Love struck

Impostora. Playing a love struck teenager, Charee will do everything to fight for her love. Text by Loretta G. Ramirez. Photos by Mitch S. Mauricio. Playing Trisha Alvarado in the primetime show Impostora, Charee Pineda gives us a fresh take of a girl in love who is willing to do anything for the man she cares for, even if it means turning her back on her family. Sweet and in love Falling in love for the first time is always a memorable feeling, and often we make decisions and choices that we may sometimes regret. These are the typical pitfalls of young love and Trisha is not exempted from this situation. Although her character was first introduced as a sweet and innocent teen, she evolved into a feisty and irrational girl who will do everything for the sake of her love. Portraying a young lady torn between her feelings for Yago (Mart Escudero) and her affection for her sister (Ana Roces), Charee describes her role as girl who blindly acts for the sake of her love. “Ako 'yung girlfriend ni Yago na sobrang in love sa kanya, (at) in love din naman siya sa akin. 'Yung ate ko galit sa kanya kasi playboy siya. Kaya ako, gagawin ko 'yung lahat para mag-survive 'yung relationship namin, kahit na tumakas ako sa ate ko, basta lahat gagawin ko para sa amin.” Love struck Playing this role may seem easy for Charee to portray since she knows what young love must feel. Coming from a three-year-relationship with another actor, she admits that she can identify with the role of Trisha. “Naging boyfriend ko siya, 14 pa lang ako. Marami din po ang parang nagsasabi sa akin na i-stop muna (ang relationship),” shares Charee. She also confesses that she was the one who put an end to their relationship and decided that they will better off as friends instead. “Pero matagal na rin po kaming may problem, parang naging formal lang po siya. Parang naging official lang siya. Siguro po nagkasawaan na rin. Pero nagte-text pa rin naman kami kasi naging close na rin naman po ‘'yung family niya sa family ko.” Now concentrating on reviving her career in acting, Charee gives her best in convincing everybody that she may be a love struck girl, but this does not mean that she doesn’t have a beautiful and sensible head atop her beautiful shoulders.
