Funny girl Gwen Zamora transforms to glamorous Alejandra in 'Innamorata'


The transition from Bubble Gang to Innamorata became an outright test to the beautiful Kapuso star, Gwen Zamora. For her it took time and effort to transform herself to Alejandra’s [Gwen’s character in Innamorata].

According to Gwen, it was challenging yet fun to bend her character. Gwen shared, “I've been working on my posture and how I talk. Because normally when I talk, my hands are all over the place. And I talk very animated. With my character now, she's demure. That's why I'm sitting straight right now.”

Gwen also gushed about Alejandra’s costume in Innamorata. Alejandra comes to life through an old painting so her only garb is what's seen in the portrait, unlike her co-stars who goes through a number of costume changes.

She shared, “well I've been wearing one dress the whole time. I didn't get to bring clothes which is amazing. Costume was great!”

“With costumes like that, you cannot afford to slouch. It is well-structured,” she added.

The beginning of Innamorata required Gwen to deliver only a few lines. She jested, “it's all eye contact. I scream 'babalik ako, nagkakamali ka, at maligayang pagdating, Esperanza. Those were my only lines”.
