Ramon Bautista–the biggest celebrity you’ve never met


He, he, he…I love this guy. He’s an indie filmmaker and now character celebrity. He’s appeared in small-TV show productions, mockumentaries, spoofs (gotta see his David Blaine spoof–Dan Michael), commercials and his own small segments in various TV networks.

And here’s a funny anecdote: My sister saw him in one of the local malls paying his celfone bill. Through the shop window, my sister and her companion beckoned to him that they take a picture with him. Ramon, ever the comedian then motioned that they wait–he’ll finish up with his chores first. When he did, he happily obliged with the photo op. Now, a lot of people didn’t recognize and were wondering why these girls were having their pictures taken with him.

When that was done, they parted ways. And a few minutes later, he was running, asking them to give him a copy of the pics so he could post them in his multiply/friendster/blog.  And this guy has already appeared on TV numerous times when this happened…in a crowded mall (NOTE: In the Philippines, if you appear on TV, it’s a big deal).

Want to know more about Ramon Bautista? Just google him. You can’t miss him. This post barely touches how funny this guy can be. There are blog posts (his and others), streaming videos and photos.
