Fill us in on your background. How were you discovered?
Oh my God, sobrang funny! Ha ha ha! I was out on a gimmick with my friends sa Halo, Mile Long. My friend told me that Robbie Carmona was there. I’ve heard of Direk’s name before pero hindi ko pa siya nakikita. A few moments later, he came up to me at inilawan niya yung mukha ko with his cellphone. Sabi niya, “Wait lang ha. Titingnan lang kita.” Then he asked: “Bakla ka ba o babae?” I told him, “Babae po ako, ’no.” When he said who he was, biglang galang naman ako. After two days, I got a modeling job from him. That was two years ago.
You recently won at a modeling tilt in Korea. Congratulations!
Yes, thank you. I was First Runner Up in the International model of the Year. Ang sarap ng feeling! Sobrang blessed. Isipin mo, 35 candidates, nag-place pa ako. I was not expecting it at all.
