The ability to reinvent oneself Paz Padilla is proven once again this week with the release of his new book Madre! with which he honors women. Dressed to the nines and surrounded by family and some of her closest and media friends, the comedian wanted to ‘baptize’ her book on the stage of the Alcalá theater alongside Antonio Resines, the singer Buika and the musician Juan de Materia Prima . It was a nod to her plans for her future since her idea is to make a musical with this work. We will talk about that later as well as so many other concerns and concerns. When Paz opens up she does so without filters or red lines.
Because Peace is as shown. The kind where she gives loud kisses on the cheeks and laughs heartily and without fear of wrinkles. She now she’s on tour with The humor of my life (he returns to Madrid on May 24) and if he has time he walks through a program like TardeAR. Returning to Mediaset was also recovering normality after an abrupt departure and televised wear and tear during his career. Save me. He does not speak about this with resentment but with the serenity that comes from seeing things from a distance and understanding that life is about stages and each moment has its dose of benefit and waste. But without revenge. The good thing about Paz is that she has known how to manage the bitter part of life based on humor and love and from there no one can blame her. It’s her recipe for life and it works for her.
After reading Madre! I understand the need he had to pay tribute to his.
PP: It is a tribute to women and all the Lolas that exist. In the theater I usually meet many women who come to greet me and tell me about their situations, which are very difficult, and I assure you that all mothers have a difficult life. As I often repeat, we all have our crosses. What you see in influencers is not the truth. In the same person there are good and bad moments and that is the reality of life. Mothers give their children the tools to survive.
His art is to fill even the most painful things in life with humor and love.
PP: They are my two tools to get out of everything. When you have love you can endure all adversity. Shared crosses hurt less because the pains of life do not go well when alone. The shared pain of course relieves. Your parents, siblings, friends… isolating yourself is the worst thing you can do and with love you face illness, death. As my mother used to say, miseries come with bread and love better.
Without a doubt, it is the best thing that his mother could have left him, a woman who was also a lost slut.
PP: When you talk about the hard things in life with humor, everything seems to hurt less. It is a wonderful tool because it is the opposite of fear, anguish and loneliness. And another thing we have to learn is to enjoy the moment. We are very fond of remembering the good times after the fact but we have to feel them.
Does today’s society take good care of the elderly?
PP: Chinese society does do this in the same way that it takes care of babies and does not leave them in the hands of others. In my family we have always understood that we have to take care of our loved ones, my mother did it with my grandmother.
And do you trust your daughter to take care of you tomorrow?
PP: I hope so. I believe in the law of sowing and I usually talk to my daughter about these things. I tell him that if one day I need someone to take care of me, he should do it but never stop seeing me. I think there is nothing sadder, as seen in the pandemic, than dying alone. That remorse or guilt remains there forever because it is very difficult to overcome that loss when it happens under those circumstances.
If you walk through any hospital you will see how the elderly hardly receive visitors.
PP: In this life we have to be prepared for unsought loneliness. My mother at 92 years old said that she couldn’t call anyone because she had no friends left alive. That’s what her old age leads you to, but we were always clear that we would be with her and she gave us so much love that we understood the law of sowing alongside her. There is everything in life, selfish people too, but we must understand that we must return to our parents what they have given us.
When you think about your mother, what comes to mind?
PP: How wise and funny she was. Her greatest quality was that she knew how to adapt to all generations. She had a good time with a child, with an adult or with whoever she was. She adapted his soul to the person who approached him. His house was always full of people, it was like Bernarda’s patio.
Her mother knew how to advise her well when her partner, Antonio, fell ill with cancer.
PP: My parents never had anything and they were happy. My mother told me that she should live for today, not tomorrow. That it was not real that the important thing was that she had it and that she had to enjoy it. Neither the past nor the future mattered. The wisdom of grandparents and parents and the popular proverb has the best teachings.
He returned to Mediaset after an abrupt departure.
PP: I first returned to Cuatro with a program that I did with my daughter and then I was in “Tardear” to revive together with Sardá for a special of “Crónicas Marcianas” and I felt very comfortable. I returned to recover that comical, funny, amusing Peace, which takes away from today’s news. Ana Rosa offered me to go more times and when I have time I come back and I confess that I have discovered a very human, sensitive and generous Ana Rosa who generates a very beautiful atmosphere and I like to share those moments with my colleagues on a friendly TV.
In the book he remembers his time in “Sálvame” and you can see that he got ballistic at the end.
PP: I have many memories because in fourteen years everything happened. My mother loved seeing me and she asked me to tell her everything that she didn’t tell herself and she was very funny. Many people have passed by, I have laughed, I have had very sad moments. I have learned and in that I am grateful to the chain, but I have changed and today I am not the same Paz that started. The program was moving and so was I. I believe that everything that happens in life is good. It’s true that in the end I was in a very zen moment in life and that’s why that outing didn’t hurt me that much either. I approached it as a work issue and the following week I already had another offer. I don’t like to dwell on pain and it’s because I have a very beautiful life. If you are calm and do things well, everything affects you less. I am clear that I have not hurt anyone voluntarily and if this happens I apologize because I was not conscious. Today’s Peace is very clear that there are things that it would not do again.
And did they hurt him?
PP: Clear. There are comments that, depending on where you are, affect you more. Like when Chiquito died, whom I adore. He was my friend, like my father. And in Save me You had to treat him like a character and with that I suffered a lot. But it was the program that it was. For the good and the bad. Also in “Sálvame” I had to announce the end of ETA. Imagine what a historic moment. I tried to contribute the best of me, humor and joy, but sometimes it was difficult.
Would you present it again if you returned to the grid?
PP: No. I would not return to those types of programs because I am at a different point in life and I no longer want to hurt anyone. An opinion is not a truth and sometimes without realizing it we crush the character and what is around him. I don’t want to hurt anyone anymore.
And love that a man gives also needs it?
PP: Well of course. I am a woman, I am still alive and here but I have learned to love the people who come into my life even if it is in a different way. Like my Antonio, whom I always loved. Over the years you are not the same and in that difference is also the love we have at that moment. Today there are many things that I don’t consider. As I told you, I am alive and I am happy with what I have today. Without thinking about more.
