A sudden twist of fate brought opportunities to Igorot farm worker Jeyrick Sigmaton a.k.a “Carrot Man” from the Mountain Province who became an internet sensation in February after his photo was uploaded by a tourist on social media.
When he was finally identified, the 21-year-old Carrot Man once again set the online world abuzz with several guestings on different shows and the story of his life caught more hearts than he could imagine. Fandom groups popped on social media in support of the photogenic young man such as Jeyrick Sigmaton Global Fanpage, Jeyrick Sigmaton, and Carrot Man among others.
Sigmaton was seen in a number of GMA network programs and when he guested in Wowowin early in March, Sigmaton shared on the show that he had to stop schooling on his first year in high school in order to help his family earn for their living.
He also expressed his desire to continue his schooling so he could better help his family, especially as he is the eldest among seven siblings. Surprisingly, the Wowowin host granted him his wish via a promise that he will support Sigmaton in his quest for education.
The Carrot Man also had some stints on the Banana Sundae show and was also featured in a Korean TV program especially that he has celebrity look-alikes.
Farmer no more?
Presently, the good-looking young man is busy with another life-changing quest – as a new endorser-model for a local clothing brand — Boardwalk; a popular and globally-recognized Social Enterprise of self-actualized people innovating systems and technology for life-changing opportunities.
There’s no doubt about it as Boardwalk looks like it’s putting in a lot of effort to be a real life-changer for the Carrot Man. Word has it that it has even engaged renowned Filipino designer Avel Bacudio to come up with a collection for the internet star. A real wow, right?
After posting a ‘guess who’ on Tuesday via Instagram, Boardwalk released a sneak peek video of the fun shoot with the “one and only Jeyrick “Carrot Man” Sigmaton sporting the new Carrot Man Collection!“
Let’s take that sneak peek!
