The Lion Mums star on playing a single mum, raising her future kids, and not being a tiger mum to her cats.
8 DAYS: After nearly two years, you’re back as single mother Min Yi on Lion Mums. How did you prepare to re-enter the world of kids?
VANESSA VANDERSTAATEN: There wasn’t much preparation needed as I was really looking forward to playing Min Yi again and rejoining the cast. What I actually did was get myself acquainted with the storyline, like where the character was heading, and the kind of journey she was going to take. Sorry but I can't reveal too much!
Do you remember your first day on the set of Season 1?
It was fun! My first day on Lion Mums was with Nurul [Aini] and a shopping cart, I think. I remember us pushing each other around like kids in between takes (laughs).
And how did your first day on Season Two go?
We finished Season 1 in 2015, and we waited two years to do the show again, so it felt like, “Finally! It’s happening!” I was very excited to be back with the cast and crew.
How much have you changed as a person since Season One?
I've gotten a lot more patient, but whether or not it has to do with working with children, I don't know. I've become more mature on the whole as well, watching my friends become mothers themselves. As a result, the stories in Lion Mums resonate even more with me this time around.
What are your most memorable moments from filming Season Two?
