WE WERE there when Carla Abellana was first introduced to the press three years ago and she said then she’ll not go sexy. But now, she plays a very daring role as an unfaithful wife in “My Neighbor’s Wife”. “It’s true, when I joined showbiz, I said I won’t do torrid kissing scenes at hindi ako magbibikini,” she says. “Pero heto, ngayon, ginawa ko. When the shooting started, wala naman sinabi sa’kin si Direk Jun Lana that I’ll be made to do such scenes. But in the course of the shooting, I was pushed to the limits. The biggest challenge here for me is Lovi Poe. Kasi all out siya sa sexy scenes niya so I felt obligated na pantayan yung ginagawa niya kasi kung hindi, ano na lang ang mangyayari sa’kin sa movie? Mapag-iiwanan ako. The first time I did a love scene with Dennis Trillo, grabe ang kaba ko. But I have to thank Dennis kasi magaling siya magdala ng eksena. He can make the scene appear really sensual. Ganun din si Jake Cuenca, mahusay in doing bedscenes.”
Will she make real life BF Geoff Eigenmann watch these daring scenes? “Kinuwento ko sa kanya ang mga eksenang ginawa ko and he understands this is part of my job naman, but he’s the one who decided na hindi na lang niya panonoorin. He gave me naman the liberty to do such scenes, in the same way na I allow him din naman to also do such scenes dahil actor din siya.”
