00:00I guess this is the one I talked about the most.
00:07This is the one I showed.
00:09Everything, like my stretch marks here, my blue skin here,
00:14the black line in the middle of my forehead that doesn't disappear.
00:20The singer and actress from Geneva Cruise is also being judged on social media.
00:26The singer said,
00:28so I just answered,
00:30I said,
00:31it's called shadow.
00:33I said,
00:34I'm sorry, I forgot to photoshop it for your delight.
00:38I don't post pictures for your pleasure.
00:44But the fit and fab at Proud Mom is not far behind.
00:49Stretch marks and bling bling,
00:51she also has that.
00:54Of course, when you sit down,
00:56there are also imperfections.
00:58You might think,
00:59you're the only one with bling bling, right?
01:02Because I don't want them to think that just because we're celebrities,
01:05we're perfect.
01:06We're nothing.
01:08And for those who say she shouldn't wear a bikini at her age,
01:13This is the one I'm most proud of.
01:15Someone said,
01:16you're already in your 40s, why are you wearing a bikini?
01:19It's embarrassing.
01:21That's what I'm saying.
01:23Watch me.
01:24You know, it's just like that.
01:28I'm happy in my bikini,
01:29I'm not sick anymore.
01:30Leave me alone.
01:33They say,
01:34if you have it,
01:35flaunt it.
01:36It's not just her fit and fab,
01:38her body is what makes her great.
01:40But as a Proud Mom,
01:42she's also proud of her bling bling,
01:45stretch marks,
01:46and loose skin.
01:48My intention there,
01:50is to protect my elders,
01:53who are in their 40s,
01:56my mothers,
01:58who have stretch marks,
02:00loose skin,
02:03that other people can't understand.
02:08Geneva has been on the showbiz for more than three decades.
02:11To be honest,
02:12she's used to being judged by others.
02:14She admitted it at first,
02:16that she's also afraid to show her imperfections.
02:20Because,
02:21in the 34 years of my career as a singer-actor,
02:28I don't really answer to my personal life.
02:34I never say anything,
02:35I just keep quiet,
02:36and I let it die.
02:38You know,
02:39a natural death.
02:42That's why,
02:43in her body positivity posts,
02:44she encourages her female colleagues
02:46to grow up,
02:47and love their bodies.
02:50Because this is something that I feel strongly for.
02:53Other women need to,
02:56you know,
02:57explain for them.
03:01And that became my motivation,
03:04for my female colleagues to speak up.
03:11Geneva is also considered a fitspiration.
03:14In 2014,
03:15she started her fitness journey,
03:17after giving birth to her second child,
03:19London.
03:21She also served as a coach to her mother,
03:23Heaven.
03:32Geneva also leveled up her health.
03:35Now,
03:36she's following a regular workout,
03:39like treadmill.
03:42She's lifting weights,
03:43and doing yoga.
03:45But it's also important for her to eat properly.
03:49What I believe in now,
03:50it's not really about the scales,
03:53it's about your feeling in your body.
03:57Are you stronger?
03:59I'm not going to replace myself now,
04:02with the me of my 20s and 30s.
04:06Geneva not only achieved a fit body in her workout,
04:10her body is also healthy and strong.
04:14For her,
04:15health is wealth.
04:17To each its own,
04:18where you're happy,
04:19where you feel,
04:20it's not about getting,
04:22becoming thin,
04:23it's not about that,
04:24it's how to become healthy.
04:27In 2021,
04:28Geneva lost her mother, Marilyn,
04:30because of COVID-19.
04:33Because of this,
04:34she values her health more.
04:38When my mom passed away,
04:40due to COVID,
04:41that's when I realized,
04:43that life is short.
04:44The greatest thing is,
04:46our wealth,
04:47is our health.
04:49No matter how much money you have,
04:52if you let yourself go,
04:55let's take care of ourselves,
04:57because this is all we got,
04:59ourselves.
05:01Even though a lot of people are inspired,
05:03the negative comments about her are still there.
05:06Sometimes,
05:07Geneva doesn't avoid going to the bashers.
05:11I don't speak up
05:12just to be praised by others.
05:15I don't do that.
05:16It's more of like,
05:17I just speak up when I really need to.
05:21And,
05:22and hopefully,
05:24people will understand.
05:27Geneva's advice,
05:28it's better if being healthy
05:30starts earlier.
05:33When I was in my 20s and 30s,
05:35I wasn't this confident.
05:37I wasn't this strong.
05:39Now,
05:40I'm stronger physically,
05:42emotionally,
05:43mentally.
05:45And,
05:47it comes with age.
05:48And,
05:49you know amazing about getting older.
05:51So, we need to be self-aware,
05:53because growth
05:55really starts here in the brain.
05:58And also,
05:59just because you're in your 40s or 50s,
06:02please don't allow anyone
06:04to live your life for you.
06:08Your body,
06:09your choice.
06:10That's right.
06:11You shouldn't be ashamed of imperfections in your body.
06:15Because,
06:16being healthy is not about age.
06:18The goal is just
06:19healthy mind and body.
