The Amazing Race Asie, au moins pour ceux qui ne le suivent à la télévision, semble être le dernier endroit sur terre pour construire des liens d'amitié. C'est une féroce concurrence qui repose non seulement sur les équipes’ ensemble de compétences et de la vitesse, mais aussi sur un peu de déception. Il est facile de se frotter les autres équipes de la mauvaise façon car, bien, vous voulez rien de plus que pour les battre à la ligne d'arrivée.
Essayez de dire que, pour Marc et Paula Taylor Nelson.
Les deux célébrités internationales se sont réunis à la Race comme des concurrents. Marc a fait équipe avec son partenaire dans le crime tout en Rovilson Fernandez Paula a été rejoint par ses meilleurs amis Natasha Monks. Les concurrents au début, les deux - avec leurs partenaires - a heurté une certaine amitié pendant la course, qui a prolongé bien après le spectacle a pris fin.
Il a été près de deux ans depuis leur saison de The Amazing Race Asie a conclu, encore lorsque vous êtes autour de ces deux, il semble que les amis qu'ils ont été beaucoup plus longue que celle. Depuis le départ, il est vite devenu évident pourquoi ces deux s'entendent si bien. Witty Jabs sont échangées, sans que quiconque broncher. Wisecracks abondent dans la chambre, engloutissant avec bruyants rire.
As someone who has the unenviable task of listening to an interview for transcribing purposes, trust me when I say that the job becomes tougher when you listen to it and realize that half of the interview consists of hooting and hollering. It’s a transcribers’ worst nightmare, I tell you.
Néanmoins, la partie la plus difficile du travail devient plus facile à gérer quand on a deux personnes comme Marc et Paula capable d'éclairer n'importe quelle pièce ils marchent dans - not only because they’re good looking, mais aussi parce qu'ils ont des personnalités rayonnante. Individually, they’re two of the wittiest celebrities you’ll ever meet. And once you put them together in one room and the ribbing ensues, you’re going to have a tough time asking questions while rolling over in laughter.

Being on the road -sort of-with a lot of people in a competitive environment must have been a taxing experience for you?
It was challenging but it was a good kind of challenge because you go into the race not knowing what to expect and when you see those tasks lined up in front of you, Là bas;s really no time to think about what you can and can’t do. L'adrénaline sort tout simplement, et vous ne se réalise l'ampleur de ce que vous avez fait après que vous l'avez fait. At the end of the day, it was still a blast of an experience. And one thing that I’m thankful for with the race was all the friendships we’ve made with the other teams-not just from our season but with teams from other seasons as well.
You guys keep in contact with everyone?
Yes and we keep having reunions with most of the teams. The last reunion we had was in Singapore last May. It’s actually amazing to think that despite being in the competitive environment for a long time, we all ended up being friends in the end.
You’re an actress in Thailand, Droit?
Oui, Je suis. I’m a VJ and an actress over there.
Did you ever expect that because of The Amazing Race Asie, you’d end being as big-if not bigger-in the Philippines?
Pas du tout, I had no expectations whatsoever. Rejoindre The Amazing Race Asie was something I did for fun and we didn’t have any idea that it would open doors for me here in the Philippines. C'est quelque chose qui était vraiment inattendu et je suis très heureux de savoir qu'il a fini par la façon dont il a.
Thailand’s a long commute, HUH?
I’m actually still based in Thailand. I just go to the Philippines if I have commitments to make. Like this shoot!
Aww…Let’s talk about your sports. What are you good at?
I’ve always thought that I can hold my own in the pool, surtout contre quelqu'un comme Marc. I’ll just smoke him out of the water. (rires)
Have you been to any obscure places none of us have ever heard about?
traveling is one of my therapies! (rires) Some girls like to shop, some girls like to get their nails done. I like to travel!. I was in Istanbul earlier this year and last year I went to Egypt, Cambodia, and Zambia.
Off the top of you’re head, what’s the most memorable place you’ve been to?
Probably Zambia last year. We went on a safari and it was so amazing and breathtaking. It was probably one of the most surreal things anyone can ever experience. It was so like Le Roi Lion! (rires)
Haha! Le Roi Lion, HUH?
yeah! Vous êtes essentailly dépouillée de tout ce qui a trait à la technologie. And we stayed in the middle of nowhere for like ten days with wild animals to keep us company.
What’s the next on your to-go-to-list?
En fait, I want to go to Jordan. I’ve been reading about their country recently and it really piqued my curiosity on what their history is and their culture and all that. I’m big on those things, if you haven’t noticed. (rires)
Oh!, not at all!

How was life changed after doing TAR?
I feel very fortunate and blessed on the amount of work I had been getting before The Amazing Race Asie. As far as how things have changed after doing TAR, it has certainly opened a lot of doors for me and Rovilson. Nous avons reçu assez peu d'offres plus depuis, specifically to work together. I guess people enjoy seeing us joking around like idiots, and as a result, we now have a couple of shows together-Le duc on AXN and Dare Duo on QTV
Vous avez fait beaucoup d'amis dans The Amazing Race Asie, including Paula…
yeah, yeah, we get on and off, Je suppose que. (rires) Mais sérieusement, the race really was everything we expected it to be and so much more. We were able to for new friendships with the other teams and I think that our season has genrated the most friendships and closest ties.
Let’s talk about two of your new shows, Le duc et Dare Duo. First of all, The Duke sounds so high class.
Je sais, Droit? The Duke is a high-end show that mostly caters to the gentlemen. C'est en partie un talk-show qui traite de sujets sur les hommes. We’ve also got a lot of segment features that a lot of men may be interested in like the fancy cars, nice clubs, et vêtements de marque.
Le salon est tourné ici?
It’s actually shot in Singapore but most of the segments are filmed all over the world so you can imagine how it’s like living in a suitcase. It’s pretty tiring but it’s also a truckload of fun.
Let’s talk about Dare Duo maintenant. Cela doit être amusant pour vous les gars, sortir et faire les choses les plus stupides possibles et d'être payé pour le faire.
C'est fantastique spectacle que QTV venu avec moi et pour Rovilson. The premise is people daring us to do different things and in turn, we dare other people as well. The cool thing about it is people can send us any dare they want and we’ll do it-even at the risk of making idiots out of ourselves.
What’s the most over-the-top dare you’ve done?
We’ve done a lot of crazy stuff but I can’t tell you what they are. You’re going to have to watch the show!
How about wearing a dress while riding the MRT?
C'est pour nous arachides! You’re going to have to come up with something more outrageous than that. We’re way too comfortable wearing dresses-weird as that may sound! (rires)
Hmm…we notice you seem to be a little bit on the sporty side…
Haha! A tad, Je pense que. (rires) Sur une note plus sérieuse, I do dabble in a lot of sports, and the ones that I enjoy most for some reason are those that involve water: plongée sous-marine, which I’ve been doing since I was 11, wakeboarding, kite boarding, and whatever kind of boarding you can think of. (rires)
Régime amaigrissant est une grande partie de votre routine trop, I’ve heard?
Oui, I watch what I eat as much as possible.
Be so kind and share with us your dietary secrets…
My secret, to tell you the truth, IS kamote (sweet potato). Je mange que la place du riz et j'apporte avec moi quelques partout où je vais.
Kamote? That’s it?
Oui, sir! And you’ll be surprised how many Kamotes I eat in a day. The DA (Dept. of Agriculture) should make me their kamote spokesperson! (rires)
