00:00What? And suddenly, you're going to get out of here, so you'll hold your hands.
00:07Okay, interesting.
00:09Okay, Mimi.
00:10What? I don't know what to say.
00:12I don't know what to say.
00:16What?
00:17What?
00:18That's great.
00:28And because this show talks about secrets, in your personal life, how do you know when something is best kept
00:37to yourself?
00:38I don't. I'm so open-book.
00:42As in, ask me anything.
00:45I really live by...
00:48The truth sets you free.
00:50And I feel like I'm so careful.
00:54I'm so shy because I'm so honest.
00:57Okay, okay.
00:59I don't have a secret.
01:02I don't think so.
01:04I don't think so.
01:05I don't think so.
01:06I don't think so.
01:06I don't think so.
01:13I don't think so.
01:14I don't think so.
01:15If anyone deserves the version of me or whatever.
01:20But I don't really keep secrets.
01:23So you don't mind if the person you told to tells other people?
01:28So, kapag may sasabihin ako, once sinabi ko na siya sa ibang tao, alam ko na na…
01:34Malalaman na.
01:36Malalaman ng mga tao.
01:37Or like, I make sure na what I say, kaya kong back upan.
01:41Okay.
01:42Or kaya kong, kaya sabihin sa akin sa harapan.
01:45Kaya you said that, you want to talk about it.
01:48Parang ganun.
01:49Yeah, I think it's the same.
01:51Lalo na, kapag nasa showbiz ka, like, medyo sure na ako na, eh, yung sinabi ko sa iyo.
01:55Lalo bas rin.
01:56Lalo bas rin yan.
01:57Kaya nga, sure ako eh.
01:58Sana ginamit niyang tama, though.
02:00Oo nga.
02:01Minsan na iiba pa eh.
02:02Sana tama yung grandma niya.
02:03Minsan na iiba pa eh.
02:04Yan lang yung problem.
02:05May niladagdag pa.
02:07May mga hindi sinama.
02:10Ganun ako, kahit sa private life ko.
02:12I think just, you just have to really be careful lang.
02:14You know, just don't trust anybody.
02:17You know, yun lang.
02:18Just be very wary lang.
02:20Oh.
02:21Well, safe to say, I know the answer na to the next question.
02:23Tatanin ko sana.
02:24Who is more secretive, you or your character?
02:26My character.
02:28Your character.
02:29Yeah.
02:29For you then.
02:30Character.
02:31Your characters.
02:32Yeah.
02:33Kasi hindi talaga kayo.
02:35Ikaw din, Arieke.
02:36You rarely keep secrets?
02:38Um, yeah.
02:40Or like, you just don't hide anything?
02:43Hindi naman.
02:43I don't.
02:44Usually, nasasabi ko.
02:46Especially to the people like I'm close to.
02:48Yeah, nasasabi ko.
02:50Yeah.
02:51Okay.
02:51I think, yeah.
02:53Minsan, dapat.
02:55Parang, there's times na dapat just kept your mouth shut.
02:57But like, you know.
02:58May mag-anin ba kayo?
03:00Parang, after niyong mag-labas, parang halasan.
03:02Minsan, naibah or something.
03:04So, sometimes less talk is less book.
03:06Sorry.
03:06Less, you know.
03:08I don't know.
03:10I only feel that kapag nararamdaman ko na the person's not listening, then ako napapaas.
03:16Sana pala, nanahimu na nabi.
03:17But, it's not coming from, na I regret saying it because it might damage me.
03:24But more of, I feel like he's not listening.
03:26Sana pala, hindi nang nakapakwentuhan.
03:28More of that.
03:29Na parang, I feel, like, you know, parang, ah, napapao-overshare ako.
03:33And I feel like this person's not even listening.
03:35So, I kind of feel a little ashamed.
03:38Sana pala, sana ibang dinaldol ko, ben.
03:41Ganun yung, mas nangagagalin siya.
03:42Fair.
03:42Mas embarrassment for me.
03:44Kaysa sa, I regret saying that,
03:46that might damage my career.
03:48Parang, parang, parang, walang, walang, walang, walang, walang, walang, walang, walang, walang.
03:50Very valid.
03:51Kasi kaya ko talagang, baka pa, yan.
03:52Dali, ano yung sinabi ko?
03:54Hmm.
03:55Anyway.
03:55See, ayan.
03:57Madal-dal, kasi kami, pala, yas, ay.
04:00Yan, dumadal-dal na ako, like, okay.
04:03Okay lang yan.
04:04Well, how similar or different are you to your characters?
04:08Well, wala po akong generational wealth.
04:12Yun yung, biggest difference.
04:13Biggest difference namin ni Kiara.
04:17The generational wealth.
04:20Yun pa lang, dami na namin pinakaiba.
04:23Wala din na mga problema niya.
04:25Thankfully, luckily, yung yaman namin.
04:31Pero character-wise, personality-wise,
04:36pares kaming matapang, eh.
04:38Pares kaming matapang.
04:39Pares kaming matapang sa pag-ibig.
04:41Ayan.
04:42As in, pares kaming fighter sa love.
04:44Pares kaming lover.
04:46Lover girl.
04:47Okay, how about you?
04:48Sa akin, halos lot kasi parang ako talaga, eh.
04:52Pag may problema ko, I just try to make things lightly,
04:55look at the brighter side of things.
04:56Ako si Mr. Positive.
04:58Ayoko mafeel depressed, ayoko mafeel sad.
05:00So, I just try to make myself happy,
05:01or make other people happy,
05:03parang mag-sumaya ko.
05:04Alam mo yun?
05:05Ako yung,
05:06hindi, tara, let's go, tara, enjoy tayo,
05:08kulitan tayo.
05:09You know?
05:11But I think one thing is,
05:13hindi wata kaya mag-secret sa malo sa buhay.
05:16Okay.
05:17That's one thing, one thing.
05:18Parang, siyempre sa unang sa lahat,
05:21hindi ni ma-intidin,
05:22siya yung unang pupunta sa sabihin ko.
05:24Yung secret to.
05:25Alam yun.
05:25True.
05:25Okay, but apart from that.
05:27I think that's one thing.
05:27But of course, siyempre,
05:28baby sa story,
05:30and, you know,
05:30maraming layers and factors.
05:32Wait, kakakak, aminan agad,
05:33wala lang story.
05:34Wala lang story.
05:35Yun na nga.
05:36It's just for the story.
05:37It's just for the story.
05:38So, I think that's just the biggest thing.
05:40Like, kahit ganong man kahirap,
05:43well, eventually,
05:44aami naman eh.
05:45Okay.
05:45But,
05:45So, pang aspects,
05:46I think better,
05:48si Kiara,
05:48kisa sakin.
05:49Like, mas, mas,
05:50I think, mas sweet siya eh.
05:52Hindi ka ma-sweet?
05:54I'm not sweet.
05:55Hindi ka ma-sweet?
05:59Sweet na man ako.
06:01Sweet ako,
06:01super sweet ko.
06:03Basta,
06:03may mga times na mas mabait pa si Kiara,
06:06pero may times din na,
06:09hindi siya kasi mabait.
06:11So,
06:11mas lamang ako eh, Kiara dun.
06:13At is, hindi ako,
06:14I don't know what to do.
06:16I don't know what to do.
06:18Well, after doing this project,
06:21did it change how you look at secrets
06:22and relationships in real life?
06:24No.
06:26No.
06:27Very...
06:30What's my opinion about secrets in relationships?
06:34It's a big no,
06:36in relationships.
06:37That's why we're in a series.
06:40That's why we're in Prague.
06:44That's the secret.
06:45That's the perspective of your perspective.
06:47It's a new one.
06:49It's even more support
06:50because of this show.
06:53How about for you?
06:55That's hard.
06:57Do you think men better left unsaid
06:59than other things?
07:01Depending.
07:03Depending.
07:04There are some situations sometimes
07:06it does work.
07:08If you are Mikoy,
07:12and your true love story
07:14with Chiara and Mikoy,
07:15like that whole thing,
07:16do you want to tell the truth to him?
07:22Yes?
07:24Did you say the truth?
07:25Yeah.
07:26Wow.
07:28You?
07:29As Chiara?
07:30As I say the truth?
07:30Yes.
07:32But...
07:32What do you know?
07:36If...
07:37Because...
07:37It's hard to say
07:38that you don't have a spoiler.
07:40Yeah, that's true.
07:40You know, let's go back
07:41if you don't have a story.
07:43But when you say that,
07:44there's no story.
07:45That's true.
07:46Let's go back.
07:46Let's go back.
07:47The question of this promo
07:48is the ending.
07:50The ending.
07:50The ending.
07:51We can talk about it.
07:53Yeah.
07:53I'm sure we'll do it
07:54once again
07:55with the ending.
07:56The promo ending.
07:57Yeah.
07:57But from what the pepsters
07:59have witnessed just now,
08:01it's kind of intriguing.
08:02Like, you've questioned
08:03Andrea for you as Mikoy.
08:06So, we will definitely
08:07watch out for that.
08:09Now, let's talk about
08:11your career.
08:12I think you touched on this
08:14earlier,
08:15a little bit earlier.
08:16You mentioned love themes.
08:18At this point,
08:19do you still feel the need
08:21to be tied to a screen partner?
08:24Me?
08:25No.
08:26You're a little bit.
08:27You're a little bit.
08:28I have a choice.
08:30I have no choice.
08:32Because I have no choice.
08:33Because I have no choice.
08:34I have no choice.
08:36I have no choice.
08:36But,
08:38I have no choice.
08:38Sometimes, I have no choice.
08:39Because, for the longest
08:41I have no dream.
08:41That's like,
08:42I have a love theme.
08:44Because,
08:45what works,
08:46especially here in the Philippines,
08:48is like,
08:48if you really want to be mainstream
08:49or you want to be so
08:51warm,
08:53or be phenomenal,
08:54you really need to do it.
08:57And,
08:58then,
08:58I realized,
08:59I think it's not for me.
09:02But,
09:03I'm happy.
09:04I'm happy.
09:05I'm happy.
09:05I'm happy.
09:06I'm happy.
09:07I'm happy.
09:08I'm happy.
09:10I'm happy.
09:11I'm happy.
09:11If, for example,
09:12your relationship is good.
09:13It's really fun.
09:14But,
09:15I'm happy.
09:16All of my achievements,
09:18that I'm just happy.
09:19I did it all by myself.
09:21It's different.
09:23It's different.
09:25It's different.
09:26Fulfillment.
09:27It's different.
09:27it's different.
09:28I don't compare.
09:29It's different.
09:30It's different.
09:31It's different.
09:31I just feel like,
09:32this is my path.
09:33And,
09:34I'm happy.
09:36I'm happy.
09:39I'm happy.
09:39I'm happy.
09:40I'm happy.
09:41Both contributed to Hushes.
09:43How about for you?
09:44For me, right now?
09:45No.
09:46At the stage of my career,
09:48you know.
09:49I don't think so.
09:51I've already done everything.
09:53At this point,
09:55with the projects I want to do,
09:57and moving forward,
09:59that's not really my radar.
10:00Yeah.
10:00And,
10:02yeah.
10:02I think,
10:03you know,
10:03you have to evolve,
10:04you know,
10:04as an artist.
10:06And,
10:07so,
10:07you can't just stay the same.
10:09So,
10:10if it's a different love team,
10:12maybe, possibly,
10:13but not really needed.
10:14Anyway.
10:16What are the pros and cons
10:18of the love team?
10:21Um,
10:23well,
10:24pros and cons.
10:26Well,
10:26pros is,
10:27you know each other so well,
10:29it's so easy to...
10:31I'm just selling the TF4
10:33because it's all for me.
10:35Yeah.
10:36TF all?
10:37I don't know.
10:41Yeah.
10:41I mean,
10:41I don't have a big cut
10:42because it's a big cut.
10:44I mean,
10:45there's a cut like that?
10:46that's my experience.
10:47Huh?
10:48That's my experience.
10:49That's my experience.
10:50Like,
10:51if I put together,
10:52it's like,
10:53like,
10:54it's just a cut.
10:55Package deal?
10:56It's just a cut.
10:57Oh,
10:58really?
10:58It's like that.
10:59That's my experience.
11:00I don't know.
11:02That was mine.
11:03I don't know.
11:04It's for you.
11:05I don't know.
11:06It's for you.
11:07It's like,
11:08it's not my experience.
11:09So, happy for you.
11:11Ah,
11:12okay, sorry.
11:12I got caught you.
11:13No, go on.
11:14Pros and cons.
11:15What are the pros and cons?
11:17Um,
11:20my pros,
11:24it's more freedom.
11:26It's more freedom.
11:27No offense,
11:28it's more freedom
11:29to do projects,
11:31to do projects,
11:32to do projects.
11:34That's true.
11:35Like,
11:35it's more versatile than the roles
11:38that offer.
11:40That's it.
11:41That's it.
11:42Of course,
11:42the fans,
11:42the fandom,
11:44which, you know,
11:46yeah.
11:46So, there are a lot of,
11:48um,
11:49levels to it.
11:51Yeah.
11:51Some pros to it,
11:53what I would say is,
11:54you know,
11:55when you get to work with somebody
11:56for so long,
11:56you know each other for,
11:58you know,
11:58so well.
11:59So, it's easy if the scene is a little big,
12:01you know how to carry each other.
12:05Yeah.
12:06You know how to carry each other.
12:07You know how to,
12:08you know,
12:08if you don't feel it,
12:10you know,
12:13you know,
12:13so you can move it.
12:14It makes sense.
12:16You know the level
12:17of the help.
12:18Yes.
12:18It's a deeper level
12:19that only that person
12:22can really bring out
12:23on you,
12:24of you.
12:25So,
12:25it's a different level so.
12:26It's just a different level.
12:27The pros that is,
12:29especially if you partner with the partner,
12:31you're the manager.
12:31You're the partner in real life,
12:33you're the love team,
12:34your partner doesn't work.
12:36It's almost like
12:37every day we have to date.
12:38Yeah.
12:39It's like that.
12:39But with the cons, if you are part of the love team,
12:45when you're in the mood, you have to say,
12:47oh, shit!
12:48I have to say,
12:50but when you're in the mood,
12:53you have to be able to sweep the scene.
12:57Super!
12:58And then you have to be a bit nervous.
13:00Guys, you have to sweep the scene.
13:02Then you have to call the set.
13:07You have to say,
13:08because you didn't realize it.
13:09Oh, I didn't realize it.
13:11So, you have to experience the two.
13:13You have to experience the two.
13:16Because you have to be able to sweep the scene,
13:19so you will hold your hands.
13:24Okay, interesting.
13:26We have to say, Mimi.
13:27What? I don't want to say.
13:29I don't want to say.
13:30I don't want to say.
13:33What?
13:34What?
13:35You're a lot.
13:36Sorry.
13:37Well, about the fans.
13:40Memories bring back.
13:41Memories bring back you.
13:43You really want to say.
13:45What do you call this?
13:47Fans can get really obsessive over love teams.
13:50Super, super.
13:50Do you think that's more of a pro or a con?
13:53Which is, where is it leaning more?
13:55He's just in the middle, I think.
13:57In the middle.
13:58Yeah.
13:58Meron siyang sarili niya talagang benefits.
14:01At meron din talagang, no.
14:05I think, for me,
14:07kasi,
14:08yung siyempre yung constant yung pag-control na masyado na parang,
14:12may buhay ako, tao ako.
14:14Yung part na yun na alam na natin lahat.
14:16Pero yung mga pros is,
14:18talagang andyan sila for you.
14:20Yeah.
14:20No matter what.
14:22Talagang pagtatanggol ka nila,
14:24through sick and sin.
14:26solid yun yung magkaroon ng ganun na fan,
14:29na tao sa buhay mo.
14:32I think,
14:33sobrang,
14:36ayaw ko.
14:37Dama ka na ba?
14:38Dama ka na ba?
14:38Super, super.
14:39Hindi din po kasi ako actually umabot sa point na naging super,
14:43parang,
14:44nagkaroon ako ng super obsessive na
14:48fandom na love team ganun.
14:50I think, hindi ako umabot doon.
14:52Kasi,
14:56hindi din kasi medyo umabot sa peak yung love team ko.
14:59Sa pagkakailala ko.
15:01At least sa stand.
15:02Sa,
15:02parang kukukompare ko sa standards.
15:04Of course, yung pagiging sa Liz Ken,
15:08hindi din po ako umabot doon.
15:09Because, nag-stop din ako ng maagay sa pagla-love team.
15:14Seventeen?
15:15Eighteen?
15:16Yata ako nag-stop mag-love team.
15:18And few projects.
15:19Few projects lang yun.
15:20Maaga-aga.
15:21I think.
15:22Bago ako umabot sa point na yun.
15:25Yeah.
15:25So, I can't say.
15:27Ibang experience sa'yo.
15:29Sa'yo.
15:32Puro nod na lang.
15:34Okay.
15:35Nothing to add.
15:36Nothing to add.
15:37Okay, okay.
15:38That's okay.
15:39Um, so how do you see showbiz now?
15:42And how has your perspective as an actor evolved?
15:47Bago ba sa showbiz industry?
15:49Mmm.
15:50I think for the better.
15:52Definitely.
15:52Working hours.
15:54Um.

16:03Yeah.
16:03Mas open na mga.

16:17Kasi nakikita ko parang,
16:18Teka na nga.
16:18Medyo na lumalay yun na sa, you know, what we see before.

16:52Paano nag-change yung perspective mo as an actor?
16:55With what's happening in showbiz now?
16:57Exciting man.
16:59I think halos at ang sinabi ni...
17:01Ayun.
17:02I think it's exciting.
17:04For...
17:04Especially for people coming into the industry now.
17:07Hindi na may experience yung mga long hours of taping.
17:09Iwanang tulugan.
17:10Tatangkad po sila.
17:11Mas matatangkad talaga eh.
17:13Mas matatangkat talaga.
17:14Yeah, so they have no idea what we had to go through.
17:16Yeah.
17:17And uh...
17:18But you know what?
17:19That's also good training.
17:20For us, so...
17:21Pero oo, sa totoo lang.
17:22Wala din naman ang masyadong gustong bagawin.
17:26Yeah.
17:26Fili ko naging tough cookie talaga ako sa...

18:08Okay.
18:08No comment.
18:09No comment yun.
18:10Sige.
18:10Last 10 minutes ago, binashya ko yun.
18:12Oh sige.
18:13Huwag.
18:13Huwag na natin.
18:15How about you anyway?
18:17I don't know.
18:18I believe everybody has a chance.
18:20Fair true.
18:22As long as they can bring something to the table.
18:26Yeah.
18:26Don't really judge anybody.
18:28Yun lang.
18:29I mean, as long as you can bring something to the table.
18:31You have your own personality.
18:33You bring your own flavor.
18:35Yun lang.
18:36Yun lang.
18:37At the end of the day,
18:38mas naniniwala ako sa if it's meant for you.
18:41It's meant for you.
18:41It's meant for you.
18:42It's meant for you.
18:42So wala naman difference if
18:44nagpila ako,
18:46nagcommit ako,
18:47or kaya nagsend lang ako.
18:49Yeah.
18:49Kasi yung tamang project,
18:50hahanapin ka talaga akong para sa yun, para sa yun.
18:52That's true.
18:53And if you really have the passion for acting,
18:55lalabas yun at magsistay ka talaga sa industry.
18:58Yun lang ginagawa na lang sa Hollywood, diba?
19:00Nagsisend lang din sila ng tapes.
19:02Yeah.
19:02Yeah.
19:02I think, you know,
19:03you just follow what you want
19:06and everything will always fall in the right place.
19:08I think lumalabas din kasi yan,
19:10or it translates on screen
19:12when someone just wants to be an actor or actress
19:14because they want to be famous.
19:15Yeah.
19:16As opposed to...
19:17Yeah.
19:18Well, there's some naman
19:18who just really love acting talaga.
19:20Yeah.
19:20I think that's the difference of being an actor, actress,
19:24an artista.
19:25Yeah.
19:25Para sa amin.
19:26Iba yung may...
19:27So, yun ba may mga...

19:38Isang actress.
