Giovanni Mazza (Gio Ceruleo, General Hospital) was insistent that he and Tabyana Ali (Trina Robinson) hit it off like gangbusters from the jump, and Ali can but confirm.
Tabyana Ali On Giovanni Mazza
“He is just like a big golden retriever,” gushed the actress to Soap Opera Digest. “I really do love him and appreciate him and I’m so glad for the friendship that we’re building…
“He is so talented. He has a spark in [his] eyes that just makes me believe that he will go so far in his career. And actually being on set with him, I think he’s a phenomenal actor. He’s so good and he’s so natural. I think that’s one thing that everybody agreed on when we first saw him in person, that he’s so natural and so real.”
The bond between the pair began to solidify the first day that they met — outside of the studio in the lead-up to filming their first scene together.
Recalled the actress: “We met up at a Starbucks and we were supposed to just have coffee or a cute little tea or whatever. And then we ended up just kind of walking around through the mall. I forced him to go shoe-shopping with me and to look at clothes and I thought, ‘He’s gonna be like, ‘Ugh, this girl,” but he ended up enjoying it, I guess…
“We ended up walking and talking some more and getting more food and just hanging out. He told me his life story; I told him my life story. He met my mom at some point and he met some of my friends randomly, as well. They were walking around the town that we were in and they end up clicking! I was like, ‘He’s just a guy that just knows how to charm everybody.’ He’s a really good charmer. He has a lot of charisma. He has rizz, everybody!”
