Who cares if we're Filipino or not? It doesn't matter what nationality, ethnicity, color, gender, or religion(Not Religious).. We're all the same in the eyes of God... That's actually what happened when you become patriotic, you always want a competition that ur own blood is the best.. Cause if everyone wanted to be on TOP? try to go low cause jealousy wll always prevent.. Just like one guy who put "I am proud to be mexican" sticker n his car, then someone wreckd it and put "Mexican sucks!' (No offence for all Mexican out there.. I love you guys.. Not just mexican, but I love no matter what you are. :) Cause that's the way human behavior works... Yes. I am proud to be Filipino because I came to my moms womb and she raised me well. I speak fluently in Tagalog when someone approach to me, and I don't fake it like I have an accent. (Not someone I know of who pretends) Remember kid. Lahat tayo may ibat-ibang talinto. (Each of us has its own talent) Not just Filipino.. And I know Filipino's are not the only one who is arrogant, evry human has it, you just have to control it.... ;)
***** Well played. I respect your thoughts. Although, I do have a question...Did you grow up to a Country where there's racism involve? If no? How could you possibly understand? This message is for some of the White Americans that think that they're the only one who owns this place that we call UNITED STATES of America. (But I didn't want to point that out 1st to white people. Instead, I was trying psychologically) But hey.. Even the real first people who was here were the brown skin/red skin native americans.. Right now in a southern area of US, White people are recruiting to combined forces to dispose other ethnicities...( know this things cause I work in a Human Rights Campaign...)But instead of embracing my own ethnicity that I'm proud of, I prefer embracing all of the other ethnicities because I do believe that, that is the most important to point out to people...So they'll learned that we are all the same, And stop there predictions. Like I said, every single person has his/her own uniqueness(Talent) I want them to know that not only Filipino can go on top, but all of the other roots of nationality/Ethnicity. But I do respect your reply ms. Vanilyn cause if I was there and you were here, We would've switch thoughts... And I know you didn't put on my shoes... Yet... And I do feel sorry for Gabriela because I know she doesn't do anything wrong... Tignan mo ang mga nag comments? Kaya I tried to brought up peace of mind sana.... :) But I am proud to be filipino... Where'd you think I brought here?

+Candie daughterofchrist Spaniards are considered neither Hispanic nor Latino because Hispanic refers to a Spanish-speaking person from Latin America, while Latino refers to anyone from Latin America period.

A ready, smile, a talent to entertain especially in dancing and singing, multi-lingual, God fearing, a living paradise for a country and that undeniable honey brown skin tint that identifies them worldwide as frankly they are so well spread out globally. They excel I'm any endeavor they go into and their turn to be recognized by the world as a people and country begins now. Just don't let them play politics and everything goes well.

_"Sorry if some are only half"_ - she didn't mean it to insult anybody. if you think she said it to mean that she is sorry for them that they are not 100% Filipino, then you're making a mistake. she only said that because she knows lots of people in the comment section will say that most of them are not even 100% Filipino but - half, so why include them here. the way we say things in Tagalog, when translated in English, sometimes causes misunderstanding.
You forget what gives some of them that extra melanin, African.

Speaking of the Centennial celebration of the Philippines. I remember the time, way back in 1998, that the King and Queen of Spain visited the Philippines to commemorate the Centennial celebration.
his father is from Spain and mother a Filipina.
That is correct. His mother is Maria Isabel Preysler Arrastia, a Filipino journalist and tv host based in Spain, model and beauty queen. She was born in Manila, Metro Manila, Philippines in 1951 but she lived with her aunt and uncle in Spain during her college years to study in an Irish Catholic University. In other word, Isabel is a Spanish Filipino. Enrique was born in Madrid, Spain. During the Spanish rule, many Filipinos went to Europe to study further.

It worth to be a Filipino , though so poor,we love mankind with a open hands, and taking pride for any talent that possess. Inspired and share it like the bright star in the sky...Godbless
Who cares if we're Filipino or not? It doesn't matter what nationality, ethnicity, color, gender, or religion(Not Religious).. We're all the same in the eyes of God... That's actually what happened when you become patriotic, you always want a competition that ur own blood is the best.. Cause if everyone wanted to be on TOP? try to go low cause jealousy wll always prevent.. Just like one guy who put "I am proud to be mexican" sticker n his car, then someone wreckd it and put "Mexican sucks!' (No offence for all Mexican out there.. I love you guys.. Not just mexican, but I love no matter what you are. :) Cause that's the way human behavior works... Yes. I am proud to be Filipino because I came to my moms womb and she raised me well. I speak fluently in Tagalog when someone approach to me, and I don't fake it like I have an accent. (Not someone I know of who pretends) Remember kid. Lahat tayo may ibat-ibang talinto. (Each of us has its own talent) Not just Filipino.. And I know Filipino's are not the only one who is arrogant, evry human has it, you just have to control it.... ;)
***** Well played. I respect your thoughts. Although, I do have a question...Did you grow up to a Country where there's racism involve? If no? How could you possibly understand? This message is for some of the White Americans that think that they're the only one who owns this place that we call UNITED STATES of America. (But I didn't want to point that out 1st to white people. Instead, I was trying psychologically) But hey.. Even the real first people who was here were the brown skin/red skin native americans.. Right now in a southern area of US, White people are recruiting to combined forces to dispose other ethnicities...( know this things cause I work in a Human Rights Campaign...)But instead of embracing my own ethnicity that I'm proud of, I prefer embracing all of the other ethnicities because I do believe that, that is the most important to point out to people...So they'll learned that we are all the same, And stop there predictions. Like I said, every single person has his/her own uniqueness(Talent) I want them to know that not only Filipino can go on top, but all of the other roots of nationality/Ethnicity. But I do respect your reply ms. Vanilyn cause if I was there and you were here, We would've switch thoughts... And I know you didn't put on my shoes... Yet...
And I do feel sorry for Gabriela because I know she doesn't do anything wrong... Tignan mo ang mga nag comments? Kaya I tried to brought up peace of mind sana.... :) But I am proud to be filipino... Where'd you think I brought here?

+Candie daughterofchrist that is only bureau of the us enrique speaks espanol he is a latino he have said in a video himself catholic is a religion latino is a race .
+Candie daughterofchrist Spaniards
are considered neither Hispanic nor Latino because Hispanic refers to a
Spanish-speaking person from Latin America, while Latino refers to
anyone from Latin America period. Spaniards are actually considered
Caucasian/European, so Enrique would be half Caucasian and half Asian.
+Kelvindro Chew Mr Igliasias himself have spoken that he is a Filipino, so respect the man.

Proud to be filipino! Godbless us always!
Modern Filipinos are a mixture of one or several bloodlines to evolve into one unique race. A ready, smile, a talent to entertain especially in dancing and singing, multi-lingual, God fearing, a living paradise for a country and that undeniable honey brown skin tint that identifies them worldwide as frankly they are so well spread out globally. They excel I'm any endeavor they go into and their turn to be recognized by the world as a people and country begins now. Just don't let them play politics and everything goes well.

wow si batista , pilipino din

😂 sa wiki tingnan mo n lng
Our nationality is determined by genealogy, which is based by our father's seed. The lineage of man and woman is determined by the fathers only. Therefore, Enrique is Latino.
+Reyna Elena Not anymore. As long as you have a Filipino parent, you have the right to be considered a natural-born Filipino.
However, I am not sure if some of these ever became Filipinos (legally). Some were neither born nor grew up here.

If he don't says that he is for me he is not. Being a filipino is not just about blood, you have to keep Philippines in your heart
> n o b o d y < cares
+Ashton Morin stfu!
Eat shit
We are all the same.. no
matter what race you have.. it's not about the looks.. it's about what's inside your heart!!
Filipinos just love riding on others success. Look how they become jubilant when someone who is Filipino/half Filipino/quarter Filipino/tiny bit Filipino becomes popular in other countries, then they will shout pinoy pride like everybody cares.
most islanders are physically attractive or good-looking period that's honesty.😉
Be honest folks, neither Enrique nor Bruno are filipinos. Filipinos are people like Paquiao, people who speak Tagalo, who were born on the islands who are actually embrace your Filipino culture. Be honest to your selves
Martin Brizuela lmao its who has Filipino blood in them not who lives in the Philippines
It's funny because if they were criminals you would never say they are Filipinos but since they're famous-- "oh! Filipino pride!" 1. You don't consider your selves Latinos. 2. You chose to forget Spanish language and prefer Tagalo and English. 3. You have nothing in common with those artists and Latinos in general but you chose it that way.
Enrique Iglesias was born in Spain, to a full blooded Spanish father, and her mother is more Spainard than Philipina by far and you know it. There is not one single video here showing her speaking Tagalo--there are many interviews of her speaking in perfect Spanish though. Why don't you read Enrique's biography?? He started his career in Mexico, and the first label that ever signed him was Mexican label.
fair point enrique is spanish which is what i was confused about too however Bruno is Filipino
Martin Brizuela sounds like a good but at the same time racist. You're considered Filipino if you have the blood of one, at least part of it. I'm half Filipino part Chinese and Spanish, and I'm sure as heck that I'm Filipino. All of my family is mainly Filipino. And I'm sure this RUclips researched the stars carefully to make sure they're at least part Filipino to qualify. I may be born in Manila, Philippines but I don't know the language since I wasn't raised there.

(Part 4) “I was born in the Philippines but I lived all my life in London and the UK. I love being in London and I consider myself as a true blue Londoner. The message of the song is not literally about the rain. It’s about being in London, where it rains all the time, but taking it as a positive because it’s a cool place to be. It’s a happening city and things are happening for me right, so it’s all really good. I’m really happy,” he explained.
How embarrassing!
+Shela Olaer I wasn't talking to you so clam up!
"Clam up" means be quiet.
+Mark BestBuddy Shela Olaer, for a woman you have a filthy mouth.
Mark BestBuddy What's shameful in it.? Being a Filipino?
Kay Cee mas maganda pakinggan ang "im proud of them mabuhay from phil" hindi yung im proud being filipino, dahil sa kanila? Ksp ka kung ganon wag idamay ang sarili sa kasikatan ng iba na di nila alam dating tuloy arogante.
