“Sexy comedy [‘to] pero hindi ako sexy. Siguro feeling ko kaya ako ang kinuha kasi kung sexy kinuha, malaswa. Eh ako, kahit maglabas ako ng hita ko [okay lang],” she quipped.
 
Although she’s more used to drama, she looks forward to how this project will turn out.
 
“My first love is drama [pero for this show], siyempre si Direk Randy [Santiago na] bahala sa ‘kin diyan. Kung ano ipagawa niya sa ‘kin, gagawin ko lang,” she said.
 
She also admitted to feeling a bit of pressure because she has to juggle two contrasting roles – the cunning Stella in the afternoon drama The Millionaire’s Wife and the frustrated beauty queen Digna in the evening sitcom A1 Ko Sa’yo.
 
“Itong comedy na ‘to, I have to work on it. Trabahuhin ko kasi [I’m doing] The Millionaire’s Wife. Sobrang evil [ko dun eh]… Pero sana maging happy kayo [dito]. Sana matuwa ang lahat,” she told the press.
