00:05 [Darren] But what is the bad and the good about being sexy?

00:09 [Darren] Quickly, what is not good and what is good about being perceived?

00:14 [Darren] It's not just perceived, you're really sexy.

00:16 [Joseph] I think this is what Eron said earlier.

00:19 [Joseph] Sometimes you're stereotyped as being just a body,

00:22 [Joseph] with no brain.

00:24 [Darren] That can hurt.

00:25 [Joseph] Yes, yes, yes.

00:26 [Joseph] So I think that's the bad side of being sexy.

00:30 [Joseph] Sometimes people think that's all you can do.

00:33 [Joseph] But on the contrary,

00:35 [Joseph] when you're developing your body,

00:37 [Joseph] you're smart enough to develop that body.

00:40 [Joseph] So, you know, even if you have that kind of hearing,

00:43 [Joseph] part of it is you can still say no.

00:46 [Joseph] I wasn't able to build this kind of physique because

00:48 [Joseph] I think I'm smart enough.

00:50 [Joseph] Because not everyone can build that kind of physique.

00:52 [Darren] I like that idea because it's not just about being sexy.

00:55 [Darren] On the back road discussion,

00:59 [Darren] the bigger discussion,

01:01 [Darren] showbiz, when you're told you're an artist,

01:04 [Darren] you're just an artist.

01:05 [Darren] I react to that because

01:07 [Darren] the life of an artist is very difficult.

01:09 [Joseph] That's true.

01:10 [Darren] You're just an artist.

01:12 [Darren] Your job is easy.

01:13 [Darren] You just cry, laugh, and look good.

01:16 [Darren] When in fact, it's a job.

01:18 [Darren] It's a decent job.

01:20 [Darren] And it's not easy.

01:22 [Darren] You, Aaron.

01:23 [Darren] When it comes to the discussion about

01:26 [Darren] what's bad and good about being sexy.

01:28 [Aaron] Actually, it's almost the same as Luke's.

01:30 [Aaron] Because what they do is,

01:32 [Aaron] for example, I'm naked.

01:34 [Aaron] Then they say, "Aaron, that's just how it is."

01:36 [Aaron] "It's just being naked."

01:37 [Aaron] But Luke's right.

01:39 [Aaron] I also molded my body to be confident, of course.

01:45 [Aaron] And of course, there are things that

01:49 [Aaron] the bashers are just there.

01:51 [Aaron] And at the end of the day,

01:53 [Aaron] you know that it's not just about your body.

01:56 [Aaron] It's not just to fantasize or what.

02:01 [Aaron] This is what I want.

02:03 [Aaron] And of course, at the end of the day, you're getting older.

02:05 [Aaron] You want to build your confidence in yourself.

02:08 [Darren] Again, I say I have a story.

02:10 [Darren] I mean, beneath the body, I have a soul.

02:12 [Darren] I have a story.

02:13 [Darren] I have pain.

02:14 [Darren] I have joy.

02:16 [Darren] But I saw your latest pictorial.

02:18 [Darren] You're really that comfortable with your body?

02:22 [Darren] I saw that pictorial.

02:24 [Darren] What was it?

02:26 [Alex] That was my birthday shoot.

02:28 [Darren] But when you were standing,

02:30 [Darren] you know, this is my friend.

02:32 [Darren] When you were standing,

02:34 [Darren] you were wearing a robe.

02:36 [Darren] And you were talking.

02:37 [Darren] It's like nothing happened.

02:39 [Alex] It's like nothing happened here, but

02:41 [Alex] I was looking down.

02:42 [Alex] I was trying to secure it because there might be a bump.

02:44 [Darren] Oh, okay.

02:45 [Alex] I took off my clothes, but I had to secure this side.

02:49 [Darren] I noticed that.

02:50 [Alex] I was showing the tattoo.

02:52 [Darren] The tattoo.

02:53 [Darren] I noticed that you were wearing a waistcoat.

02:56 [Darren] You're not, as models,

02:59 [Darren] don't you guys feel commercialized?

03:02 [Darren] Don't you feel, for lack of a better word,

03:05 [Darren] commodified?

03:07 [Darren] You're like a commodity.

03:09 [Darren] Not really.

03:10 [Alex] No, not really.

03:11 [Alex] I just put it on for fun.

03:12 [Alex] I'm like, "Go more. Put more."

03:14 [Darren] Do you know the people there?

03:15 [Alex] I know them. I'm comfortable there.

03:17 [Darren] That's important.

03:18 [Darren] When you're putting on oil, you're not being forced.

03:23 [Alex] I'm dancing.

03:24 [Darren] Correct.

03:25 [Alex] I'm dancing to make it lighter.

03:27 [Darren] Right.

03:28 [Alex] As long as you feel that you're not being exploited or what,

03:31 [Alex] you don't need to be.

03:32 [Darren] When do you know that you're being exploited?

03:34 [Alex] Maybe when it's obvious that there's a...

03:39 [Darren] Oh, okay.

03:40 [Darren] You would know.

03:41 [Alex] I know, but I don't want to name it.

03:43 [Alex] During a movie, but that's okay.

03:46 [Darren] Without having to name names, you already said that.

03:48 [Darren] In a movie, what happened?

03:50 [Alex] It's like, "Uncle Boy, the plaster. I need to put on plaster."

03:54 [Darren] Okay.

03:55 [Darren] The kids, the mothers, we're talking about,

03:57 [Darren] the ones who are in the cells, okay.

03:58 [Alex] I need to put on plaster.

03:59 [Darren] Sometimes, in movies, you need to put on plaster.

04:00 [Darren] And then what happened?

04:01 [Alex] I was just a cameo in that movie.

04:03 [Alex] Then, I was looked for.

04:06 [Alex] And then, when he came in, he said,

04:09 [Alex] "Why are they putting that? I'll put that on."

04:11 [Darren] Oh.

04:12 [Alex] Then, I said, "Okay."

04:13 [Alex] Then, you feel like there's something, but I didn't get it.

04:16 [Alex] I was too young.

04:17 [Alex] And of course, in our industry,

04:19 [Alex] you might say, "Oh, this is art."

04:20 [Darren] But looking back, you feel like you were abused.

04:23 [Alex] That time.

04:24 [Darren] Okay, alright. I get that.

04:25 [Darren] Because, the lesson there,

04:27 [Darren] when young artists go through this,

04:29 [Darren] say no.

04:30 [Darren] And say it, right?

04:32 [Darren] Say, "Wait a minute." Right?
