Robin Nievera loses weight to shift from being DJ to recording artist: “Everyone wants to look good, and I went through an ugly phase!”

Robin Nievera shares his experiences living separately from his parents: “But I have lunch with her [mom Pops Fernandez] every day, we have dinner every Sunday. When my dad’s [Martin Nievera] here, we have dinner with him.”

At ang ama naman ni Robin na si Martin Nievera ay medyo tumaba ng kaunti ngayon.

“Hehehe… you said that. Don’t quote me, be careful," biro niya sa amin.

Natatawang itinanggi ni Robin na nadagdagan ng timbang ang daddy niya.

“Well, he’s [Martin] not fat. He’s 50.

“You know you have to give… someone like that, who still works every single day… credit for still looking like he does.

“But I never… I didn’t ask help from them. They still make fun of me for not eating rice.

“Kasi before, kumakain ako ng kanin all the time. Now, I’m trying to stop.  So, they still make fun of me for not eating.

“I still eat. I still love to eat food. It’s just that I’m trying to be healthier. I just wanna look a little better.

“Now, to answer your question? None of them!” sabay tawa niya.

“I work out by myself,” dugtong niya.

“You know they’re very busy. I’ve seen my mom work out. I’ve seen my dad work out.

“So, equally, I’ve been in the gym and at diet with the both of them equally.

“But it wasn’t about them. It’s just about how much I wanted to do it.”


Hindi raw ganoon kadali ang ginawang pagpapapayat o paglu-lose ng weight ni Robin.

“Yeah, sobrang hirap—super hirap. I love to eat, e. Especially rice. When you eat Filipino food, kanin-kanin-kanin.

“I have to try to eat adobo, crispy… yun lechon... walang rice! Hirap niyan!” paliwanag niya sa kanyang diet regimen.

    ugly is in the eye of the beholder. with confidence, anything is possible. pero pano yung talentless phase, dumadaan ka ba non? bat kasi halos lahat ng celebrity kids nagsisiksikan sa showbusiness. di pa kayo pwedeng mag-aral magdoktor o engineer o plumber?

    jeez, some people are so shallow, kailangan bang lahat pang matinee idol? he's a musician, he doesn't have to look like piolo or anyone with a pretty face. tingnan niyo sa hollywood, ang mga rockers musician, si bon jovi lang ata ang may hitsura but their talent is enough to speak for themselves. learn to appreciate talent hindi yung puro mukha ang nakikita niyo.

    Why can't the children of Martin and Gaby find other careers? They don't have the looks or the talent or the charisma to do well in the limelight. The only reason they get any publicity or project is because of their parents, no more, no less.
