  • Personal quotes

    “My biggest regret is I did not get that second chance. Why was I not given that second chance? I deserved that second chance. It’s so unfair. I loved her, and that would never be gone. It’s unfair and it’s so painful that almost two years after the relationship, she still denies me. Before, whenever she calls me, I come to her rescue in a heartbeat. No matter what other people say, Heart’s still different. She’s my first love and I was her first love, so that’s a big factor why I can’t get over her just like that. We’re okay now. We’re friends, but that’s it, purely friendship. Nobody could ever replace her in my heart. She’s been a part of my life and always will be. Our relationship was too ideal that it’s so hard to move on to a new relationship. We were both born on February 14; I thought at that time, we were soul mates.” - On former girlfriend of 1 1/2 years Heart Evangelista & on their failed relationship

    Though he has been having fun with acting, you can catch him at Love to Love: Haunted Love House. Jay-R is a musician through and through. Not content with the success of his album, he plans on establishing his own recording company. Together with his friends, he plans to help other artists crack their way onto the music scene. Jay-R is the most promising male RnB phenomenon that ever hit the local music scene.

    Gaudencio A. Sillona III, popularly known as Jay-R, was born and raised in Los Angeles, California. He was 2nd year college, taking up Computer Engineering, in Devry University in L.A. when he decided to go here and fulfill his dream… to become a singer.

    He was once a part of a group named FI (First Impression). The group consisted of 5 guys namely: Mike Gabriel, Alex Bacani, Jayr Sillona, Jimmy Martinez (who came with Jay-R to Manila) and Owen Amurao. When Mike, Owen and Alex went their separate ways, Jay-R and Jimmy continued the group by adding another talented singer named Kris Cadevida. They would do gigs in Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Michigan.

    Jay-R also belonged to a band that was lead by his Uncle, Robert Sillona. The band was called The Howlers. Being part of his uncle’s band was a huge part in Jay-R’s career… it taught him the ways of the stage!
