“Chubby is the new DJ.” This is the introduction of the official Facebook page of Janine Royo – Yanuario, more popularly known as Ate Jha-Jha is currently taking Tacloban City by storm. Not literally, but in a good way as she shares her positivity and contagious laughter.
COLORFUL ATE JHA-JHA. That’s how she describes her personality and her style of hosting.
MNLToday.ph had a chance to get to know more about Ate Jha-Jha during previous events handled by Themeactive, Inc. in Tacloban City. Have a closer look and learn a thing or two from from the 27-year old DJ Ate Jha-Jha.
How long have you been a DJ for MOR Tacloban?
I have been a DJ for more than 2 years but before, I am also connected to media as a TV news reporter. But before that, I was also a building administrator in an outsource company here in Leyte.
What gave you the opportunity to try out as a DJ
I just saw an ad on TV and I tried it out. I actually had my OJT in the same company so it felt like going back home.
When did you know that you have a caling to become a DJ?
Since birth (laugh out loud). I am really talkative ever since I was a kid. I grew up imitating hosts and newscasters on TV, that’s why I am that confident in public speaking. It also helps that I am very confident with who I am and I have no problem being the center of joke. I am just a jolly person.
Of course, number one requirement of being a DJ is to have a beautiful voice. What can you say about your voice? What do you think is/are the reason/s why your listens and fans fell in love with your voice?
-I guess. I have a distinct voice. Yung boses na fun pero sweet. Yung kalog pero formal. Medyo contradicting ba? I think people listen because I’m not boring. My program in the radio requires my positive and jolly attitude that’s why I use my voice as a reflection and it’s not hard ,kasi ganun naman talaga ako in reality.
Any plans of trying out being a DJ to other key cities? Like Cebu or even in Manila and establish a bigger fan base?
If given the chance, I would love to grab it.
BEAUTIFUL INSIDE OUT. That’s Ate Jha-Jha for her friends and followers as one of the loveable DJs of MOR Tacloban.
Message to your fans.
Thank you so much guys for always believing in me. Please stay in love with me. SS po tayo.
