He is probably the only person in the business who admits he has a big mouth, and that occasionally, it can get him into trouble.

But after more than 30 years in showbiz, Martin Nievera has come to realize that it’s all part of the effort of celebrities to “connect” with the public, and that if there are bashers and critics, well, they’re simply part of the territory, and he has to accept them.

“Seems to me that in this day and age, we have no excuse not to talk or communicate with our fans and bashers,” notes Martin.

Yes, it can be painful sometimes. Especially for someone who would rather be private. “When I do or say anything in public I am hit and questioned on social media, leaving us usually private people out in the open and vulnerable to every painful and positive word. I didn’t have this kind of closeness that I do now thanks to social media, but there is definitely a price to pay.”
