Tiffany - I Saw Him Standing There

Neo de Padua returns to inspire

Neo de Padua popularly known as Kuya E is back in the entertainment scene. He was discovered in 1986.

“Kaya lang hindi pa uso ’yung pangit noon. Hindi pa uso ’yung ganitong itsura kaya hindi tayo siguro nabigyan ng chance,” he shared. “Pero kahit papaano marami tayong nagawa. Meron tayong mga commercials at may mga na-endorso noon.”

Now a successful businessman and motivational celebrity, his is a rags-to-riches story people can learn from. He started working at five years old selling carioca, banana cue and pandesal. He was even a vendor in wet markets in Pasig and ParaƱaque.

Kuya E has combined his knack for speaking and singing on a TV show called “RYTS (Rule Yourself To Success)” which started airing last May 12 on Eagle Broadcasting Corporation Net 25. His first celebrity guest was Lani Misalucha.

“We talked about the back stories of our guests and how they made it in their respective careers,” he explained.

The hour-long talk show is composed of four segments. “All About Success” is a 10 to 12 minute segment on CEOs, business or corporate personalities sharing their success stories. “Shine Bright Like A Diamond” focuses on celebrities. “E-Balance” is on health professionals to shed light on health and wellness concerns. “Tulong Ni Kuya E” is on his charity works.
