Celio "Celine" Santos Celine

Celine, 34, is a homosexual stand-up comedian who is diagnosed with throat cancer. He uses a balahura style of comedy during his performances. (The balahura style is vulgar way to get the audience to laugh, whereas the stand-up comedian makes fun of a specific audience/s and a lot of adult humour is also included.) Both his parents are deceased and his older sibling resides in Canada with her family. He idolizes the famous stand-up comedian Vice Ganda. His dream is to perform on the biggest stage in the metro alongside his idol, Vice Ganda.
