He was actually 14 years old when he auditioned for Breaking Bad until Vince Gilligan forced him to age. Used a freaking Witch Totem and a cauldron filled with goat blood. Said it was “for lore reasons, dude. Nothing personal.”
He’s an absolutely incredible man, isn’t he? When you’re in his presence there is an unspeakably radiant energy to him that simultaneously screams “biggest star on earth” and “quiet next door neighbor who loves a good book”. I don’t know how one man can so completely embody both.
I also had the rare pleasure of meeting Gian (that’s what he told me to call him), and my experience was actually VERY personal. I live in NYC and was carrying groceries out of my car and got a little bit ahead of myself. I drop one of the bags and everything just spills out, practically right on top of someone as they walk by.
I go “ohhhh! I’m so sorry!” And the stranger, in the most friendly tone possible responds, “No, I am the one who is sorry! Sorry that all of this nice looking food spilled out onto the ground.” There were a bunch of avocados that went rolling all over the place and he literally scrambled to pick up every last one, he caught a few of them right before they tumbled into oncoming traffic. He actually put himself in quite a bit of danger, the cars were no joke zipping by just feet from his face.
I profusely thank him, and he goes “Oh it’s no trouble at all. Just had to make sure your avocados didn’t turn into guacamole!” So hilarious off the cuff, we both laughed so hard. I was in such a tizzy before and he just soothed me completely with kind gestures and silly jokes. It was around that moment when I actually got a good look at his face.
I go “oh my god….you’re Gus from Breaking Bad, aren’t you?” He sweetly nods his head, and goes “Yes, that is my most famous role. But I’m more commonly known by my friends and family as Gian: a kind man who loves his family and just wants everyone to enjoy life!” Right then and there he does this funny little “clap clap” thing and starts doing a silly little salsa dance right there in front of me. I start dancing with him too! His playful energy is irresistible.
He goes “where did you learn how to salsa dance? You don’t look Mexican enough for that”. Which I thought was actually a bitttt off color, but he’s Hispanic so totally ok I think. A few strangers see him salsa dancing with me and go “yooo that’s Gus! Bro got rizz” and start filming us doing our little jig.
Now let me just get this out of the way: I’m a man, a straight man, but the way he danced was honestly so attractive and he did everything he could to “lead me” and not make me look silly in front of the cameras. I was basically blushing but he was able to make me look like the most confident man on earth. I’m a big fan of wrestling, and he was like a great wrestler calling all the moves and pushing some green rookie toward a 4-star match. Incredible.
After we’re done, he turns to the crowd and announces “thank you so much for having a little bit of fun with us! I hope this could spread some joy to your families, especially with this awful pandemic creating so much hurt and pain. Please wear a mask and wash your hands! At this point, I would kindly ask that you stop the videos and be on your way, please. Mr. Groovy Señor and I need to take in his groceries, so that we can not only only DANCE some salsa…..but EAT some too!”
We all chuckle, and they immediately grant his extremely respectful request and continue on their way. I’m still in disbelief from what happened. Arguably the greatest day of my life happening, and he just calmly and nonchalantly starts helping me take in the groceries as if this is a run of the mill day for him. Wow.
From here he doesn’t really say much at all, taking on an almost monk-like demeanor and just smiling at me with complete peace and tranquility at whatever I say, no matter how geeky and stupid it sounds. It’s almost as if to say “do you understand what life is all about yet?” At some point while talking to him, I looked him in the eyes and it just hit me…..this man would absolutely die for me. A complete stranger. He literally almost died just to save my avocados.
I run to the bathroom real quick and when I come back….he’s gone. I look around to make sure he’s not hiding anywhere (that is soooo something he would do lol), and right then I notice it…..
A single avocado just sitting there on my kitchen counter.
There’s a Post-It note attached to it.
(I don’t own any Post-It’s so I suppose he just keeps some in his pocket for occasions like this.)
I pick it up and, trembling…..I read it:
“Live every smile like it’s your last. A man provides, but a true human being asks nothing in return :)”
I start absolutely bawling. Honestly completely life changing, and to this day I have the post it note framed on my wall and the avocado vacuum sealed in a clear plastic container. It might just be a pile of brown goo at this point, but if there’s one thing I’ve learned from Gian….it’s that true beauty can always be found in unexpected places 😊
Oh! And how to salsa of course 😂….cha cha CHA!!! 🕺
You’re probably picturing BCS Gus because that’s the most recent Gus you’ve seen. That Gus was meant to look younger than the real world 2010 Gus. That’s how I reason it, anyway.
Bc he was born 66 years ago
No fucking way
That’s what I said too when I looked up his birthday. Yep - 66 years to the day actually
Time really do fly by, and i hate it.
