Kim, willing to work with Bea and Gerald

“THE BABY IS now a woman” is how ABS PR Aaron Domingo introduced Kim Chiu when she was launched in “Your Song”. She’ll be doing 13 episodes starting December 12 until Valentine’s Day. She’ll also appear in “Wansapanataym” as a superhero. “I want to thank ABS for this chance to do 13 different stories with comedy, drama, fantasy, and with different directors and co-stars,” says Kim. “It’ll really be challenging.” She hasn’t taped anything yet but she already requested stars she’d like to work with (Sam Milby, Rayver Cruz, Ejay Falcon, Enchong Dee) and roles she’d like to do (a mermaid, a tomboy, a taong graza, masungit na fashionista ala-Devil Wears Prada). Will she work with Bea Alonzo as guest after Bea was linked to Gerald Anderson? “Why not? Trabaho lang naman yun.” What about Gerald himself? “Okay lang, kung kaya ba ng schedule niya. But I’d prefer to do comedy with him rather than drama.” Since this is “Your Song”, what will be her theme song? “I can’t think of any.” Many suggestions were given: “Babalik Ka Rin”, “Kung Maibabalik Ko Lang”, “I Remember the Boy”, “I Will Survive”. “O sige, may naisip na ko,” she laughs. “’It’s a Wonderful World’.” What really caused her breakup with Gerald? “Balato nyo na lang sa’min ni Gerald kung ano ang nangyari. Wag na nating pag-usapan kasi tapos na yan. Okay na naman kami so let the issue rest.”

What about the offer to do a movie with Jackie Chan? “I’m not sure.” Her handler, Allan, said it’s under negotiation. “Nothing is final.” Is she really planning to have a vacation in the States come Christmas Day? “Yes, but only in Asia, somewhere na may snow. Ako lang mag-isa. Walang alalay. Makakaya ko yan. I think it’s time for me to grow and be independent.”
