  1. Sa true lang, for me, kahit minsan mayabang to si Lea, ok lang kasi may maiyayabang talaga. Recognized yung talent nya eh, compared naman sa mga tiktokers/YTers na puro yabang lang

    1. She has something to show off kasi. Kahit magpaka diva pa cya, may K cya unlike sa ibang mayayabang na wala namang maiibuga... Tita Lea is indeed a Filipino icon.

    2. Pwede siyang magpakadiva pero di niya ginawa kasi super disciplined niya as an artist. Mas artist siya kesa celebrity

    3. I appreciate Lea’s bluntness and honesty. Tbh, I don’t think she’s mayabang at all. It’s just that she’s confident because she knows herself and worth. Grabe pa nga yung humility niya when she can easily say what she can’t do, what she doesn’t have, her limitations. Sanay lang siguro kasi tayo sa meek, yung tipong pa-humble but humility shouldn’t be mistaken as false display of lowering one’s worth. I like it when Lea accepts compliments and says thank you. That’s it. No arrogance in it.

    4. 12:49 Kaya sobrang respected siya in her field whether here or abroad kasi iba talaga yung work ethics niya. People want to work with her because she makes the work easy for all people involved.

    5. Mayabang talaga siya since kabataan niya. Dahil na rin yon sa confidence niya at mga accomplishments niya sa career at sa buhay in general.

      May mga ganyan talaga na tao. Lahat tayo iba iba. Wag masamain ang ugali ng ibang tao lalo kung wala naman ginagawang masama sa kapwa.

    6. @1:07 i agree with u, di sya mayabang lalo na sa achievements nya internationally. mahanash lang nman sya sa twitter pero its never about her, it is more like stating her opinions about certain social and political issues.

    7. 6:03 may distinction ang mayabang sa confident.

    1. Para sa sarili niya ang mga accomplishments niya, hindi para sa mga Pilipino. Kaya nga siya ang kumikita, hindi ikaw.

    1. is Hollywood your only measurement of legit talent? FYI, even in Hollywood or in US, there are many mediocre and ham talents.

    2. Have you seen RAG? nasa Hamilton na siya sa West End. Sana magka-Tony rin si RAG at some point.

    3. 1:11 i think si Rachel ay sa UK, not in US/Hollywood.

      Delete
    4. Si Charice hype lang at sa mga pinoy lang sya sikat

      Delete
    5. hindi na napanghawakan ni Charice yan, si Lea hanggang ngayon kilala pa din.

      Delete
    6. 11:02 Wag mo naman maliitin ang achievement ni Charice sa Us, regardless kung maliit na bagay lang yan sayo o hindi. Yung ibang artista, kahit extra at bit player lang sa mga major international movies, proud na ang iba, Si Charice pa kaya na nakipag rubbing elbows pa sa big names in US😒

  5. The western countries are already back to normal noh? Award shows, sporting events, fashion week, concerts. Tayo kaya when?

    1. But there's still threat of Delta variant. They're not as cautious as us and not as strict as our protocols.

      Delete
    2. Asa pa, puro lockdown at face shield lang ang ganap. Kulang pa ang supply ng bakunang maayos.

      Delete
    3. Lalo sporting events dikit dikit na mga tao sa mga coliseums or stadiums. Basta maayos ang pag pa takbo ng government nng mga states nila.

    4. Pero ang taas pa rin ng Covid cases sa kanila.

      Delete
    5. 8:31am yes mataas pa rin pero controlled nila at nama-manage nila kaya sila nakakapag events

      Delete
    6. Siguro dahil vaccinated na sila kaya wala na silang paki sa covid kahit taas parin ng cases sa kanila.

      Delete
    7. yes mataas parin anh covid cases sa US at madami na parin namatay.. di lang nababalita

      Delete
    8. 1:06, wrong ka. They are not back to normal. Yes, they have some of these events but they are held outdoors with very limited audiences, social distancing and only the fully vaccinated are allowed. Gets mo. Know the facts.

      Delete
    9. Many events / concerts require negative covid tests here kaya ganyan

  6. She will always be relevant. Icon na talaga siya. Madaming artists of Asian descent in the theater world ang nagsasabi na siya yung pioneer and she was such an inspiration to them. Kahit nga si Sutton Foster na American Tony winner, si Lea daw nag-inspire sa kanya when she was younger and she wanted to be like Lea.

  18. Oh my gosh. This post especially the comments makes me so happy! Ive been a Lea fan since sanrio /gift gate days and i cry ( im exagerating of course) kasi usually mas madami akong nababasa dito sa FP na nega comments, mayabang etc etc etc.. im so happy na finally people are understanding her, that she’s not mayabang nor full of herself, she’s confident, professional and speaks her mind. Thats how she is, it doesnt make her a bad person. I had the privilege of meeting her at the voice’s back stage and she was all smiles and even shook my hand. Syempre ako dumbfound, made a complete fool out of my self. Regretting it to this day, hahah

    1. Madalas misunderstood siya because they think she’s arrogant only because she speaks her mind. Sa totoo lang for her stature, she has remained very humble. Di ko talaga siya makitaan ng ‘ere’. Napaka-simple pa. I love the fact that she’s not materialistic. She gives more value to the things that really ‘matter’.

  19. Wow!!! CONGRATS❤❤❤❤
