SANDRO MARCOS ON HANDLING HIS NEWFOUND FAME

“I’ve been away for so long since I also went to boarding school over there, and I think my parents are scared if I work in London, I’ll never come home,” he added laughing.

For a bit of trivia, Sandro also shared in a previous interview with The Manila Times that just like most college kids do in London, he would also work for extra money in his spare time. Luckily, his love for music afforded him a fun and profitable sideline as he would DJ for parties and get paid for his hobby.

Asked what career he sees himself choosing eventually, Sandro, who impressed large crowds when he spoke about his dad during the campaign over the summer, replied, “Naturally, everyone would think politics. At this point, I’ll just say I’m not opposed to it, so we’ll see.”

And with over a million Twitter followers and counting— a huge majority o f which seem to come from the opposite sex— talent agents, advertising executives as well as TV and movie producers also hope that Sandro would consider going into show business.

Brushing the idea aside, he simply said of his fame, “I’m overwhelmed by it; I don’t think about it too much because if you pay attention to it, and let all of it affect you, you won’t be able to carry on and be yourself.”

More humbly this time, the privileged Marcos added after a thoughtful pause, “But you know, I wouldn’t call it popularity, what they say about me. I’d call it support from so many Filipinos who believe in my dad.”
