i was reminded about the NON DISCLOSURE clause in the contract for the TVCs i’ll shoot tomorrow & on Sunday w/ kuya josh & bimb... just to be sure, won’t post anything work related in the next few days... i’ve been reading the heartwarming comments of so many Fil-Ams 🇺🇸 plus Filipinos in Dubai & the rest of the Middle East who made the effort to watch @crazyrichasians on opening day & all i can say is THANK YOU... every good thing that has ever happened in my life’s journey has been because a lot of Filipinos chose to embrace my family & me 🇵🇭... The impact of being part of a film that highlights & celebrates our Asian heritage for the whole world to see is a GIFT... These pictures had to stay hidden in my iCloud for 14 months, and i felt humbled while editing this video... the opportunity to work w/ not just a TALENTED but a warm & generous TEAM was a BLESSING i shall always be grateful for... if i may share, my mom was protective & unsure that my career path would give me a happy & stable home life; she was correct about her fears- it’s very hard for love to survive when your partner’s chosen profession gives everybody the right to judge & scrutinize what should be your private life... But my dad- he encouraged my dreams, and every time we’d watch a movie together in Boston, or he’d indulge me & watch Dear Heart of Sharon & Gabby w/ me- he’d always say “Beautiful, 1 day ikaw na yung papanuurin natin.” I was 12 years old when he was assassinated so he never saw his baby fulfill her dreams... and as much as i got to feel how supportive & proud my Mom was, it was NINOY AQUINO, my Dad, who believed that this was part of my destiny...To the first & only man who loved me for simply being me, and the first & only man who never doubted me- please know i remain STRONG because i had the privilege of seeing & feeling that you believed in me because you saw so much of you was in me. 💛
