00:00 [MUSIC PLAYING]
00:05 And welcome back to GNA.
00:09 Thank you.
00:10 It's so nice to be back.
00:13 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
00:17 It's been a while, but it's nice to be back.
00:20 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
00:26 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
00:35 Yeah, I was so young when that all happened.
00:37 So--
00:38 Definitely.
00:39 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
00:40 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
00:45 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
00:46 From doing teeny bopper shows, doing
00:51 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH] then transitioning to bringing out
00:54 my acting skills, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:00 So many fond memories of shooting
01:01 long nights in the studio.
01:03 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:11 Yes, you know, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:14 And we're very, very grateful for the warm welcome
01:17 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:27 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:38 How do you feel about that?
01:40 Of course, again, we're just so grateful.
01:43 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:56 So we're happy to have gained more viewers.
02:00 We're happy to have gained a bigger family.
02:03 So we're very, very happy and grateful.
02:07 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
02:25 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
02:34 But the thing about Showtime is, as a family,
02:37 we know that we will never give up
02:40 in trying to find ways to make our Madlang people happy.
02:44 And we're just so grateful that every time a door closes,
02:49 there's always someone to open a new door for us.
02:51 And this time, it was GTV.
02:53 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
02:55 Because it came at the perfect time.
02:57 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:06 And not only from the GTV and GMA family,
03:10 but even from the viewers of GTV and GMA,
03:14 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:16 We read the comments.
03:18 I personally read the comments.
03:20 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:29 I would never have thought the day would come that Showtime
03:34 would be airing on GTV.
03:39 Never crossed my mind.
03:41 I never thought that we would be able to say
03:43 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:48 Although I knew that I would always have the opportunity
03:51 to work with GMA again.
03:52 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:58 But having the whole Showtime family,
04:01 it was such a pleasant surprise.
04:05 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:09 Because there's a big divide.
04:11 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:17 The network, the TV war is over.
04:19 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:23 Wow, this really is making history.
04:28 What a time for television.
04:34 This really would have been unheard of 10 years ago.
04:38 So we made history, and I'm very happy to be part of this.
04:41 And you're part of it?
04:42 Yeah.
04:44 And let's talk about personal stuff.
04:46 Yeah, sure.
04:48 Let's talk about you being a wife and a mom.
04:52 Of course, to Dahlia.
04:54 To Erwin.
04:56 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
05:00 Thank you.
05:02 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
05:03 Becoming a wife and becoming a mother,
05:08 it really taught me to slow down.
05:14 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
05:20 Even more so, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
05:23 I learned that it's time also to prioritize my own family.
05:28 And that's when I learned to slow down and cherish
05:31 each and every moment I will spend with my family.
05:34 How are you as a mom?
05:35 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
05:41 Hands on.
05:42 I'm a very hands on mom.
05:43 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
05:54 But I'm very much enjoying this whole experience
05:58 as a first time mom.
06:00 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
06:01 And [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH] every moment.
06:03 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
06:07 You really have to learn on your own.
06:09 You learn on your own.
06:10 And I also believe that each mother
06:13 has their own unique and personal journey of motherhood.
06:17 So [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
06:19 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
06:22 So we all have our own unique journey.
06:25 What is the toughest thing that you
06:27 have to go through as a mom?
06:29 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
06:30 It's an everyday challenge becoming a mother.
06:33 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
06:35 And you know what?
06:36 It doesn't stop.
06:38 That's the beauty of motherhood.
06:40 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
06:41 And each year that goes by, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
06:46 But you know what?
06:48 No matter how hard it gets, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
06:57 Let's see.
06:59 If it happens, of course, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
07:07 Of course.
07:08 Of course.
07:09 Of course, Erwann.
07:10 And of course, Erwann.
07:11 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
07:13 How do you find time [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
07:17 I think that's also one of the learnings of the pandemic.
07:19 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
07:22 Appreciate [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
07:24 So we really value that time.
07:26 We make sure that [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
07:31 We always make sure that we have time.
07:34 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
07:34 We're both workaholic.
07:36 We both have our own different worlds
07:38 when it comes to work.
07:39 But this time, we made sure, when we became parents as well,
07:44 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
07:47 So actively, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
07:50 And we really make time.
07:52 OK, so for this month, will we go on a family vacation?
07:55 Or in the next--
07:56 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
07:58 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
08:01 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
08:03 It's family.
08:04 And I'm sure, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
08:12 And also, he was growing at the same time
08:14 in his own personal career.
08:16 He started his own production company.
08:19 And he was just recently awarded by the James Beard Foundation
08:24 in Chicago for his work online.
08:28 So he's also growing in his field of work.
08:32 So [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH] because with now,
08:36 I think we've been able to perfect the perfect time
08:41 or time management.
08:42 We've been able to perfect time management.
08:45 Let's go to your sister.
08:46 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
08:48 Yes.
08:48 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
08:51 Actually, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
08:53 Actively, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
08:56 Thank you, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
09:01 She really deserves it.
09:02 She's a brilliant actress.
09:04 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
09:10 Definitely.
09:10 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
09:14 It's always about finding the right project.
09:16 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
09:18 So we're just waiting.
09:20 But [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH] how was it, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
09:23 How was the announcement?
09:26 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
09:27 Every time people would ask me, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
09:32 Work.
09:33 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
09:36 Thank you, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
09:37 I'm so grateful as well to GMA because they really
09:40 welcomed her with open arms as well when she came--
09:43 when she became [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH] and gave her
09:45 such amazing projects.
09:47 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
09:52 Why not?
09:53 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
09:54 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
09:58 You have aged gracefully.
09:59 Wow.
10:00 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
10:02 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
10:03 Thank you, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
10:05 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
10:07 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
10:08 Stay happy.
10:10 I think [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
10:13 Stay happy.
10:14 Of course, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
10:18 Exercise if you can.
10:20 Drink lots of water.
10:22 But I think the key to staying young and happy--
10:27 I mean, staying young and fresh is being happy.
10:30 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
10:32 No, you have to tell me.
10:33 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
10:36 What do I actually do?
10:38 Yeah, like--
10:40 Just make sure to remove your makeup every night
10:43 before going to sleep.
10:44 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
10:46 Yes.
10:47 And one thing that I wish that I learned a long time ago
10:50 is sunscreen.
10:52 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
10:58 Sunscreen is one thing I wish I started earlier.
11:02 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
11:04 If I only do.
11:06 I have to ask you this.
11:07 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
11:17 Yes.
11:17 So I was in New York for the Tiffany event.
11:23 And I was shopping in Soho.
11:27 And [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
11:30 Can I guess what your job is?
11:33 So yeah, sure.
11:35 Why not?
11:36 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
11:37 And then that's how that interview--
11:38 it was very organic.
11:40 It wasn't planned.
11:42 And that's how that interview happened.
11:44 I didn't know also that it would blow up on TikTok like it did.
11:50 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
11:55 So yeah, it was quite shocking for myself
11:58 also to see that [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
12:00 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
12:04 OK, and [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH] everybody's
12:06 crazy about you when you're singing.
12:08 [LAUGHTER]
12:12 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
12:13 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
12:16 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
12:17 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
12:19 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
12:21 But usually--
12:21 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
12:23 Thank you.
12:23 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
12:25 [LAUGHTER]
12:25 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
12:27 [LAUGHTER]
12:30 But yeah, so I really think at this point--
12:32 and I can't--
12:33 I think to myself, what a wonderful world.
12:35 Oh.
12:36 [MUSIC PLAYING]
12:41 Since this is also airing [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
12:45 I always end the interview by turning the tables around.
12:48 OK.
12:49 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
12:51 OK.
12:52 So Queen Nelson--
12:54 Queen Nelson!
12:55 Do you remember the first time we met each other?
12:58 Oh, yes.
12:59 When was it?
13:01 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
13:02 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
13:04 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
13:07 Then I saw you at Rockwell.
13:09 OK.

13:19 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
13:21 And I cannot forget that.
13:22 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
13:23 Yes.
13:24 And I really cherish that.
13:25 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
13:27 Real.
13:29 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
13:32 I've always loved you.
13:33 Oh, thank you so much.
13:34 And I'd just like to say--
13:35 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
13:45 --for the support, the love, the kindness
13:48 that you have been giving us.
13:49 The past-- has it been a week or two that we've been on GTV?
13:54 So [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
13:56 And we continue to do our best to not only make
13:59 our Madlang people happy, but also our Madlang Kapuso happy.
14:03 So [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
14:05 [MUSIC PLAYING]
14:08 [MUSIC PLAYING]
14:12 [MUSIC PLAYING]
14:16 [MUSIC PLAYING]
