00:00With Kath, was it easy for her?
00:03Actually, I was surprised when she said,
00:05Wow! I'm so used to it.
00:07There was a side that I didn't see.
00:24Hi, PEPsters! Welcome to PEP Spotlight.
00:27I'm Rachel.
00:28And we have with us today,
00:30Asia's Romantic Balladeer, Christian Bautista.
00:35Hello! Good to see you again.
00:39Hi, Christian.
00:40Of course, before we chat,
00:43let's go to our icebreaker game.
00:47Oh.
00:48There.
00:54So, for this first and last,
00:56we only have a few questions.
00:58Then, just share with us your top-of-mind answers.
01:02Are you ready, Christian?
01:04Ready.
01:05We can do this.
01:07I believe in myself.
01:08There.
01:09Of course, Christian is already used to our PEP interviews.
01:13So, for sure.
01:14There.
01:15Number one.
01:17First talent fee, what is your wish?
01:20Do you remember?
01:22I was nervous.
01:23I thought, what is your first talent fee?
01:26No, not really.
01:28Let's just say,
01:29my friend's first talent fee wedding was P500.
01:37Oh, my gosh.
01:39And the first thing I bought was Chicken Joy.
01:46So, these are not official singing careers, of course.
01:52These are just rockets.
01:55These are just rockets.
01:58Then, it's time to go to a singing career.
02:02Then, I heard that you're doing theater.
02:05You're doing TV.
02:07And then, you're like this in my castle.
02:09Things like that.
02:10So, this is after your college?
02:13After college, yes.
02:15Okay.
02:16Okay.
02:17Number two.
02:18Number two.
02:20First theme song with wifey cat.
02:23First.
02:24First.
02:25First.
02:26First.
02:27First.
02:28Ligaya.
02:29Ligaya ng Eraserheads.
02:30Why did you choose Ligaya?
02:32When we were just dating,
02:35she watched one of my shows.
02:39And then, I sang Ligaya.
02:42And then, she fell in love with me.
02:44Wow!
02:45She watched it.
02:46And we decided that since that song is very memorable,
02:52that was also her bridal march.
02:55But it was acoustic.
02:57It was cello.
02:58It was very nice.
03:00Wow!
03:01That's so sweet.
03:03Yeah.
03:04But sometimes, aside from the first theme song,
03:10there's also the song that I offered for you.
03:16Another one.
03:17You know,
03:19it's also the way you look at me, my song.
03:23Because I really like the line there that says,
03:27you make me believe that there's nothing in this world I cannot be.
03:32So, that's what she does to me.
03:34Sometimes, I tend to look down on myself.
03:41And then, she reminds me to be proud of myself also.
03:47And she is proud of me.
03:48Okay.
03:50Wow!
03:52Wow!
03:53We can really see the side of Christian.
03:56Okay.
03:57Wow!
03:58Next.
03:59First thing you do when you wake up,
04:04do you have a routine?
04:07First thing, pray first.
04:08Lord, thank you for this day.
04:10Thank you for the blessings.
04:11Help me through this day.
04:12Pray.
04:13If you forgot to pray,
04:15brush your teeth first.
04:16And then, go back to praying.
04:18Oh, sorry, Lord.
04:19I forgot to pray.
04:21Why do you think that's the first thing you do?
04:26Oh, man.
04:27After 21 years and being alive for 42,
04:32there are a lot of ups and downs.
04:34And I can't handle life without prayer.
04:37So, that became my guiding force.
04:42Ah, that's the secret.
04:44Yeah.
04:46Are you a morning person?
04:49Morning person, if there's a call time.
04:51If there's no call time, around 10.
04:54But if there's a call time,
04:56even if it's just the first line,
04:58and we're going to sing,
04:59we're going to vocalize,
05:00and we're going to sing.
05:03So, always on the go, right?
05:05Yes.
05:06It's a must.
05:08Next.
05:09First and last.
05:10There, last.
05:11Last gift you gave Kat?
05:15Last gift I gave Kat.
05:18Oh, that's a good one.
05:21The last gift.
05:22Object.
05:24Object.
05:25Object, right?
05:27The last gift I gave Kat.
05:30Or in surprise, it can also be an act of service.
05:35Well, I like how you say that.
05:38Okay, so one of the last semi-gifts.
05:42Actually, we gave it to ourselves.
05:47We needed to go on a vacation in Bali, Indonesia.
05:52We love Bali.
05:54First, there was a wedding,
05:55but we needed some time together also
05:59to enjoy life, enjoy marriage, take a break.
06:03And that became our gift to each other.
06:07Wow.
06:09There.
06:10Okay, last.
06:12Last time you felt proud of yourself.
06:16Last time I felt proud of myself.
06:19Maybe, last night.
06:23Last night, I sang in an event.
06:27And when you meet fans,
06:32and you haven't seen them for a long time,
06:36or they just saw you now,
06:38and they'll tell you,
06:41I've been a fan all my life,
06:44and it's the first time that I met you,
06:47and I'm so happy.
06:48There was another fan who said,
06:50I moved to Imus Cavite just to meet you there.
06:56Those moments.
06:59Sometimes, you have fans all over,
07:04and you don't know when you'll meet them,
07:07or when you'll finally meet them.
07:09When you meet a fan for the first time,
07:15it's such a fulfilling experience.
07:20Right.
07:21Do you still feel surprised
07:23even though you've been in the industry for so long?
07:27I feel surprised because I've been in the industry for so long.
07:32It's like,
07:35every generation has a new set of wonderful singers, right?
07:42And then here are these people who stick with you.
07:45It's a really nice feeling.
07:48There.
07:49Okay.
07:50We're just getting started, Pepsers.
07:52We've talked a lot with Christian.
07:54But of course,
07:56the latest updates that we've seen from you,
07:59we've noticed that,
08:00before, you've told us in our interviews
08:03that you want to venture into content creation,
08:07whether for YouTube or for TikTok.
08:10And we've seen,
08:13we've seen your lighter side,
08:16because usually,
08:17when it comes to performance, AOS,
08:19or judging The Clash,
08:22here, we can see
08:25the stubbornness of Christian.
08:27Can you share with us your journey
08:29in your ventures
08:34in becoming a TikTok creator?
08:37Okay, okay.
08:38So, before we became a TikTok creator,
08:42we first tried on YouTube
08:46during the pandemic,
08:47when we were all locked in.
08:49Kat and I,
08:51we said,
08:52when we were at home,
08:54we didn't do anything.
08:56Let's make a vlog.
08:58So, we brought whatever we could bring home.
09:00We brought a swimming pool inside the house.
09:03We cooked.
09:05He held me and I held him.
09:07So, we started on YouTube.
09:09And then,
09:11obviously, when TikTok became popular,
09:13and then Reels and everything else came in,
09:17I really also wanted to do it
09:19like what you said,
09:21to show my lighter side
09:23that is not usually seen.
09:25And also,
09:27to reach out to fans
09:29because I also
09:31do TikTok live streaming also
09:34so that there's really a live interaction.
09:38And I enjoy it because
09:40they enjoy it.
09:43And it's funny,
09:44sometimes, it reaches other countries
09:47because of the algorithms.
09:48Suddenly, the title is like,
09:50of course, sometimes Indonesians are watching.
09:53But
09:55it's fun because I get to do it
09:57with my wife also.
10:00There.
10:02Did you expect that,
10:04Al, I can be
10:06I can also show
10:08our qualities of Kat?
10:11I mean, of course,
10:12you are from showbiz, right?
10:14So, you're so used to
10:16putting yourself out there.
10:18With Kat,
10:19was it easy for her to
10:21join you for
10:23the recordings of all
10:26TikTok content?
10:28Actually, I was surprised when it comes to
10:30the action.
10:31She's also different.
10:32Like, wow, she's so used to it.
10:34There's also a side
10:36that I didn't see.
10:38When she is in front of the camera,
10:40she knows exactly
10:42what to do as well.
10:44Because I remember her story
10:46to me when she was young.
10:47She was also a model.
10:49So,
10:50when it comes to
10:52curating content,
10:54it's very natural.
10:56And she knows exactly
10:58what she wants to do
11:00and what we want to do.
11:02That's why it's a beautiful
11:04combination.
11:06The most important thing is
11:08we need to enjoy it.
11:09And you need to see that enjoyment.
11:12Even if it's just a few takes.
11:14So, when it comes to editing,
11:16you'll also see that we're enjoying it.
11:18Because if you force it, it's hard.
11:19You'll also feel
11:21that it's not perfect or plastic or what.
11:23The most important thing we do
11:25is to make you feel
11:27the genuineness.
11:29How is the process
11:31of content creation?
11:32Are you the type of person
11:33who is impromptu?
11:35If you have an idea, okay, go.
11:37Or do you have
11:39inspirations?
11:41Do you read the trending
11:43topics as well?
11:45So, it depends.
11:47Mostly, I'm co-managed by
11:49my wife's company.
11:51And they have a digital
11:53strategy.
11:55So, they made a digital strategy for me.
11:57We'll set days
11:59and times to shoot
12:01all of that. And then
12:03they'll edit it. But sometimes, obviously,
12:05I also think about
12:07or I see a trend.
12:09Hey, we can do this.
12:11Then I'll suggest it.
12:13Then they'll put it where it fits.
12:15But most of it,
12:17it's their digital strategy.
12:19They researched it.
12:21You can't
12:23force it.
12:25For example, I danced
12:27to Pantropico.
12:29But when we
12:31met, I suggested
12:33to make them laugh.
12:35I'll just dance the first step.
12:37Only the first step.
12:39Then they'll laugh.
12:41People laugh and get mad.
12:43Like, wow, they're making fun of us again.
12:45They're just happy and laughing.
12:47But at the same time,
12:49it's still a trend. So, it's still
12:51fun at the same time.
12:53I like it when you don't force it.
12:55Because I remember
12:57you said,
12:59will you dance for
13:01TikTok?
13:03And if you're
13:05not comfortable with it,
13:07it's okay to do the first
13:09dance step. And it's funny because
13:11it's like, is there a next step?
13:13Is there a next step?
13:15Nothing.
13:17But that's always the comment.
13:19Hey, where's the next step?
13:21Hey, finish it.
13:23But nothing. Good luck.
13:25I feel like your fans are excited to see you
13:27dance.
13:29At least.
13:31At least they're trying.
13:33There.
13:35And another
13:37funny content
13:39I saw was the matchy-matchy.
13:41Mmm.
13:43You and Kat.
13:45I mean, is it like that?
13:47Is it like that in real life?
13:49Do you really
13:51try to match your outfits?
13:53Honestly,
13:55Kat is a
13:57fashionista.
13:59I get advice from her.
14:01So, usually, if I'm not fashionable,
14:03it means that I didn't ask her
14:05what I'm going to wear.
14:07But professionally,
14:09I'm styled by
14:11Rayne XM in GNA.
14:13They also style me in SBD.
14:15But
14:17Kat and I,
14:19when we go out,
14:21I'm usually more relaxed, casual.
14:23She's always
14:25in good form.
14:27But this matchy-matchy,
14:29Kat just thought
14:31to try it.
14:33Because sometimes,
14:35you also have to experiment.
14:37I'm in show business,
14:39so I'm also part of
14:41the fashion industry, sort of.
14:43She likes fashion.
14:45We combined it.
14:47If you think about it, matchy-matchy is also twinning.
14:49There are a lot of similar words, right?
14:51And
14:53there are also people who do it
14:55before.
14:57But when we did it,
14:59it became fresh and cute.
15:01And people liked it.
15:03So, I think,
15:05when we did it,
15:07it went up to a few million.
15:09We'll make a new one.
15:13And of course, the latest,
15:15or one of the latest,
15:17the strike a pose.
15:19Like a parkour,
15:21but funny twist.
15:23It's crazy.
15:25Who has the idea?
15:27It's them.
15:29They also saw the trend.
15:31They said, Christian, do this.
15:33Then,
15:35I added
15:37from my personal
15:39experience.
15:41When I was a kid,
15:43I played Loksong Baka.
15:45Let's play Loksong Baka.
15:47When I was a kid, I went to Bohol
15:49and I saw Tarsier.
15:51So,
15:53it's also a collaboration
15:55because
15:57they have to bring it out of me also.
15:59The ideas that are
16:01in me also.
16:03How do you think
16:05your acting
16:07background helps?
16:09Is there a difference
16:11in acting for
16:13whether for a vlog
16:15or for a TikTok content versus
16:17acting for TV
16:19or movies?
16:21Very, very good question.
16:23So,
16:25earlier, we talked about
16:27genuineness.
16:29But honestly,
16:31there's also a time that
16:33during that day,
16:35during that moment, genuinely,
16:37you're not sleeping
16:39or you're
16:41pissed about something.
16:43That's where you'll put your acting.
16:45Because acting,
16:47it's highlighting
16:49who you are. It's not
16:51necessarily faking it.
16:53You'll still get it inside you
16:55but you'll put a little
16:57because at the end of the day,
16:59you still have to perform.
17:01You still have to entertain.
17:03So,
17:05there are different ways to do it.
17:07So, you need to turn
17:09on a little bit of your acting
17:11and combine it
17:13with the genuineness
17:15so that when people watch it,
17:17even if it's outrageous,
17:19they'll still enjoy
17:21while doing it.
17:23There's still a truth to it.
17:25There.
17:27Of course, that's why
17:29here,
17:31it's an advantage
17:33to be an artist.
17:35Because we also have
17:37a lot of content creators now,
17:39not necessarily from showbiz.
17:41There are really fresh
17:43or from YouTube
17:45or TikTok.
17:47They're really
17:49coming out.
17:51How do you navigate
17:53that? Being able to
17:55stand out
17:57to our many
17:59content creators now?
18:01It is very, very
18:03hard to stand out now
18:05because there are millions
18:07of content creators. Because the content
18:09creator,
18:11it's not just the Philippines.
18:13It's worldwide. It's like the songs
18:15that we release when we
18:17release on Spotify or Apple or whatever.
18:19It's not just
18:21the Philippine market. It's always
18:23everyone already
18:25in the world. Especially when it's
18:27a content creator.
18:29To stand out,
18:31for me,
18:33my advantage,
18:35I've had 20 plus years
18:37of entertainment
18:39and fans.
18:41How
18:43will I release
18:45what works
18:47within me, like music?
18:49Or like
18:51what's new?
19:01Sometimes,
19:03there's an element of surprise.
19:05But it will only work
19:07again, going back,
19:09if it comes from your core
19:11that either they haven't seen
19:13or you're still
19:15coming out.
19:17Of course,
19:19another advantage,
19:21there's Mima,
19:23who has a lot of influencers
19:25and content creators
19:27that are cool. Do you have
19:29favorite or request
19:31that, I see, this is what I want
19:33to be with from Mima?
19:35Well,
19:37I've done some
19:39content with
19:41Rako Ruiz.
19:43She teaches me Gen Z words.
19:45I'm like,
19:47what does Ruiz mean?
19:49She reminds me of
19:51Konya words. It's funny.
19:53We also have
19:55biking content
19:57with Bujji.
19:59We're biking, drinking coffee
20:01and talking.
20:03I'm still waiting to put it inside
20:05Lugbiani, Abbey, Marquez.
20:07Let's see if
20:09it will work.
20:11They're also good
20:13in different fields.
20:15They're successful in their own
20:17field.
20:19They entertain
20:21everyone.
20:23They're also willing
20:25collaborators as well.
20:27It's been a nice partnership.
20:29You also have cooking.
20:31Yeah.
20:35I remember
20:37that I did a kitchen musical
20:39TV series in Singapore
20:41with Karil.
20:43I was the chef there.
20:45I was the chef who sang.
20:47When we tried
20:49that content,
20:51when you start, you also experiment.
20:53What will work?
20:55It's not far from me
20:57because I have a role as a chef.
20:59But I don't
21:01pretend that I'm good at cooking.
21:03I'm just bad at cooking.
21:05I always mess up.
21:07My dishes are always messy.
21:09I'm not good at cooking.
21:11Kata is good at cooking.
21:13But I still love to eat
21:15and I still love to entertain.
21:17That's what happened.
21:19Do you have
21:21dreams to collaborate
21:23in your next
21:25content?
21:31In my next content,
21:33I really want to
21:35discover
21:37musicians
21:39or producers
21:41here and abroad
21:43who are just starting
21:45or who want
21:47to collaborate with
21:49balladeers like me.
21:51At the end of the day, I'm a musician
21:53and I'm a singer.
21:55Definitely, it's fun
21:57to do content creation.
21:59But my core is still music.
22:01You notice that
22:03when you look at
22:05Spotify now,
22:07usually the top tens,
22:09all of them don't have a beat.
22:11Usually.
22:13They're not
22:15usually in a
22:17noontime show
22:19or in a variety show.
22:21They did it on their own
22:23with their pure talent
22:25wherever they are
22:27in the Philippines or in the world.
22:29And then suddenly,
22:31it comes out. So I would like to
22:33collaborate with some of them
22:35who are just starting
22:37or about to hit the tipping point.
22:39Wow, that's going to be so exciting
22:41if it happens.
22:43My gosh, would that be a long-form video
22:45type of format on YouTube?
22:47It's going to be a song.
22:49It's going to be a song
22:51and it's going to be
22:53the song creation
22:55or song process.
22:57When you scroll on TikTok,
22:59how did this song start?
23:01Why?
23:03What's the process?
23:05There are music producers
23:07who are very engaging
23:09but complicated.
23:11But they make it simple
23:13on how they make a song.
23:15Something like that.
23:17That's beautiful.
23:19I hope there's a follow-up.
23:21I remember Sasangre.
23:23Wow.
23:25A lot of people are requesting that.
23:27Up to now.
23:29Maybe it's better
23:31if you plan your dynamics
23:33off-cam or
23:35how you plan it.
23:37Yeah.
23:39They'll be excited.
23:41I think next year.
23:43It's almost there.
23:45They're building up this year.
23:47Yeah.
23:49Wow.
23:51You mentioned earlier
23:53the Singapore musical.
23:55Lately,
23:57you performed
23:59with All For One
24:01at their 30th anniversary concert
24:03in Indonesia.
24:05How was that experience?
24:07You were back
24:09in that turf
24:11with a lot of supporters.
24:13Yeah.
24:15When I was in high school,
24:17we had a boy band.
24:19We sang
24:21Boys To Men,
24:23All For One,
24:25and Sync.
24:27It was an a cappella.
24:29I showed it to my classmates.
24:31Guys!
24:33I did a duet with them.
24:35We used to sing this
24:37in the hallways
24:39because the echo was there.
24:41Sometimes, the echo is better
24:43in the CR.
24:45That's where we practiced.
24:47All For One was very kind.
24:49Very giving.
24:51Very relaxed.
24:53There were a lot of rules
24:55and regulations.
24:57But in All For One,
24:59we were like,
25:01sure, no problem.
25:03Until now,
25:05they're still touring in America
25:07even though they have families.
25:09After rehearsal,
25:11one of them calls his wife.
25:13They're very normal.
25:15But their voices are still great.
25:17Of course, singing in Indonesia
25:19is always a pleasure.
25:21And
25:23because of that concert,
25:25they want me to do
25:27more or another one.
25:29So,
25:31let's wait and see.
25:33Wow!
25:35What are the songs
25:37of All For One
25:39that you sang before?

31:41I'll be there
31:43I'll be there
31:45I'll be there
31:47I'll be there
31:49I'll be there
31:51I'll be there
31:53I'll be there
31:55I'll be there
31:57I'll be there
31:59I'll be there
32:01I'll be there
32:03I'll be there
32:05I'll be there
32:07I'll be there
32:09I'll be there
32:11I'll be there
32:13I'll be there
32:15I'll be there
32:17I'll be there
32:19I'll be there
32:21For a star, it takes visuals
32:23attitude
32:25and talent
32:27So, out of those three
32:29which one do you think
32:31is the most important?
32:33Or the one that works the most for you?
32:35Because Christian has all of those
32:39I guess
32:41your attitude is
32:43having that perspective
32:47to work hard
32:49after many years of being in the industry
32:51and your mindset is still the same
32:53like a different level of
32:57attitude
33:01So, everything they said is right
33:05but honestly, for me
33:07I'll go with visuals
33:11I will start with attitude first
33:13attitude or hard work or grit
33:15because
33:17it's not easy
33:19and you need to do a lot
33:21I hope there's a talent
33:23that you can
33:25nurture or strengthen
33:27the description of talent
33:29a simple description of talent
33:31is basically something
33:35you personally or me
33:37can do easier
33:39or faster than someone else
33:41that's it
33:43another person
33:45will have also his or her own
33:47specific amazing talent
33:49that I cannot do
33:51because it's not possible
33:53sometimes I notice in show business
33:55we have our own world
33:57of showbiz
33:59for example
34:01if there's a showbiz
34:03and there's a new partner
34:05the label is
34:07the non-showbiz partner
34:09you can say
34:11the non-showbiz partner
34:13why would you put a claim
34:15the non-showbiz partner
34:17sometimes we're trapped
34:19in our own world
34:21but there's a bigger world out there
34:23and definitely
34:25in the other
34:27in the world outside showbiz also
34:29that's also what you need
34:31attitude, hard work
34:33talent
34:35and visuals help
34:37but I'm not the last one
34:39because sometimes
34:41you don't have talent and hard work
34:43you'll get there
34:45because you don't have a foundation
34:49wow
34:51our insights are different
34:53from Christian
34:55wow
34:57this is my final question
34:59so knowing what you know now
35:01what you've shared
35:03and what you've been through for
35:05so many years
35:07in the industry and as an individual
35:09what would you tell your younger self
35:11when you were starting in the business
35:15invest in
35:17zoom and google meets
35:19because there will be a pandemic
35:21that's one
35:23second
35:25keep on going
35:29it will be hard
35:31this is hard
35:33but because
35:35if you persevere
35:37this is what you'll achieve
35:39but you won't achieve it
35:41without hard work
35:43and that's what I always say
35:45I will be a judge
35:47in the singing contest The Clash again
35:49with Ai-Ai and Miss Lan
35:51and
35:53that's what I always say
35:55to the contestants
35:57wow
35:59you were given
36:01a free and quick pass
36:03to be seen
36:05by millions
36:07on a tv stage
36:09so you really
36:11have to do your best
36:13because it's not easy
36:15the hardest part
36:17is after the contest
36:19if you won or lost
36:21that's the real competition
36:25and coming from someone
36:27who came from
