I've known what it's like to survive without a steady job. Growing up in the Philippines, I watched my parents juggle part-time jobs at the corner shop and as tailors, barely able to make ends meet for my three brothers and me.

The Journey guys were so warm and friendly. I'm learning a lot from them.

I try to avoid gaining weight as much as possible because it hinders my performance onstage. Touring demands so much energy.

I have a foundation where it caters to street children and entices them to go back to school. The street is not a good school for them. They need to go to a proper school.

You can't just say, 'God help me,' and he's there. It takes a little bit more work on the part of the individual, I think.

I know many Catholics love God with all their heart. I have genuine respect for anyone who truly has given their life to Christ. We read about Mother Teresa and what a wonderful example she was.

We observe that in the scriptures, fasting almost always is linked with prayer. Without prayer, fasting is not complete fasting; it's simply going hungry.

My kids are at a point in their lives where I'm a moral compass for them. God help them both.
