00:54.0
English-ing? So, ibig sabihin, may foreign na naman tayong kasama?
00:58.7
Oo, di ba? Kaya mga kabisyong online, mag-comment na kayo dito at i-share ang live na to.
01:05.1
At huwag na natin itong patagalin pa, like super legit and all.
01:08.5
Kasi naligo ako for this. Naligo ka for this?
01:11.6
Yes, and I've memorized my skit on introducing this artist.
01:16.1
So, eto na nga mga kabisyong.
01:18.2
His music is fueled by authenticity.
01:21.5
Something that has become apparent with his unfiltered, heart-on-sleeve lyrics
01:28.7
And hand-crafted visuals.
01:32.3
Oh, visual artsy!
01:34.0
His viral bop, Stupid in Love.
01:36.7
Talagang sumika dito dito sa Pilipinas.
01:38.7
And within the Philippines alone, the track has already achieved over 3 million streams.
01:51.1
Kaya without further ado, mga kabisyong, kailangan pa bang i-memorize to?
01:55.1
Please welcome, Max!
01:59.6
What a beautiful intro.
02:04.3
We heard that this is your second time, I guess.
02:07.3
Second time, yes.
02:07.9
Here in the Philippines.
02:09.0
So, how is it so far?
02:10.9
The food's amazing.
02:11.8
Everybody can sing, it seems like.
02:13.3
I went to this restaurant just now.
02:15.2
It was the singing chefs and waiters.
02:17.4
And every single person could sing.
02:19.3
So, I'm having a great time.
02:20.4
Welcome to the Philippines.
02:22.0
I appreciate you.
02:24.3
But, you know what, Max?
02:26.3
Our fans and even us.
02:28.7
We've noticed that collaboration plays a significant role in your music.
02:34.3
So, how do you choose the artist you want to work with?
02:38.7
It's always organic and natural.
02:40.7
I feel like it has to be an artist that I love their music.
02:43.7
And when I meet them, then we get along really easily.
02:47.1
And so, that's been the consistent thing, I'd say.
02:49.6
And I'm so proud and grateful for the artists I've gotten to work with, which is one of my favorite things.
02:58.4
But, you know what?
02:59.7
When we entered the studio, I really felt, you know, the authenticity, the vibe of Max, no?
03:05.7
So, it really reflects on your taste, you know, the partnership that you want with your collaborations with other artists.
03:14.3
I'm an only child.
03:15.5
I go by one name.
03:16.5
And so, I just like to collaborate.
03:18.3
I just want to do collaborations, you know?
03:20.9
Yeah, the energetic one, you know?
03:24.9
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
03:26.0
Now, for my next question.
03:28.4
I heard that Bruno Mars, Justin Timberlake, and Ed Sheeran are your music inspirations.
03:34.4
So, if you were given a chance to choose among the three, who would you choose to collab with and why?
03:43.3
Bruno Mars is a short king like myself.
03:45.6
So, I'm biased towards that and I love him.
03:48.1
But, I do think Ed Sheeran and I would make a really special love song together, you know?
03:52.5
I think we would.
03:53.7
Especially on love.
03:56.6
I got goosebumps.
04:00.9
We've met a few times.
04:01.7
He's a wonderful guy.
04:03.4
So, let's manifest it.
04:05.1
Let's go, Ed Sheeran and Max.
04:10.0
Yes, Max Sheeran.
04:11.8
Yeah, but you know, Max, beyond music and acting, you're also known for your advocacy work,
04:17.2
particularly in mental health awareness.
04:19.0
Can you tell us more about this cause?
04:22.8
Why is this so important to you?
04:25.3
Oh, I mean, I'm a big advocate for therapy or whatever.
04:28.4
Anybody needs meditation, whatever you need for your mental health.
04:30.9
But, yeah, it saved my life in so many ways.
04:33.6
I've definitely, I seem very happy, but there's definitely some times where I get very depressed
04:37.2
and I think that the therapy has made me really accept myself and love myself more deeply.
04:42.8
And I think everybody deserves to love themselves for who they are and that helps with mental
04:50.0
I think that's the main reason as to why the Filipino audience resonate with you and your
04:55.0
music because you talk to them through your music.
04:58.4
As an artist, you are really a storyteller.
05:03.8
It's getting hot.
05:06.2
And for sure, our audience would want to know you more, but in a fun, exciting way.
05:13.4
And since it's really hot here in the Philippines, we should do an icebreaker.
05:20.9
So this game is very new.
05:24.3
It's called Filipino Tongue Twister.
05:28.4
And these sentences are in Filipino.
05:30.6
But don't worry, we're going to help you.
05:32.4
I'm not saying anything too naughty, right?
05:36.4
I don't know what I can say on the radio.
05:38.2
So we're going to give you the first one and then you'll try to say it three times.
05:43.4
So the first one is,
06:19.9
As fast as you can.
06:21.3
This is a card, Joe.
06:34.5
What does it mean?
06:36.4
It's about the chick.
06:38.2
It's a small chick in a container
06:40.9
where Susan opens
06:46.5
Filipinos are very complicated.
06:51.1
No, let's move on.
06:54.1
For the second one,
07:07.7
ang relo ni Leroy
07:08.9
ay nagka luray-luray
07:11.9
ang relo ni Leroy
07:17.6
ang relo ni Leroy
07:21.7
Now, as fast as you can.
07:23.1
ang relo ni Leroy
07:27.8
Oh, I like that item.
07:31.0
What does that mean?
07:32.5
The watch of Leroy has been broken.
07:36.5
So, you better replace it.
07:38.4
I gotta replace it.
07:40.6
Now, let's move on to the third one.
07:43.5
This is kind of hard.
07:46.6
But this is common.
07:57.7
Kabilugan ng buwan.
07:59.0
Buwan ng kabilugan.
08:01.5
Kabilugan ng buwan.
08:02.9
Buwan ng kabilugan.
08:06.5
Kabilugan ng buwan.
08:08.0
Buwan ng kabilugan.
08:11.6
Kabilugan ng buwan.
08:13.0
Buwan ng kabilugan.
08:16.7
Pretty much easy for you.
08:18.9
What does it mean?
08:20.0
It means full moon and the sky is full.
08:24.0
Yeah, that's right.
08:28.5
And now for the fourth one we have here.
08:30.8
Oh, this is really tricky.
08:33.3
He can do it once na lang because this is kind of difficult.
08:59.0
Now, the floor is yours.
09:01.0
Oh my God, I don't want the floor.
09:02.5
I don't want the floor.
09:03.0
Isang platitang puting pating
09:16.0
Nang puting putakita
09:26.0
What does it mean?
09:29.0
A whole new world,
09:30.0
a new horizon to person.
09:32.0
No, just kidding.
09:33.0
There's a battle between a white shark and a wasp.
09:38.0
And they did the battle in the white wall.
09:41.0
And they died together.
09:42.0
They died together.
09:48.0
Hey but that was fun!
09:49.0
That was really fun.
09:52.0
Our audience are going crazy right now.
09:55.0
Yeah, you can actually do it when
09:58.8
it's like a warm-up.
10:05.0
to getting to know you more.
10:10.2
you released your album
10:15.4
If you could describe
10:22.8
what would they be
10:31.9
that feels right.
10:32.6
It melted my heart.
10:35.5
You're still there.
10:36.4
You're not melting.
10:38.7
You deserve it, queen.
10:44.8
And it really resonates
10:50.0
you used to do tours
10:51.4
with Fall Out Boys.
10:59.6
that you are doing
11:00.4
a three-night show
11:01.7
here in the Philippines,
11:03.2
who would you choose
11:04.8
But please don't choose me.
11:06.5
What am I gonna do now?
11:11.3
is my friend, Keshi.
11:12.3
It would be amazing
11:12.8
to do shows with Keshi
11:14.9
And I just love him
11:15.8
and he's the best.
11:17.5
would be a very fun show.
11:21.0
that it's really fun,
11:23.8
with your loved ones.
11:27.5
It makes it even more special.
11:32.8
that the Filipino audience
11:34.4
would want to know you more.
11:36.2
So, can you invite
11:37.7
the Filipino audience
11:38.7
where to follow you,
11:40.6
where we can watch you more,
11:42.7
listen to you more?
11:43.5
You can watch me live
11:44.7
tonight, tomorrow,
11:49.3
I've never done mall shows
11:50.3
so it's gonna be really exciting
11:57.3
I keep forgetting the names.
11:59.7

12:04.8
So, I'm excited for those

let's have a glimpse
12:18.5
of what's gonna happen tonight.
12:21.5
Max, can you sing
12:23.3

12:29.5
I feel like that's the one.
12:31.9
Cause I'm so stupid in love
12:33.9
Let's get married in Vegas
12:36.2
We don't need a guest list
12:37.8
I don't wanna thank so much

Let's get matching tattoos
12:41.8
I don't wanna think it through, baby
12:43.7
I'm so stupid in love
12:45.5
So stupid in love with you

13:14.1
because we love you.
13:22.1
I'm trying to remember.
13:27.8
So you should eat halo-halo.
13:30.8
Do we have that yet?
13:37.8
Okay, I'm gonna try more.
13:39.8
Any final message
13:40.8
to all your Filipino fans?
13:41.8
Thank you, Philippines.
