Young actor Iñigo Pascual revealed that going blond is his personal attempt to reinvent and do “something new” with himself.
The 19-year-old said he wanted to project a different image, starting with his hair.
Pascual changed his hair color ahead of the launch of his self-titled album under Star Music.
“Siguro paglabas ng album ko I just wanted to do something new with myself. Siguro this is me showing who I really am. With my album, I wrote my songs and I guess this is my way of expressing my art, this is my way of expressing my music. I guess kung wala akong ibang gagawin, ano pa ang ibang maipapakita ko. I guess this is something different that I want to show,” he said.
Pascual admitted that he had to go through a laborious process before he decided to color his hair.
“To be honest, it was all my idea. Sobrang takot ako nung sinasabi ko sa management. Sabi ko, ‘Paano ko ba gagawin ito? Sino ba kakausapin ko muna?’ Siyempre I have my managers and my road managers and, of course, the bosses to talk to. Inisa isa ko ‘yan. So I went through a long process of trying to convince them,” he said.
Even his father, Piolo Pascual, disagreed with it at first. But later on, the young Pascual said his dad eventually liked his new look.
“He got used to it and was like, ‘I like that you’re doing that.’ Siyempre iba and I guess this is something na for some reason it gave me more confidence as who I am, the way I carry myself it’s more of who I am. It’s more fun I guess,” he said. (MNS)
