I wouldn't have recognized Ronaldo Valdez as Colonel Sanders in the KFC TV commercial had my sister Remi not told me it was he. He looks like such a far cry from when he played the role of a male prostitute in my Balintataw teleplay "Mestizong Quiapo", stage directed by Joey Gosiengfiao and directed for TV by Lupita Concio, when I was 18 and in junior college.
