Bisi-bisihan ang dating finalist ng 2010 “Pilipinas Got Talent,” multi-talented na si Markki Stroem sa loob at labas ng showbiz industry. Kumbaga walang uurungan kahit saan isabak. Sa pagiging artista, mang-aawit, fashion model, at dancer, ngayon ay gamer, music video director at producer na rin siya.
Ayon sa isang panayam, sa 12 years ni Markki sa showbiz ay gusto niyang ine-explore ang sarili sa ibat ibang larangan bilang isang artist.
“Literally every year I do something new. Like I explore different world every year. I'm also an ambassador for the Pokemon company. I’m a gamer. So I actually enjoying doing many different things. Because if you stick to just one thing I believe that you have a saturation period. So what I do is I tend to grow in different fields and learn as a progress," aniya.
"I like to grow in as a radio DJ in the morning from 6 to 10 on 'The Morning Rush' on RX 93.1 from Monday to Friday. And so literally it’s something that which I wake up in the morning."
Markki Stroem, kinarir ang pag-host ng UnkabogaBALL kasama ni Alex Diaz
Dagdag pa ni Markki na nakagawa siya ng TV series, movie, play na “Mula sa Buwan” na nominated as Best Musical sa taong ito, pruweba ito na maraming bagay na talagang gusto niyang gawin sa buhay.
Heto’t may isa pang pinagkakaabalahan si Markki at ito ay ang pagiging host ng mga events. Kamakailan nga lang ay naging part si Markki bilang host ng FX9 launching ng bagong health products na organisado ng Hox World at ng FINX dubbed as “World Without Boundaries” na ginanap sa Samsung Hall ng SM Aura Premier sa BGC, Taguig City last December 17.
Tinalakay nila dito ang magandang benefits ng nutritional medicines sa tao gaya ng D-Cal. Nagkaroon naman special performance ang P-pop na G22 na kinabibilangan nila AJ, Alfea, Bianca at Jaz.
Thankful naman si Markki na naging part siya ng event na ito dahil naalala niya ang kanyang grand mother na siyang gusto niyang ma-restore sa buong buhay niya.
“Maybe my grand mother, is someone I’ve looked up to. She is the one who told me health is wealth. She is the one who always told me to maintain my life and live it with health in mind. To continue to run, to continue to swim, to continue to workout, to continue to live my best life. I keep myself, you know healthy."
"And one of those things that I would like to maybe do is maybe go back and to talk to her before she passed. I also wish that I had the time to talk to my grand mother and have a little beat of conversation before she passed. Although I did recorder conversation before I left for Dubai. But I know she’s with me in spirit everyday and I love her for teaching me that particular phrase that health is wealth. Because I’ve taking care myself eversince."
Panggulat din ang paghost ni Markki sa 2022 UnkabogaBALL na idinaos ni Vice Ganda sa Cebu, kasama ang actor-model na si Alex Diaz. Talagang tumodo-effort si Markki sa awrahang drag queen.
Sa mga bumabash kay Markki sa social media, keber niya sa mga ito. Wala siyang panahon para pag-ukulan ito ng pansin.
“Wala akong paki hehehe. Ako, I me. I don’t like behind, behind anything. I don’t wanna be anyone else. I will be kind to you if you are kind to me. But if you treat me like a garbage I will block you. You don’t exist in my life anymore. You don’t need to. Because the more its there it will mess of your mental health. I don’t need that in my life. We don’t need any negativity in our life. Instead of answering or getting angry. Minsan ina-answer ko and then block and then delete. Coz we don’t need that in our life. We don’t need negativity in our life. We only need positivity, joy, love. And we need to lift ourselves up instead of pushing each other down.”
Samantala, malungkot si Markki sa nangyari kay Jovit Baldivino na siyang grand champion nila noon sa Season 1 ng “Pilipinas Got Talent” noong 2010. Kabatch kasi niya si Jovit noong mga panahon na iyon.
“He is very close to my heart. I wished him all the best. Whenever we see each other it’s always like old friends meeting. Because I love each and every single one of PGT finalists season one. We create history. I just wish the family of Jovit, the children of Jovit, Jovit’s wife everyone who cared for Jovit so much love and so much healing after this happened. It’s hurt me to talk about this too much but I know he’s in a better place right now. And I just wish him so much love.”
Ibinahagi rin ni Markki ang kanyang signature underwear line na nagsimulang ginamit sa isang pageant. Aniya ay may mga bagay daw silang ginagawa para dito. Pero sa mga may gusto raw they can check sa Instagram niya para makaorder sa online.
Next year naman daw wino-workout ni Markki ang magproduce ng isang musical play na isa sa mga favorites niyang gawin. So abangan.
