The actor shared that he has always liked dancing since his younger days.
“I started dancing nu’ng high school ako,” he said.
“Pero actually kinder pa lang ako, gusto ko nang magsayaw sa graduation. Ang istorya nu’n, 'di ako sinasali kasi makulit akong bata. So ang panakot, 'di ako isasali. Ang ginawa ko, umakyat ako ng bakod. S’yempre takot na takot ang maestra ko, (sabi niya) ‘Hoy, bumaba ka diyan,’” he recalled.
Joshua went viral on TikTok after he posted his dance cover of Chalie Boy’s “Thick Fine Woman.” The video had 20 million views and 4 million likes a day after it was uploaded.
