“Bata pa lang po ako gusto ko na talaga mag artista para sa pamilya ko sinasabi nga po ng parents ko na bata pa lang ako gusto ko na pumasok sa loob ng box. Ito talaga ang pangarap ko pero may pagkakataon mainit ang panahon nakakapagod pero babalik at babalik ka pa rin dito sa una mong ginagawa. I’m grateful kasi para talaga ito sa family ko (Eversince I wanted to be an actress my parents told me that I really wanted to be on TV. There are also struggles along the way, but you will always go back),” Miles said.
The lead star of Padyak Princess also recalled the chapter in her life where she felt low and almost gave up.
“Aaminin po ako pinagdaanan ko yan after my operation grabe bloated talaga ako sobrang depressing lalo na sa trabaho natin dapat lagi tayo presentable kailangan ganito ang weight natin kumbaga may template palagi ang itsura ng isang artista so di mo talaga maiiwasan dumaan doon sa anu ba yan napapagod na ako parang lagi ko na lang pinoproblema ang weight ko (I admit I went through a depression because of my weight. Its hard to be in this job, there is a template on how one should look and it’s unavaoidable to feel depressed if you’re gaining weight),” she said.
