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.”

SINGING CAREER. Kumusta naman ang career niya bilang singer-recording artist?

“Oh, we just started. We released the album March. And we just re-launched it in ASAP

“It’s out on mymusic.com, iTunes, any record stores. It’s called Overwait and there are two singles now—'In 3’s'…

“And we just released my other single, 'Smile,' which I just sang a while ago.”

Hindi itinatanggi ni Robin na may impluwensiya ang kanyang Mommy at Daddy sa kanyang pagkanta.

“Of course naman. I mean, ever since I was a baby, everything around me was singing, music, tours, albums, recordings.

“So I’ve experienced it and I wanna see if I can do it. So, that’s what I’m here now.

“Hindi siya acoustic. I have a band. Parang rock ako, pero hindi siya masyadong rock.

“More blues, more jazz. Malayo sa genre ng Mommy at Daddy ko,” pagdi-detalye niya sa kanyang singing style.


NOT LIVING TOGETHER. Noong kumustahin namin si Robin ang mommy niya, sinabi niyang okay naman silang dalawa.

Ibinalita ng PEP na maluha-luha ang Mommy Pops niya sa interview ni Gladys Reyes sa talk show nitong Moments sa Net25.

Doon napag-usapan ang pagkasabik ni Pops sa kanyang mga anak.

Sabi ni Robin, “Oh, because we don’t live in the same house anymore. I live in an apartment.

“So she lives at home in her house and I finally lived out. It’s been maybe a year and half now.

“I’m 25 now! Time to move on!” natawa niyang sabi.

“But I have lunch with her every day, we have dinner every Sunday.

    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.
