00:00And welcome to Fast Talk with Boy Abunda.
00:27Live na live na live na live po tayo sa ating mga kasamahan sa Facebook at YouTube.
00:33Maraming salamat sa lahat ng nakikinig po sa DZEB.
00:36Welcome to the program.
00:42Exciting afternoon dahil ang ating guest ngayong hapon is one of the finest actors in Philippine cinema.
00:52Dahil tayo kapuso, please welcome Maricel Laksa.
00:58Maraming maraming salamat.
01:01Kailangan kumusahin ko si Anthony. How is he doing?
01:04He's doing much better. He's back to work.
01:08Nagtatrabaho na?
01:09Yes. Natrabaho na, nag-walking lahat. I mean, that's the only way he will heal.
01:14I know if you're watching, you take good care of yourself.
01:17Yes.
01:18Na-hospital ko si Anthony, baka nagtatakau sila.
01:21Yes. So, he had heart surgery and we were in the hospital for three weeks.
01:26Ngayon, he's recovering. It's been two weeks out of the hospital.
01:30We didn't want to make it public. We just wanted a private time para sa pamilya so that we could heal properly, all of us.
01:38Kasi pag dumadaan sa ganitong challenge sa buhay, kailangan ng supporta ng bawat isa.
01:44Tama.
01:45And so, we went through it quietly and it's the most beautiful thing to go through together.
01:52Tama. Sabi ko nga sa'yo, just before we came in, I totally understand.
01:58Hindi nga yan empathize, co-feel with you.
02:01Because before, I spent a lot of time with Nanay in the hospital.
02:05Gabi-gabi, araw-araw, and what an experience, di ba?
02:09Yes. And ako, araw-araw is a day to be thankful for.
02:14Tama. Gratitude.
02:15The good, the bad, the ugly. Everything is a gift. Every day is a gift.
02:19And everything becomes part of a story.
02:21Yes.
02:22And nothing is ever wasted.
02:23Amen.
02:24Di ba? Okay. Ang ano ko ay, you're not, nag-exit ka na ba sa Lilith Matias?
02:30Well, today is a very sad day sa Matias.
02:33Yes. Di ba?
02:34Madaming nagagalit, madaming naghanap, madaming nagtatanong.
02:39Pero dun po sa lahat ng mga sumosupport na maraming salamat,
02:43let Lady Justice guide you.
02:46Ganda. Maraming talaga ang invested dito sa...
02:51Very invested. Gusto na daw nila magwelga.
02:53Pero ganun po talaga sa buhay, you know,
02:56there is a time and a season for every activity under the heavens.
03:00Tama. Pero bilang isang aktor, paano mo, how do you handle death scenes? Mahirap.
03:10Kung nandun ka kasi sa character mo, at yun ang nangyayari, kailangan mong gampanan.
03:16Marisang, may mga pagkakataon ba in the past, we're not talking about Lilith Matias,
03:19na ni-require ka halimbawa humiga sa kabaong?
03:22Ayun ang hindi ko pa nagagawa at nag-request ako kung pwedeng huwag ko rin gawin.
03:28Oo. May takot, no? Like ako, I cannot deal yet with the concept of death.
03:34Yeah, it's not the takot kasi para sa akin, parang mainit, kulob.
03:40You know, I don't know how I'm going to react to a really small space.
03:44Pero may pamahiin, diba, sa mga shooting?
03:46Hindi ko alam yun.
03:47Yung pamahiin, dapat daw nilalagyan, hindi ko alam kung tao or dummy,
03:52pero it cannot be an empty casket.
03:55Oh, I see.
03:56Naririnig ko yung pamahiin na yun.
03:58Hindi ko alam po yun.
04:00That's a difficult experience for some, for some naman, ordinaryo lamang.
04:05Yes.
04:06Pero may isang eksena akong naalala sa Lilith Matias,
04:09and that was the scene noong dumating ang DNA test.
04:14And we're going to do that scene.
04:17Hindi ko alam yung eksena.
04:19Hindi mo alam.
04:21Ano ba yung lines doon?
04:23Pero hindi, improv lang ito.
04:24I'm your lawyer, and you're about to open yung DNA test,
04:28nagsasabing anak mo nga si Lilith,
04:31tayi ako naman bilang abogado.
04:33And you have to tell me, because you had a scene there,
04:36kung gaano ka-disturb because ang dami-dami mong pagkukulang sa kanya.
04:42Remember, hindi mo siya nabigyan ng oras,
04:45but dahil hindi mo naman talaga alam.
04:47Improv lang. I mean, just a story.
04:49And then we'll talk about it.
04:51Okay?
04:52Four, three, two, one, action!
04:58Oh my God.
05:13Oh my God.
05:17No!
05:19It can't be.
05:20It can't be.
05:28Yes.
05:50I'm sorry, Lilith. I'm sorry. No.
05:55This can't be.
06:08How do I pick up the pieces?
06:20Oh my God.
06:21I'm sorry.
06:26I mean, how do you get into characters so quickly?
06:29Paano yun? You go to the lines? Anong ginagawa?
06:33There's a trigger.
06:35And you said DNA test.
06:39And it opened up a huge door of emotions.
06:45Talaga?
06:46Ano yun? Emotions na galing sayong karanasan?
06:49So nararamdaman mo, there's a DNA because you know the script.
06:52Do you go to the character?
06:54And that's magical.
06:58It's having been there in the story as a tourney mare.
07:05And having gone through the whole set of emotions with everybody involved.
07:10Galing mo.
07:12Ang galing mo.
07:14Congratulations. I'm sure you're going to miss Lilith Matias.
07:17I already miss them.
07:18Every time I have the chance to reach out to them and keep in touch, we always do.
07:24And we really gave each other a lot of tight hugs throughout the journey of being together.
07:32It's not just like another project.
07:37It's really one that I cherish in my heart.
07:41I can feel that.
07:42Mayiba tayo ng usapan.
07:43Labasin muna natin ng Lilith Matias and the DNA test.
07:47It's political season. Direto siyang tanong.
07:50Hindi ba sumagi siya yung isipan o kaya kay Anthony na pumasok sa politika?
07:54No.
07:55Why not?
07:57Because we've seen how we can support people behind the scenes.
08:02And mas effective yun sa tingin ko na nakakatulong ka dahil alam nila na may maganda kang intention
08:10at wala kang ginagawa para sa vested interest mo later on.
08:16I get it.
08:17Pag-usapan natin ang iyong pagiging mommy at manager.
08:20Because you've co-managed Donnie.
08:22Yes.
08:23Tama ba? And perhaps your other children.
08:25But specifically Donnie dahil siya yung I think isa sa pinaka visible among your children.
08:30So bilang co-manager at saka mom, money, how do you handle that?
08:38Sa umpisa pa lang meron kaming kontrata bilang manager niya.
08:44Kayo yung dalawa ng anak mo?
08:45Kami ng kumpanya namin. So we formed the company para lang ma-manage namin ng maayos si Donnie at yung mga anak namin.
08:52It's an official corporation. So there are guidelines and rules of conduct.
08:59May kontrata kami. Klaro dun lahat ng usapan.
09:02Rules of engagement. Ika nga.
09:03Yes.
09:04Ipiniliwanag nyo ito sa inyong mga anak.
09:06Halimbawa lamang sabihin, Ma, huwag muna ako tanggalan ng commission. Kailangan ko bumili.
09:12I mean, is that something that your kids do or we stick to the contract?
09:16We are always flexible. But yung mga bata, they are very clear about those parameters.
09:25Na sila na mismo nagsasabi, you know, this is clear. Hindi na nila kinukwenta yun na parang part pa ng earning nila.
09:33Kasi from the very start, nakahiwalay na yun.
09:36I'm sure napupunta rin sa kanilang iba.
09:39Tsaka sila pa rin nga yung gustong tumulong sa company ng walang bayad.
09:44So it's a family effort.
09:46So that's money. In terms of negotiations, nag-uusap kayo ng halimbawa ni Donnie,
09:51na Ma, I want to do this project. I know it doesn't pay well but it's something that I have to do.
09:55It's a career move and vice versa. Pag may mga career moves, money's not good but ang trabaho ay napakaganda para sa karera.
10:02Ano ang nangyayari? How is it resolved?
10:06It's not all about money.
10:08Never all about money.
10:10I can relate. Pag sinabi yun ni Donnie, ako number one supporter pa ganun.
10:14Love teams.
10:18Of course, halimbawa, Star Magic goes to you and says,
10:21Okay, ito, I'm not talking about Belle, no?
10:24Halimbawa, okay, Belle.
10:26Do you have a say? We like her, we don't like her.
10:29Can we explore?
10:33Parang hindi pa naman kami pumunta sa ganun klaseng kusapan.
10:37No, but halimbawa in terms of image of the boy?
10:40Kasi it's really been Don-Belle for the longest time.
10:45Do you like her?
10:46I am a Don-Belle fan.
10:49You are.
10:50You know, I saw her a couple weeks ago and she came to my classes.
10:55Sometimes during the pandemic, such a sweet, sweet girl.
10:59Labas natin sa love team.
11:01Puntahan natin, kasi may epekto ang private life ng ating mga talents, no?
11:05Nakikialam ba ang mommy, ang management house, doon sa mga halimbawa?
11:10Nabibinig. I mean, Donnie, you have to tell us who you're dating.
11:13Donnie, you have to tell us who you're going out with.
11:15So we manage him, but we don't own him?
11:18That's very clear?
11:20I like that. Can you say that again?
11:22We manage him, but we don't own him.
11:25As a management company and as parents.
11:28Yes.
11:29Ganda.
11:30We're just taking care of him.
11:32We're helping take care of what he has,
11:35so that he can be better at what he's doing to help other people.
11:40What is your biggest problem about Donnie as an artist?
11:44Napakabait niya.
11:46That's a problem.
11:48It's good and bad.
11:50Good and bad.
11:51You always have to be moderate in everything, you know?
11:55Moderation is very good in everything.
11:58The balance that we always look for.
12:00Sa conflict of opinions,
12:04trabaho, mga kaibigan,
12:08paano nire-resolve?
12:10Pag-trabaho, syempre, manager yung masusunod.
12:15You say I'm an artist, pero manager masusunod.
12:18It's about authority, diba?
12:20Okay.
12:21Pagdating sa pagiging magulang,
12:23pagbata yung anak mo, minor,
12:25ang magulang yung masusunod.
12:27Pag-adult na yung anak mo, siya na masusunod.
12:30Pero siya din ang haharap ng responsibilidad
12:32sa consequences ng action niya.
12:34Ganda, ha?
12:36So ang power base, pag minor,
12:38manager, professional.
12:40Minor de edad ka,
12:42ang magulang masusunod.
12:43But now he's an adult.
12:45Are you happy with Donnie's career now?
12:47I'm very happy.
12:49Kasi he's got a good head over his shoulders.
12:53Atsaka ang maganda,
12:54siya yung pagbabalik.
12:56Siya naman yung manager ko.
12:58Siya yung manager mo, Don.
12:59Nakakatuha naman.
13:00Siya yung promotor.
13:01I always consult Donnie
13:03sa mga decisions ko pagdating sa showbiz.
13:05Bakit?
13:06I respect him.
13:08And I trust him, his instincts,
13:11dahil his new blood.
13:13And we have to listen to the young people nowadays.
13:16Tama.
13:17Para mag-move forward tayo together,
13:19the old and the new.
13:20It's a wonderful combination.
13:22And it's a perspective that we need to see.
13:25Di ba? Let's do fast talk.

15:42Maricel, I have another envelope.
15:44This is hypothetical.
15:46Tommy, di gusto ko eh!
15:47Sa loob nito ay isang tanong na kunyari galing kay Donnie.
15:51Anong tanong na ito?
15:53Anong iyong kasagutan?
15:55At kumusta ka bilang Vietnam?
15:58Yan ay malalaman nun natin sa pagbabalik ng Fast Talk with Boy Alvin.
16:08Kami nagbabalik po dito sa Fast Talk with Boy Alvin na
16:12kasama pa rin po natin ang napakahusay na artista
16:16and one of the best people I've met in the world, Maricel.
16:19Aww, that's so sweet. Thank you.
16:21Yes, halimbawa lamang nakatanggap ka ng envelope na yan.
16:24May katanungan mo la kay Donnie.
16:26Sana mababasa ko, right?
16:27Basahin mo.
16:28Malaki naman yung font.
16:29Mom, I'm gonna get married.
16:31Talaga ako.
16:32Yun ang reaction mo?
16:33I don't think he'll ever surprise me like this.
16:36Ah, talaga?
16:37Yeah.
16:38Anong gagawin ni Donnie?
16:39Ay, matagal yan ang pagmumunimunihan.
16:42Baka kasama pa akong mag-choose ng sing-sing.
16:46Ako rin yung pupunta dun para magbayad.
16:49Ako lahat yun.
16:51Pero hindi ito yung tipo na...
16:52Hindi niya ako yung susurprise ng ganito.
16:54Okay.
16:55Kumusta ka bilang Vietnam?
16:57Super loving.
16:59Right, Enrique?
17:01Super loving.
17:02No, kasi kagaya ng pagtrato sa akin nila,
17:05mommy Emma and daddy Donnie,
17:08they never called me their daughter-in-law.
17:11I'm their daughter.
17:13Si Enrique is my son.
17:15Ganda.
17:16From the very first day na I conceived Ella,
17:19I've already prayed for Enrique.
17:21And now he's an answered prayer.
17:23He's my son.
17:24Yeah.
17:25Bilang isang babae at bilang isang aktor,
17:28ano yung iiwanan mong...
17:31yung life philosophy.
17:33Sa iyong mga anak at sa mga batang artista
17:36na nagmamasid sa pag-uusap na ito.
17:38Sana pag nakasama nila ako
17:41or nakapiling nila ako,
17:42na nagkaroon sila ng kahit konting taste of heaven.
17:45Kahit konti lang.
17:47Yun lang.
17:48Ganda.
17:49And that says a lot.
17:52At sana, ispread nila yun.
17:54Kung saan man sila magpunta.
17:56Yung prayer ko palagi sa mga anak ko is,
17:59may you be light to others.
18:01And may the Lord send others to be light to you.
18:07Thank you very much.
18:10Thank you, Manicel.
18:11Kailangan tayo magsayaw.
18:13Hindi tayo nakasayaw.
