00:00After the sharing, Michelle gave Clarice another kiss.
00:04Thank you!
00:05Thank you!
00:06Finally!
00:07Actually, when I saw you,
00:09I was thinking,
00:11when is it?
00:12Because I really planned to see you.
00:13I just don't know when.
00:15It hurts.
00:16Is this a sign?
00:18That's what I was thinking.
00:19Besides, I took a bath for her.
00:21I feel so proud, Kuya,
00:24that I'm able to stand as an inspiration
00:29and a source of strength
00:31to disclose something as big as that.
00:34Finally!
00:35It's in the T-shirt.
00:36I'm so feeling it.
00:37I know the fear that you'll also go through that.
00:40The fear that it's also hard
00:42to make it come true
00:44because of the industry,
00:46where we are.
00:47I remember when I decided to come out.
00:49It was hard for you?
00:50I never planned to.
00:52I was competing in Miss Universe back then.
00:55I wanted my advocacy to shine.
00:58I didn't want to use queerbaiting.
01:01Yes, that's true.
01:02I didn't want that.
01:03And I never planned to come out before Miss Universe.
01:06It just so happened that my bashers
01:09found my high school photos.
01:11Really?
01:12The ones that I hid for a long time.
01:14In the trunk?
01:15So I was forced
01:18to take control over the story
01:20because of what people invented.
01:23Through my story, through my experiences,
01:27I was given the strength to come out.
01:30Finally!
01:31I'm sure your partner is very excited
01:33because she's so excited.
01:36I hope so!
01:37And I'm even happier that after she was able to do that,
01:40she told me that she felt lighter.
01:43Finally, after four years, she did it.
01:46She felt when she first saw me,
01:49it was a sign from the universe that she would do it.
01:52And that's all I wanted to do.
01:54Moments like this that validate
01:57Four years!
01:58Four years, for sure.
01:59It's a secret.
02:00And I had a hard time.
02:01Sometimes, on-air, they'd ask me,
02:03you know,
02:04ah, nothing, nothing.
02:06I'd just pass by the comedy.
02:08But, of course, it's painful.
02:10It's painful because she's out.
02:13As long as I can inspire one person,
02:15I can sleep well at night.
02:18I'm so happy.
