I'm just like the reversing of directions and it takes so much control but I love it [Music] man one of the biggest challenge I've experienced as a performer um I I think that just perseverance I don't know I mean I feel like when I started as a little wee one trying to like get agents I was always too ethnic and people want to put you in a box and I don't like boxes so for me it's the challenge is keeping myself doing new things but I love that who wants to see somebody do the same thing over and over again it's like you got to mix it up keep it fresh what it's for what charity and and kind of what the money is gonna go to yeah so Hollywood Foreign Press gave the cheque of $100,000 it's amazing to UNICEF so that is going to help the kids it is going to help them though they have a couple of schools so that they can continue their education to immunisations for health keep them fed just help the kids which is my love so I am so so happy and grateful they did that what did it mean to you that with the Hollywood Foreign Press Association asking you to come and be kind of the face and to accept the check on behalf it means so so much to me I mean it really is an honor I I want to try to help as much as I can just because it's so close to home for me being Filipino my mom's from the Philippines so it really is an honor I'm so grateful what's your message for those watching this and the Philippines that are being affected what's your message to them my goodness just continue to stay strong you guys are a beautiful beautiful country and and all my love and prayers are out for you and I think that a lot of prayers all over the world are being said for the Philippines so hopefully they feel the love a couple of fun questions christmas is coming up do you do any Filipino traditions for Christmas or their family or I mean we don't I'm going to go ask my mom not to make me some punset in lufia because it's been a long time my mom doesn't cook very often she needs Syria your birthday's coming up what's like the one thing you want to do or ask for for your birthday I know you seem pretty excited about it I am um I just want to be with all my friends I don't know I'm excited I feel like I'm really inspired and I'm coming into my own and it's just an exciting time exciting times you have a movie coming out can you tell us about that because it's kind of a different role for you yeah it's called give me shelter I play a young teen who is pregnant and just it's her struggle for survival and it's an amazing metamorphosis she starts out as this this teenager who is just really resistance of life and she turns into a mother and it's a really amazing story and hopefully it'll shed light on the subject that hasn't been touched much and then lastly if you could I know your schedule is busy would you like to go over to the Philippines and maybe help out I mean I know it's not easy to just jump on a plane but I mean I I would if I can I mean what they're they just need so I just want to help as much as I can that's all that I know happy birthday coming up and thank you so much thank you
