Javi shared what his father said to him when he asked his permission to formally enter the world of showbiz. “If you like it, stay. If you don’t, go back to the corporate world,” he shared the words from his dad.

There are just two things that he has to remember always as what his father told him, “Don’t do drugs and don’t get a girl pregnant.”

Aside from his stints on-cam, Javi Benitez is inevitable to be in the business world also. He took up Political Science in college (Santa Clara University in California). His internship was at  at IdeaSpace Philippines, the local start-up incubator by PLDT.

When asked if he will assume his position in his father’s production company, Javi Benitez said he might. “Maybe sooner than later. After all, I am the BP president as listed in the company documents.”

These past few months, it has been reported that Brightlight Productions suffered from financial losses from three of its shows- Sunday Noontime Live/SNL, I Got You, and Sunday Kada which according to Albee has a much higher budget compared Lunch Out Loud/LOL, Rated K, and Oh My Dad that are still airing.

When Javi was asked if he will do a “cost-cutting” revamp when he assumed his position in the production company, he did not say anything.
