Nalalapit na ang pagdiriwang ni Liza Soberano ng kanyang 18th birthday. Hindi raw magkakaroon ng engrandeng selebrasyon ang dalaga at sa halip ay magkakaroon ng mga charity event sa Amerika kasama ng pamilya. “Ayoko po talaga, nervous po ako ‘pag maraming tao. ‘Di po ako kumportable, ‘yung mga ball gowns and everything. So I’d rather keep it simple at nasa comfort zone ko kasi birthday ko. I should enjoy, ayokong ma-stress ako sa debut ko,” paliwanag ni Liza.
Apat na charity events ang pinaplanong idaos ng aktres sa kanyang kaarawan sa January 4. “Apat kasi January 4 ‘yung birthday ko po. Then siguro intimate party lang,” dagdag ni Liza.
Abala ngayon ang dalaga sa shooting ng pelikula nila nina Enrique Gil at Gerald Anderson. Bukod dito ay pinaghahandaan na rin ni Liza ang proyektong para sa mga kabataan na ‘Camp Courage’. “Gusto ko parang Emma Watson. I believe I was born to make a difference talaga, and like to help people especially the young ones. Because those are the ones who needs guidance,” nakangiting pahayag ni Liza.
Billy suportado ang patungan nina Derek at Coleen
Maraming maiinit na eksena sina Coleen Garcia at Derek Ramsay sa pelikulang Ex With Benefits. Ayon sa aktres ay hindi naman pinagselosan ng kasintahang si Billy Crawford si Derek sa mga eksena. “At the end of the day I’m with someone who’s older than me. Plus he’s been through a lot also with his life, he’s been through so many things. He’s been in showbiz for 29 years already. I’ve been here for just a few years so he understands that I also need a space to grow. He understands that I need the space to find who I am in this industry. So he’s giving me that space and I couldn’t be any more thankful. Kasi honestly ako, kung iisipin ko, kung siya gagawa ng role na gano’n magseselos talaga ako. I’ll be concerned pero siya talaga, he puts that all aside,” pahayag ni Coleen.
“I’m not saying that he never felt anything, that he never felt jealous, he never felt hesitant, but he put it all aside so that I could be able to do this because he knows I have challenges myself and he tries his best not to add to it,” dagdag pa niya.
Magkaibigan sa totoong buhay sina Billy at Derek kaya malaki ang tiwala ng kasintahan ni Coleen sa huli. “They know each other so kampante siya and he knows naman how professional Derek is. He trusts me also because I will never go over the top so he trusts the decisions I make. That I will not make any bad decisions. Siyempre he’s nervous also with the outcome. He’s so supportive and I could never ask for more from him because he has been so supportive. Pati nga ‘yung poster pino-post eh so nakakagulat din at the same time,” pagtatapos ni Coleen.
