00:00I didn't know that Oh Nanay was written with you in mind.
00:05Because of your performance in MPK, your performance was so intense that they were so impressed.
00:12I think so.
00:13Because that was the first time.
00:15The creative team told me that it was the first time that a little person, a girl, had a very serious role.
00:24So they thought that it's possible for it to become a tele-series.
00:28Because MPK is derived from a true story of a little person.
00:33I auditioned for that.
00:35I don't have acting experience.
00:37It was just a dare.
00:39That's why I auditioned.
00:41I didn't expect that they would give it to me.
00:44When I got there, they asked me if I will make them cry.
00:47Because I don't know how to cry.
00:49I don't have experience with acting.
00:51After that, I continued.
00:54Who dared you to audition?
00:57My older brother.
00:58The story is that I was already working at the office at that time.
01:02After I went to school, I applied for a job.
01:05I was an office girl at that time.
01:07It was a very busy day.
01:09I don't remember the reason.
01:11I was on a very bad trip.
01:14I think I had a lot of work that day.
01:16When I went to my locker, I saw my older brother's message.
01:21My father was the president of the Little People Association of the Philippines.
01:26There was a Facebook page.
01:29My eldest brother was the admin.
01:32There was an inquiry on the page.
01:35If there was a little person with this age and this qualification.
01:40Because we were looking for an actress for MPK.
01:44I was the same age as my older brother.
01:46I was the same age as my older brother.
01:48I was the same age as my older brother.
01:50I was the same age as my older brother.
01:51My older brother knew me.
01:52He asked me if I could work here.
01:54But I don't have a fusing personality.
01:56So I refused.
01:58I told my father that I will audition for GMA.
02:02My father was very surprised.
02:04Why?
02:06Because I don't have experience with acting.
02:09I never auditioned for an acting role.
02:12I told him that I just wanted to audition.
02:15That was my aim for that day.
02:17He said, okay, if you want.
02:19He was very surprised.
02:20I didn't have the skill to audition for GMA.
02:22I applied.
02:23When I got there, all the lines had experience in acting.
02:28They appeared on TV before.
02:30I was thinking, what will I do here?
02:33I asked the PA, what will I do if I audition?
02:39Will I dance?
02:41He said, no.
02:43We will just ask you to read something.
02:45We will see if you can deliver lines.
02:51When I got home, I told my older brother that I already auditioned.
02:58I auditioned once in my life.
03:01After that, they gave me the role.
