00:00Welcome to Fast Talk with Boy Abunda.
00:29To all of our Facebook and YouTube followers, thank you very much.
00:32To all of our listeners on DZEW, welcome to the program.
00:37We have a very loud cheer from one of our colleagues here in the studio on the right.
00:43Here in the middle, we are full of people.
00:50Thank you very, very much.
00:53Raylee is going to have a snack later.
00:59Today, I was excited to come to the studio.
01:03Because after many years, this is the first time we will meet.
01:07My guest is not only a member of the show business.
01:12I am getting emotional because this is my friend, Matalik.
01:18He is a part of my story.
01:20He is close to my heart.
01:21Naytay Kapuso, please welcome.
01:23BB Gandanghat.
01:38Thank you for being here.
01:39Oh, thank you.
01:40Wait.
01:41I have a lot of instructions here.
01:43It's a bit off-center.
01:45Am I right?
01:47How are you?
01:48I'm very, very okay.
01:50Yes, I told you.
01:51We last talked, right?
01:53Sometime in 2009.
01:55Early on in my transition.
01:57This is my 16th year.
01:58I know.
01:59Yeah.
02:00Early on.
02:01Yes.
02:02During the transition.
02:03But there are kinds of friends, BB, that even if they don't see each other, they are still friends.
02:09Yes.
02:10And almost all of my friends are like that.
02:12Really?
02:13Yes.
02:14There are people like that, right?
02:15There are.
02:16In all the past 16 years, it wasn't easy.
02:19No, it wasn't easy.
02:20No.
02:21It's the hardest.
02:22Contrary to what others thought, that everything was honeymoon, that everything was on a bed of roses.
02:29No, it wasn't.
02:30It was very difficult.
02:31That's why I have a strong feeling when I say, we don't know what she went through.
02:36And to assume that we know is not fair to her.
02:41I said that in a conversation.
02:44But what's fun is the whole.
02:48Right?
02:49With all the people we've been with, most of them are happy.
02:53Most of them.
02:54And with all the friends we've been talking to, who, I don't know how you're going to
03:02handle this, who stayed and who left?
03:07Who left?
03:08Yes.
03:09Oh, a lot of people left.
03:10A lot of people left because part of my transition was actually to isolate myself.
03:16So a lot of people didn't understand my isolation.
03:19Until now?
03:21What do you mean until now?
03:22I mean the last 16 years.
03:23So at first, I understood that.
03:25But it was gone, and until now, it's still gone?
03:28It still doesn't make sense?
03:29Yes.
03:30Okay.
03:31Yes.
03:32Yes.
03:33And I understood that too.
03:34Yes, I understand.
03:35Because they don't know what I'm going through.
03:38Maybe they just thought that a lot of people just disappeared.
03:45Or she woke up.
03:46Unchanged.
03:47Correct.
03:48You know what I mean?
03:49Yes.
03:50Because not everyone knows us.
03:51But on the contrary, it's really part of the transition.
03:55And then, to the people who stayed, Pops is there.
04:01It proved to be.
04:02I talked to her yesterday.
04:03Really?
04:04We're talking about Pops Fernandez.
04:05P-5.
04:06Yes.
04:07Pops, it proved to be.
04:08We had a lot of conflicts, but she understood all the way.
04:14That's how friends are.
04:15Yes.
04:16Because a lot of people didn't go through us.
04:20But you know, a lot has changed, but you didn't laugh.
04:23Me?
04:24You didn't laugh?
04:25Yes.
04:26You still laughed.
04:28Okay.
04:29Maybe I should change a bit.
04:33No, you still laughed.
04:35How was Christmas?
04:36How were the holidays?
04:37Was this really planned?
04:38Did you really plan to go home this Christmas?
04:41Your story.
04:42Okay.
04:43I was here on my birthday last September.
04:45I should have been your guest.
04:46True.
04:47Why didn't we continue?
04:48But I was here last September because my mom had a deteriorating period.
04:54So, she didn't talk much.
04:57So, I said, wait, I'll go home.
04:59And then, I went home.
05:01Robin said, okay, go home.
05:03It's your birthday here.
05:04So, I said, okay, I'll go home.
05:05So, when I got here in September, Robin and I were talking.
05:09He said, Robin and I usually go abroad.
05:13He said, we won't go abroad for mom's sake.
05:17He said, if you want, go home.
05:20But I didn't confirm because I'm studying now.
05:23So, usually, our term in school is like every month.
05:28So, we really don't have a break.
05:30So, maybe the longest break we can have is like 10 days, which is very, very short.
05:35Right.
05:36So, towards the time when Robin and I were talking, he said, go home.
05:42Yes.
05:43So, mom can be with you.
05:44Yes.
05:45So, off-cam, I said, I got emotional because I waited.
05:48I saw you guys leaving.
05:50No, let's go to the coming home.
05:52Yes.
05:53You know, I saw when you were talking to mom, Eva.
05:55And, mom, I'm here.
05:58Yes.
05:59What was, you know, she was not reacting and she was just there.
06:02What was playing in your mind?
06:05In my mind, because it wasn't even a surprise to me anymore.
06:09Because every time I would talk to her on the phone, she would ask the caregivers,
06:14who is she?
06:15And it would break my heart.
06:17I would tell my friends in America that I think it's the most painful when your mom says,
06:27who are you?
06:28Too much.
06:29Right?
06:30So, I said, wait, I'll go home.
06:32But I surprised her.
06:34That's why she really didn't know.
06:36And I told her caregivers, I have a package coming.
06:40Wait for it.
06:41They didn't know I was coming.
06:42Yes.
06:43That's why they were telling mom, mommy, there's a package coming from Bibid.
06:47She didn't know.
06:49But a day before that, there's a story that mommy Eva was just looking out the window
06:54and she was waiting for something.
06:56Yes.
06:57Because there are things that I went through, Bibi.
06:59I told you, I went through that with my mom for a long, long time.
07:04That's why I was able to relate everything.
07:06When you left for Taiwan.
07:07Yeah, yeah.
07:08When you arrived at the airport.
07:10And it's funny because, Binoy, you, people are happy to see that you love your mom so much.
07:18But the question is, in your life, what did you become because of your mom?
07:22Me?
07:23Yeah.
07:24I became very independent.
07:26Because of my mom.
07:28Because she's very strong.
07:29Because she's very strong.
07:30She's our mom and dad.
07:32Although we see our dad, but she was very strong for disciplining us.
07:38And so, I saw that.
07:40And then, plus the fact also, I think she gave me some...
07:44Because I'm the one that she always expects when it comes to...
07:52I'm the one who's always wrong.
07:54So, I was enrolling myself.
07:56I was enrolling Robin.
07:58And giving me that kind of trust at a very young age.
08:03Of course, I never thought of this before.
08:06But now that I'm in the States and living my own life,
08:09that's where I'm getting all of that.
08:11Yes.
08:12But there was a time because...
08:14I mean, you are very close to me.
08:17I'm very close to you, brother.
08:19Were you afraid of your mom?
08:21I was afraid.
08:22You see, up until now.
08:23Correct.
08:24Right?
08:25Up until now, I was afraid.
08:26Why?
08:27Even Binoy.
08:28Yes.
08:29All of us.
08:30All of us.
08:31Right?
08:32Because...
08:33When she came, when she spoke, that's it.
08:34Yes, that's it.
08:35Because she made sure that she wasn't taken for granted.
08:38When she said, I'm going to slap you, she's really going to slap you.
08:42She's not the kind of mom who will scold you and give you chocolate afterwards.
08:46She's not like that.
08:48Yes.
08:49And this is not an excuse.
08:51She was both the mother and the father.
08:53Binoy, talk about Robin.
08:56How was your relationship?
08:59Binoy's relationship with your partner, Rustom,
09:02and Binoy's relationship with Bibi.
09:05I mean, compare them.
09:07There's a big difference.
09:08Because Robin and Rustom are brothers.
09:11So they treat each other as brothers.
09:13And then, the biggest difference is that Robin treats Rustom as a brother.
09:21Now, my relationship with Robin is brother and sister.
09:25I really feel that when I'm with him.
09:28When we're in line, ladies first.
09:31We went to the mosque in Taiwan.
09:36I was wearing a hijab.
09:39Hijab.
09:40I entered there as a woman.
09:42He recognized everything.
09:45He gave you everything and recognized you.
09:48Correct.
09:49He's treating me as a sister now.
09:51More than a brother.
09:53And then also, because my personality is different,
09:57he treats me like a younger sister.
10:01What was that process like?
10:03In the beginning, Robin didn't understand that right away.
10:06Yes.
10:07There was a time when he didn't want to see me.
10:10Where did it pivot?
10:12To my mother.
10:14Okay.
10:15To my mother.
10:16Marielle.
10:17How are you and Marielle?
10:19Marielle is, I think, with all due respect to the relationships that have happened to Robin,
10:26I think she is the best thing that ever happened to Robin.
10:30As far as the relationship is concerned.
10:33They're very swag.
10:35And she's also very loving as far as my mother.
10:38She is.
10:39And then your brother, Roy, had passed on.
10:42Was it last year?
10:43No, it's four years ago.
10:45Four years ago.
10:46But you didn't, did you go home?
10:48No.
10:49You know, in the pre-interview, I was told that you said in an article
10:52that he was the big brother you never met.
10:57What does that mean?
10:59Because I was never close to him.
11:02Parang hindi ko siya nakilala bilang yung tao na hindi kuya kundi yung tao.
11:09Kung anong klase siyang tao.
11:12At hindi kami nakapag-usap ng tungkol sa mga aspirations niya, frustrations niya.
11:24We never went that far.
11:26But if you were to tell him, I mean, he's just there.
11:28I mean, aniniwala ako.
11:29That somehow they listen to us.
11:31You know, we're not alone in this world.
11:33Kung meron kang ilang sasabihin sa kapatid mong si Royette,
11:37Bibi, anong sasabihin mo sa kanya?
11:48Naku, napakadami kasi.
11:50Kung gusto ko.
11:51What comes to mind?
11:53What comes to mind?
11:59I wish I could.
12:00Hindi ko kasi masabi yung kung ano.
12:02Pero ang gusto ko sabihin is,
12:06sana magkaroon tayo ng pagkakataon na magkakwintuhan.
12:15Gusto ko siyang makakwintuhan actually.
12:18At usap lang?
12:19Usap lang.
12:20Kasi yung pinakamasakit sa akin nangyari nung pandemic.
12:27It hit me so hard kasi nakazoom ako habang awake and all.
12:37And then pagkatapos, hanggang libing nandun ako sa zoom.
12:41And then pagkatapos nung libing patay,
12:43wala pa sabihin, wala pa sabihin.
12:45Sakit nun, no?
12:46Ang sakit.
12:47Wala akong mahawakan.
12:48Wala akong...
12:49So, dun ko naramdaman yung,
12:51oh my God, ganito kasakit.
12:53Parang hindi ako nagkaroon ng proper goodbye.
12:56Hindi ko siya...
12:57Up to the last minute,
12:58wala akong moment sa kanya na just to be with us.
13:03Yung...
13:04Yeah.
13:05Parang ganito.
13:06I understand.
13:07Relation mo sa mga pamangkin mo,
13:09kinaasahan mo sa mga pamangkin mo,
13:11Parang ganito.
13:12I understand.
13:13Relation mo sa mga pamangkin mo,
13:15kina Daniel Padilla.
13:16Kasi, di ba, may mga netizens sa limbawa,
13:18nagkocomment,
13:19ano ang relation mo kay Daniel Padilla,
13:22kay Kylie, etc.
13:23How do you answer that?
13:24Kila Kylie kasi,
13:26they're very close to me.
13:27Correct.
13:28Kasi nakatira rin sila sa museo.
13:30So, lahat nang pagnandyan ako,
13:33lumalabas kami,
13:34si Kylie, si Queenie, si Jen,

13:39I'm very close to them.
13:40And maski sa lahat ng mga pamangkin,
13:42si Daniel kasi is,
13:46hindi ko naman masyado nakikita ngayon
13:48kasi di naman siya pumupunta sa mga okasyon,
13:51sa mga family occasions.
13:53So, hindi ko siya masyado nakikita.
13:55But you do have a relationship with him?
13:57Of course.
13:58You have a relationship?
13:59Of course.
14:00Okay.
14:01Let's do fast talk.
14:02Masyadong emosyonal ito.
14:07Hindi ko ine-expect na ganito ka-emosyonal ito.
14:09Oo nga eh.
14:10Okay.

16:25Nami-miss kita kasi hindi personal.
16:26Pero pinapanood kita.
16:28Parate, you know, nagluluto ka.
16:30At napapansin ko, hindi pangisahan ang niluluto mo.
16:34Para kang nagluluto na may kasama lagi.
16:36Exactly.
16:37So, bilang isang kaibigan, ang tanong ko, Bibi.
16:41Ano ba ang lagay ng puso mo ngayon?
16:43That's una.
16:44Pangalawa, I know you're in school, at the LA Film School.
16:47Yeah.
16:48Ito ba'y paghahanda ng isang karera muli sa showbiz?
16:52Not necessarily as an actor.
16:55Ano ang kwento dito?
16:56Ang kasagutan po, sa pagbabalik ng Fast Talk.
16:58Good boy.
17:07We're back in the show.
17:08Kasama po natin ang aking kaibigan, Bibi Gandang Hari.
17:12Mabilisan lamang ito.
17:13Nasusunog ang LA.
17:14Kumusta ang lagay ng iyong tahanan, ng iyong bahay?
17:16Thankfully, wala ako rin sa hills.
17:18So, I'm right in the middle.
17:20Ito yung downtown nandito, tapos nandiyan ang hills.
17:23So, wala.
17:24Praise God.
17:25Correct.
17:26But a lot of my friends and instructors are actually affected.
17:29So, I'm really praying hard.
17:31Plus the fact, I was just talking to my instructor this morning.
17:35Yung air, ang problema ngayon, yung air quality.
17:38Tama.
17:39Oh.
17:40Dahil sa sunog na.
17:41Of course.
17:42Okay.
17:43Pag nagluluto ka, sabi ko, ang dami-dami niya.
17:44Parang hindi naman siya mag-isa.
17:45Meron bang iba?
17:47Meron bang kasama?
17:49Meron bang nakasulat sa iyong puso?
17:52Ito ha.
17:53Aaminin ko sa'yo ito.
17:55Nagluluto kasi ako talaga para maramihan na kasi yun.
17:59Yung lalagay ko sa freezer.
18:01Parang comfort food na yan.
18:02Hirap kasi magluluto pa isa-isa.
18:04Pero, deep in my heart.
18:06Kanina, nagtanong ka, diba?
18:08Magluluto eh, pagluluto ka.
18:10Pero, nagsasanay talaga ako.
18:12Misa, kunyari, iniisip ko ang mga anak.
18:14Ready na tayo kaba eh.
18:16Tawagin niyo na si daddy.
18:20Pero, you know, that's how.
18:22Ganun yung mental state.
18:24Pero may nagpaparamdam.
18:26I mean, how happy is your heart?
18:28Ready to mingle?
18:30Yeah, I think I'm ready to mingle.
18:32But, hindi ko rin naman minamadali.
18:34Sa bagay.
18:36So, parang steady lang ako.
18:38Kasi una-una, parang
18:40I don't know if I'm actually
18:42Ready for a serious relationship.
18:44Because I'm in the middle of
18:46Ito nga pag-aaral.
18:48Take your time.
18:50Yeah, yeah, yeah.
18:52And you're taking up
18:54Bachelor of Science in Entertainment
18:56Business Management.
18:58Pag-ahanda yan, para sa anong karera?
19:00For producing.
19:02I want to be a creative producer.
19:04And a creative director.
19:06And also, that was the reason why I went back to school.
19:08Kasi, party yun yung sinasabi kong
19:10Because when I started transitioning
19:12Yung potential ni Rostom, wala na lahat yun.
19:14Right.
19:16Full-time ka.
19:18I know. Paano ko nabubuhay?
19:20You're not working. Diba?
19:22Because I know, hindi ka rin tumitigil sa kahahanap buhay.
19:24Now, you're full-time.
19:26There was a time
19:28I was parang working student
19:30Pero, umabot sa point na hindi ko na kaya
19:32So, I stopped.
19:34So, medyo galing lahat sa savings.
19:36At parati ko sinasabi yun.
19:38Marunong to mag-save.
19:40At saka, huripot yan.
19:42No, but you're safe.
19:44People don't realize this, but I know you.
19:46Pero kasi kailangan eh.
19:48It proved to be.
19:50Kasi wala kang huhugutin.
19:52Kaya nag-aral na ako bago pa maubos ang lahat.
19:54Nag-aral na ako
19:56And then to be self-sufficient.
19:58But I really wish you the best.
20:00I really wish you the best.
20:02And good luck.
20:04God bless you.
20:06Sana'y matupad lahat ang inyong mga pangarap.
20:10And just keep smiling.
20:14And I wish you well also.
20:16More power to you.
20:18Sabi ko nga you are on top.
20:20Boy on top.
20:22Sabi ko mas pataas ka pa daw dito.
20:24The one and the only.
20:26Maraming salamat.
20:28Maraming salamat mo sa inyong pagpapatuloy sa amin
20:30sa inyong mga tahanan araw-araw.
20:32Goodbye for now.
