At the taping of Sarap Diva, GMANetwork.com got to chat with gorgeous Kapuso actress, LJ Reyes. The Starstruck Batch 2 alumna talked about her experiences in shooting for her latest cover for a men’s magazine. She also shared her thoughts on the kind of roles she would be willing to portray in the future.

Posing for FHM for the second time around, we asked LJ how different her February 2013 cover is from her previous one. “Ibang iba talaga siya sa unang cover ko. Dati kasi first time pa lang, tapos bata pa ako. Mas nag-mature na ako ngayon,” shares the sexy actress.

She also noted that she has become more daring and has gained more confidence for her second shoot with the said men’s magazine. “Mas confident ako, siyempre dahil yung mga nakatrabaho ko, sila din yung nakasama ko nung first shoot ko. Sobrang comfortable ko with them.”

LJ was also asked if she feels any pressure, since Marian Rivera posed on the cover of the same magazine last month, and set a record of having the most attended autograph signing event in the magazine's history. According to LJ, “Oo, mabigat talaga, pero happy naman ako sa photos kasi maganda ang kinalabasan.”

When it comes to accepting future roles, LJ states that though she is more open now, she still has some limitations. “Mas comfortable lang ako mag take off ng clothes but it doesn’t mean na karamihan ng mga gagawin o tatanggapin ko ay doon iikot. I’m willing to do sexy scenes, pero may limitations parin. As long as makakatulong sa pelikula, then why not, di ba? Pero kung hindi naman kailangan, huwag na lang.”

As LJ’s star continues to rise, she makes sure that she is in control of her career. “Humihingi ako ng advice doon sa mga taong importante sa akin, pero ang last decision ay laging nasa akin.” -- Samantha Portillo, GMANetwork.com
