Showbiz Central Interview After being voted out by my Jarakay tribe members in the first season of the Philippines' franchise of the hugely popular US reality show, Survivor, I was set to make my rounds on GMA's show circuit. The interview by John Lapuz on Showbiz Central was the first of many showbiz appearances that gave me that coveted 15-minutes of fame that Andy Warhol so talked about.
Ending Thoughts After this initial appearance, I appeared in nearly all the shows of GMA - Unang Hirit, DZMM and DZLS Radio, Sweet Life, SuvivorPhilippines.tv (with Paolo Bediones), Walang Tulugan (with German Moreno), Maldita, All Star K (with Allan K, Jaya, Cristine Reyes), Pocket Press Conference, Nuts Entertainment (with Joey de Leon), gala premiere of Quantum of Solace, QTV's Moms and Quickfire(with Chef Rosebud), and the all-star cast appearance for the Survivor Finale.

Raisa (Oct. 5, 2008) Saw your interview at Channel 7. Twas so you. ha-ha. Was really surprised that you were chosen to leave the tribe. You were, I think, the greatest threat in the group.
Andrew (Sep 28, 2008) That is beyond cool man. Let me know if there is a way I can watch episodes online somewhere. Even if I can't understand what you guys are saying, I can at least watch the competitions. Keep Burning!
