“Ako ay nagpapasalamat kay Kuya Jake. Nagpapasalamat ako sa buong staff, kay Direk. Minemake-sure nila na nasa safe space ako, na safe space ito and I don’t feel violated or exploited. I don’t feel offended in any way. Lagi akong sinasabihan ni Kuya Jake na ‘Let me know if hindi ka comfy’.”

She added, “Medyo awkward ng konti lang kasi ‘kuya-kuya’ ko siya. Nung dati kong naka-work ko siya, I was just 14 lang noon. Tinawanan na lang namin pero kasi parehas kaming aktor.”

Aside from "Batang Quiapo," Brillantes has been juggling her time with acting and being the CEO of her makeup brand Lucky Beauty. She said, it’s tough managing her time and attention to these two things.

“Bawal mag-phone sa set ng ‘Batang Quiapo’, I cannot not use my phone ‘cause nandun lahat ng trabaho ko, nandun 'yung Lucky Beauty. Ang hirap lang pag may pinagsasabay. Honestly, hindi talaga ako nahihirapan sa trabaho ko, kasi gusto ko talaga yung ginagawa ko,” she said.

Learning the in’s and out’s of business has been a fascinating time for Brillantes. “It’s fun 'coz I really love makeup and I love what I do. And I love the people in my work, I love my partners. Pero it’s also hard, ‘coz I’m not just a CEO, I’m also an actress, I’m also the breadwinner, it’s a lot of things. Pero masaya ako.”
