Skin Whitening Commercial

I just realized that Lil Hoop and I can be models for a popular skin whitening commercial… the end tag line being “Totoo bang mag-ama kayo?” (Is it really true that you are father and son?) Good thing that my son’s complexion took after Mrs. Hoop’s while months of field work had turned my skin to a more exotic blend.

At the audition, when the casting director will ask me what special skills my son has, I will say that at the tender age of 4 months he can already do the “pogi-boy” pose *snicker*

    Hehe..di ba reverse yong sa skin whitening commercial? That is, ang anak ang “tanned”? The two of you would make great models for ads on infant milk with whitening “elements.” With the obsession on whiter skin, this might not be far fetched! I’ve linked you up, cheers!

    I don’t understand the joke.
