Nyoy mum on Nina’s sexy magazine cover

Singer and theater actor Nyoy Volante is mum about the recent sexy magazine cover featuring  ex-girlfriend Nina.

“I really can’t say anything about it. Lahat naman tayo may ginagawa para sa mga kanya-kanya nating career. I’m sure whatever it is, it is something that she wants, something na napag-isipan ng mabuti. So, sa tingin ko okay lang iyon,” Nyoy said in an interview at the press conference of the musical play “Rock of Ages” on Wednesday, June 6.

Nyoy is busy rehearsing for the play together with Vina Morales, Mig Ayesa, Jett Pangan and Aiza Seguerra. 

Thus, he hasn’t seen Nina’s burlesque-themed cover photo for Playboy’s June issue.

He hasn’t seen it

“Hindi ko pa talaga siya nakikita. I’ve been very busy, hindi rin ako ang publication guy na nagsusubaybay. Kapag may pagkakataon, syempre you get to read or see, pero hindi ako (regular) subscriber. Nagkataon lang na hindi,” he said.

Is posing for a men’s magazine a wise move on Nina’s part?

“In cases like this, you can just wish best for anyone who engages in anything for their career. Kung ano man ang move na iyon or kung ano man ang dahilan, let’s just hope na talagang it improves someone’s career or character,” Nyoy said.

He added, “Let’s always pray na lahat ng pasukin ng mga kasamahan natin sa industriya ay mapabuti.”

Theater before recording

Most people know Nyoy as a singer rather than a theatre actor, but he actually started in theatre before he became a recording artist. Nyoy has also starred in seven plays, namely “Dream Girls,” “Legally Blonde,” “Hairspray” and “In the Heights.”

“I love it definitely. What a lot people don’t know is that theatre muna ako before ako naging recording artist. Hindi lang alam ng marami. Akala nila, when I did Hairspray, akala nila iyon ang unang sabak ko. I’ve always loved theatre,” Nyoy said.

Nyoy is proud of  “Rock of Ages,” which will also feature `80s hits such as “Don’t Stop Believin,” “I Want to Know What Love Is” and “We Built This City.”

“This is really fun. One of the funniest musicals na nagawa ko. Nakakatawa siya. I wouldn’t have expected na ganito ang kalalabasan if we didn’t rehearse. Noong rehearsal, doon ko lang narealize na it was that funny,” he said.

“Rock of Ages” runs from June 15 to July 8 at the Carlos P. Romulo Theatre at the RCBC Plaza in Makati.

Tom Cruise in Sexy W Magazine Shoot

Actor Tom Cruise is gearing up for his debut as a hot rock star in “Rock of Ages,” gracing the June cover of W Magazine and talking about making the musical.

“I needed to find out if I could really sing!” Cruise told the magazine. “Ron [Anderson, formerly a vocal coach for Axl Rose] came in and worked with me. And then I had to learn how to play guitar. I’m very good at air guitar -- and air drums -- but I had never played an actual guitar.”

As a kid, did Tom sing around the house? “You know what? I did the scene from ‘Risky Business’ around the house. I would sing Bob Seger -- my mother worked, my sisters were out, and I’d turn the music up. I learned how to dance watching ‘Soul Train.’ I noticed that if a guy could dance, he’d get a lot of attention and girls would want to dance with him. I worked very hard at imitating those moves.”

As for signing on to do “Rock of Ages,” Cruise credited wife Katie Holmes and daughter, Suri. “Kate loves musicals. She sings and dances, and we kind of went through the history of musicals together. And Suri loved ‘Hairspray.’ I thought Adam Shankman did a great job directing the movie, so I arranged to meet him and said, ‘Where’s our musical?’ He came back and said, ‘Rock of Ages.’ We went and saw it in L.A., and for me… I didn’t know how to play the character like that. I had to find my own Stacee Jaxx.”

Cruise also recently gave an in-depth interview with Playboy magazine -- and said this about plastic surgery. “I haven’t, and I never would.”
