Sergio Mayer Mori on 'La Granja VIP': 'My dad doesn't have talent'
Sergio Mayer Mori is one of the favorites on TV Azteca's new reality show, 'La Granja VIP'
Sergio Mayer Mori is establishing himself as one of the most talked-about participants on 'La Granja VIP', not only for his actions on the show, but also for his explosive statements about his personal life and, Especially, his relationship with his father, the actor and former congressman Sergio Mayer.
In a revealing conversation with former wrestler Alberto del Rio, the young singer addressed topics such as talent, discipline, and work in the entertainment industry without filters, which led to controversial statements about his father.
The conversation began with Del Rio highlighting how the reality show could boost Mayer Mori's career. It was when discussing the importance of talent and opportunity that Sergio decided to use his own father as an example.
“For example, and I'm going to say it here: my boss has no talent. I mean, my boss acts very badly, he doesn't sing, he doesn't dance, but he's made a living acting, singing, and dancing his whole life, the bastard… and he's done well,” he stated.
However, far from simply wanting to denigrate him, Mayer Mori nuanced his comment by attributing his father's success to other virtues. “I mean, there are also people like my boss, and I'm telling you: it's not about talent, it's that they're hard workers, they're disciplined, they're professional, and that also takes you far,” he explained.
Alberto del Rio chimed in to mention charisma as a key factor, to which Mayer's are responded with another shocking confession: “My dad… he seems like a sociopath, my dad is incredibly charismatic. And doubt, putting the two together… if you're disciplined, professional, charismatic, and you also have talent, you're screwed if you starve to death, honestly.”
The Father-Son Relationship
After analyzing his father's talent, Sergio Mayer Mori opened a more intimate and painful chapter: his complicated relationship with his father during adolescence. She revealed that they went years without speaking and described Sergio Mayer as “super military and super strict.”
“Honestly, I had problems with my boss for years. My boss and I didn't speak. The guy would come home and watch me watching TV and get pissed off at me: “'Why aren't you rehearsing?',” he recalled. He confessed that at 14, he just wanted to rest and watch TV, but his father's pressure to constantly practice guitar was overwhelming. “I mean, the guy wanted me to be rehearsing 24 hours a day… when he gets mad, you pee your pants, I remember being scared,” he admitted. Despite the tough memories, Mayer Mori demonstrated a more mature and understanding perspective today. He asserted that he now understands that his father's strict behavior stemmed from the desire for him to follow in his footsteps and have the same work ethic. “Today I understand that it's because the guy wanted me to be like him,” he reflected. He even revealed a surprising fact: his father is aware of his own artistic limitations. “He's been doing things for 30 years that he's really not good at, and he knows it, he's told me so.” me.”
