The actor Juanjo Ballesta has been in the media spotlight since a few months ago the Socialité program confirmed that his whereabouts were unknown. After many rumors and some statements from his parents in which they assured that the actor "was only very focused on his projects," the El Bola actor reappeared on television with a new physical appearance.
The Pasapalabra program was the stage chosen by the actor to show the world his new physical image, since he has been training very hard in recent months and has gained a lot of weight: "I have gained 20 kilos, training and on a diet."
Although the Madrid actor has lived his entire life between cables, spotlights and cameras, he has always been characterized by his closeness, humility and naturalness. On multiple occasions he has been labeled a 'country boy', a title that, far from making him uncomfortable, he wears with pride.
Acting has always been his passion, but when it comes to working with Ballesta, his rings don't fall off with anything. In his recent visit to Lo de Évole, the original from Parla assured that when he is not recording he helps his friends in their different jobs: "My friend Ángel calls me to set up ovens and I go with him, to be bored at home... .'', he assured. Nor was he worried about pitching in during a bad economic period and starting to work in the family business as a marble worker, earning 700 euros a month, which was not bad for him, since he was very tired of the fame and media pressure that his work entailed.
He won the Goya Award for Best New Actor for his role in El Bola at just 13 years old and has admitted on several occasions that fame has surpassed him many times throughout his career, since he considers himself a simple, rural man. and natural in a world full of appearances and excesses: "Fame was great for me, I couldn't go out on the street. I went to the shopping malls and people appeared in the aisles to see me, people followed me, took pictures of me without ask. It was like he wanted to be a normal person and he couldn't be."
We have also been able to see him on television programs that have made us aware of his naughty and fun side, but also his more emotional side. His time at Masterchef Celebrity or Splash! Famosos al agua introduced the actor to a new television audience, as well as showing the most human version of him.
Ballesta is an expert in combining passions, since he has known how to lead a 'double life' for most of his existence, in which the famous film actor and the rural man he carries inside could coexist and even merge to have a great time. good.
The actor does not ask more of life than work, health and family well-being. His other passions: the countryside, hunting, fishing... give him that extra happiness that pushes him to get up every morning, as well as his loved ones and his son, whom he loves with all his strength.
