One of the male pageant/modeling winners who won my admiration as a very lively interviewee is
this year’s winner of Body Shots Philippines 2014. He is a very articulate
person and from his social network account, I can immediately tell that this
Fil-Aussie love photo-opzzz! He likes wacky photos. So, at this time, I am
attaching his wholesome pics here because I realized he is more handsome when
he is fully clothed (hehe).
Here is my interview with him…
Male Pageants in the Philippines (MPP): Hello Sin! Tell us why did you come to the
Philippines?
Sin Matecki:
I came to the Philippines to discover my
family, background, and history. I am surprised as I became a model here, I am
representing the Philippines over Australia. Mabuhay Pinas!
MPP: You mean
you have filipino roots?
Sin Matecki:
Very much so! (smiles)
MPP: Nice to
know that you have Filipino roots! Do you plan to join some more male pageants
in the future, like Misters of the Philippines?
Sin Matecki:
There are so many pageants, I wasn't aware
of the Misters of the Philippines. I’m still getting out of the tourist zone
and into the Filipino zone. Perhaps in the future… no real plans…
MPP: I saw
you auditioned at the Bench Naked Truth. Did you push through with it?
Sin Matecki:
I wasn't there for Bench this year, maybe
next perhaps, you never really know till it happens.
MPP: Thanks for adding me Sin in my real account (Randee)
ha. Who encouraged you to join Body Shots?
Sin Matecki:
Oh yes, I already have you in my contacts!
I’m a backpacker, and I was really determined to meet my relatives here. After
much thought with many people telling me that I should try modeling, I found out
that my cousin was a Binibining Laguna First Runner Up, I think 2012 or 2013. There
was a screening for a fashion show or something which turned out to be Body Shots.
I tried, why not right? I tested my luck and after the final screening, unfortunately
my cousin didn’t make the cut. I made it as official candidate. It was this
time when I was about to catch a plane to China. Throughout the competition, I
lost 7 kilos and gave it my best shot, so I’m happy - there is a good story
behind it. With many months still here, i decided to meet my
family all around the Philippines along with tasting the modeling side of things.
MPP: What do
you find so interesting in the Philippines? Any culture shock that you would
like to share?
Sin Matecki:
Very interesting question, okay guess
I'll give you a interesting answer. Few things that quickly came
to mind, early morning for myself, ready for some coffee and pandesal.
A few bads: This country is heavily conditioned by means of media and
western propaganda influence, very large influence on the masses. Remember, we
are all products of media reconditioning to a certain extent, with majority
completely oblivious. It's run for personal profits, not for the country
itself. Best city planners can be found in the Philippines. Massive gap between
the rich and the poor, fame and money buys friends in high places very easily.
On the other hand, Philippines is very different comparing to the West, people
here are very friendly and welcoming. Instanly you would think they are gay if
being a guy. A lot are genuine and live with a smile on their faces no matter
the situations. I haven't yet been, but with the many reviews and pictures,
Philippines has one of the best dive spots in the world, example, Coron in
Palawan, during World War, many ships were sunk so it's a great history dive if
you don't mind the whale sharks. Whenever you are, there is always good food
around the corner. In the last 30 years Philippines has grown in terms of
business and structural development.
MPP: Many
foreign models, especially Brazilians, have decided to stay here in the
philippines for good. Do you also see yourself also staying here and having a
family in this country?
Sin Matecki:
I can't answer if i'm not 100%.
I wonder how it will turn out, in the end im not worried.
MPP:
Ahmmmmmm, are you single? J
J J
Sin Matecki:
Yes, very much so!
