Angelica Panganiban engaged to Derek Ramsey

IS IT TRUE Angelica Panganiban is now officially engaged to Derek Ramsay and they plan to tie the knot this year? “No, yung ganyan, di naming isesekreto,” she says at the presscon of “Bulong”. “Kung may engagement ring na ko, di ko itatago, lalo’t sobrang laki ng bato, pagmamalaki ko sa inyo. We’re not in a hurry naman. Pero pag nainip na ko, baka ako pang magyaya sa kanya. Basta as of now, we’re both sure na gusto namin, kami na talaga. He’s very caring. Just recently, he shouldered the expenses for my eye operation. Kasi sobrang labo na mata ko, now 20-20 na uli ang vision ko.”

Is she prepared to patch things up with Claudine Barretto who threatened to sue her last year? “Oo naman. It’s 2011, time for forgiving na. At ang dami kong blessings na natatanggap so I don’t want any negative vibes in my life. Gusto ko, masaya na lang ang lahat and I’m sure, yun din ang gusto niya. Hopefully, soon, magkausap na kami para maayos na ang lahat.”

How is it working with Vhong Navarro in “Bulong”? “Masaya siyang katrabaho kasi makuwento, machika, nakakaaliw. Nagpapabili lagi ng food kasama na pati ang staff and crew.”

Does she find me handsome? “Minsan, may anggulo,” she laughs. Does she find him yummy? “Siguro. Baka after Derek, siya na,” she laughs again. “But I really enjoyed working with him at maganda rin ang role ko in ‘Bulong’ kasi may ari ako ng parlor called MOM sa araw and sa gabi, binabaligtad yung sign, nagiging club named WOW. Fake manghuhula rin ako rito.”

Her last movie, “Here Comes the Bride”, is also a comedy. She always won the best comedy actress award for “Banana Split”. Doesn’t she miss doing drama? “I do. Sana nga, magka-movie kami ni Derek na drama at kaming dalawa lang.”
