In a world brimming with snap judgments and social media buzz, misconceptions about celebrities can spread faster than wildfire. We often see only the surface of our favorite stars, leading to a lot of misunderstandings about who they really are. But what happens when the truth is way more interesting than the myths?We caught up with some of our beloved Kapamilya stars to debunk the biggest misconceptions about them and reveal what they wish everyone knew. Ready for some eye-opening truths? Read on and check out this exclusive video from <a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/" target="_blank">ent.abs-cbn.com</a>!Maymay Entrata might be known for her bubbly and wacky persona on “<a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/pbbgen112024" target="_blank">Pinoy Big Brother</a>,” but there’s more to her than that. While she lights up the screen with her extroverted energy, Maymay admits she’s actually quite shy and reserved in real life. She’s only outgoing when she’s comfortable with the people around her. After years in showbiz, Maymay has mastered the art of turning on and off her sociable side.Jessy Mendiola often encounters the assumption that she’s mataray or snobbish. She clarifies that she can be stern only when it involves her family’s comfort and safety, “Kunwari, if tungkol sa anak ko or asawa ko tapos nakikita kong hindi sila komportable, aawayin ko talaga ‘yung taong ‘yun.” She is not cold or unfriendly and is actually open to casual conversations and interactions.Allan Pangilinan of “<a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/articles-news/pilot-episode-of-sparks-camp-s2-trends-captures-viewers-from-us-canada-and-middle-east-22724" target="_blank">Sparks Camp Season 2</a>” is frequently misinterpreted as aloof. He wants to set the record straight by explaining that while he might come off as distant initially, it’s just because he takes time to warm up to new people. Once you get to know him, you’ll find that he genuinely cares and is easy to get along with.Similarly, his fellow camper Miggy Ruallo might come across as someone who doesn’t like to socialize, but once he warms up, you’ll be surprised by his chatty nature. Even Paco Laurel often finds himself misunderstood as suplado. Although he’s not affected by this misconception, he wants to set the record straight that it’s simply not true.Angela Ken wants to change the perception that she&#x27;s just a sweet, soft-melody artist. She believes she has much more to offer and acknowledges that some fans see her as only about gentle music. She promises that in time, she&#x27;ll step out of her comfort zone and explore different sounds.Nyoy Volante is aware of the many misconceptions about him. When people get to know him better, they often realize that he&#x27;s actually quite playful, contrary to the serious image they see.Just because he’s from Los Angeles, people think that “<a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/articles-news/pilot-episode-of-sparks-camp-s2-trends-captures-viewers-from-us-canada-and-middle-east-22724" target="_blank">Spark Camp Season 2</a>”’s Universe Ramos had an easy and smooth-sailing privileged life. However, the truth is that he faced significant challenges, including a lack of financial support from his parents, and fought hard to achieve his success. Universe is proud of everything he has overcome to get to where he is today.“Mukha ba akong masungit?” asks singer-songwriter Maki, who often gets this impression from people. He explains that he’s naturally bashful when it comes to initiating conversations. So, don’t be fooled by his reserved demeanor; he’s just a bit shy!Interestingly, people assume that Jason Dy is a high-maintenance guy. But the truth is, he’s game for anything. He’s down-to-earth and enjoys simple things like a turo-turo food trip!Many believe that Bayani Agbayani is serious off-camera and only shows his comedic side when the cameras are rolling. However, his friends and family can confirm that the joyful and fun-loving Bayani we see on TV is the same person he is in real life. As he puts it, “Kasi ang pagiging masaya, naniniwala ako na dapat continuous ‘yan, eh. Hindi lang trabaho sa akin ang pagpapasaya ng tao kundi commitment. Ito po ‘yung nagpapataba at nagpapasigla ng puso ko.”Ever heard the judgment that people who love partying can&#x27;t be smart? Kyle Adlawan from <a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/articles-news/pilot-episode-of-sparks-camp-s2-trends-captures-viewers-from-us-canada-and-middle-east-22724" target="_blank">“Sparks Camp Season 2”</a> is living proof that this assumption is far from the truth. He enjoys clubs and partying, but that doesn’t mean he lacks wisdom or is shallow. You can be both smart and love to party!Loisa Andalio feels that many people perceive her as a “jejemon.” While she’s not bothered by this, she attributes this image to her being a simple girl who is true to herself.Keanna Reeves is no longer affected by judgments and assumptions. She understands that she can’t please everyone and isn’t going to change herself based on what others say. After all, she proved who she really is inside the “<a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/pbbgen112024" target="_blank">Pinoy Big Brother</a>” house, where her authenticity led her to emerge as the Big Winner.“<a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/goinbulilit" target="_blank">Goin’ Bulilit</a>” and “<a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/itsshowtime" target="_blank">It’s Showtime</a>” kid Argus Aspiras is aware that some people think he has Korean lineage because of his facial features.KD Estrada might seem shy at first, but get to know him, and you&#x27;ll discover his playful side. The same goes for Klarisse De Guzman, who people might think is quiet, but in reality, she’s quite lively and outspoken.Meanwhile, Seichi Ozaraga revealed that some people think he’s evil. It’s a harsh and judgmental assumption, don’t you think? We hope people get to know Seichi better by watching him in “<a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/articles-news/pilot-episode-of-sparks-camp-s2-trends-captures-viewers-from-us-canada-and-middle-east-22724" target="_blank">Sparks Camp Season 2</a>.” They’ll discover that he’s not a bad person but someone who simply wants to live life freely.Often cast in kontrabida roles, like her recent character Jill in “<a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/2good2betrue" target="_blank">2 Good 2 Be True</a>,” Alyssa Muhlach is frequently perceived as ‘maldita.’ However, she knows how to separate her acting roles from her real life. Watch her interviews, and you’ll see that Alyssa is actually the total opposite of the villainous characters she portrays.Luis Manzano’s career as a host and comedian might lead people to assume he’s chatty all the time. In reality, he’s a balanced mix of introvert and extrovert. He doesn’t always have his energy on full blast and enjoys his quiet moments as well.Maybe it’s because of her chinita eyes that Frenchie Dy is often perceived as ‘masungit,’ but that’s far from the truth. Her demeanor might seem stern at first glance, but she’s actually warm and approachable.People might think Bailey May doesn’t know how to speak Tagalog because of his British heritage. However, you’d be surprised at how well he speaks the language when you hear him in conversation!If you think Robi Domingo is galante, he’d like to clarify with a smile that he’s actually kuripot because he’s saving diligently for the future.These stars are more than the roles they play or the images they project. They’re real people with genuine personalities, just waiting to be discovered beyond the glitter of fame. Next time you see them, remember these insights and keep an open mind.
