Many consider her the Barbie of Thailand among leading actresses. Kwan Usamanee. Recently, Kwan appeared on the Club Friday Show, revealing that she appeared on camera with a bare face because she was worried about her looks and got scolded. She also shared that she nearly went to jail due to friends in the industry, a life experience stemming from choosing the wrong friends.
She shared stories about being a legendary meme queen, loving school and P'Chord, and her love life being quite hot, though she insists she’s not a flirt, just seeing several people. She admitted she used to feel she couldn’t live without a boyfriend but has since changed. She revealed her stronger heart status on Club Friday Show.
The owner of the nickname 'Thailand's Barbie'—so beautiful—has been rumored to be a star who cares a lot about her appearance?
"At that time, I was filming the drama 'Not Without Passion.' The setting was a prison. I liked to wear false eyelashes, eyeliner, and lipstick—I liked to put on makeup. P'Louis Sangwaributr yelled, 'Who’s going to wear makeup and dress up? Go do that outside; no need to come on set. It's a prison—who wears makeup there?' I was a bit rebellious; the more he forbade me, the more I wanted to do it. I asked P'Louis if I could wear false eyelashes but skip blush. He told me to go inside the prison and take a look."
Have you ever had a colleague who almost caused you to go to jail?
"Some things I did were completely correct, but life isn’t perfect; sometimes you make mistakes. That situation almost caused me to slip up. A senior friend invited me out, and I liked having fun, so I went along with him."
You went out partying and dancing, right?
"Yes, because I was under 18 at the time."
But the police came to check, right?
"Yes, we got in a pickup truck like during Songkran and ended up at the police station."
You’re a legendary meme—Kwan loves school, and Kwan loves P'Chord too?
"Yes, I love P'Chord."
What does 'Kwan loves school, Kwan loves teachers' mean?
"It’s a straightforward answer, but listeners have to analyze the situation I was in, the question asked, and how my answer could be interpreted."
Growing up under the watchful eyes of the Thai public and on set, did many leading men flirt with you?
"I was hot. Did I clash with anyone? Yes. Once, I accidentally picked up a call during a meeting. I loved my first love very much; he was the one who made me lose interest in others. But another guy, popular at school and good-looking, also approached me."
Did that handsome guy know you already had a boyfriend?
"No, he didn’t."
Whenever you end a relationship, do you block and stop talking without explanation?
"Yes, that’s right."
You like older men because... is it because you love your father?
"If I were to have a husband, I want a gentleman, a polite man like my father."
Regarding your love life, does your mother want you to settle down so she can feel at ease?
Mother said, 'One day if I’m not around, she said she’d go live in a temple.'
Kwan said, "Mom thinks I’m like someone with a disability—why can’t I live without a man?"
You don’t feel that you can’t live without a partner?
"I used to feel that way. I couldn’t live without a boyfriend. I couldn’t eat alone."
