The Kitchen Musical Interview Part 1

The thing I love about this job is being able to meet people, watch TV shows and write! More so when I get to TRAVEL and write...


L-R: Rosemary Vandenbroucke, Christian Bautista, Stephen Rahman-Hughes, Karylle Tatlonghari, Arthur Acuna

Don't know if you guys have heard but ntv7 will be airing a new TV series called The Kitchen Musical that features Stephen Rahman-Hughes, Karylle Tatlonghari, Christian Bautista, Rosemary Vandenbroucke, and Arthur Acuna.

You guys might be scratching your heads and going like "Oh I know Stephen Rahman-Hughes, but who are the rest?"


Well let's start with the leading lady Karylle shall we?

Karylle (pronounced Ker-rell) is a well known singer-actress back in her home country the Philippines. She has released 4 studio albums, with the latest one "Road Trip" telling the story of her life through her own compositions. Karylle is an amazing singer and she's really sweet, the kind of person who is just so sincere that everyone feels at ease when talking to her.


During the interview, she talked about a few things: like how she was quite similar to her character Maddie in The Kitchen Musical. Maddie is the kind of person who wants to get her ideas through to the Head Chef, Alex ( played by Stephen Rahman-Hughes), more so in an environment where she's being told to stay in her place and only do what she's being told. Personally, Karylle feels she's pretty much like that too. When she couldn't find someone to put her "Road Trip" album out for her, she financed it and put it out on her own.


Like Maddie, Karylle has a passion for food. The irony of it though is that being around food, researching food, and watching cooking shows all the time kinda made her gain weight. Nonetheless, she enjoyed working with Stephen, whom she says is very down to earth and easy to work with, and Christian whom she's known for a long time.
