00:00Is it true that it wasn't hard for you to enter the entertainment industry because you are the son of Joey DeLeon and Dariana Mirez?
00:17It's a big advantage for me because it wasn't hard for me to get recognized.
00:24When my dad was in Bulagaday and I was with him, I was able to see that person.
00:32And when he had meetings with Mother Lily in Regal, I was able to see Kuya Jerbz and Mother Lily.
00:39I was like, why don't you just make your son an artist?
00:41For me, there's no one I like. I really like Chini.
00:44He was the first one to become an artist.
00:46I don't have that in my vocabulary.
00:48Until such time, we did a sitcom called Before One Ball High.
00:52It was like a high school part of School Bukol.
00:57So, I saw Direk Bebet at that time.
01:00Why don't you include your brother?
01:03I was nervous. I said, I don't like that.
01:06No, you're just there. For example, you're Chini's brother.
01:09Just introduce him as your brother.
01:11You don't have a dialogue.
01:12I don't have a dialogue.
01:14That's all I can say. Dialogue is my name.
01:16I'm nervous. I can't form a dialogue.
01:18So, that's where it started.
01:20How about that convinced you?
01:22Yes.
01:24And then, it went on and on.
01:26How many times can you say that you fell in love with your job?
01:30When I joined DATS Entertainment in 1987,
01:35that's when I really got into hosting and acting.
01:42We have DATS Acting live.
01:44So, I'm thankful to Kuya Jerms and of course, to GMA.
01:49That's where I really started.
01:51That's where my career started.
01:53I've never asked you this.
01:55How were you affected by the separation of your parents?
02:00It's a big thing.
02:02They got separated when I was one year old.
02:05Ah, okay.
02:07So, when I was young, we were really a broken family.
02:10I grew up in a broken family.
02:12I mean, my sister.
02:14And then, when I was six years old,
02:17I was with my mom.
02:19That's where we lived in Scout Rallios.
02:21Our apartment was burned down.
02:23And then, from there,
02:24she took care of everything first
02:26and transferred me to my grandmother,
02:28which is the mom of my dad.
02:30And then, Cheney was there.
02:32So,
02:35she took care of the house that was burned down first
02:39and then she left for the States.
02:43She just told me,
02:45I'll come back.
02:47So, until I got older,
02:49she didn't come back to me.
02:51Until I got older,
02:52I stayed with my grandmother.
02:54Were you angry with her?
02:56Did you feel bad for a while?
02:58For a while, yeah.
03:00I told her that and she knows that.
03:02She admitted that it was her fault.
03:04So,
03:06back then, I was really mad at her
03:08because she even called me one time.
03:10I'm sorry, Mia.
03:13I was 12 years old then.
03:15I was around 12.
03:17She called me on my birthday
03:19and she greeted me.
03:22She even told me that she had a new baby.
03:25My sister, Phoebe, is in the States.
03:27So, she has a partner in the States.
03:30What was your reaction?
03:32I cried.
03:34I cried. I was crushed because
03:36and to think,
03:38I relied on what you said
03:40that you'll come back to me
03:42but you didn't come back to me.
03:44And then, you told me
03:46that you have another child.
03:48So, I was torn.
03:49In my part,
03:51those were the younger days.
03:53I understand.
03:55And because, you said,
03:57you come from a broken family.
03:59Yes.
04:01Your attitude now as a man
04:03has become what?
04:05Now, Uncle Boy, I could say
04:07life's not perfect.
04:09It is not.
04:11Everything is not perfect for us.
04:13Even in our family,
04:15even in ourselves.
04:17Now, I'm just holding on to God
04:19and following His commands
04:21and He knows what's best for me.
04:23So, I'm just there.
04:25It's His way, not my way.
04:28So, whatever God plans for me,
04:31He knows what's in our hearts.
04:34Hypothetical.
04:36If He asks you,
04:38God says,
04:40Do you still want to get married?
04:42Yes, Lord.
04:44I really want to.
04:46But, what I've said,
04:47it's more of Him,
04:49less of me.
04:51That's beautiful.
04:53More of Him, less of me.
04:55What He wants.
04:57And I shall listen,
04:59and I shall follow.
05:01What's also beautiful
05:03is, of course,
05:05we haven't talked about this
05:07because we read about this,
05:09is your reconciliation
05:11with your dad,
05:13even your mom.
05:15How did that happen?
05:18You know, Tito Boy,
05:20when I interviewed you before 2020,
05:22it's when I lost sight of Bulaga.
05:25Correct.
05:27When I was removed,
05:29and I was looking for answers.
05:31I even wrote a letter to Mr. T.
05:33I asked him,
05:35Why?
05:37What did I do wrong?
05:39As far as I know,
05:41I didn't fight,
05:43I wasn't late.
05:45Then suddenly he was gone
05:47for 14 years.
05:49So,
05:51I was mad at him,
05:53and I even
05:55asked my dad for help.
05:57I asked him,
05:59Ask him, D, what happened?
06:01Okay, we'll ask him.
06:03What's the reason?
06:05Why did this happen?
06:07I asked him everything.
06:09I was left hanging.
06:11I didn't have
06:12an answer.
06:14Even my family,
06:16they don't care
06:18what my problem is.
06:20I became self-pity.
06:24Then,
06:26that's when it all started.
06:28My anger and pride piled up.
06:30I might as well say,
06:32No, if it's like this,
06:34we're on our own.
06:36So, I separated myself from them.
06:38For how many years?
06:40Four or five years.
06:42So,
06:44I drank a lot every day.
06:47I was really drunk every day.
06:49I was really drunk.
06:51I ruined my life.
06:53I just enjoyed it.
06:55I didn't care about my family.
06:57I just got rid of my job.
06:59I just enjoyed it.
07:01I let go of my life.
07:03I destroyed it.
07:05Then, in 2024,
07:08I realized
07:10that,
07:12from the scripture,
07:14and then from Facebook,
07:16and then,
07:18one of my churchmates,
07:20I attended a church there.
07:22We were in Victory.
07:24So, he saw that I was alone there.
07:26But,
07:28I attended for the sake of listening.
07:30But,
07:32my heart wasn't there.
07:34So,
07:36he just saw me.
07:37I was alone at the back.
07:39So, I said,
07:41I'll just attend.
07:43Then, he just invited me for coffee.
07:46Without me knowing,
07:48he became the vessel
07:50of the Lord
07:52to lead me
07:54to the right path
07:56and to wake me up to the truth.
07:59After that,
08:01we talked for about five hours.
08:03It was fun.
08:05I testified to him.
08:07He was the one I told.
08:09Instead of family
08:11that I couldn't run to or tell,
08:13he was the one I listened to.
08:15He became the instrument
08:17to listen to me.
08:19So, I cried to him.
08:21I told him everything.
08:23Then,
08:25he shared verses with me
08:27so that I could realize.
08:29So, that's how it started.
08:31I said,
08:33Lord, if this is your will,
08:35in 2024,
08:37whatever I go through,
08:39I surrender it all to you.
08:41It's not me anymore.
08:43It's you, more of you.
08:45Just lead me, guide me,
08:47and ask for the Holy Spirit
08:49to flow upon me.
08:51Wherever you take me,
08:53it's up to you.
08:55You're the creator of everything.
08:57So, just lead me.
08:59I'll follow you.
09:01So, it happened.
09:08I'll follow you.
09:10I'll follow you.
09:12I'll follow you.
09:14I'll follow you.
09:16I'll follow you.
09:18I'll follow you.
09:20I'll follow you.
09:22I'll follow you.
09:24I'll follow you.
09:26I'll follow you.
09:28I'll follow you.
09:30I'll follow you.
09:32I'll follow you.
09:34I'll follow you.
09:35I'll follow you.
09:37I'll follow you.
09:39I'll follow you.
09:41I'll follow you.
09:43I'll follow you.
09:45I'll follow you.
09:47I'll follow you.
09:49I'll follow you.
09:51I'll follow you.
09:53I'll follow you.
09:55I'll follow you.
09:57I'll follow you.
09:59I'll follow you.
10:05I'll follow you.
10:07I'll follow you.
10:09I'll follow you.
10:11I'll follow you.
