Carlos Yulo lookalike wins in premiere episode of ‘Kalokalike Face 4’

Carlos Yulo lookalike Andres Santos of Marikina City won in the premiere episode of the It's Showtime segment "Kalokalike Face 4" on Monday, September 2. 

For his performance in the segment, Andres did the "Maybe It's Time" TikTok trend. He also showcased the signature poses of Carlos at the recent Olympics.

In an interview with the It's Showtime hosts, when asked about the first time someone noticed he resembled Carlos, he replied: "Nung unang una po 2020 pa po 'yun so kumbaga may mga friends and classmates na po ako na nagsasabi na kamukha ko po talaga si Carlos Yulo."

On how he was able to achieve a body build like Carlos, he shared: "Dati po akong volleyball player and nung nagsimula po 'yung  pandemic nag-gym na po ako so dun na po nagstart na magpaganda ng katawan."

When it comes to his hairstyle, Andres shared that he already has similar hairstyle with Carlos since way back then.

"Dati po ganito na rin po' yung ayos ng buhok ko so wala na akong ginawa sa buhok ko," he said.

How does he feel that people tell him that he looks like the Olympic gymnast? "Nahahappy naman po kasi i-compare naman tayo sa two-time Olympian di ba?" he said.

Andres earned three "Kalokalike" votes from the judges making him the winner for the premiere episode of the segment.

Aside from Andres, Chloe San Jose and Ruru Madrid lookalikes also participated in the Monday episode of the segment.

In an interview in It's Showtime Online U, Andres expressed his happiness to have won the segment and to have provided joy to the audiences.

"Maraming maraming salamat, unang-una sa mga sumusuporta and ayan sobrang saya na nasungkit and na-entertain ko ang ating madlang people," he remarked.
