TikTok Scoop: Maureen Wroblewitz Reacts to Shay Mitchell's Claim Filipina Mom is Spanish, Hopes Filipinos Abroad Would be Proud of their Heritage



@mwrob this video is from 3 weeks ago lol but I was just so confused as to why she said that πŸ˜… maybe I’m privileged to have never been picked on for being filipino.. I grew up in saudi with people from all over the globe and when I was in Germany, I was the only Asian in my class. Most people in my school had never heard of the Philippines but I would be so proud to educate them. Maybe I was lucky that my classmates were actually pretty curious and open to learning. I grew up loving and embracing my Filipino culture thanks to my Mom. My sisters and I up to this day get so excited to hear of someone else’s Filipino background because of our Pinoy pride 🀍 I hope more Filipinos abroad get to heal from their trauma, learn to embrace our beautiful culture and hopefully teach their children as well #proud #filipino ♬ original sound - Maureen Wrob

  1. Katulad din ni Vanessa Hudgens na Filipino-Spanish daw ang nanay nya pero nung nakita si mother wala man lang bakas ng mestiza ang itsu. Self hate at its finest….

    3. Naku, daming claims ng Spanish blood sa pinas but in reality, unless ginah@sa ang mga ninuno ninyo ng some prayle or guardia civil, konti lang talaga ang porsyento ng mga pinoy na may Spanish roots! Mas maraming Chineae lineage kesa Spanish, look it up!

      Ikagaganda nyo ba ang magclaim ng pagiging espaΓ±ol? Tatangos bigla ang ilong, ganern?

    4. 2:18 hindi dahil matagal sila dito at may Spanish sounding last name ang mga pinoy eh meron ka nang lahi na Spaniard. Filipinos were required to change their last name for the sake of census and it's also a way for colonizers to rob Filipinos of their own culture and identity.

    5. 2:18 Contrary to popular belief, hindi po marami ang Spanish-Filipino offsprings noong araw dahil in the first place, di ganun karami ang Spaniards dito satin.

    8. Spanish blood ek ek. Eh kokonti lang din naman ang nalahian ng mga kastila sa atin. Spanish lang ang surname at matagal silang nag stay dito but it doesn’t mean na madaming may lahing spanish. Ang OOA ng iba.

    9. 0218 No need to tell me. Tisay ako but I tell people na Pilipina ako period even when they insist I don’t look like one. It doesn’t matter kung may lahi kang Spanish. If you were born and raised in the Philippines, you are Filipino.

    1. Parang trend yan kasi sa Filipino diaspora. Ang question ay bakit. Si Isabel Preysler at Junior Baretto nga na mas lamang pa ang pagka Spanish blood ay considered Filipinos talaga sa Spain.

    6. Yeah, though isabel is alta din kasi and really, could pass as a spanish lady.

    7. The family of Isabel Preysler, both sides, are Spanish born and raised here in the Philippines. She is usually referred as the Philippine born Spanish in several articles in Spain.
      Marian was born in Spain and she is half Spanish. It is a pity that she doesn't speak Spanish fluently.

      Delete
    8. Nope 4:27. There's a paper about her - "The (Sexist and Racist) Image of Isabel Preysler in the Spanish Media Coverage of Her Romantic Relationships". If you read Spanish articles, Isabel Preysler is well known in Spain as an Asian/Oriental. She's known for being mestiza here in the PH, but not in Spain.

    3. 12:59 well, lets be real here girl. Napakaraming pure pinoy na ayaw magsalita ng pilipino kahit dito rin sila nakatira sa pinas since birth. They even force their children na magsalita ng english. Maiintindihan ko pa ang argument mo if shes an actress but shes not. Inis n kasi ako sa mga character n "balik bayan" or "laking states side".

    7. Depende kung gusto talaga matuto and nagsasanay. I had a friend in med school na Fil Am pero looks more American than Filipino tas nung nag start mag med school hindi marunong mag Tagalog. She tried hard to learn the language and when we reached 4th year, fluent na sya and nagugulat patients and even speak behind her back in Filipino tas pag nag converse, tameme na at napahiya na sila kasi may mukhang foreigner na nakakaintindi pala sa kanila. I have cousing too in the US na hindi pa nakakatapak sa Pilipinas but fluent sa Tagalog kasi tinuruan at sinanay ng ibang relatives.

  17. Ako nga I'm half Spanish who grew up sa ibang ASEAN country. I look 90% Spanish 10% Filipino but I am always proud of my small nose I got from my Pangasinense lolo.😁 I always make sure that part of me is known because I love my Filipino grandparents so much. I'm actually in the Philippines for a long vacation, been discovering a lot of yummy dishes and snacks! I will take home a lot of pasalubong for my fam and myself.🀣

    I know Shay had a bad experience growing up, but she also did an interview saying she's finally fine okay with it and talking about her Filipina mom. Turning 360° about it, she's delusional.

    2. i get her din in that i used to get asked what i was and when i said filipino, people used to say i didnt look filipino. theyd say i looked oriental because oriental descent or blood ako but i didnt identify as oriental because i couldnt speak a word of chinese halos. so one time someone asked me if i were filipino. i said yes. then naisip ko ay baka ibig sabihin descent, so i said no. then i said i dont know bec gulong gulo talaga ako. at the time i didnt think to say Filipino -Chinese kasi nga yung pagka-Chinese ko is hilaw. di nakakarelate mga tao who only have 1 identity. ang hirap lang ipaliwanag sa lahat yung background mo because they're asking for a 5 second answer but your heritage is much more complex than 5 seconds.

  25. I’ll just give another perspective. M and S despite both being half had different backgrounds and environment. Aminin natin na mas judgmental tayo sa maganda. M is not that beautiful physically so less discrimination ang na experience nya. I’m not saying S is right but maybe her experiences growing up made her ashamed of being part Filipino. What if sa area where she grew up in nakaka hiya yung ugali ng Filipino? Or what if during the time of the interview she was surrounded by Filipinos na unsavory yung ugali kaya she didn’t want to be identified as one of them?

    2. uhhh ok. if you say so, clearly shay feels differently and she's the one who probably has better knowledge since oh i dont know, she has been working for years now trying to find work. obvious naman there are more roles for hispanic over filipino asian. sa bridgerton nga magkaka-east asian (oriental), may indian may itim, may bi (benedict) , may gay (fran and michaela), pero walang pinoy. lets just admit mas madaming ibang need to be represented. was hoping so bad si liza man lang makasama pero wala eh, maski anong hope mo. till now yung crazy rich asian 2 di nga natuloy. sa tingin mo kung pinay siya and it would get her roles, she would not declare it? i dont judge her kasi mahirap mamuhay sa ganong mundo nila. pinay pa din naman siya she deserves support. masakit man sa atin o hindi. yung toxicity ng kababayan and bashers now will just push her further away from her filipino-ness. and maybe she feels shes spanish because pinoys naman talaga have lots of spanish influences and she probably doesnt know pinoy but maybe speaks some spanish. anyway di ako nakikipagaway. wala naman tayong makukuha dito ako lang lets just try to be supportive bec she is a human being. wala naman siyang nagawang masama sa atin mismo personally. wala siyang away sa atin.

  33. Kids like Maureen are proud because they were taught from a young age by their parents to be proud of their roots and heritage. They grew up embracing the culture. It all boils down on how the kids are raised. Shay’s mother obviously didn’t teach her this or her raise her this way. Maybe her mother is embarrassed of her being Filipino herself. Real talk, may mga ganyang Pinoy talaga.
