What is it like to be a Magalona kid? Saab, the middle child, reveals

Isa si Saab Magalona sa mga anak ng namayapang Kapuso rapper/actor na si Francis Magalona. Tulad ng kaniyang ate na si Max, pumasok na rin siya sa showbiz kasama ang lahat ng kanilang mga kapatid.

Bilang isang middle child, ikukuwento ni Saab kung anong klaseng kapatid ang Magalona brothers at ang panganay na si Maxene.   
 

On Maxene Magalona
Maxene is her best friend. “I talk to her like she's not my sister - stuffs na you'll be shy to tell your sister and I can tell (her) those and she also tells me stuffs na you know, you'll normally be shy to tell your sister. We get annoyed with each other pero we haven't fought for so long. I’m so happy that we have matured. “

On Frank Magalona
Frank is her music buddy. “Pareho kaming mahilig sa rock music. Si Max, Elmo, and Arkin kasi hip hop talaga sila. Kami hip hop din naman pero mas nagkakaintindihan kami sa mga independent bands, local music, mga ganoon. Kasi artist siya eh, painter, so we get along with arts stuffs na may mas indie na effect.”

On Elmo Magalona
Elmo will always be her little brother. “He (Elmo) and Arkin are both gamers, super addict sa gaming and hacking and all these technologies and stuff. Well, I’m really happy that he's finally stepping out of the box as an artist.

On Arkin Magalona
Arkin is her techie brother. “He (Arkin) really tells me which phone to buy, he knows more about it. He knows about jail breaking, all these hacking stuff, which is not right! I find him to be way beyond this years, we actually call him father Arkin (because) since my dad passed away, doon siya sa chair ng dad ko (umuupo), and he has a really low voice. It's very hard to impress him. Actually first time ko siya naka-eksena noong isang araw (sa Adarna), he's so cute kasi parang I was hugging him between takes and parang nahihiya siya kasi may ibang tao. I'm so happy na I'm finally working with him.”


Abangan ang character ni Saab Magalona bilang Robin sa Adarna, weeknights after 24 Oras sa GMA Telebabad.
