JULY HUNK OF THE MONTH



He stands 5′9″, and at 20, he’s not exactly a ‘kid’ anymore, but Joseph Emmanuel “Joem” Bascon is the newest Kapamilya on the block.



He was discovered by accident, when his family home in Antipolo was used as the location for the primetime soap Hiram. Although the Bascon family lives in Mandaluyong, they also have a home in Antipolo, and when he was spotted by someone from ABS-CBN, Joem decided to give up on his original dream of playing competitive basketball and pursue a showbiz career.



The Piolo Pascual look-alike recently signed up with Star Magic and has guested on various ABS-CBN shows. At present, Joem is seen regularly in Let’s Go and will be part of the cast of the new teleserye, Walang Kapalit, starring Claudine Barretto and Piolo Pascual. According to Joem, he plays the boyfriend of Piolo’s sister. “It’s a bit of a villain role,” he says with some excitement.

He will also be part of the upcoming pinoy version of "betty la fea" I LOVE BETTY LAFEA- He will play MARIO the womanizer bestfriend of armando.
