Did you know? Baron Geisler's movie 'Dollhouse' was based on Faye Lorenzo's dad

On "Fast Talk with Boy Abunda" Friday, Faye Lorenzo revealed "Dollhouse," the Netflix movie that Baron Geisler top billed in 2022 ,was about her dad.

"Yung story ng 'Dollhouse,' yung  ginampaman ni Baron, story ko at ng father ko," Faye began. "He was a drug addict, and medyo sensitive ako kasi baka i-judge siya ng mga tao," she added tearfully.

According to Netflix, "Dollhouse" is about a troubled lead singer of a rock band who sets out to build a relationship with his long-lost daughter.

"Magugulat ka kasi ang daming na-inspire sa story," Faye continued. "Hindi ako makapaniwala na ang dami palang katulad ko na pinagdaanan yung ganun, na nagkaron sila ng tatay na naging mahina, na yun yung ginamit na way para makatakas sa problema."

Despite her father's drug problem, Faye says he was actually a good dad. "Pinaramdam niya sa aming magkakapatid kung gano niya kami kamahal. Tinaguyod niya kami kahit na naiwan — iniwanan kasi kami ng mama ko nung bata pa ko."

According to Faye, she would often tell her father to change his ways. "At lagi rin naman niya sinasabi sa 'kin, 'anak, paglaki mo, 'wag mo kong gagayahin.'"

When her father eventually passed away when she was 14, Faye became her family's breadwinner. She took on odd jobs, and with her lola, even sold banana cue.

On the night her lola passed away, Faye recounted how she told her told about auditioning for GMA-7. "Sabi niya, 'makukuha ka diyan. Magiging artista ka.'"

Faye is now a talent of Sparkle Artist Center. — LA, GMA Integrated News
