Craving for respect, Zanjoe Marudo exits "Banana Split"

After a short one-year stint, model-actor Zanjoe Marudo gives up on “Banana Split.” In justifying his decision, the 28-year-old seemingly insinuated that being part of the gag show doesn’t augur well for respectability.

"Gusto kong makuha 'yong respeto ng ibang tao, ng ibang artista, ng mga katrabaho ko,” said he.

To fortify his intent, Marudo signed up to do the very dignified TV adaptation of the pocketbook series titled Martha Cecilia's “Kristine,” where he will be paired with distinguished pin-up beauty Cristine Reyes.

The move, according to Marudo, could benefit him, as it would allow him to further branch out into other aspects of his chosen profession. His dedication is anchored on his earnest desire to uplift his family. The former “Pinoy Big Brother Celebrity Edition” housemate taped his last episode for “Banana Split” on July 27. Prior to “Kristine,” Zanjoe played leading man on “Dyosa” (2008), “Varga” (2008), and “The Wedding” (2009). He recently appeared in the five-episode suspense movie “Cinco.”

What people remember more about Marudo, however, is his recent split with actress-host Mariel Rodriguez, who, quite seemingly, has jumped into the arms of action star Robin Padilla.
