- “All of that just to say how grateful I am for my generation to have so many options when it comes to expressing our creativity. We don’t only have TV, we don’t only have movies, we have RUclips and TikTok-in long and short formats. Like girl, our possibilities are endless.”
Singer, songwriter, actor, actress, athlete, activist and a scientist on the side, Bretman Rock accepts the Digital Influencer Award presented by global superstar Bella Poarch and luminary beauty influencer Michelle Phan. He has always been admirable for being his true self and outspoken for the API and LGBTQ communities as he encourages his millions of followers and beyond to be their baddest selves without fear of judgment.

👌💯😅😂👏🙏🇵🇭
He really thanked himself, the RUclips OG'S, AND his ancestors all in one speech. PERIODT.
the longest speech i have ever seen that i personally feel it too short. thats how entertain (and iconic) he is, and his presence too. congrats bret 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
EXACTLY......
Just 5 minuTes
I wish it was longer tbh, his humor is always on top
That felt shorter than it is for us
He's so hilarious like no one can be mean like Bretman Rock but still loved by many. An Icon indeed.
Really?
Totally agree. He is so truly f- - - - - g hilarious and a total breath of real fresh air!! I love how he says and does anything he thinks of no matter the situation and without regard to appropriateness. So unlike the people I'm surrounded by who prefer to live in fantasy land where people never talk about or hear anything against their small closed minded ideas or how perfect they think they are. Bravo, good job Bretman!
He’s honest and mean but deep down he loves deeply. Lol
Honestly, out of everyone in the beauty community, I was always rooting for him. He's been nothing but hardworking, humble and honest in a space that was anything but. He saw his internet presence as more than what it could be, showing he's had a visionary mindset since a young age. It's amazing to see someone come from very little & find success by simply being the most authentic & best version of themselves. Congrats to Bretman!!
truth
Not humble but very confident 🎉
@@Tatiana-oz2fn but he pulls the -not humble- bit off as a joke. like he manages to make it charming lmao. always that little smirk afterwards letting you know he was kidding (kinda lmao)
@@lw4611 😂
@@Tatiana-oz2fn i know what you mean. ❤
Bretman really deserves this award. Speech is entertaining.
So glad he mentioned his ancestors because I could feel them as soon as he walked on stage. They love him and have guided him to get this far 💛
And I'm crying. I dunno why lol
what a sleazyfest!!! awful
fr😂
what?
wow!!!!!
Bret called out everyone on his speech and they’re laughing because they know they can’t be that honest, without being cancelled 😂. Also love how he did the Samoan “Cheehoo” in the end to represent the Pacific Islanders and his nieces who are Asian/Polynesian. Thanks Bret!!! ❤️ Hawaiii is meant for you.
cheehoo isnt only for samoans lol
I like his personality a lot. He is so raw, genuine, sincere, and funny at the same time. I love his sense of humor. He is sooo much better than the so-called "influencers" in the Philippines.
let me name names: toni fowler, alex gonzaga, zeinab harake, donnalyn bartolome, to name a few...
@@qwyxiiiqwyxiii6071 fr tho 💀💀
He grew up watching TFC. Hence, the VICE GANDA style of humor & personality. Pinoy Comedy Bars ftw! 🤣🤷🏻♂️😂
@@nyok2127 vice ganda is totally different from him 😂😂😂
Balahura si vice
Absolutely AGREEE with u dude
“Girl, change the channel, duh” PERIODT! Love Bretman always! 🙌🏾🙌🏾
He should have been around for all them dumbass that "I never saw myself on tv".
The Filipiniana design for Bella Poarch says it all as she proud of being PINAY
Bretman Rock is so special! I resonated with this speech so much!! Ryan Higa, Michelle Phan, and Bretman Rock paved the way for me. I loved when he said “Change the channel!” Yes!!!! Choose your Representation!!!
yeah I loved that part too, bretman's so clever. he makes it all make sense
He makes us proud Filipinos. Congratulations Bretman!!! Well deserved!
filipino again???
Cringe mo
Bretman is LITEALLY the embodiment of wholesome. it makes me SO happy seeing how big his career has got.
Needed that speech to be longer. Congrats to you Bretman and yes gurl, keep being your true gay, Filipino but kind and genuine and respectful, not to mention funny and charming. Mabuhay ka Bretman
Bretman is such a natural on camera… he did so well!!
Michelle Phan had all of us putting egg whites on our face omg that was so real 😭😭
omg bubzbeauty!!! im gonna be in tears cause i feel like nobody mentions her too cause she literally raised me along woth michelle phan and the other creators he mentioned, very grateful and very well deserved award bretman is always killing it
I used to looove watching bubzbeauty vlogs!
Bretman’s self expression and just being himself, staying happy, really moves me. Filipino! 🇵🇭♥️🫡
The only influencer out there who actually deserve it.
it's so funny how his speech is just like gossiping with someone and talking about your day like🤣🤣🤌 I love it LMAO
This speech is everything. Not a second did I get bored.
6:41 I WAS CRYING BC I WAS LAUGHING SO BAD 😭😭 THAT WAS SO UNEXPECTED I LOVE THEM BOTH SO MUCHHH
How did you composed that speech Bretman, it was so brilliant.. ay naku ang galing mo kabog talaga. Congrats, you always stay humble and im very proud of you. ❤❤❤
I have never been proud being Gay , Filipino and Asian in my life til to this moment I see this speech . Thank you for being just you. You just wake me up and made me realize to learn to love myself.Thank you!❤
The Filipinos are winning Bella Poarch and Bretman. They are the classiest of the influencers. Just doing their thing and respecting the game
“girl, change the channel…duh!”
Never a more truer statement in this world today!!
“The laughter is distracting really” yes! Haha thats the line anyone want to say but they wouldn’t😂
😂😂😂
I actually judged Bretman a lot until I watched his MTV show. He's been through a lot and he cares so much for his family. He's a hard worker and I can't wait to read his book.
How you gonna judge someone you don’t know nun about
@@roshaneldaley1598THIS LIKE U DONT KNOW HIM TF 😂
"girl change the channel... the hellll" Girllll you had me rolling around laughing but nonetheless CONGRATS YOU DESERVE IT ALL 🤣😍
Wow that’s actually a good speech.
Entertaining, fun and inspiring!
*Let's be honest, Bretman is definitely one of those rare influencers who automatically acquires respect from people.*
The longest speech ive ever heard but i enjoyed every bit of it”)
bretman be mentioning all his titles but yall know by heart he’s the most humble
This is the only speech that I wanna repeat over and over again. Congratulations Bretman 🥳
i think we can all agree that everyone is smiling while watching this video
Never thinks about what people want or expect to hear. Just says what he wants and gives honesty. A pioneer in a way. I admire him.
I didn’t realize the speech is already finished. Congrats Brettman!
Bretman could be a better stand-up comedian than Jo Koy who always uses Filipino stereotypes in his skits.
Before any of them, there was Rex Navarrete.
Jokoy is more white lmao.
Bretman actually lived in the Philippines and still lives in a very traditional Filipino community in Hawaii.
@@luxusken05 Joseph was born in Manila and moved when he was 6y/o. Jo's shine doesnt diminish Bret's shine, and vice versa. The more of us that shines the more it reinforces what's possible for us if we just imagine and set our minds to it. Quit legitimizing the stereotype that we are crabs. WAG UTAK TALANGKA!!!!
@@DensDaPens Utang talangka agad.
Palibhasa kasi karamihang pinoy, basta pinoy proud agad.Like the OP said most of his jokes are stereotypes.
Birthday din ba ni manny Pacquiao code ng ATM mo?
Why are we comparing them? 🍵
This is the most epic award speech I've ever heard omg
Im almost 60yo , a Filipino grandma, and my grandchildren & I watch his vlogs not because of his beauty products, whatever. I dont know but theres something irresistible in him. I find him funny, honest, true.. I just love to listen to him talk; he makes me smile & laugh. Thank you, Bretman Rock. Congratulations! More blessings…❤
I remember RUclips suggested a video of him and his sister. I had no ide who they were, but I was hooked after that. He's so funny and charismatic. I'm glad he won this award. Great speech!
What an amazing speech! Yeah, just saw this in 2024 but, I'm glad I did. Nakaka-proud! 💯🇵🇭
Bretman Rock teaching us to find our own way to success. 4:52
bretman's speech just put me down memory lane by commemorating the early asian RUclipsrs
What a long speech that I did not want it to end!
He is simply the best! ❤ Loved following him all these years because he's so funny yet true and humble deep down and a real family man at the core of his roots. I'm so glad to witness the legacy he will leave on this planet. Well done Bretman 🎉
OMG! He really mentioned all the OG RUclipsrs that I grew up with. They really were making excellent videos back then.
I really love Bretman. He's so unapologetically himself and so humble. I also literally grew up watching Ryan Higa and Wongfu productions... ❤️

I wouldn't mind a 20 minute speech award from Bretman cuz I already know I'll be entertained. He deserve that award.
Gurl- I don't even know what he was awarded with. I'm just glad he was awarded haha
This was literally the only speech I listened to where I didn't get bored

It’s the cheehoo for me, we love you bretman 💖 totally teared up. You deserve it all
Michelle’s Ao Dai and Bella’s Terno! Southeast Asian cultural representation at its finest!
Bella's Baro't Saya. that's what the national costume of filipino women is called.
@@tammyandretti9019 baro’t saya just means shirt and skirt. Terno is more specific to the type of dress with the butterfly sleeves.
OMG! TALAGA! I LOVE what he said about changing the channel. Um, even as a mestisa I’ve never been able to see myself on American /any Western country TV/movies. And I wanted some kind of representation too. Even in East Asian entertainment. P.I.?! Homegirl on the screen mestisa too! Salamat Bretman! That was a needed slap to reality I needed.
We’re so proud of you bretman. Since the day u started uploading funny videos on RUclips, girl I said myself this person is everything then on IG and TikTok I used to follow them all. So proud of you raising our flag and of course mentioning our ancestors is very Filipino hehehe 🇵🇭🇺🇸.
i love bretman so much 🤣 he deserves the award! 💓
Truer words have never been spoken. Keep doing you Bret 👏👏 Speech is gold. Words are gold. Comedy is gold. ❤
It's the *chee-hooo* 8:00 for me 😂😂

I can watch Bretman the whole day, nonstop, without getting bored.

Oh my god, im so happy that he mentioned Ryan Higa and Aj Rafael!!! The OGs for me! And yeah, just change the freaking channel! The authenticity and cleverness of Bretman Rock are beyond this world. No one does it like him! ❤️❤️❤️
