[1:20]First time dito sa GMA 7.
[1:23]Yeah, my gosh. my gosh.
[1:26]Do you see yourself in the future doing television, movies?
[1:30]I'd like to. I I'd love to, but you know, um I mean, right now it's been very theater, you know, on stage stuff. But I'd love to for sure.
[1:40]Yeah, you you start somewhere. Yes. Somebody was telling me, I think it was Ardi, our head writer. Parang nakita ka niyang nakapila sa isang audition. You were in a queue, you were in a line.
[1:50]I auditioned like everybody else.
[1:53]You auditioned like everybody else. Ah sa Unibersidad daw ng Pilipinas. Talaga, hindi mo sinasabi anak ako ni Lea Salonga?
[1:59]Syempre hindi. Why would I I would do that? That idea horrifies me. It does. Hindi natatakot ako. Gagamitin ko 'yun. Gagamitin 'yun ni Tito Boy.
[2:10]Sasabihin ko, you know, I'm related to Lea Salonga. It may save me from dancing or singing, but I'm good. Oh, I'm joking. Hindi mo ginagamit 'yun.
[2:18]That idea horrifies me because it number one, it'll stain my reputation because that's not that that's not the kind of person I am.
[2:27]That's admirable. Thank you. I and I I'd like to believe that I don't need my mother to to get into stuff, you know. I I'd like to believe that I'm I have the chops enough to be able to do it on my own.
[2:39]And I believe you. Thank you. I believe you. But just like a mother, you have that courage.
[2:43]She also doesn't want me to. That's also that. She she very much so is a firm believer in like you don't need to use my name to do this and you shouldn't.
[2:53]This is not a fair question, but uh I want to ask this. What can you do that you can't?
[2:59]What can I do that she can't? I can do Shakespeare.
[3:02]Oh. I can do Shakespeare. Talaga?
[3:05]Can I tell I can tell you a story. So,

[4:02]Can you do it now? Um, I remember it. Let's stand. Yeah. Grabe. Yeah. Oh, God. I can let me see if I remember the sonnet. Um,
[4:12]Yeah. What about the monologue? The monologue? Um Do not think so. You shall not find it so. And God forgive that so much had swayed your Majesty's good thoughts away from me. Okay, let's take it from the start. From the top. The monologue. Okay.
[4:28]Do not think so. You shall not find it so. And God forgive that so much had swayed your Majesty's good thoughts away from me. I will redeem all this on Percy's head.
[4:41]And in the closing of some glorious day, be bold to tell you that I am your son. Where I will wear a garment all in blood and stain my favors in a bloody mask, which washed away shall scour my shame with it.
[4:56]And that shall be the day whenever it lights, that this same child of honor and renown, this gallant Hotspur, this all praised knight. And your unthought of hairy chance to meet. This in the name of God. I promise here. The which, if he be pleased, I shall perform. I do beseech your Majesty may solve the long grown wounds of my intemperance. If not, the end of life cancels all bands. And I will die a hundred thousand deaths. Air break the smallest parcel of this vow.
[5:39]Wow.
[5:43]Wow, I didn't think I had that in me. I didn't think I still remember that. Wow. Thank you. Yeah. Siguro proud na proud ang mommy mo.
[5:52]She's very. I got third in the country for that. Wow. Yeah. I first first in New York. Third in the country.
[6:00]Congratulations. Congratulations. Ito interesado kami malaman. Kumusta si Lea Salonga as a mother?
[6:07]Progressive, progressive. Anong ibig sabihin 'yan? Progressive. Progressive as in Alam mo ba the story of Spring Awakening?
[6:16]A bit. Um, completely not. 19th century.
[6:21]19th century. Right. And the the the show opens with Vendela's mom not telling her how children are how babies are made. My mom I think is the complete opposite of Vendela.
[6:33]Of Vendela's mom, I mean. Like I I think um she's open. She's loving, she's kind. She's one of the most understanding people I've ever known.
[6:47]And you know, I I I really don't think I could have asked for a better mother. And I think that if I was with anybody else that I wouldn't be where I am today. And I wouldn't you know, I wouldn't be able to sing her praises and everything.
[7:05]Is she very protective? Um, yes, but she also knows that I can take care of myself.
[7:13]Right. Napalo ka? Isa, once. Isang beses?
[7:17]I threw I at 2 years old, I threw a shoe on the table and then she pulled me and then 'yun lang, that's it. Never again. Natakot na ako.
[7:26]Oh. So, um, afterwards na I just she didn't have to. All she had to do was look at me like And then that was sorry. I love that. I I love that impression. Can you mimic your mom?
[7:43]Yeah, I'm she knows what to do.
[7:50]I love that. When she likes what you do, what what is that face like?
[7:54]She sees you, you know. Yeah. But like when she's happy, she's beaming. She's beaming when she's happy. You know? And when she's and when she's very emotional or proud, ganito ang mukha. Like
[8:10]I can imagine, I can almost remember a lot of times. Sorry Mama. I'm sorry. Nick, palagay mo, anong namana mo? What did you get from from mom?
[8:33]People tell me that I talk like my mom. Can you tell me? Is it is it so? Yes, a bit. Yeah. People tell me that I talk like my mom. People tell me that I move like her. I don't really see it. People tell me, funnily enough, after I started taking testosterone, people said my mom I I agreed. I started looking more like my mom. As a kid, I looked like talaga my my dad. Uh-huh. But my mom believes like it's following the saying boys look like their moms and girls look like their dads. Okay. So when I was a girl, I looked like my dad and now lalaki ako, I look like her. So, there's that.
[9:05]Okay. Nakikialam ang mom sa pag-ibig, sa love.
[9:12]Ano? Sorry. Have you had a girlfriend? I'm sorry. Oh. Yes. Yes. Uh Yes, I. Is your mom the type who asks a lot of questions? Is your mom the type who says Nic, I want to meet her?
[9:25]No. No. I'm the one who says I want you to meet them. Oh. I've had a I've had boyfriends and whatever and I had girlfriends. Both. Bisexual. Okay. And um
[9:38]Is that how you identify yourself?
[9:41]Yeah. I identify as bisexual. Okay. Up to this very moment. Yeah. I mean I might change. I don't know. Oh that's okay. Non binary.
[9:51]I I am a trans I'm not non I'm not non binary. I am a trans man and but I like boys and girls.
[10:00]Okay. I understand that. And um, you know, whatever. It depends talaga on my relationship with people. Okay. Um With this pansexual crap, you know what? It doesn't matter. No. But that's not, you don't know that. Hindi nakakaunawa, huwag nating pilitin, maiintindihan n'yo po ito, but I because I'm familiar with uh you're you're right. It's not non binary, but yes, you're trans man and uh you are because you can be trans man and pan.
[10:27]Yes. Sexuality and gender have nothing to do with it. Nothing to do with it. A man can like women and a and a and another man of the same gender can like men. Okay. It doesn't make him less of a man.
[10:37]At habang napapag-usapan natin ito, uh, when you identified yourself very clearly to your mom, how did it happen? Ikaw ang nagsabi sa mom or how how was that?
[10:48]Ako ang nagsasabi, my mom. Take me to that moment when you told mom. The morning of 20 maybe 2021 or so, it was a a pandemic.
[11:03]Uh, yes. But she was on a tour in the states. Um the night before I had realized that I was trans. And I had told I went up to her in the morning. Mama, I think I'm trans gender. I'm a trans like And then she was like, okay. Let's take it a step back, you know. Um, you know, she was like, we don't you're very young. Let's not, you know, put any immediate labels right now.
[11:28]Okay.
[11:31]Because you never know, right? Um, you could be non binary, you could be whatever. And I was like, okay, yeah, whatever. Okay. And I ended up going on this journey from non binary, gender fluid. So, mag mag, you know. And then to gender fluid pa, pero prefer ako pag lalaki.
[11:48]Okay. To just pag lalaki. So it really like full circle talaga. Like I think no matter how much you try to deny who you are, you're going to have to come back to it. Kung tama ang pagkaintindi ko, if you identify yourself as a trans man. And then you're panromantic.
[12:03]Ito po 'yung mga taong hindi sila pumapasok sa isang relasyon na walang romans, na walang emosyon. Okay. But that's for that that's for another interview. That you should do with Tito Boy. Teka lang, English, what did you say?
[12:12]You know, I I'm sorry for this. Deling. Yes. That that's okay. Uh it was just interesting to find out how you and mom actually talked about it. Um and now it's clear. You know, take take it easy, take it slow, uh take a few steps backward and let's see what happened. But I remember I think she was a little bit like there was a little bit of a resistance, I think. Because, 'syempre' naman as a parent, you don't want your child to go to go through the hardship, right? And I think she knew that if I went down this road, maraming talaga hardship. Oh. Pero there was a night when, and we were already discussing about taking testosterone, pero we agreed afterwards kasi she didn't want my voice to change too much when I was singing. Um, and I had a breakdown and I was so I don't want to say, I'm trying to word this in a in the best way that I can because it wasn't the kind of thing where like mag tatantrum. Parang it was like I've um I've seen the kind of conversations that you have on the show. So forgive me if I get pretty deep here. Um, like I wanted to die. I wanted to die because I was when you look in the mirror and you see yourself and you're like, I can't just take these boobs off. I can't. I have to go through all this stuff and this not anywhere close to now. I don't and or like my voice doesn't like and no matter what I'll do, I won't be able to have to be seen the way that for who I really am. And you know, and or I won't be able to um to be with certain people because there won't be attracted to the outside when in when in fact the inside is, you know, what matters and the inside is can't come out because of all this semantics of surgery and all these hormones and whatever, which I'm very grateful for now. But I remember, I just remember like I was like, Mama, I can't do this anymore. Like I can't like I can't wait anymore. She held me and she was like, okay, then we'll do it, you know, when when do you want to do it? We'll do it beforehand. And I think that was the best reaction that she could have had. Like talaga just like like, you know, okay. But the top surgery you have to wait because of your recovery and school. And I was like, okay. But hormones, okay. We'll do that because if you can't wait, it's just wait. So, the top surgery finally happened when?
[14:59]Uh September 2nd of of last year.
[15:03]Last year. And then you were ready. Mom was right.
[15:06]Uh yeah. But I I remember she was like she um like you sure she really made And I was like, yes, I'm sure. And I remember even like for a while before taking testosterone, I had talked to other trans guys. I talked to uh Guya Jake. Yes. Guia Jake Zyrus. And I talked to him about like, hey, did you know right away? Like did you ever change your mind? You know, cuz what if I change my mind? I'm like, what what am I going to do? Pero, um, I didn't and neither did they. And you know, them talking I I talking to me, yeah. That was the concern. The changing of the mind. Yeah. Cuz like I'm so I was young. I'm young. And, you know, my my my mind is still developing. I don't know. So, but honestly, I think that I have no regrets in taking testosterone. No regrets at all. And I'm so grateful that my mom is so supportive in letting me do it. And, you know, that she just all she really wants is for me to be happy. And so does my dad.
[16:29]And knowing your heart that that aside from mom, dad, we will support you. Yeah. Because there's so much um outside of genders and sexual orientations, you know, we're talking about humanity here. Yeah. Uh um, wonderful story. Wonderful story of, you know, a young son and a mother. Tamang-tama ang Spring Awakening.
[16:56]Sobra, sobra. Sobra. Parang ah parang alam n'yo kung bakit sinasabi ko na tamang-tama because that's Spring Awakening is basically, if I remember it correctly, it's all about this.
[17:09]It it's very much so about uh teaching not that the adults in young people's lives not telling them the truth about sexual health or how what is sex. Cuz like, you know, because that's so important when you're young cuz what crazy things can happen if you don't know what you're doing. You know?
[17:28]Kinakalakhahan natin, I'm sorry to cut you there. Kinakalakhahan natin na ang sex hindi pinag-uusapan, it's supposed to be taboo. Yes. It's supposed to be. It shouldn't be. And there's a way to talk about it with your children.
[17:41]With respect and love. With respect and love and a and an appropriate way. Right. You you're not 'syempre' naman, you're not going to pull a porn and like here, look all you know Jesus. You you got to explain things to your kids so that they don't make mistakes. Respectful. No, but I want to go back to our original discussion. Yes. So, nagka-girlfriend, boyfriend ka na. But right now, are you single, are you taken?
[18:03]I'm single at the moment. You are single. Are you waiting or you know I wanted to ask, do you chase, do you wait?
[18:10]Ah I do both. You do both. It depends on how I'm feeling. I love that. Why not? Um yeah, I mean it depends on where I am in life, you know. Yeah. I for a while, I chased a lot. And now I'm waiting. Okay. And now I'm like, you know what? Sige, universe, I'll just wait na. Okay. You know, just uh this year, kung tama ang aking pagkakaalala, January this year, there was a press conference your mama did. And then uh na we we got to know, nalaman naming lahat that uh she had separated from your dad. We didn't know that, you know. And knowing your mother who has been very very private uh in spite of her being very public. Were you surprised that she spoke about it openly?
[19:01]A little. Talaga? A little. But at the same time, not. Because it had been a long time coming. And I think it was honestly about time that she talk about it. And I'm really glad that she did. Must have been liberating.
[19:18]I'm sure. How old were you when they? I found out a terrible way. So, um, I as as a when I was 14, I had my own Instagram, whatever. I posted like my art there, whatever. And um and some and some terrible fan had some some lovely person went in the comments and was like, and all cap and all cap um
[19:39]Nicole, I'm so sorry that your parents are divorced. God bless your mom. I'm so sorry. What the hell? And I had no idea. I had no idea that they were split. And I don't know where they heard this from. And I was like balling my eyes and my and my boyfriend at the time and my best and one of my best friends were like, what's wrong with you? What's wrong with you? Why are you doing this? I do that. I was I was basically a child. And the next day, my dad, my my I talked to my dad about this. And I text my dad and I'm like, what what's going on? You know, and he's like, um, I very sorry that you had to find out like that. But yeah, me and your mom are separated. But and we want you to know that it was very hard. But that the conversation was long and very difficult for the both of us. And it's not your fault, you know, and uh it it was this was it was um, it was um, 'talaga' it was a long time coming. How how is your relationship with dad? Great. How is mom and dad's relationship? Great. It's fine. It's fine. Okay. So, no problem.
[20:47]Yeah. It's basically no problem. But like my my even as a kid, I kind of had a feeling like my my parents were not as affectionate towards each other. Yes. You noticed that. I noticed that. I thought it was normal cuz that's all I knew. But when you see your friends' parents like, you know, kiss each other and like hold each other and stuff in certain ways and whatever. And you see your parents not really do that so much. You know. Your dad, uh you you mentioned in an interview is in another relationship. Yes. Uh, do you talk to your mom and say, why don't you going to have a boyfriend, mom?
[21:25]I did. I did. But then I think he doesn't want one. She doesn't like. I think I think she's very content with how she is right now. And who am I to tell her to find a man, you know? Like she's she's she doesn't she doesn't need one. And she's perfectly independent and and whole on her own. She she tells me like like that apparently I'm the only man that she needs in her life. I am just just her son. That's it. And you know what? Okay. I will cry here. You, not me. Yeah. But um, yeah, and my dad and my my my step mom is is a wonderful lady. Yeah. And I am so glad that this is on TV. I want to say this for the record. She's a wonderful lady and I and I care about her and I love her. And, you know, my my dad and her make a lovely couple and I'm I just want my dad to be happy. And I just want my mom to be happy. And knowing your heart that as I said earlier, we will support you. Yeah. Because there's so much um outside of genders and sexual orientations, you know, we're talking about humanity here. Yeah. Um, wonderful story. Wonderful story of, you know, a young son and a mother. Tamang-tama ang Spring Awakening. Sobra, sobra. Sobra.

And knowing your mother who has been very very private uh in spite of her being very public. Were you surprised that she spoke about it openly? A little. Talaga? A little. But at the same time, not. Because it had been a long time coming. And I think it was honestly about time that she talk about it. And I'm really glad that she did. Must have been liberating. I'm sure. How old were you when they? I found out a terrible way. So, um, I as as a when I was 14, I had my own Instagram, whatever. I posted like my art there, whatever.

And she's perfectly independent and and whole on her own. She she tells me like like that apparently I'm the only man that she needs in her life. I am just just her son. That's it. And you know what?

Parang ah parang alam n'yo kung bakit sinasabi ko na tamang-tama because that's Spring Awakening is basically, if I remember it correctly, it's all about this. It it's very much so about uh teaching not that the adults in young people's lives not telling them the truth about sexual health or how what is sex. Cuz like, you know, because that's so important when you're young cuz what crazy things can happen if you don't know what you're doing. You know? Kinakalakhahan natin, I'm sorry to cut you there. Kinakalakhahan natin na ang sex hindi pinag-uusapan, it's supposed to be taboo. Yes. It's supposed to be. It shouldn't be. And there's a way to talk about it with your children. With respect and love. With respect and love and a and an appropriate way. Right. You you're not 'syempre' naman, you're not going to pull a porn and like here, look all you know Jesus.

And knowing your mother who has been very very private uh in spite of her being very public. Were you surprised that she spoke about it openly? A little. Talaga? A little. But at the same time, not. Because it had been a long time coming. And I think it was honestly about time that she talk about it. And I'm really glad that she did. Must have been liberating. I'm sure. How old were you when they? I found out a terrible way. So, um, I as as a when I was 14, I had my own Instagram, whatever. I posted like my art there, whatever.

I thought it was normal cuz that's all I knew. But when you see your friends' parents like, you know, kiss each other and like hold each other and stuff in certain ways and whatever. And you see your parents not really do that so much. You know. Your dad, uh you you mentioned in an interview is in another relationship. Yes. Uh, do you talk to your mom and say, why don't you going to have a boyfriend, mom? I did. I did. But then I think he doesn't want one. She doesn't like. I think I think she's very content with how she is right now. And who am I to tell her to find a man, you know? Like she's she's she doesn't she doesn't need one. And she's perfectly independent and and whole on her own. She she tells me like like that apparently I'm the only man that she needs in her life. I am just just her son. That's it. And you know what? Okay. I will cry here. You, not me. Yeah. But um, yeah, and my dad and my my my step mom is is a wonderful lady. Yeah. And I am so glad that this is on TV. I want to say this for the record. She's a wonderful lady and I and I care about her and I love her. And, you know, my my dad and her make a lovely couple and I'm I just want my dad to be happy. And I just want my mom to be happy. And knowing your heart that as I said earlier, we will support you. Yeah. Because there's so much um outside of genders and sexual orientations, you know, we're talking about humanity here. Yeah. Um, wonderful story. Wonderful story of, you know, a young son and a mother. Tamang-tama ang Spring Awakening. Sobra, sobra. Sobra. Parang ah parang alam n'yo kung bakit sinasabi ko na tamang-tama because that's Spring Awakening is basically, if I remember it correctly, it's all about this. It it's very much so about uh teaching not that the adults in young people's lives not telling them the truth about sexual health or how what is sex. Cuz like, you know, because that's so important when you're young cuz what crazy things can happen if you don't know what you're doing. You know? Kinakalakhahan natin, I'm sorry to cut you there. Kinakalakhahan natin na ang sex hindi pinag-uusapan, it's supposed to be taboo. Yes. It's supposed to be. It shouldn't be. And there's a way to talk about it with your children. With respect and love. With respect and love and a and an appropriate way. Right. You you're not 'syempre' naman, you're not going to pull a porn and like here, look all you know Jesus. You you got to explain things to your kids so that they don't make mistakes. Respectful. No, but I want to go back to our original discussion. Yes. So, nagka-girlfriend, boyfriend ka na. But right now, are you single, are you taken? I'm single at the moment. You are single. Are you waiting or you know I wanted to ask, do you chase, do you wait? Ah I do both. You do both. It depends on how I'm feeling. I love that. Why not? Um yeah, I mean it depends on where I am in life, you know. Yeah. I for a while, I chased a lot. And now I'm waiting. Okay. And now I'm like, you know what? Sige, universe, I'll just wait na. Okay. You know, just uh this year, kung tama ang aking pagkakaalala, January this year, there was a press conference your mama did. And then uh na we we got to know, nalaman naming lahat that uh she had separated from your dad. We didn't know that, you know. And knowing your mother who has been very very private uh in spite of her being very public. Were you surprised that she spoke about it openly? A little. Talaga? A little. But at the same time, not. Because it had been a long time coming. And I think it was honestly about time that she talk about it. And I'm really glad that she did. Must have been liberating. I'm sure. How old were you when they? I found out a terrible way. So, um, I as as a when I was 14, I had my own Instagram, whatever. I posted like my art there, whatever. And um and some and some terrible fan had some some lovely person went in the comments and was like, and all cap and all cap um
