On August 5, Viva artists Sean De Guzman and Cloe Barreto admitted they got turned on while filming their intimate scenes in The Influencer.
At the media conference for The Influencer with members of the entertainment press, including LionhearTV, De Guzman said getting turned on for their scene was ‘necessary’ for their portrayal.
“May eksena po doon na– ayun po pinakita naman po. Kasi, nire-require doon po sa eksena. Kailangan. Yes.”
Barreto agreed with De Guzman by saying, “Siguro po, doon sa scene na ‘yun, madadala ka. So yes.”
Before that, the two talked about their experience filming the sex scenes in The Influencer.Â
De Guzman said they would often laugh before, during, and after filming their sensitive scenes for the movie.
“Before the sex scene kasi, ‘yung mga nakakakilala sa aming dalawa, sobrang close na talaga kami ni Cloe, and sabay na kami halos lumaki sa management namin, sa 3:16. Ayun natatawa lang kami. And after sex scenes, nagtatawanan lang kami.”
He then cited the professionalism of the cast and how he and Barreto treat each other as siblings.
“Hindi namin inaasahan–hindi kami makapaniwala na kaya naming gawin ‘yun kasi ang turing namin sa isa’t isa, magkapatid talaga. And sobrang professional ng bawat isa kaya lahat sumasang-ayon, lahat nakikipag coordinate sa buong team. Wala akong masasabi sa lahat.”
Barreto recounted that they got called out by the director Louie Ignacio for not paying attention because they were laughing about their sex scene.
“Ayun po, puro tawanan lang po kami, mayroon pa nga pong scene, hindi po namin alam take na pala. Hindi namin naririnig, kasi nasa loob kami. Sabi ni Direk, ‘Hoy, take na!’ Tawa lang po kami ng tawa kasi kapag nandoon ka na parang hindi namin…”
