The actor who plays Sonny Corinthos on General Hospital, Maurice Benard, recently shared his “unsuccessful” modelling days and how driven he was to succeed in the performing business. Maurice became one of the biggest soap drama icons the world has ever seen, despite not ending up on the runways of Milan or Paris. What he says is as follows.
General Hospital Star Maurice Benard Opens Up About His ‘Unsuccessful’ Modeling Days
On his Instagram page, the handsome actor posted a throwback image of one of his early headshots and captioned it, “I saw this photograph and it recalled me of my failed modelling days when I would’ve done anything to be a male model. Life often hits you in the face before handing you a present. The TALENT was ACTING.
It’s interesting to note that Maurice also mentioned Marcus Coloma, his former co-star on General Hospital who was recently fired from the show. He was obviously sending him a very important message at this precise moment. As a result, many of Maurice’s followers and admirers remarked on his picture with the following: “Your gift was raising consciousness of the normalisation of mental health in today’s society. You are constantly in a lovely Condition of Consciousness. This image merely demonstrates how the outside and interior are complementary. I was about ten years old when I first saw you on AMC as “Nico.” You then joined General Hospital as Sonny when I was 16 years old. You have my undying affection. Keep being who you are and never alter.
General Hospital News: Maurice Can Always Try His Hand At Modeling Again
Jon Lindstrom, who plays Maurice on General Hospital, also joked, “Aw yes, you still could! I see a lot of advertisements for laxatives and medications for heartburn that feature frail elderly guys. WE CAN DO THIS!
Maurice could always return to modelling if he decided to take a vacation from performing. Without a shadow of a question, he would excel at it even more the second time!
