Ryan Bang and Lassy attest to Vice Ganda's 'true friendship'

Vice Ganda's co-stars in the upcoming Metro Manila Film Festival entry Beauty and the Bestie are people with whom he has been personally close with for years now.

This includes his real life best friend Coco Martin, Ryan Bang, and comedians MC and Lassy.

Recently, the Ang Probinsyano star revealed his advice to the It's Showtime host regarding his recent feelings of "unhappiness."

During a recent blogger's conference with the other cast members, Ryan shared that he hasn't had a single misunderstanding with his "Mommy Vice."

"Kung gaano kahalaga sa akin ang Mommy ko ganon rin kahalaga sa akin si Vice. Tsaka si Kuya Coco rin, hindi ko siya iniisip na Coco Martin, talagang iniisip ko siya na tunay na Kuya ko," said the Korean star.

Ryan has been very vocal about his closeness with Vice and that he treats the phenomenal box office star as his family in the Philippines.

"Wala po, never kaming nag-away ni Mommy. Never akong nagtampo kahit kanino," said Ryan.

If anything, Ryan shared that he gets nothing but advice from his Mommy, as well as his Kuya Coco.

"Marami silang advice sa buhay like mahalin mo ang trabaho. Kung paano magpahalaga ang nanay sa anak at kuya, ganon rin ang mga advice nila sa akin," Ryan said.

Lassy, meanwhile, couldn't help but become emotional about the amount of help that Vice has given him throughout the years.

"Nararamdaman ko na pamilya kami. Si Vice nakilala ko 'yan 2004. Doon nag-start ang aming friendship. Si MC naman 15 years na kaming mag-best friend. Si Vice ang panganay, si MC medyo panganay rin sakin sa paguugali kasi ako ang matigas ang ulo na parang bata eh. Lahat ng advice tinatanggap ko," he said of Vice and comedian MC who is also their co-star in the Wenn Deramas film.

Lassy shared that he knew Vice even before he was as a big star. "Kaya alam na alam ko kung ano ang buhay niya dati."

The comedian noted that Vice is the type to give back to people whom he has encountered along the way.

"Yes ganon si Vice eh. Ugali niya ang kapag may maganda kang ginawa sa kanya babalikan ka niya. Tanda niya 'yan. Kahit hindi ka humiling alam na alam niya 'yan. Ganon si Vice," he said.

Vice and Coco's MMFF entry Beauty and Bestie will be out in cinemas starting December 25.
