00:00 Sofia Pablo made her debut.
00:03 Sofia went to Taiwan for her pre-debut photoshoot, which she arranged herself.
00:09 How does Sofia feel now that her debut is coming?
00:14 Find out here in Kapuso Insider.
00:16 In an exclusive interview, Sofia admitted that she was a little nervous
00:29 because she knew what debut meant to many people.
00:32 Now, I'm nervous and excited.
00:37 I'm more excited but nervous because it's a common perception of people
00:43 that when you're 18, you need to make a big change.
00:47 Ever since I was 16, I planned it.
00:51 I planned it one by one.
00:52 This is the gown I want,
00:54 this is the vibe I want of the whole venue,
00:57 this is the food I want, I want it to be aligned with the theme.
01:01 Even my pre-debut photoshoot, after I posted my 17th birthday shoot,
01:06 I planned it right away.
01:09 This is my pre-debut, this is what I want.
01:11 For Sofia's debut, her idol, the Filipino boy band, The Alamat,
01:15 will be the one to start the celebration.
01:17 The surprise for my debut, not just for the audience,
01:23 but for the guests who will be there, The Alamat will be the one to open the show.
01:28 I told my mom that I'm okay even if no one performs,
01:32 as long as The Alamat is there.
01:35 So I told her that we need to contact them.
01:39 It was easier because Tomas, one of the members, is my friend.
01:43 Even way before, years before, he was my friend.
01:47 So it was easier to contact them.
01:50 We contacted Director JP, we reached out to Viva.
01:54 "How much will they pay if they sing in the debut?"
01:57 So I really paid to perform at The Alamat!
02:02 Because Sofia's debut theme is tropical Hawaiian,
02:05 she changed some parts of the show to fit her personality.
02:10 The 18 roses, it's not gonna be 18 roses, it's gonna be 18 flowers.
02:16 I won't do the traditional roses, just the musical ones.
02:24 The 18 roses are all 18 TikTok dances.
02:28 So yes, all 18 roses will do TikTok.
02:31 So as early as now, I didn't decide that we'll do this.
02:37 I asked all 18 roses what they want for TikTok.
02:41 Because they'll perform it in front of everyone,
02:44 and they're all my friends.
02:46 So 18 roses are turned into 18 flowers.
02:50 18 flowers, number 1,
02:52 of course, Allen is the first, but he's the last dance.
02:56 Last flower yard.
02:58 And then of course, Daddy.
03:00 Then Vince Maristela, Sean Lucas, Bryce Eusebio, Bruce Roland,
03:06 Ruru Madrid, Mamita, Sir Joey Abaca.
03:10 Mamita will do TikTok!
03:13 And of course, Miguel Tienfelec, my Rose.
03:17 Aside from the 18 flowers, Sofia will also have 18 directors in her debut.
03:22 All of the directors who were Sofia's for her years in Showbiz were invited.
03:26 One last thing that's unique about my debut is that I have 18 directors.
03:32 Yes, I have 18 directors now.
03:35 So hopefully, everyone will align their schedules.
03:40 Hopefully, all 18 directors will go.
03:44 Before Sofia's tropical Hawaiian debut,
03:47 she'll have a celebration on All Out Sundays on April 7.
03:51 Watch out for that, Kapuso!
