Lisa & Tayme Thapthimthong Remember Their "Firsts"

[car engine roars]

[Interviewer] Just hold one second.

I think that's like what, a Porsche, a GT3 RS?

[people laugh]

Is that [giggles]? No, I'm just-

[Tayme laughs]

[Lisa chuckles]

Not Ferrari, for sure.

[Tayme laughs] [Lisa laughs]

Hi, teenVOGUE!

This is Lisa.

And I'm Tayme and this is some of our Firsts.

[upbeat music]

Oh, wow [laughs]!

[Tayme] You can go first [laughs].

Actually, I was nervous to see Tayme for the first time,

because he's gonna be, Gaitok,

and I'm gonna have a scene with him a lot.

He's like this all the time.

He's like a smiley guy.

So- [Tayme chuckles]

Yeah.

I really like your first impression.

Thank you.

I was very struck.

Saw her walk in and she looked beautiful

and her be white dress

and she broke the ice with me so well,

because I was actually pretty stiff

and I don't know, to shake your hand or do this

or- [Lisa laughs]

And she's like, Yeah, let's, get a drink and talk.

And that was great.

She was so friendly and bubbly and I had fun.

[upbeat music]

Thank you. Yeah, you're welcome.

[Tayme laughs]

Think it was the, we're same, no?

[Tayme] Yeah-

[Tayme] It was the first- The cast dinner.

Yes. It was amazing.

I mean, from my point of view,

I got to meet Jason Isaacs, Walton Goggins,

all these amazing actors

that I've watched in films growing up.

And then, you know, obviously meeting Lisa

and she made quite an entrance that night.

[Lisa and Tayme laugh]

We can skip that part. Okay. Yeah!

I had a scene with Walton and Amy.

[Tayme] That was my first- Oh!

I was so nervous.

I don't know what I have to do and have to expect,

but I mean, everybody's helping me out,

so yeah, I really thankful to them.

Yeah, my first day on set, it was a night scene.

I love night scenes, you get to sleep all day

and then wake up late and go to go to work [laughs].

That was the first time I got to really see everyone

at work and see how Mike works with everyone on set;

all the way from the actors to all the crew.

That's when I really got the scale of things,

of how great this production is.

2016, when I first debuted [indistinct].

Mm-hmm.

Nice.

I don't really feel famous yet.

Oh! [Tayme laughs]

Stop it, Tayme.

Well, it's-

Right now!

Right now-

Right now! I guess like-

Doing this- Yeah, coming to-

With teenVOGUE!

Actually today, it started from today, you know,

like when the junkets started.

It kind of hit me

and I actually really enjoy this.

I'm enjoying doing all of this, so yeah.

Thank you [laughs].

Oh!

I think I was like a baby actress.

[Tayme] Oh, really?

What do you call?

It's just like, cameo, me just like a little kid on set

walking around, dancing around, so-

Oh, okay. I think that was

like my first time that I saw my stuff on screen.

Yeah.

I did my first movie in 2014 called, Skin Trade.

And that's the first time I saw myself on screen.

[Tayme] Ooh. Yeah.

I think it was like a sneakers,

a pair of sneakers or something.

[Tayme laughs]

It was not that big money.

So it's just like a-

[Lisa speaks in foreign language]

Yeah, I just feel like sweets.

Like- [Tayme laughs]

It's like a pocket money.

Pocket money for like snacks and-

Mm-hmm.

Yeah, I was 16 and first paycheck

just in my household.

We always say that first paycheck

we take our parents out for a little meal.

Oh, wow!

Oh, that's so sweet.

So I remember taking them out for a Greek dinner.

Wow! Yeah [laughs].

Yeah.

It was, yeah.

Grilled chicken and-

[speaks in foreign language]

[Tayme] Ah! Yeah.

First menu.

Yes, um-

[speaks in foreign language]

Oh [indistinct] sounds good. Yeah.

For me-

[speaks in foreign language]

It's like a green mango salad.

Oh, with sticky rice.

That's really good.

I'm hungry. Me too.

I can't remember.

But recently I'm so into the Pop Mart thing,

so I would say the first collection

of the Pop Mart is LABUBU.

It's like one of the LABUBU collections.

You made that blow up.

[Tayme and Lisa laugh]

LABUBU's my baby.

Yeah [laughs].

Ooh, that's a great question.

[Tayme] First time listening to BLACKPINK?

It was,

actually-

You never heard of it [laughs]?

No, no, I have definitely, I'm just trying

to think which was the first?

I think the first one I really focused,

I mean, I've definitely heard it passing by,

when they first debuted,

but I never really sat and watched something

until my daughter,

I remember the when I came home and she had Pink Venom?

[Lisa] Oh yes.

On YouTube, on the screen.

And that's when I actually like sat and watched

and it's like, wow, these guys are good.

Oh! [Tayme laughs]

Thank you.

I know for him, Ed Sheeran.

Photograph.

Photograph. [Tayme laughs]

Yeah, I mean-

It was like the first thing that he has to sing.

Yeah.

It was the first thing I sang at The White Lotus

karaoke party.

But we did a lot more songs after that [laughs].

Yeah.

Yeah.

For me, I'll go for Taylor Swift,

You Belong With Me.

Oh, actually The White Lotus.

I was stressed, to be honest,

to watch myself,

but when I see Tayme, I'm kind of like relaxed.

[speaking in foreign language]

It was like oh my God, he did so great.

Thank you.

Yeah.

And likewise, likewise.

You did amazing [laughs].

I think in Skin Trade, my first ever movie back in 2014.

I never used a stunt man, ever.

Like, I always made a point that I want to at least

try first.

And if I can't do it-

Really, even though it's risky?

So far there hasn't been anything like, you know,

not like jumping across buildings yet.

[Lisa laughs]

But just like a lot of running

and jumping downstairs and stuff like that.

I like to do all that.

[Tayme and Lisa laugh]

So shy to answer.

I love Big Bang.

Yeah.

Big Bang.

I can't pick one because I love them all.

[Tayme and Lisa laugh]

Nice.

Honestly, throughout the weeks, I'm kind of glad

to say that I was never in that elimination spot.

I think I did quite well in that season.

I was never called up to the front of the stage

to sort of stand, just two people,

and like-

Then drop one. Yeah.

Oh.

So, I was very lucky not to go through that.

I think after I debuted with BLACKPINK,

and then we all went to Thailand for like a trip

or something to finish

a shoot or something.

We had like a fan waiting for us at the airport.

Oh yeah.

Imagine. I was like, oh, wow!

[Tayme laughs]

They love us [laughs].

They knew who I am.

[Tayme laughs]

Not on the scale of Lisa,

but after I finished from Academy Fantasia, season 10,

as soon as we finished,

we were on like one of the front page

on the Thai news;

when I was in a mall having dinner,

someone at the table next to me did recognize me

and ask for a picture.

So that was a cool little like, oh wow.

Like you say, Well, you know who I am.

Like that's cool.

I get very critical of myself.

Yeah, first time watching, I'd always, Did I say that

well enough or did I hit that rhythm?

You know, like I'm very critical.

But I would always watch it one time, then watch it again.

And the second time it always feels like, oh, actually I-

Yeah. Did all right.

Yeah, yeah, same, same.

Yeah.

Actually, I couldn't watch myself.

I was like, Have, have, like, you know.

[upbeat music]

I hope you enjoy Thailand.

We usually go to the Caribbean.

Close my eyes, but- Yeah.

Same, if I watch it again, I would be more like-

Yeah-

Actually relax and enjoy more.

Yeah.

I love it.

I love it.

Please, these gays, they're trying to murder me.

It took me a little while to understand,

sort of what was going on,

because I'm so used to watching action movies

and that kind of template.

You know, once tension started building

within the first season, I was like, ah,

I get it now.

And this is really good.

Mm-hmm. Yeah.

Well, judging from the first two seasons,

I'd wanna know what happens.

How Mike's gonna spice it up even more.

So, especially knowing that, oh, he's setting

in Thailand; I was like, it's definitely gonna be chaotic.

I think Thailand's just a great setting

for this series too. Yeah.

Yeah. A lot of culture.

A lot of culture.

Eastern versus Western.

[Lisa] Yeah.

Culture [indistinct] clashing a little bit.

Yeah, he does it in a great way.

Thank you teenVOGUE for having us.

I'm Lisa.

And I'm Tayme.

And these were our Firsts.

[Lisa makes animated banter]

Hey! [Tayme and Lisa chuckle]
