JOHN PRATS: THE PRINCE OF DANCE

It’s not the height that counts, but the talent. This, John Prats would like to tell detractors who point out that his being uh, vertically-challenged makes him less of an actor to reckon with.

"Look at Al Pacino and Dustin Hoffman. What they lack in height, they compensate in terms of talent. It’s talent that counts," John explains. And he’d like to believe that it’s also this talent that has enabled him to stick around in the business this long. John is on his own and doing fine, thank you.

The matinee idol looks are still there, yes. But they are no longer used solely to melt an enamored girl’s heart in those syrupy movies he used to make.

After all, at 21, John is past the pa-cute stage, and, like all actors who must make a mark on their own, John must move on. He knows he can’t play second fiddle to his leading lady in many a romantic flick or TV show forever.

Besides, the ABS-CBN Star Magic talent already has his hands full. The balancing act alone is enough to keep him gainfully occupied his mind away from temptation. This way, too, he can keep on behaving, and starring in more movies and shows to prove that yes, it’s not the height that counts, but the talent.
