00:00It's so funny when I get asked that question.
00:06It's a good question at laging tinatanong yan sa akin, anong similarities and differences sa iyo at si Nate.
00:11For me, si Nate is actually someone I can really relate to.
00:15And that's my goal. Every character I have, every show I work on, I find what I can relate to.
00:19But with Nate, for some reason, iba yung nagre-resonate sa akin kasi Nate's also in the showbiz industry.
00:25In this world of his, anak siya ng may-ari ng music label.
00:29Which is my mom, right?
00:31So ngayon, I can see his struggles, his passion, his grit, his determination.
00:35But you can also see the dark side of showbiz.
00:37The tough side that na hindi nakikita sa camera na kailangan pagdaanan ng isang aspiring artist.
00:43For me, I really relate to that.
00:45But I also relate to the differences as hindi naman ako pinanganak sa isang showbiz family or showbiz royalty.
00:51So I can really see the difference now and understand na what it's like growing up in one.
00:57So funny eh when I get asked that question.
00:59Hindi pa growing up kasi I was super shy.
01:01Mahihayin lang po ako pag family Christmas parties namin.
01:04I will never dance, I will never sing.
01:06I was never into the performing arts.
01:08But then eventually in school, I took drama classes.
01:10And nag-i-enjoy lang talaga ako.
01:12Nag-i-improve once in a while.
01:14I was part of my school play.
01:15But never in my wildest dreams.
01:16I think na mag-artista ako.
01:18If anything, yung ate ko talaga ang gusto niya ipursue yun.
01:21So nung nangyari na, nabigyan ako ng chance to audition, to try out showbiz or to try out acting.
01:27It was really crazy.
01:28But it was a field, it was an industry that I fell in love with.
01:31For some reason, yung craft really attracted me na sabi ko, kaya ko itong gawin habang buhay.
01:36And it's something that I'm passionate about and I'm so happy to be doing it.
