, I promised to my managers na sinasabi ko na I will give it my all, I will really work hard, because Jillian Ward is Jillian Ward. And again, talagang I really look up to her, I idolize her and tell her that she inspires me in my craft.” “Iba 'yung maka-eksena ka and iba 'yung titigan mo. So, I want to improve para hopefully this partnership will last and it will be a good future.”
The 21-year-old promising actor also shared in his exclusive chat with GMANetwork.com how he handles the pressure and expectation as the lead of a primetime series. “The pressure will always be there, kumbaga it's important for me to be humble and remain grounded. That's why I'm very thankful and grateful. I don't take all of this for granted,” Michael reiterated. He continued, “What's important lang is that pressure, I turn it to good pressure. I mean there's always pressure that will always help you drive and reach for higher goals. Kasi nga once you climb a mountain, climb a higher one. Kaya itong pressure na 'to, step up. I want to climb this mountain and hopefully climb higher mountains.”
