At the media conference for the upcoming Vivamax sexy film, Tubero, with the press, including LionhearTV, on September 29, Viva stars Vince Rillon, Angela Morena, Jem Milton, and Alona Navarro shared their thoughts on the workers offering sexual favors or ‘extra service.’
Navarro urged people not to judge these workers.
“Sa akin po, okay naman kung mag-ooffer ng extra kasi hindi natin pwedeng ijudge ‘yung tao di ba? Just because of his work, pero ‘yun, para sa akin iba-iba po tayo ng pananaw. I don’t judge those kinds of services.”
Milton agreed with Navarro, citing that workers offering ‘extra service’ are doing what they can to survive.
“If ‘yun ‘yung diskarte ng ibang tao na mag-extra, so– kasi doon naman nila nakukuha ‘yung kailangan nila for everyday, so wala tayong kailangan masabi or ma-judge laban sa kanila.”
Morena noted that it could be a blessing or a mistake for those purchasing ‘extra service.’
“Para sa akin, ‘yung mga nag-ooffer ng extra service, they are either a blessing or a mistake, kasi siyempre bago mo i-purchase ‘yung extra service na ‘yun kailangan mo talagang pag-isipan ng madaming beses kasi hindi biro na alam mo ‘yun, ia-avail mo ‘yung extra service. Lalo na sa story na ‘to. There’s nothing wrong naman kung go-go ka sa extra service, basta sa huli wala kang pagsisihan at dapat buo ‘yung desisyon mo para gawin ‘yung extra service na ‘yun.”
Rillon related his character to workers offering sexual favors and the daily struggles they face.
“Sa akin bilang Gimo, siguro nangyayari ‘yung ganon, lalo na sa panahon natin ngayon pag kailangan mo talagang dumiskarte. So mai-ooffer at mai-ooffer mo lalo na kung medyo kaakit-akit ‘yung mga, kumbaga ‘yung mga mangyayari na kumbaga hindi mo inaasahan. So baka po siguro dahil–lalo na kung magagawa ng isang tao ‘yun, maaring mayroon siyang problema sa pamilya, sa income, di ba?”
Movie director Topel Lee also shared his thoughts regarding these workers, calling for people to respect each other.
“Right now, people are struggling. You’ll do everything to make ends meet, so kanya-kanyang diskarte and you need to respect each other.”
The sexy Vivamax sexy film, directed by Topel Lee, will be available for early premiere via Vivamax Plus on October 17 and becomes available for streaming on the platform on October 21.
