Ito kasi parang </i>more on profiling. <i>Na-ta-</i>touch<i> namin ng konti yung</i> topic <i>na pinaka</i>-chismis or <i>intriga pero </i>profiling a<i>ng ginagawa namin. </i>So <i>ganun pa rin, pero mas susubukan namin kumuha pa ng mas </i>interesting<i> na mga </i>i-interview-<i>hin at pag may pumutok pa na chismis, may pumutok pa na intriga, sisikapin namin makuha </i>both sides<i> kasi ganun naman kami eh, laging</i> we present two sides of the story. <i>Mas</i> fair, <i>basta kung ano lang yung naibigan ng mga tao, ganun pa rin ang patuloy naming gagawin</i>,” she shared.</div><div><br/></div><div>The mestiza beauty said her twins Cassandra and Maverick have already gotten used to her busy work schedule. “<i>Parang sanay naman sila. </i>Every time <i>na gumagawa naman ako ng panibagong </i>show I tell them what I’m going to do. <i>Ngayon nga parang sanay na sila</i> and they ask me things like, ‘Who are you going to interview?’ or<i> parang</i> like<i> nung </i>Black Saturday they asked ‘Do you have <i>SIR</i> today?’ So <i>parang alam na talaga nila yung </i>schedule<i> ko</i>,” she admitted.</div><div><br/></div><div>Carmina said she can’t deny that her daughter Cassie looks interested in following in her footsteps. “Feeling<i> ko parang dun talaga siya papunta kasi nag</i>-vo-voice lessons, <i>nag-aral siya sa</i> G-Force,<i> nag-da</i>-dancing lessons, piano lessons. <i>Tapos siyempre kahit papaano nabihasa na rin sa </i>commercials so <i>kung dun siya papunta, hindi ako magtataka. Wala naman akong </i>choice<i> basta mag-aral lang siya. Yun lang ang</i> condition <i>ko, tapusin lang yung pag-aaral, huwag niyang papabayaan. Parang magkapatid na nga kami eh</i> (laughs). This coming school year grade 7 <i>na siya</i>,” Carmina said.</div><div><br/></div><div>She also revealed their mother-daughter bonding moments at home. “We go swimming together, <i>mga ganun. Kasi kami naman ni Cassandra, kami namang mag-anak, hindi naman namin kailangang gumastos para mag</i>-bonding <i>kasi mahilig siya magbasa,</i> so <i>minsan andun lang ako sa</i> room <i>niya, chika-chikahan lang kasi madaldal din yung anak ko parang ako.</i> So we talk about everything and anything under the sun. <i>Kahit anu-ano lang eh. Nagbabasa kami</i> together,<i> nag-e</i>-exchange <i>kami ng mga</i> views <i>kung ano ba mga magandang </i>books, <i>nanunuod kami ng </i>movies together, <i>mga ganun lang eh. mahilig kami kumain sa labas. Minsan pag may time naman ako, nag-be</i>-bake <i>kami</i> together. We bake cookies,” she shared.</div><div><br/></div><div>The 37-year-old mother of two said she is glad her kids are not yet at the age where they have crushes in showbiz. “<i>Yung mga anak ko, mga bata pa talaga eh. Kasi si Cassandra ang gusto talaga niya</i> One Direction <i>pero yung sa </i>local <i>wala eh. Alam mo naman ang mga kabataan, di ba</i> One Direction<i> talaga? Yung anak kong lalake parang wala eh, wala pa. Naku sana wala pa</i> (laughs),” she said.</div><div><br/></div><div>On the topic on whether she and husband Zoren Legaspi plan to have more children, Carmina said it is not definite. “<i>Naku parang hindi na yata. Baka hindi na kasi medyo malayo na yung </i>age gap eh. <i>Gusto ko sana pero mukhang malayo na eh</i>. We’re not really trying <i>pero pag dumating eh di sige</i> open <i>naman kami. Pero kung hindi naman </i>okay <i>lang din</i>,” she added.</div><div><br/></div><div>Catch Carmina Villaroel along with co-hosts Janice de Belen and Ogie Diaz on<i> Showbiz Inside Report </i>every Saturday.
