Paulo Avelino has to undergo a body transformation
Kapamilya actor Paulo Avelino flexed the body transformation that he had in 2023 and this received praise from netizens.
Paulo is one of the most versatile actors of his generation. He can give justice to protagonist roles as well as antagonist characters. One of the latest projects he made was the Prime Video series Linlang.
Because of that project, he had to gain weight to make his character more realistic. In November, last year, the actor spoke about what he needed to do for his role in the series with Kim Chiu.
Paulo Avelino shared that he received comments accusing him of not taking of himself already because he gained weight. Little did they know that it was a preparation for his role in the said series in which he had to show a “dad bod” in order to justify what happened to his character.
In an Instagram post on January 3, the actor shared his before and after photo, showcasing his body transformation. “My 2023 in a nutshell. Swipe right,” he wrote in the caption of his post.
In the first photo, Paulo showed the “dad bod” that he had for his role. Then, the second photo was taken after he worked out again and achieved a fitter figure.
In the comment section of his post, Paulo was commended by his fellow celebrities. “The one and only @pauavelino!” actor Jake Cuenca commented while singer-actor Gian Magdangal wrote “Solid!”
Several netizens also showed admiration for Paulo. “Pa-mine kahit alin dyan sa 2 ndi na magiging choosy pa,” Instagram user @imcharbrazil commented.
Meanwhile, aside from Linlang, Paulo Avelino and Kim Chiu will do another series together and this is the Filipino version of the South Korean drama series What’s Wrong with Secretary Kim?
With their onscreen chemistry in their first series together, rumors surfaced linking them romantically in real life. Kim and Paulo haven’t reacted yet to the relationship rumors about them.
