In Thursday’s episode of StarStruck, Elyson de Dios was voted by alumni to be part of this week’s bottom group.
Jackie Rice, who got to act with him in the horror comedy skit ‘Sosyal Mumu,’ noted how they had to retake a couple of scenes because of the sixteen-year-old Cebuano.
“Medyo may kailangan i-improve sa kanya. Napansin ko kay Direk [na] lagi kaming nag-sa-stop, nag-cu-cut dahil hindi niya nagagawa ng tama,” she noted.
Though she saw something lacking in him, Jackie was able to empathize with Elyson.
“Nakita ko 'yung sarili ko sa kanya nung bago ako,” she added.
Jackie, who bagged the Ultimate Female Survivor title in the third season expressed confidence in the young contestant and encouraged him to keep improving himself.
“Alam kong kaya i-improve ['yung skill niya]. Napag-aaralan ang acting,” she said.
