The Miss World 2013 was welcomed by select GMA reporters and executives, including GMA Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Atty. Felipe L. Gozon, GMA Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer Felipe S. Yalong, GMA Senior Vice President for Entertainment Group Lilybeth G. Rasonable and GMA SAVP for Alternative Productions and Entertainment TV Gigi Santiago-Lara.

Megan's manager, Arnold Vegafria, was also present at the contract signing.

The 28-year-old actress, who made her showbiz debut at the age of 14 by joining the second season of StarStruck, said in the interview that it feels nice to be with where she started.

"Dito ko nagsimula so it's nice to be here again with my family."

Following the success of the afternoon drama series The Stepdaughters, Megan admitted that she wants to do something different this year.

She said, "Last year, naging busy talaga kami sa The Stepdaughters, so I'm very thankful na GMA gave us a show na we could really show our talents or improved our talents.

"So this year, I'm looking forward to do something different kasi last year intense na labanan, intense na afternoon soap, so I don't mind doing another afternoon series kasi nag-enjoy ako.

"But I'm also looking forward to do hosting jobs this year so sana it's in their plans to have a hosting show.

"I game for that and I game for whatever they have for me," she noted.

Megan also shared that it's her dream to star in a romantic comedy because of her love for Koreanovelas.

She recounted, "Alam mo gusto ko talaga 'yung mga rom-com, as in hilig ko talaga 'yung mga Koreanovela.

"That's kinda my dream. I know other people aspire for heavy roles, 'yung mga award-winning, ako, I love the lightness and endearing moments of Koreanovelas.

"I love happy stories, I haven't done anything like that," Megan ended.
