A recent online interview featuring Alvin Aragon — husband of former SexBomb member Izzy Trazona — ignited strong discussion across entertainment circles after he questioned parents who openly support their children’s identities.
The conversation, uploaded on 19 February to a YouTube program hosted by businessman Cris Rafael, quickly circulated online before a portion of it was later removed, but not before viewers captured and shared the remarks that drew attention from fans and personalities alike.
In the interview, Aragon challenged the idea of parental affirmation.
“Sasabihin mo, ‘Ang mabuting tatay, yung in-accept yung lalaki mong anak na nagpakabakla?’ Yun ba mabuting tatay? O ang mabuting tatay ay yung nagagalit kung bakit ka bakla? Eh lalaki ka na ginawa ng Diyos!”
He then cited public figures known for openly embracing their children.
“Sino ang mabuting tatay? Si Gloc-9, tuwang-tuwa, ginawan pa ng kanta yung anak niya. Yun ba ay kinalulugod ng Diyos? Palakpakan mo yung lalaki mong nagpakabakla? Woo! Si K Brosas, tuwang-tuwa. Si Ian Veneracion, tuwang-tuwa.”
Aragon contrasted this with his own stance.
“Tapos sino yung tumatayo na kung ano ang tama sa mata ng Diyos na huwag kang magpakabakla — kami ni Izzy — kami, masama? Kamusta, world? Pinapalakpakan natin yung mali? In-e-encourage niyo pa? Sasabihin niyo, love yun? I-accept?”
The statements quickly moved beyond a single interview, becoming part of a broader public discussion about parenting, belief, and acceptance in modern Filipino society.
The mention of well-known personalities — including Gloc-9, K Brosas, and Ian Veneracion — placed the topic squarely within mainstream entertainment discourse, prompting conversations online about differing views on family values and personal faith.
While reactions varied, the moment highlighted how celebrity interviews today rarely stay confined to a studio. Once uploaded, they become part of a larger social dialogue where belief, parenting, and public influence intersect.
What began as one guest appearance ultimately evolved into a national conversation — not only about opinions expressed, but about how public figures shape discussions that reach far beyond their immediate audience.
